This is where some idiots on youtube messages will say 'Ahh you pulled all that wood! You suck!'

Firefighting be like:

Yeah. When you advertise free drugs or low enforcement, you tend to drag all that type of folk from a long distance away. Add in some unscrupulous bussing by some slimy mayors, and it can get ugly fast.

True, but unlike Muriatic acid, we use the caustic soda to keep the pipes clean, so often have it around. And cleaning it is simply washing it in the sink.

True, but bear in mind that unlike neutralizing acids, neutralizing a base this way is an exothermic reaction, and sometimes a rather energetic one.

So how is everybody? I recently got a job in an industrial kitchen doing stock and cleaning up as a night porter. So no customer interaction as it's in a warehouse area. And geziz the food does not look like it's good for ya :) Otherwise, nuttin new. Still porting saws on the side and trying to...

It's like with everything and everywhere and everyone. Things are always better in a different time. People are always different in different places. Kids were always better behaved when we were younger, etc etc. Well, let me tell you, people were all kinds of stupid all the time, and this time...

Check this out, tho. This is the guy who saved those kids and that woman from some crazy stabby Algerian yesterday. It made the news and the donations started pouring in. The guy was working for deliveroo, saw the knife guy, hopped off his bike and bludgeoned him with his helmet until he was...

It's worse than they are showing. We got plenty of fentanyl and heroin et al here. :( Our police are very tame by American standards. So riots get out of hand very quickly. They have no rubber bullets, rarely use pepper spray, and definitely none of that badass water cannon stuff like they have...

Nah, the piston scraped it right off. Which explains why it never locked up.

The other jug was so bad, when I put Naoh into it, it started to flake off the nikasil as it ate away the exposed al in the cylinder. :( I ordered a new motor from the states.

What a super cool logging camp Bjarne is at now:

And geziz what am I thinking handling it without gloves!

I hadn't realized I had missed a step in the NAOH process. This shoulda been the third photo: That's like the third application. You can see the nikasil on the top of the cylinder is nice and clean by now. It's very easy to tell what is nikasil and what is Aluminum transfer because this stuff...

It's just less toxic than handling HCL. Unlike acid, which will dissolve most anything it touches, especially your clothes, this won't pit any metal other than aluminum(which it aggressively dissolves). So you can leave it in the cylinder as long as you like and it won't touch the nikasil or...

So, I didn't have any sodium hydroxide, but you know what? My local hardware sure did. Supa strength!(sawfun's nickname in highschool, BTW) From this: To this: To this: That's right, sodium hydroxide ported my exhaust while it was cleaning the cylinder. And here's sumfin ya don't see...

So... after a lot of struggle, I have this 361WES apart(AKA Echo 355P/360P, the handle version of the 355T). If someone plops a 355T in front of you, tell them no. Anywho, it appears to have been straight gassed. I am gonna try to restore it since it appears to mainly be aluminum transfer...

Forgot to show the tool in action. My old dewalt brushed impact isn't the most powerful impact out there, but when you work on saws, ya really don't want a super powerful impact driver. It's so easy to **** **** up. Even though this is a clutch, I still am used to babying it when I use an impact...

Hell, we're lucky if we can even find the OEM sometimes, let alone cheap stuff. We can always go to the continent, but paying 15 euro shipping on a 15 euro tool and waiting a week or more is a bit rough. This is actually the first one of these I have had to make since we're a Stihl shop, and...
