Try the thinnest giutar sting you can find & a couple wood dowel rods to hold it, might be easier.

Anyone know if its ok for salt mix to freeze? Lol furnace went out in the garage all night. My LR was cooking in there too, the water appears to still be at 74 which is a bit chilly but survivable

They look like Picassos. When you breed a batch of designer Clowns you get all sorts of funky ones, looks like this breeder is labeling some of the funky ones. They are cute.

My New Years res is going to be simple.......D.T.A. ( don't trust anyone........ever again)!!

No people just need to be honest & pay what they owe when they say they will...........but that's just asking to much out of humanity I guess.

Myka 12-31-2012 03:14 AM

I would expect to pay half up front, and half on delivery. That would at least protect your butt a bit, no?

That is want is the norm but I thought I could trust this person as I have bought frags from him & paid immediately.

rhody605 12-31-2012 03:40 AM

After all the good I read you do grizz it really sucks to hear someone did that.

Not everyone, but how do you tell....

lockrookie 12-31-2012 04:44 AM

Dude I would never expect anything from anyone without me paying first. I get nervous that they don't ship but so far so good. I freaked out when skimmer king shipped me some awesome rock pieces for my 180. I told him I was broke at the time and not to shop till I had money but the bugger didnt listen and shipped it anyways.. He got paid as soon as I had cash in hand cause I couldn't sleep worrying about it

Good luck buddy. That's a shame. You go out of your way for someone the least they can do is hold their end. Not a good way to start of the new year...

Only 36 more hours till I can get in to a dentist to figure out WTF is going on with my tooth. Holy frick does it hurt. Up at 7 as the Advil has worn off, can only get 4 hours relief at a time........

Try using some clove oil. Use a Qtip and rub it around the sore tooth. That might help you a bit.

Finally in to see dentist, looks like an issue from having my wisdom teeth out 10 years ago. He thinks when it healed it left a pocket beside my molar and I have severe bone loss. Gave me prescription pain meds 2 different kinds and 2 antibiotics and have to see a specialist, will likely lose the tooth. :sad:

past the solenoid everything appeared to be working ok, heh funny thing is i was just going to test parameters tonight to make sure it was dialled in properly after ignoring testing all week.I just hope i get it sorted out before going back to work NEXT monday heh.

<edit> what is this little brass piece i found on the floor a few days ago with an o'ring on both sides, funny i see it sitting here beside the computer while typing this post.. i wonder.....

<second edit> GRRRRRRRRRRRRR:2gunfire:



Almost a week later there is still c02 comming out. the low presure gauge has stayed rock solid. so either the High pressure gauge is blown or I dont know. I thought CO2 should read a high pressure untill all the liquid co2 de pressurizes then quickly drop in pressure to nothing?

the tank feels lighter than it did full, but who knows..

gregzz4 01-05-2013 06:38 PM

Try soap testing you gauges and hoses etc

Why doesn't this thread have a sticky
 
A telemarketer called this evening. I handed the phone to my daughter telling her it was Santa wanting to know what toys she wanted next Christmas. After 3-4 minutes of her rambling on she said there was nobody there. Haha. I wonder if they will call again. After all Easter is coming

:lol: Good one

Every day or 2 we were getting 1-800 calls for my wife and they wouldn't tell me what it's about, just would hang up
The last time they called I asked "who?"
After they asked again I said "sorry, wrong number"
They haven't called back in weeks

My Triggers new favourite toy is a koralia 4 powerhead :twised:
