I went over the top in my Garage. 16 13 amp sockets, 4 USB 1.8 amp sockets, 2 19 amp commando sockets for quick jacks and a n other. 4 individually switched 30 W LED flood lights.

Never going to need them all but you can never have enough power. All gone in to a power distribution board

I’ve just remembered I have an American Power Conversion Infrastructure Manager I could manage all the UPS from * (4 Smartups in the house, 1 in the garage and 1 destined for the Den - Man cave Brit lingo) Fiber run too.

Didn’t buy any of this except the UPS. It fell into my boot when I got made redundant once...

I should make it a little clearer. I like soldiering water lines together. I learned to soldier when I worked for Fruehauf way back in the day. One project I did, had over 3,000 soldier joints. I only had a handful that I had to redo.

Chit piping, if new doesn't bother me. Redoing old lines does.

At Elliott. I did pipe fitting there. I did some pipe fitting at the power plant too.

Installed a ceiling fan today - because it reminds me of strips of bacon.

I just love waking up and staring up in the air and seeing whirling pieces of pork over me... of course, I mean the fan blades...

Why does no one ever listen to the guys in the fvcking field? I've told all these aholes repeatedly. If they keep building these bins like this people will get hurt or worse. But fvck it, save the cost of 12,000 feet of rebar is more important than disposable people

I'm putting myself on permanent light duty. They can all kiss my azz

Feel bad for you. It's scary when you have something repaired and turn around and injury it again. Ever since I pull the muscle off the bone in my arm. I've been careful on how much I lift with with it. I don't want a repeat of being laid up for 6 months again. Get that shoulder checked out ASP. You don't want to do anymore damage to it.

When they do your scheduled lobotomy. They will be slicing through pork belly.

Scary is a mild term for it. That was bad the first time. I'm dreading another 3 months of that chit.

Pex and Sharkbites for idiots.

I've welded plastic pipe together. I learned on the fly on that method at the power plant. You had one shot to get it right from the get go. You screwed a joint up. You was in trouble. Had to replace 2,000ft of 1" carbon steel acid line with 1" special plastic line that cost $37.00 a foot.

Chicken is also great sous vide... lamb not so good when you stick it in for 18 hours and then find out the bag split. Lamb stewed in water for that long smells like dog ****

Unseasoned pork in the sous vide comes out a little off

My brother went through 3 rotatory cuff surgeries. Had both shoulders done. Then a couple of years later. Had to redo the one shoulder again because he torn it again.
