a pizza shop

OK, I guess I can see that.....

I love winter. Cold as ^%&* but still love it. I can't wait for a snow bash...

IN st charles it was snowing since before I woke up. But I am farther from the equator

Nothing accumulating here either just a dry cold blowing snow..

It's so pretty............I feel like going Christmas Shopping!


I wonder what she'll like better:

A high torque servo or a new engine?

I can't decide. I'll get her both!!

My SM asked for, and got an early gift.




After using Tex's hex drivers, now my own, I wonder why I waited so long to get some decent tools. For the first time ever, I removed a VBS skid without stripping a screw.

good tools make a world of difference when working on a truck. I cant remember the last time i stripped out a screw since i got my hex drivers.

Yep it's been snowing in joliet since about 8 ish this morning, mabye earlier...

You mean those tools that come with the Revo aren't the good stuff?

Rob, what are they, and whadidya pay?

Its been snowing since I woke up. Around 7:00 and it is still snowing.

RDlogics metric kit, $27 at hobby town in Aurora.

I have the same hex tools you got here RobH. Those are good stuff and worth every penny.

I have another set of Sportwerks's. I don't really like it because it is too short.

Now I need to get me a Hudy's

Oh you are a funny guy.... I snapped one of the revo tools off and it stabbed into a part of my hand. It was pretty gruesome. You think I can sue them??? :bustingup

i had the hudys, personally i think they were junk! my screws were stronger than them!

I am too much of a cheap @ss to buy nice tools. I use what I have for now and will upgrade along the line. I don't own any socket drivers either... I just snag my dads small snap on ratchet with long sockets and a flex extension and that thing can reach anything...

yeah snap-offs are good like that!!! i just picked up new craftsman allens and i love them.

I need to get some metric allen bits though. all I have right now are standard. They are great for stripping out small metric allens...

you guys trip me out...lol

I used dynamite hex drivers for 2 years and they were oh, yet too short.

I have the hudy's now and like them. I definitely wouldn't say they are weak, they are the best RC tools made (and you pay for that at the register...lol)
