I've been away from the office for a number of days, and have gotten quite far behind in dealing with various mailing lists concerns, parts requests and other such things. I'll be working on getting
[shop-talk-owner@Autox.Team.Net: BOUNCE shop-talk@Autox.Team.Net: Non-member submission from ["Roger Garnett" <rwg@autox.team.net>]] Well, I can even do that. Due to the nature and timing of the 3 si

A little story about craftsman tools. Be forwarned that basically only the handtools which are lifetime guarenteed. Other more complicated devices with the craftsman name do not have the same guarent
Yep, this is a good cheap, quickie way to do it. One of my factory auto-repair manuals (Mazda 323) even shows this as a way to set the bearing preload --by using a spring scale to pull on the hub unt
I'm shooting for upgrading majordomo on autox.team.net to 1.94 this weekend, so there may be periods of no service. Don't worry about it until next week. I'll also try to get to some other pending li

I've got some other commitments this weekend, and simply don't have time to fix a few problems with various lists, mostly digests not going out due to the colected files being too big. I'll get them
A few weeks ago I asked subscribers about a mailing list intended for the more commercial types of postings to the various lists. The initial response was quite favorable. I actually set it up shortl
After having saved quite a while to get a new welder (that old miller buzz box just doesn't cut it anymore), I headed down to the local welding place to check on the current pricing on the Miller Eco
I use a CO2 Fire Extinguisher for a MIG welder gas supply. This system has been working successfully for 6 years. There is no problems getting it filled as it is meant for CO2. In Australia, a secon
I have been on the lookout for something like this myself and have not found it in any of the usual places (Sears, Home Depot, Lowes). I just ordered the Eastwood catalogue. Could someone please give
FYI: First Alert sells CO alarms (same folks make LOTS of smoke detectors). Bummer part about CO is the way it is lighter than air, and manages to seep up then back back. YOU might be fine in a open
Many moons ago, I received a set of Penncraft sockets (from JC Penneys). They were guaranteed for life just like Craftsman from Sears. Now, Penneys no longer sell tools and they don't want to live up
I've just installed a newer version of sendmail, which seems to be working fine. If you notice any strange problems with mail to whatever lists on autox.team.net you are on, let me know. List to whic

I just moved into a [rented] house with a 2-car garage. I'll probably be in this house for 2 or 3 years, so I want to install a decent workbench in it. I'd like anyone's reccomendations on building c

I was mentioning to someone at the Denver Solo II National Tour that the last time I left town the server died shortly after I left. At least this past weekend it waited until Sunday. Things should b

I am thinking of removing the 'who' command from majordomo. As people start seeing the internet as just another version of television, with no need for all those annoying programs between the commerc

A week or two ago, I was cleaning up the MG digest, and sent a message to the MG list asking folks to put some effort into editing the text they include with their replies. Though it shouldn't come a
I will be back sometime next week, around 16 July, so if anything blows up with mail from the lists, the web pages or FTP access, just sit tight, I'll fix it later. mjb. --
