NWI INDIANA GUN OWNERS. #24 Lets face it we all love to shoot and eat

[CTC B4Z]

The kids in the shop typically use air impacts because the owner provides them free of charge, 30 years of using them, I find them horrible annoying anymore. My big Milwaukee doubles the torque of my best ingersol rand platinum pneumatic, that being said I only break out the big boy when I need it, there’s a mid power Milwaukee that more than matched it, weighs less, and lasts for days on a single battery. Of course a big ol air compressor is still in the shop (we sell tires) and I have an equally big compressor at home.

Post your red collection.

Only thing not pictured is the 90 degree drill that is absolutely clutch.

That air cat is unbelievable. I can't believe I never had a good air hammer.

Holy bracket Busters Batman! First time ever, no number one seeds going to the final eight.

Now that's diversity, equity, and inclusion.

.

Edit, whoops: I have 2 team remaining (Kansas St. & Texas), and slated them to lose this coming next round. I should have just flipped a coin.

Couple buddies and I hit up Foreign Local and 18th Street Brewery last night to try...except we walked in the 18th Street Distillery by a happy accident and had some old fashions. Good catching up and stories.

I've been getting the Milwaukee battery tools as well.

Yep, I have K-State remaining and Gonzaga to take it all. But after watching U-conn play, I doubt Gonzaga can even beat them.

I do enjoy seeing the small teams being competitive with the big boys. Makes for some great basketball, win or lose.

My favorite team is whoever plays Gonzaga.

I’m an auto tech by trade, tge only pneumatic tool I still use is an air hammer/chisel, otherwise Milwaukee covers everything I need.

Are you the same Kevin that exercised my transmission demons this week?

I mean replacing major components from what I hear is part of standard maintenance. Battery replacement is maintenance, certain parts getting replaced every 30-60k miles is maintenance.

Yep, they leave the expensive stuff off those, would turn people off if they knew. No one ever wants to talk about the battery pack and what happens to them and the electric drive module when exposed to the kind of temps we have in Indiana. It is always fun to watch people ask the engineers questions about them in meetings. Best answer I have ever heard was "As long as the vehicle is not operated or stored outside of specified operating temps, we see no cause for concern." Followed by "What will the specified operating temps be at time of launch?" To which the engineer answered, "Those are currently being discussed."
With that being said, I hear our heat pumps will be 2nd to none. Honestly I don't know if I want to still be working here when the company has to survive on EV sales. I think hybrids have a better chance of success or maybe this new tech that Cummins is experimenting with.

C'mon, man! With a name like Gonzaga, you gotta love them!

I have a friend who went to Gonzaga and Creighton. One was undergrad and one was law school. Don't recall which was which off hand. But he's got to be happy at this point. Two small Catholic schools...

Hopefully his wife stays on his right

Like I've said. License to drive, license to carry(not relavant now) should be super hard to obtain and require vigorous testing cause carrying like that you have got to be complete *******.

Well, that is 10 years away. Odds are I won't have the car then.

Oh, and here it is safe at home.
