  2. So ya i found this...

    in Off Topic - Random, Misc posts - the forum "Junk Drawer"

    so ya i stumbled upon a autographed drum set. After a little research and some pictures, it seems to be Vinny Appices' Autograph from Black Sabbath.

    Now for one, i dont know crap about drums, but its in decent shape. He even dated it to '88, so for 22 years of storage i dont consider it bad. Im assuming it was played some, but i dont know, it was a gift to me, so im going to clean it, and see what i could get off it.

    it is a Tama Drum

    I have the full set, just got some much cleaning to do before i can assemble anything. Snare drum is in nice condition just has pollen all over it.

    Well anyways the reason for this post is for more info on it, what you think i could get for it, etc. I didnt know where else to post this, not really a "music instrument" thread on here for bandheads.

    But ya i was skeptical on the signature, so after a little google research i found these autographed items from vinny, and seems legit to me.

    Time this has been going on.

    Just noticed... I had a small radiator leak for like a year'ish. I mean like add some fluid once a month kind a deal, not anything extreme. Changed my oil and noticed a small bit of fluid rollin down the oil pan. Now this is what i see today when i checked it.

    Any input appreciated. I know i probly shoulda taken the truck to the shop when i saw the tiny leak. So no need to bash that point. Just need a fix for my present situation. Thanks in advance.

    And for the wonderful bit of oil everywhere. That was from my trip to Vermont from NC. I dunno what happend. I just know oil was everywhere, firewall and all. Took it to the shop, cleaned it up, oil change, and was fine every since. Mountains maybe? lol..

    If your going for an enclosure under your seats, something like those arent bad. Dont expect miracles, but i heard some setups that had some nice punchy bass for a sealed enclosure that small. Or just raise the seats and pop some better 10's in there.

    I wouldnt suggest raising imo. I raised my seats in my 99 f150 ext, ya i know its not crew cab, but just saying, was annoying for people in the back hitting their heads on the ceiling....got too happy raising it.. When all else fails, do a blow threw :) ...jpjp ... but seriously.

    not to mention that adding the actuators would be ... difficult imo cause with them on the clutch shifters etc.. how you gonna drive that thing? posses limitations. Im not saying it couldnt be done. Possabilities are endless these days. pretty soon people will be stealing cars from hacking bluetooth devices controlling them from a computer at some cyber cafe down the road, go outside, and get in the car that just drove to them. :P

    cant really help much on the pc booting issue, as it could be a bunch of issues.

    But that is one sickasmofo'intruck. :)

    But as for a list of things that could be wrong.

    - cpu is overheating, check cpu fan, clean out any dust. (not usually an issue but just sayin..)

    - check Hard drive. ( before it hangs, do you hear clicking or skipping of any type )

    - check all connections for the power & connection to motherboard.

    i dunno, just a few off the top, more info as to what it does when it hangs or when it... just doesnt do anything. Distinctive sound, no sound, acting like it has no power.. . etc.. Could be a faulty power supply. I had one that ran when it felt like it, was some cheap 400w that i got a while back.

    anyways, gl.

  18. How Much To Charge For Installation?

    in Off Topic - Random, Misc posts - the forum "Junk Drawer"

    Posted

    I usually charge $40, mainly if they have the stuff, know what they needed etc. $60+materials if they dont know anything about audio, and choose to have me run and get the supplies.

    But for my homies i never charge. I mean i see it like this. Some dude i see or my bro or something needs something installed. I figure i hook them up, it works well, sounds good, that points on me. They know someone who knows someone that needs something installed, my name gets popped in "well my bro ..... installed mine, craps knockin, come here it..etc..etc.." then the money comes to me. I dont charge friends unless they need a whole box built or something, then they throw me gas+materials$$

  24. How Many People Have Hade To Stop Driving There Regular Daily Vehicle Because Of Gas Prices?

    in Off Topic - Random, Misc posts - the forum "Junk Drawer"

    Posted · Edited by TrippiN

    Running me about 80-100 a week in my f150. Soon as its payed off.. (4 more payments :P) then getting something... more.. effitient. I will still drive my truck just cause i love it, but need the car when the miles are needed.+

    Gas is 3.98 here in NC right now, its not really bad imo, i mean i been paying over $4 for a while since i use 89, but.. i guess it wont be too much of a headache till its at $5. Then.. its bicycle time.
