I would think that "5 or more skids" would include the "over 10" and "over 20" figures. But, hey, that's just me. Slow and steady, even in expediting, wins the race - Aesop

This stuff works great. http://www.sparkleauto.com/odor_foggers.html That place is a car detailing supply place, mainly. They carry the entire line of Sprayway products. I use many Sprayway products. The adhesive remover, for example, is great for removing the residue from vinyl lettering, and...

You posted that under my reply, in response to my message, so I'm not sure if you were addressing me, or not. As I said in the actual "bridge" thread, there is no OMG! Crisis at all. We don't open the newspapers to find a new bridge collapse disaster du jour. Yeah, there are published reports...

That's the way to do it - i.e., leave the starter batteries alone, that way when it's really cold they'll still have as much juice as the cold will allow them to have, and then run everything else off the house bank, using the APU to recharge them and to run high draw stuff like an air...

A million dollars a mile is closer to what it costs to build a 4-lane road. Here's some eye-opening numbers, especially for Boston and New York. :) http://www-pam.usc.edu/volume2/v2i1a3s2.html From the Nov, 2003 annual meeting of the National Transportation Research Board, Washington D.C, the...

Me too, I'm still here. Panther does some things that just drive me crazy. So did Con-Way NOW, just different stuff. Slow and steady, even in expediting, wins the race - Aesop

You can actually use any inert gas in tires, be it nitrogen, argon, helium, neon, radon, krypton, xenon. I'm sure I'm leaving some out. Air is comprised of about 78% nitrogen, 20% nitrogen, .9% argon, .3% carbon dioxide, and the rest is trace amounts of other gases and water vapor. Argon is...

RE: CONFUSED!! I need to invent some barrel ratchets or something. A ring that fits around the top of the barrel, but won't slide down, and then it would have 3 or 4 straps coming off with e-track fittings on the ends. :) One, two, and four barrels, I have no problems with. It's three on a...

Thanks. Good information. I had been to the TA in Rogers before. I've also been to the Holiday MegaStop 15 miles or so south of town, just below where 35W and 35E come back together. It's at exit 81, 210th Street exit, in Lakeville, MN. Plenty of big truck parking. A McD next door, Subway and...

RE: CONFUSED!! E-Track on floor E-track ratchet straps: Two yellow Two gray Two blue Load bars: Two 2x4 (one with E-track attached) One 2x6 (with E-Track attached) Three pairs of wood beam sockets One ratchet jack bar (modified to fit the Sprinter) Blankets Never had a load move on me...

RE: CONFUSED!! Thanks. That's how I secure them, too. One and two drums isn't a problem, and usually 4 isn't that big a deal, either. It's that odd third drum that is a PITA. I was just wondering if there was a better way to secure them. Fortunately, though, in his customary stellar fashion...

RE: CONFUSED!! Thanks for the advice. It was very helpful.

I'd give the thong a try, but I can't thing very well. (somebody will get that, and laaaffff). Slow and steady, even in expediting, wins the race - Aesop Moth: The green thtuff, found on the north thide of treeths.

RE: CONFUSED!! I know some guys driving cargo vans who could use a course in basic securement. You know, those drivers with no decking, no e-track, just a bungy cord or two. For that matter, me. The one I still haven't mastered is three drums just sitting there on a skid, not secured to each...

>How long will a pair of deep cell batteries last running an >airconditioner like that? Kinda depends on the total amp hours of the deep cycle batteries. :) If it's a 525 watt air conditioner, which is a 120-volt unit, probably not very long, regardless of the amp hours of the batteries. 525...

I couldn't run for governor, 'cause I live in Kentucky and I'm not corrupt enough. :) I live really close to Kentucky Dam, and see first hand the benefits of the TVA (Tennessee Valley Authority) lock and dam system, and know how it was all accomplished. A part of the New Deal, it was the...

My pleasure. :) The manual for that monitor is a really good one, and for those interested in deep cycle batteries, it's a good read even if you don't have or want the monitor itself. I feel like Scotty, recommending technical manuals for casual reading. :D Slow and steady, even in...

I got my 3000 watt pure sine wave inverter from them. Works great. Slow and steady, even in expediting, wins the race - Aesop
