builds character posted:Yeah, I have the big dewalt impact and it is very good. Less expensive and slightly fewer ft lbs but not in a way that matters for any of us, I think. I’m skeptical of anything HF but I know they’ve made a few good things. HF is definitely coming up in quality. They still make, or rather, sell the cheap stuff, but some of the newer stuff is pretty swank. Predictably more expensive, too - sometimes approaching name-brand, unfortunately. Elviscat posted:Those Torque numbers are the same as the old corded tools horsepower ratings, maybe generously achievable under a biased manufacturer's test. Maybe - but it's still a big ol' boy. quote:I have the big Dewalt 1/2", and it's awesome, a step down from the equivalent Milwaukee, but whatever. I may have to pick up the Dewalt and a couple batteries/charger just for flexibility. I already have some old B&D Firestorm tools using an adapter to the B&D 20V Max batteries. Pity the parent company made the B&D and Dewalt 20V Max batteries incompatible. Not just physically - as I recall, one has on-board BMS, and the other lets the charger handle it. Same damned company, but... wesleywillis posted:Then they didn't test the actual high torque one. I hate to keep arguing no I don't, but yes, they did. 2762-20 is right there below the 2864:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9PU_V1btloA It did 778 foot pounds in 15 seconds. It did do 801 with the 12Ah high current battery, BTW. (I'll stop now, before I become the failure.)

if your tire is made of ice, then you should get great traction on ice...that's who the elements work right?

`Nemesis posted:Heard y’all love two piece wheels, so how about five piece wheels? That guys’ channel is great. He blows up old useless diesel engines sometimes and wrecks buses. I unsubscribed because he’s kind of chud adjacent in his videos with respect to government emissions controls and such and it got annoying. But I’ll still watch the odd video because it’s such unique content.

sharkytm posted:Exactly what I thought too. At least it's a 98-99 Altima. 93-01 were decent cars as long as you didn't ignore timing chain rattle (KA24DE, so a very typical problem). Unfortunately, timing chain anything is an engine out job on those fuckers, and the distributors were prone to getting oil in them and fouling the optical pickup once the seals went inside them (no repair kit, NLA from Nissan, remans almost always have the same problem, and it's a distributor specific to the FWD KA24DE). PCV valve or power steering pump may as well be an engine out job too (intake manifold comes off, PITA on those cars). Had a beat to poo poo 99. Scooted pretty decent, just tried to bankrupt me (mostly PO neglect). I'd own another one if I could get a 00-01 with a 5 speed and good timing chain guides.

Cojawfee posted:Yes, at a shallow angle, water will totally reflect light, we are looking head on at that tire. The water-air interface has varying reflectivity depending on the angle of incidence, but it is never zero. I linked you to the fresnel equations wikipedia page, which gives you the formulae to calculate it. You can do the full calculations with the s- and p- polarizations if you want, but in the special case where we are looking straight down onto (normal to) the water's surface -- which in this case is the angle with minimum reflectance -- the equation simplifies to R = ((n1 - n2) / (n1 + n2)) ^ 2 where n1, n2 are the refractive indices of the two materials. 1.0 for air and 1.33 for water gives us an R of 0.02. That means that even looking straight at the wet tire, 2% of the incident light coming straight from behind us will be reflected into our eyes. The tire is black and the photo was taken on a bright overcast day. Even 2% of the light from the sky is still pretty bright. For light at a slightly shallower angle, like say light coming from the sky near the horizon, the angle into our eyes is shallower and the reflection will appear even brighter. This reflected light is what makes the tire shine. Does that address your concerns? Sagebrush fucked around with this message at 03:20 on Oct 28, 2022 |

That is a wet bald tire reflecting the grey sky above the viewer. I did not think this was a subject I was going to have to weigh in on in 2022 but here we are.

Looks like this is the original posting of the image on Reddit, and it's higher quality. https://www.reddit.com/r/Justrolledintotheshop/comments/f6b6d0/customer_refused_all_4_tires_on_a_rainy_day_she/ Personally, it's hard wrapping my brain around a material I generally think of as matte and textured (rubber) being able to attain a level of polish that results in a near-mirror finish. But then I remember that rubber hardens as it ages, and that is definitely an aged tire. Doing a Google image search brings up some results from the Garda in Ireland of a car that's getting close to that level of polish: https://twitter.com/GardaTraffic/status/573600762342830080

Also don’t underestimate people’s abilities when it comes to stupidity. I remember seeing what I thought were racing slicks in the corner of my mechanics workshop. I asked him what they came off, expecting a V8 Supercar or something (I used to live ~near~ Mount Panorama/Bathurst) The answer was: an X5. The owner balked at the price, got the rears replaced and left the fronts on, despite him protesting all the way.
