Top Fuel is impressive. F1 is more so. Until I actually hear a Shuttle launch, the F-104 Starfighter is my choice for the most INTENSE noise created by a machine. They did a fly-by under full burner at Dayton last year, and it was just mind-boggling that anything could make a noise like that without God dropping by to complain.

Tried it on about a dozen pieces of laminated/tempered glass at break. Spark plug ceramic insulator pieces fly a good distance when they bounce off unshattered glass. Maybe you really have to put your arm into it, but just dropping it from 5 feet up or underhand tossing it doesn't do it. I did bust one piece of regular plate that I don't think a regular rock of the same size would have cracked.

Cool.....but essentially meaningless. Note the language in the bill, it only applies to firearms being manufactured IN Montana. Of which there are a total of zero.

There's a place at Roberts and Dublin Rd. that takes yard waste, think it's a mulch company. Dunno what the name is, but their damn trucks dump branches all over the lawn of the company I work at.

I'll go one better. I work in a glass place, we have literally TONS of scrap tempered glass just lying around. I'll test this out at work on Monday, but I'm 99% of the way to throwing a BS flag.

That's not a steering wheel, it's a Claymore Mine of Irony.....

I'm feeling like a goober for saying this, but the guy that sells jerky at the gun shows at Westland makes some wicked good stuff. Anymore, it's the only reason I go to the shows at all.

Ouch.....+1 on steeltoes not being helpful in that kind of situation. They're great for things like dropping a cinderblock on your foot, or when you get mad and throw a running angle-grinder at your foot (not me, c'mon now!), but when it comes to real weight.... I had a co-worker who dropped a 4500lbs battery on his foot. The steeltoe part of his boot collapsed and basically squeezed his toes back into the boot, like smashing a phone book down on a jelly donut. They couldn't even try to do anything, just too much damage. Hopefully things work out for you, it's a good sign if they haven't asked you if you really NEED to count past 15.....

So what'd the Dozer put down?

Yes.

Hopefully it's asshole cancer.

Khaaaaaaaaaaannnnnnnnnn!

There were a BUNCH of companies back in the late 80s-early 90s trying to get their particular OHC conversions to the market. Most of them were nothing more than snake-oil, but there were a couple that at least got into customer cars. There was a Ford 460 head that looked like a Cammer, but was DOHC, with one cam driven by the crank, and driving the other by a tiny chain. Edelbrock did a 3-valve SOHC head for the LT-1 for GM sometime in 91 as an experiment that went nowhere. There was even a DOHC head for the 500cid CADILLAC motor, which made some runs in a rail dragster. The weirdest one I remember was a SBC head that used OHC for the 2 intake valves, but the in-block cam for the exhaust valves.

They make these things for pistons, they call em "rings", it helps with the oil-burning. Yeah? I think the V6 GT was a mid-low 15 second car, so if you compare it to an N/A Supra Mk.III automatic...well, it's still a damn Probe.

It was used back in the day for steam engines. They had an article on the Coates prototype in Hot Rod back in the early 90s, it was built on an older 350 motor. They were apparently about to go into production, but I guess that hasn't happened in the last 15 or so years.

They must have looked at the Ark....

Saiga 12, yah? Me wanty.....

They can cut the key from the VIN, but you have to show the title to prove you are the owner of the vehicle. Some places can't do the actual cutting of the key, but they'll give you the key profile, so that a key place can cut it for you. The one in front of Sears at Eastland is where I always went.

A shop vac with panty hose or fishnet stretched over the nozzle works well, if you can get the end near enough.

But those Mustangs and that Pulsar are for DAMN sure Circleville cars.....

I have a time machine. Every week I travel back in time and make the people who have recently annoyed me never have existed in the first place.

KillJoy, you raise a valid point. Those are just my results, I didn't want to speak to anything but my own experience. BUT....others over at xdtalk report similar performance, and some of them are guys that put 500-1000 through their pieces EVERY WEEK.

Guys, I'm finally getting around to applying for my Curio and Relic license (FFL01). The form states that I need to provide a copy to the "Chief Law Enforcment Officer" of my locality. I'm assuming that this will be somebody in the Franklin County Sheriff's office, but does anyone know WHO? Should I mail in their copy, or deliver it in person?

There is a Jeep only yard out near Springfield, they seem to be the reason you never find Jeep parts in the rest of the Columbus junkyards. Unfortunately, I've been trying, and unable, to find any contact info on them for months meself. I've talked with 4 or 5 people who've been there, and when I ask for numbers or an address, they never have it, and can't give me directions beyond, "Well, it's out near Springfield...." and a puzzled expression. A little spooky when you think about it.... They were in the phone book for years, they had a 1/4 page ad in the old Yellow Pages. Now they aren't listed.
