Poor fella might actually be asleep on the bus, to be optimistic.

Hoping that someone is on a greyhound feels really, really weird.

Like hoping someone has a terrible sexually transmitted disease.

Sure, if the alternative was they had their genitalia permanently horrifically mutilated. But we are talking about 14" here.

That's pretty loving shiny, do you later get to assemble your bike in pitch darkness by the side of the road?

I may have burned down my previous life to ashes, but at the end of the day i can still look myself in the mirror and know i only ruined what was mine to begin with.

Ashes make great fertiliser. Best of luck Dave.

e. Apparently it's just acetaminophen, which is Tylenol.

The gently caress kind of backwards 3rd world shithole are you talking about?

You can sometimes drive a self-tapping or other pointy screw into a roll pin and pull it out with a claw hammer or crow's-foot bar or whatever's to hand. Neither the screw nor the roll pin survive this process.

Wouldn't that expand the pin? I mean, great sounding tip but less useful up to your elbows in shufflepucks.

Pretty much, yeah. This is the kinda stuff used in factories to keep giant walks in cold, or tons of product chilled, or running process chillers.

I haven't actually worked on something this big yet, but I think for the most part the pressures are low enough that even with moving 1000s of CFMs there's not a huge risk of getting sucked in. Even if someone did get sucked in they're probably just end up crashing through the ducts before they got too far. Despite what Die Hard taught you, ducts are flimsy as poo poo.

It's also inefficient to create that level of vacuum/flow unless you really need it i.e. to move an aircraft. If you don't you size bigger ducts and lower speeds for the same flow rate.

Also, for what it's worth, once you get up to a certain size of unit, you pretty much stop using return ducts, and just have a common return, or a filter room.

Have fun changing out like 100 filters in one go!

Honestly that is so much easier and better than a hundred filters spread around the place because guarantee there will be 5-20 that will be so hard/awkward to get to that the previous guy never actually changed them. This way you truck a pallet of filters in and just have a steady couple of hours finding the drat clips you just dropped. Protip a big rare earth magnet in one leg pocket and slap any loose hardware against the outside of the pocket to keep it in place.

Then you find one of the drat things is stainless...
