  1. When you do the stock, do it right and put a good 4 layers of poly on it and make sure it cures for a good 24 in a controlled room like your basement or something. I built a stool from steel and used white ash for the top and I think I used 3 coats of stain and 4 or 5 layers of poly on it and the top looks as smooth as glass now
  2. IDK anymore man, Fluke is supposed to be top shelf and My dad still has his from 20+ years ago and it works like a champ still to this day. A guy I work with bought a brand new Fluke this summer and again, brand new out of the package, the leads were reading 0.3 ohms. Maybe he just got a bad unit (we were in Pheonix AZ when he got it. Can't really take it back lol) My Klein CL2000 and Gardener Bender have taken a beating since I've gotten them and both of them still read 0.0 ohms
  3. I use the same one. The only downfall, is either I havent figured out how to use it or it does not have a peak hold option. I think I paid like $136ish for mine at my local Home Depot when i got it. Here's what I found: MANUAL
  4. Klein True RMS CL2000 what I use for work, works well for my purposes.
  5. ummmm.... make one? use a couple of 7805's from radioshit i mean shack and I think they can supply 1A IIRC when properly heat-sinked. Double check though.
  6. I already told her flat out that I will never replace her alternator unless it DIES and even then I will have someone else do it for me since I do not have the space nor the tools to do it.
  7. Just some tools and the cargo area where the subs will go Shitty POS Boss HU that I put in for her because her old one ate CD's and had to go. Was better than nothing but I knew it would have to go. That is all for right now, waiting for the new HU to come in and also waiting for more time this weekend.
  8. Stolen camera = ban hamma from hell. Awesome concept, hope it works out and makes it up here to Michigan before its filled.
  9. Ok good. I tore apart a power acoustic that was insta-protect on power up and there was the bare minimum on that thing. Fixed it up put new paste on and let my buddy hook it up. Didn't watch cuz I thought he knew what he was doing and loaded one channel with 1 ohm. Smoked in less than 5 minutes.
  10. Did you guys make sure to use that white paste/goop stuff on the MOSFETs when you put it back together and mounted it back to the heatsink? I know its expensive but can't for the life of me remember what its called.
  11. There is no way you would ever be able to fit a 4th order for 4 12's in your Passat's trunk.
  12. She's going to be getting my old equipment with a few exceptions. Then we'll see what happens. I figure it'll go one of 3 ways: 1)She hates it and I have to pull everything, 2) she loves it and I plan on always being broke due to upgrades to both our cars, and hopefully 3) she likes it and leaves it alone for a while.
  13. More to come a little later. This is not going to be a huge continued build like my Malibu... for now at least.
  14. This was with a different phone, but fuck that, they do the same shit with my wife and we told them we did a system restore on the first one she had because they were convinced it was an app. Nothing changed, so we made them replace the phone (it was within the first 14 days of her having it). a couple months later she starts having problems with her phone again out of the blue, no new apps, no app updates, we went in to tell them she needs a new phone, not another of the same kind, and they started acting a little shitty at first but they could tell I was not going to accept a refurb, so they cut us a deal for her to upgrade only 6 months into her contract for a new phone at contract cost as long as she got the accessory pack. just go in there and give them shit about it since it's clearly NOT working right and you'll get a replacement. First time I did it I found it pretty easy to do over the phone.
  15. Sounds like the sound you get on an old TV when a capacitor starts to go.
  16. However, its a refurb, and I wouldn't recommend buying a refurb tablet. hence the good price lol.
  17. http://www.woot.com/ has a 16Gb Samsung Galaxy 10.1 for $320 today.
  18. Or did the remote maybe catch one of the RCA's? I mean, they are all live, so touching one another might have been shorting it out. You would think it would shut the whole HU off though
  19. mee too. buddy has one and tried to shoot skeet with it a while back lol. hit 1 out of 20 or so hahhahahahaha
  20. Oh yeah, and home protection with 12 gauge loaded in this firing order also works: bird shot, buck shot, slug. End game for any burglar/psycopath that stays after you rack it.
