It's like watching a debate on t.v. Cutting through all the mud slinging and you actually find some good info and ideas. I'm interested in learning more about what this product actually does, yet some of y'all feel the need to fill this thread with unrelated bullshit! Feeling the need to say my 2 cents, keep your egos and hurt feeling to yourselves so some of us can try to learn some things that might or might not actually work to further the advancement of this fun hobby. Please give the respect that you yourselves would want to receive when introducing new ideas. Steve has built a name for himself that is well earned. That being said, so have many of the people on this forum. It's ok to agree to disagree, as long as opinions are based on facts. Just keep the childish comments out of the thread.

Whoa, just read this whole thread. How, could anyone bash and say it doesn't work unless they've tried it? So far all I've seen is a bunch of opinions..... Opinions are just that, opinions. Not worth shit unless backed up by facts. Somebody try it out, post up their findings, and then the evidence will speak for itself. No need for bashing and name calling, it makes people like ignorant and or stupid. Nobody learns anything from a pissing match!

Happy Birthday!!! 25 again right?!?!?!?! :woot:

I believe it's June 18th & 19th at the Marion County Fairgrounds.

Yep in Indy, If you know Hove, he was there last year and I think he's going again this year too.

And hopefully Shizzzon won't just be a spectator this year either!

Welcome Bro!

Amen to that brother! And down with the ignorant government officials who refuse to point the finger at themselves for wasteful spending by giving huge corporations insane tax breaks, and telling the lower middle class citizens that we should have no rights to a decent life. Their state bills are violating our rights to free assembly and liberty and justice for all. My Union was established in 1888....... If there is a problem with wasteful spending I highly doubt it's us, the actual working class citizens. The government pisses away money like it's nothing on the most unjustified things. We have no say in any of it. We'll see who's still in office come the next election... I know I'm not voting for the republican idiot running Ohio! That bastard's gotta go! I don't know where he gets his head up the ass ideas of a balanced budget, but to me it seems like one step closer to acting like a Dictator. I for one will stand up for my rights that so many have fought and died for, Freedom!

Super nice turn out for the show. I totally agree with Chop about the format, it was kinda lame for the spectator.... Being indoors there was no demo, no engine on at any time, cars were people powered. Nice turn out for the comp. Sad that the fire marshal had to enforce such strict rules due to the indoor nature. Being that the hydraulic show was in the main arena which IMO was stupid since they only run their show for short times, and the Meca event was an all day event, they should switch places. Whomever was the planner for the show had know idea what actually draws a crowd and where to place certain parts of the show to eliminate confusion and hamper to the needs of all the people who pay to enjoy the sights of the show. Other than that, the car show was totally HUGE!!!! Tons of classics brought back to life and if you like Corvettes then you were in luck. (I think there were 50 of them there...ha ha) Thanks ten million time for shiZZZon's work on the custom MP3 disc dealt out to IAK Members. For lack of better words, the work done on the selection is top notch and totally freakin' AWESOME!!!! Now I have to dust off the video camera and make some new vids of the insane flex and output that these new tracks make these Icons hurl out. My poor truck will never be the same. Nice to see the familiar faces again, As well as meet some new members. It was great talking and joking with you all. I had fun and look forward to seeing you all again in Indy for Slamology!!!!!! P.S. HOVE, watch out for stick grabbers!!!

I'll be there too. Driving down that morning from Cincy. Leaving the house at 6 a.m.

New tunes!!!

I plan on being there for Saturday. Still need to work out the meet up location before the show. Plus I have a few folding chairs to load up so the legs don't get tired! shizzzon- gimme a call this weekend or something. I have welding class Tuesdays & thursdays until 9pm just an fyi

I'm about to trade my Wii in for a PS3... Getting tired of the crappy controlling on the Wii and the games can all be beat in no time. All the good titles get butchered to death when put on Wii platforms. I did like the Mario Kart though!

ha ha, and you thought car audio was an expensive hobby! I have two buds with drag cars, they drop some serious coin on parts, repairs, and fuel!

I'm leaning toward the handheld one myself. Since I plan on tweeking my build again this year to try for better numbers.

Cool, I've chatted with shiZZZon about them a few times and I'm still not sure which one I want. Any two ways about it, it's always nice to have a good, dependable meter to test new designs out!

And I plan on doing the same in a couple weeks! Which one did you get?

New designs are lookin' real cool! I am impressed, very nice!

It's hard to get all that snow to move! But never the less pretty neat to try! Nice flex video!

This is going to be a challenge for sure. I myself am skeptical but, a plan is just that.....a plan. Good luck trying to pack all that wood and subs in there!

I plan on being there. Unless something drastic comes up... Any plans on a meet up or is everyone gonna play phone tag???

Holy cow! 3 or 4 times a year! On the other hand if you know your stuff, it should be a walk in the park to re-test. I'm trying to soak up all the knowledge I can to get certified for every ticket that my Union offers. There are a lot of power plants that are going to be built in the coming years, and I'd love to lock up that work to keep food on the table for as long as I can. So far I'm in the top 5 of my class. Keeping my nose in the books and practicing whenever I get a chance to strike an arc. I love welding! It's fun! Hot work.......but FUN!! I only have class 2 nights a week. So most of my practice is done at my Dad's on a piece of sh** welder....Ha Ha At school we mainly have Lincoln welders and I like those much better. Miller seems to always have issues in our shops and the local reps always want an arm and a leg to repair them. However these Lincoln's weld like champs!

When would you have to go for a re-certification? Mine is every 6 months to run a bead. My cert is good in US, Canada and some parts of Europe. I'd just have to pass the "in house" exam/test

I wish ya the best man! I hope you get that Certification. The money for certified welding is sweet! Now when you get the cert and start welding in the field I bet that's gonna be some cold work up there in Canada! Is that all going to be under or above ground? Mine's all either rooftop, shop, or indoors b/c it's for Sheet metal. (mine just has to hold air and low pressure water) Yours can actually go BOOM! I'd love to move up there for work. Our scale tops out at 27.25 an hour..... 200K is way more appealing!!!!! Kick that pipe's ass!!!!!

I cut and bend mine this Thursday! As long as I pass the damn cap!! I've been undercutting them lately during practice and it's kinda got me nervous.
