One time when I was very young and green I had a woodchipper pop out of the hitch on me (I trusted someone else to hitch it and of course was being pressured by the boss to get moving) and it left a ten foot skid on a residential street but was weirdly quiet.

The bullet is moving easily half the speed of sound, so if the tits are moving at least twice as fast as the bullet (they are), they’re breaking the sound barrier.

Those of you who have ventured into the BFC subforum at any point in the last decade will be familiar with the poster child for Bad With Money, zuarg.

zuarg is knowingly buying a condo with federal pacific breakers.

hi im an electrician and at my company we call those breakers welders

you can literally hook it up and keep an arc and weld two pieces of metal together without it tripping because they are so loving useless at doing what they're supposed to do. we loving all hate them and refuse to do anything with them unless the customer is cool with us shutting off the main service first, otherwise NOPE, give them the 5x gently caress off estimate and pray they aren't willing to pay.

I'd guess that's more like Mach 2.5-3.5, going off usual muzzle velocities for .223-.308 caliber cartridges, so those tits are flopping around at Mach 5-7. Although I think that's the wrong way to think about it; they're oscillating 1 complete cycle in the time it takes that bullet to cross her chest, so they're vibrating in the low kilohertz range. She should be emitting a piercing whine, possibly two given that this can't be pleasant.

How much would you charge to replace one if they were willing to shut off the main service?

well it'd be replacing the entire panel at least and probably everything in the house if they wanted it inspected so it depends on the size of the place. at least $2k for just the panel. if someone tried to hire me to replace one breaker i'd tell them they need to get rid of the entire panel.

generally people don't want to go to the expense of bringing everything up to code and are looking for some smaller project, but gently caress if im going to trust one of those breakers to be "off" while i work on their bathroom or whatever.

Air in a truck brake line holds the spring-backed brake pads off the drum. Once you lose air pressure (because, say, you've parted company with an axle group), the brakes are coming on no matter what you do.

Okay, I'm in the construction industry in Western Washington, and word of mouth from someone I know who's in touch with a guy from this rental agency says that this was trailered from Maple Valley to Blaine.

They actually restarted the gear after this fault and ran it for a full cycle, until its water pump overheated from the dropped phase.

It was phase C that dropped, too, not the fried one; blew the downstream fuse. The 800 A downstream fuse.
