Well I got bored watching everybody elses so I made a boring one. Well I guess I should say I was procrastinating, not actually bored.

NOT a boring video at all! Love the snap on stuff, definitely the torque wrenches. That is something you DON'T want to cheap out on. 24 years ago when I started my mechanics apprenticeship I started with Craftsman stuff and when i went to snap on wrenches my knuckles more than thanked me. Craftsman, Ultrapro and the others have gotten better over the years but I still like my Snap on.

Congrats on tieing the knot! I remember when my wife and I were newlyweds. She would help repair the broken stuff under the manure trucks. We don't have the #%&$ hauling business any more and there isn't as much help on the gross stuff. Can't figure it out, I'm the same jerk I always was. :)

Snap On is nice but I honestly can say that I get a lot bigger smile on my face with my German tools. I love my shiny snapon wrenches though, very comfy.

The only reason I got the Techwrenches was due to the Techangle models that allow you to do TTY bolts digitally versus with a gauge. It cut my Torquing time on Duramax heads down by nearly 3 times.

I like that it shows you what you actually apply for torque but I much prefer the split beam wrenches for fast work. Something about feelong a click. The split beams are tough too and the battery cap doesnt come off in the middle of torque something and cause you to overtorque something. Especially with TTY bolts, I mark every singlw one now ao I can at least visually measure how far its turned incase that happens. They had an update that reinforcea the end and now the capa dont come out as easy.


She doesnt help on the manure equipment but she helps out on some othee thinfs once and awhile.
 
Congrats on the nuptials.

Nice tools and tool box too!
 
Congrats on getting married. Not to be rude or anything but in the pic of you two it appears that her top has fallen a bit causing a wardrobe malfunction, ?

Haha nope not rude. Her dlotation devices are a task to keep in place. They were far from coming out though, it may have fallen some or maybe we hit a bump when they took the picture i dk haha. Surprisingly they never fell out all night.

And now I see what you mean by the true malfunction, the dark area is a shadow from her bustier. It sometimes peeked out.
 
Congrats Vinny :props:

Will check out the vid when I get back to high speed internet at the house.

Well couple weeks into being married and we got a nice big wrench thrown at us. On September 3rd I went into the ER with crippling lower back pain and leg cramps/numbness. After some MRIs they found a large tumor on my L2,L3, and L4 vertabrae. After some CT scans theh found a few more scatteres throughout my body and a lot of swollen lymph nodes. The biopsy revealed it was Hodgkins Lymphoma. A type of blood cancer that spreads rapidly. Mine was classified as stage 4 due to the amount of my bodg covered with it.

So we got to spend our 3rd week of marraige in the hospital along eith my birthday as well. I now have chemo for 6 months and the success rate for Hodgkins is very high so I am not too worried at this point.

Sorry to hear this. Hope the treatment works out for you.

Since you farm, check out what chemicals are being used. As soon as I saw this, visions of Agent Orange came to me.
 
Good luck. It sounds like you will be fine, but this is the last thing you need I'm sure.
 
Im not exposed to many. Agent orange was long gone before my time.

Thanks.
