That's illegal in the state of California May as well ask here, I bought these somewhat recently: http://www.amazon.com/Pilot-Precise-Retractable-Rolling-Extra/dp/B001E6A9M8 Unfortunately my second batch has an issue my first didn't, which is ink continuing to flow out of the tip even while not writing. It's inconsistent but when it happens it sucks. Any of you nerds recommend a good pen, pref. avail in blue ink?

Ryobi is genuinely terrible and I speak from the experience of having used a table saw, a circular saw, a router, miter saw and drill. Every single one of them was made from lovely materials and had some bizzare flaw that makes them no use for anything but a hobbyist. A lot of people are puritanical about the tools they use but to call someone who refuses to work with Ryobi a snob is retarded.There are plenty of good budget brands out there that are a bit more expensive than Ryobi but of vastly higher quality. My ryobi saw tables are used as work benches now.

Tres Burritos posted:The unwritten part of that post was, "Yes two pairs of leather boots will last you a lifetime, and are the only footwear you will ever need. I got mine custom fitted at my cobbler for the low low price of $750 per foot. It's important that your cobbler analyzes both your gait and posture as well as the zodiac sign you were born under so that he can better fit the correct animal carcass with your feet. My aura is particularly agreeable with goat hide. It is also important to accompany your boots with the proper maintenance regimen, once a month I treat my boots with only the finest oils in a highly ritualized ceremony under the full moon, some people say the incense is optional but let me tell you, it makes a huge difference." What the gently caress is this poo poo

I picked up a set of Oakley Airbrake ski googles for next season. They came with 2 lenses, Prism Jade (seen) and Prism Rose, which will be better for overcast days. They also fit my helmet pretty much perfectly. (I sent this picture to my friend who also skis, hence the middle finger, not trying to be edgy or anything).

^the Ryobi poo poo came wrong right out of the box. Fences that weren't straight, blades that weren't aligned and couldn't be if you tried. A dust tube made out of lovely hose that did a U bend.LUBE UP YOUR BUTT posted:what are those budget brands you speak of well by budget I mean "the cheapest you can realistically pay". A brand like Jet is good if you're willing to do some work on the tool. I've got a jet planer and band saw and cannot complain about them at all but they come with very flimsy pressed steel stands however there is nothing stopping you from just building your own or attaching it to a work surface. The bandsaw was about $200 cheaper than the others on offer. I've heard that Maktec, which is owned by Makita, is also good value for money. They are a "budget" version of Makita I guess. plain blue jacket has a new favorite as of 17:20 on Aug 20, 2015 |

I had a battery stop holding a decent charge at the very end of its warranty, one that was getting close to as bad, contacted Ryobi, and they had a new set of batteries and a Ryobi hat overnighted to me

Was it built like that or was there a renovation at some point? Edit: Hey Summit is actually the closest track to where I live, but I haven't been on it since a training class in the mid-90's. How many cars do they generally allow on the track at once? Double-edit: looks like that day is for bikes only so wouldn't apply to me, but out of curiosity what's their bike capacity? davebo has a new favorite as of 04:40 on Aug 21, 2015 |

Ryobi is fine for the average person whose tools really aren't doing a ton of heavy lifting. My Ryobi drill is firmly in the "yeah it's ok" category.

If you are a home DIYer doing light weight projects, they're fine. If you are a hobbyist woodworker/cabinet maker or undertaking major projects like tearing out and replacing a room, you probably have better tools already.

It only took me 2 months to find a place to live, too! Fun times. But seriously, a fresh start feels loving great. I can finally buy poo poo without needing anybody's input.
