And also, if anyone sees Bitcoin dipping below $31,667.00, please let me know. :) Anyone bit-coining? And if any of you think that bitcoin is not a tool, you may be mistaken. Then again... :)

And for the same reason that bitcoin has any value, rarity is the reason I picked this one up at auction:

I never traded it, but will soon start hypothetical trades in bitcoin etc, my youngest son (15) wants to learn and has a lot interest in crypto type trading/investing.

I am with you... up until about a month ago. I have joined one sub group of a mastermind that I am in with agents and wall street types (39 of us in the primary mastermind. In that group we talk about different strategies and different coins. I am sure that there is a better resource but for now my toe is in the water and I have made about 8 trades (all buying - no selling). My thoughts are two fold, this is part of my 5% Vegas portion of my portfolio and I think we would all agree that it will be here for the rest of our term here before we go to the meat grinder. :)

My drill burned out as well last weekend (6 years old) so I got this on sale for a bit more than the cost of the battery.

My Sawzall that I bought in 2011 the first week the DeWalt 20V line came out finally died/caught fire this past weekend.

So I got this one on an exclusive deal because I wanted another 9A battery. This thing is thicc and my scale said it weighs 10#’s.

Wait.. caught fire? Going to need more info.
Sawzall would start smoking after making a cut through a 2"x4" stud; so I would blow it out, run a 5 gallon tank of air through an air nozzle into the sawzall to cool it down and then continue cutting out more studs until it caught fire again. I really wanted to finish getting the last of the garage walls out lol
Funny how he just breezed over that little nugget.
lol wasn't that big of a deal to me

Got to start ordering tools for the new gig last week. Got in a nice order of Knipex, Wiha, and Klein today. As well as a whole lotta $$$ worth of Fluke goodies. Still need to pick up a cordless drill and driver and maybe a sawzall as well. All my old DeWalt stuff will stay with my current locker and be passed on to whoever takes my spot. Not sure if I'll get new DeWalt stuff or go with Milwaukee this time.

Yeah I wouldn't worry about it either. Head bolts etc is what I use mine for. I have I big ass Snap-on with a 3ft handle we use to torque the wheel hubs etc on my busses

Installing my ARB twin in the bedside box a few weeks ago I was using a 1/4 drive 10mm deep impact socket. Yes it is missing. Ordered a new one. I am 95% confident after it arrives I will have two of them.

Well, to confirm that I am cheap, I have used one of those ELM $15 Bluetooth code readers for about a decade. I'm about to go fund the CCCP by buying one of these (but first I need to find a coupon! lol ). Has anyone had any luck with this thing?
