GREAT BUILDING! WEIRD SIGN! LOL :)


I believe I was in Gadsden AL?  🙂  This was obviously a hand wash place with a hose and bucket.  Their name was “God’s Grace” Car Wash…. but their sign said “KEEP Moving FORWARD”.  What does keep moving forward ever refer to?  I like the style though.  BTW…. Yes they were still washing cars.  It was just raining today.

Looks like an old service station I guess…. $20 for “most cars” and $25 for “most trucks”.  I am not sure what that even means?  Do they accept offers…. “How about $15?”  That is normally how I get my lawn cut.  LOL 🙂

Gadsden, AL Self Serve

I am not saying my wash is any better or worse…. This self serve is behind a Exxon gas station: 936 Rainbow Dr, Gadsden, AL 35901

2x ROWE BC-200 I hate to say it…. But there is a 92.94% change that 1 or both do not work. 🙂 One has a pushed in acceptor also…. so 99.992% right? 🙂 Which means no stacker I believe.




This Turtle Wax sign is pretty cool.

Does everyone except for me purchase nice drill bits? Well…. These feel like nice drill bits! :)


Now I just got these: Walter Surface Technologies 01E618 29-Piece Round Shank Jobber’s Length SST+ Drill Bit Set, Orange Like today…. a couple hours ago.  🙂  So these might all break and be total crap…. but I have not touched a drill bit that felt this nice before.  The cutting edges are also very sharp all the way up the bit…. to the touch.  Unlike Dewalt, etc. brands, big box bits.  Also the price is $2.37 a bit…. you probably pay more for crappy bits?  These have to be better…. I would think?  LOL 🙂  I think they claim to last x50 longer than the other stuff I purchased in the past…. so 50 holes I guess?!  LOL 🙂  The bar is really low for me…. I just want the job at hand done.  Maybe the next also?  Using 1 drill bit total!

How do I run air tools from my truck over DC? CHEAP! LOL :)

Has anyone wanted to run some air tools from their truck?  What was your setup?

These are some tools I was to try and use:

Ingersoll Rand 1/4″ Air Die Grinder 3107G  3 CFM
Ingersoll Rand 326G 3-Inch Edge Series Cut-off Air Tool  6 CFM
Ingersoll Rand 170G 3/8-Inch Edge Series Drive Air Ratchet  3 CFM

I was thinking about trying a small DC air compressor…. around 3 CFM @ 90 PSI?  The Puma PD-1021 runs off 12v DC and I would not need to run an inverter (I believe I would need a 2000 watt also and I wanted to try and get a Xantrex inverter).

Then if I get an inverter the question is…. (Inverter I believe is $350-500?)
1) Should I purchase an air compressor? Or just purchase corded tools for the inverter?
2) If I plan on purchasing an inverter why not repurchase everything cordless! LOL 🙂

This idea seems like a bad idea?  Or an expensive plan.
