A new 20kg $15,000 pail of krytox grease. I used 1 of these every 2 months or so. Preventative maintenance is expensive. I guess that's why management tries to avoid it.

My wife’s new tool day. I feel like a sucker spending $700 on a vacuum but considering there is about $15,000 worth of tools in my shop... figured it was fair. Plus it has a freakin laserbeam!

First diablo blade I’ve ever bought. FELL APART! Using a 10,000 rpm grinder cutting 1/8” mild steel. Has this happened to anyone else?

Just parted with my beautiful Brymen BM869s. I rarely needed such a high end meter hence the excellent condition. I was mostly amazed by its super wide AC frequency response bandwidth and 500,000 DC display count. Are there any Brymen fans on this sub?
