    Dremel -- Attachment Guide

    If you buy an air compressor to operate an air tool, be sure to check the tool's requirements to make sure the air compressor you buy will work. For example, 1/4" die grinder may require 100psi at 2cfm needs an air compressor with these numbers at a minimum to operate correctly (I did not look...

    Opinions on Handi-Rifle?

    TigerhawkT3: You did not say what you wanted a 500 S&W for (plinking :eek:, self defense, hunting, target, etc.). A S&W revolver with 8" barrel can be bought for about $800 online: http://www.gunbroker.com/Auction/SearchResults.asp There are a few with a 2.75" barrel for about $680...

    Dremel -- Attachment Guide

    There are step down transfromers 220v to 110v, inexpensive ones used by tourists should work OK. Same source eBay, Amazon, Google, etc. +1 As to what MedusaOblongata said, practice makes perfect especially if you have no to little experience with high speed rotary tools. It is amazing how...

    Dremel -- Attachment Guide

    Some eBay sellers handle international sales, do a search for "kawasaki rotary tool" or "kawasaki dremel" or something along those lines, and read the auction description to see if international sales are OK. Also, some sellers on Amazon had the 233 and 250 piece Kawasaki rotary tool, perhaps...

    GM daytime running lamps, how do I disable them?

    A BIG +1, same is true for lots of other topics in other threads here and elsewhere. As usual, the rest of Scheinwerfermann's post is excellent :thumbsup:

    Sylvania Silverstar Ultra and snow reflected glare

    True. Marketing really does have effects many do not recognize: lots of food ads resulting in an epidemic of obesity especially kids, and so on ad infinitum. Thanks for the info. My Osram Sliverstar bulbs are 2-3 years old, so the 70/65 should last at least that long. I recall I found the...

    Sylvania Silverstar Ultra and snow reflected glare

    Scheinwerfermann: What is the estimated life span for the Osram 70/65w ultra high efficiency bulb? Currently, I'm running the Osram Silverstar +50 bulb in my '77 Benz W123 after switching from a blue tinted bulb - big improvement. Great info - thanks:thumbsup:

    Kudos to Fenix on the L0D Q4 holiday special edition light

    After reading all the posts in this thread (especially Luminescent's insightful posts :bow:), the posts in 4sevens Holiday Speacils thread, and some other threads - I bought one last night, even though I have a L0D CE that I like a lot. I even bought some 10440 batts and charger to run in the...

    Brick and Mortar Fenix dealers?

    Not to get too far off-topic: Sportsman's Warehouse has several lights in the $150+ range, as I recall, because that was the first time I saw any outside of a catalog. Looking in my Cabellas catalog there are 3 ShureFire lights for $250-$400, and 2 Cabellas house brand for $70-$80 and another...

    ATTENTION FENIX ENGINEERS!

    On an everyday basis, I won't be using the strobe ar SOS modes. However, in an emergency I can see using one or both modes. Since emergencies by definition are unexpected events, you never know when these modes become a life saver even though they were never used for years. Also, it is simple...
