    Helmet sizing

    Like mentioned above head Shape is really important. I've used the lidpicker site and purchased their kit for measuring. You can get away without it but it made it easier measuring solo. They certainly don't have every, or even most, helmet in their database but it helps. I also shop at...

    SuperTech still decent oil?

    Same story here. I went out to the mailbox yesterday and found a "Walmart" bag on the front porch with the oil, just one jug, and a roll of paper towels. Hasn't even shown as shipped on eBay. I wondered how he was selling for less than the Walmart price. Works for me!

    Dremel Collets

    I tend to replace my Dremel chucks with these "universal" types. I don't think I have any 5/32" bits but I recall they open larger than my 1/8" bits easily.

You won't need to reinstall your operating system or clone the existing drive to a new one. Apparently, you have two Optical drives and one is currently "D:". If you...

    Test lights for checking a circuit under load

    Like stated above, I seem to recall he did a video, at least one, where he showed how he created these test lamps. I believe he even drilled a hole into the cap of a spray can to run the wires/lamp base in to sort of protecting the "bulb" glass on some of them.

    2021 Verizon 200 at IMS road course

    After the races, I just look at the 30-minute recap on the Indy Car YouTube channel. The entire race is distilled down to important parts. (y)

    T-Mobile HOME Internet Service

    I thought I'd check: Sorry, we’re not available in your area just yet. Oh well, I tried to dump Comcast/Xfinity

    Cooling fan inop, motor brushes sticking.

    I'd also check for burrs or any kind of build up in the actual (brass) housing.

    Bought Harbor Freight's Backpack Sprayer This Past Weekend

    There are also containers "Horticultural" vinegar specifically for garden use. I've seen 20% acidity, normal white vinegar is 4 to 7% per bottle, and heard of 30%. Even though it's Just vinegar it's still an acid and at 20-30% should be at least respected as such. So much depends on the variety...
