Hello afn!


Just got done with a 12 hour day at work....only 4 more to go!

Morning @Cannaficionado ...sounds like a Long day.........

One thing I do not miss, is the days of having to get snow tires put on and taken off every year. Rear wheel drive full time sucks in the north.

Tell me about it.

Didnt see this till now, but Im saving up for a set of winter tires and wheels. Trying to avoid getting steelies, but may have to. Cheapest decent set of wheels and tires is like 1800 mounted, balanced, and with tpms

Worth it though. Trying to get as much overtime as possible before there is none. Need tires for winter, and like I was saying the other day, if I can afford it I want a spare set of wheels so I can just swap out winter and summer tires when needed. If I can manage it I also wanna get a 4x4 tent and pack up my 3x3. I like it but it gets cramped fast, but thats not a necessity right now.

Doesn't cost anymore to buy one then build one anymore

I wound up spending $235 on parts for my DIY press, using an old jack I had from when I leveled my house. A ready-made press frame could be cheaper. The electronic heat controls are made according to @Mañ'O'Green's instructions:

3/8" steel, 1" aluminum	$83.07	metalsupermarket
threaded rod, 5/8-18, gr. B7	$32.65	eBay
hex nuts, 5/8-18	$25.69	eBay
cartridge heat elements	$22.32	eBay
PID temperature controls	$29.82	eBay
relays, thermocouples	$29.08	eBay
rocker switch	$8.06	Home Depot
strain relief x2	$5.02	Home Depot
project box	$0.00	old piece of duct
20T jack	$0.00	my basement

TOTAL:	$235.71
