Made a quick work bench in the basement today. About time I got off my ass and set up my Lee press.
I've seen enough Breaking Bad to know where this is headed.

I loaded up 40 rounds of 10mm tonight. Going to try them out and see how they shoot. I need to find other powders to try and figure out a load for 155gr lead bullets.
180gr FMJ with 13.3gr of Accurate #9. Should be around 1200-1250 FPS.
I have not watched Breaking Bad

WTF is up with our overflow pressure cap? Or whatever the hell it's called now being it's not on the radiator.
I had to add some coolant to the wife's Cruze when it was 20F out and the thing was almost impossible to get off of the tank. I was worried the thing was going to break.
And it was just as hard to get back on.

Perhaps the plastic that the cap's made from contracts at a different rate in the cold temps than the plastic around the neck of the tank? Could the neck have been a little warmer than the cap due to some residual heat from driving some time prior?
Different material expansion/contraction rates is all that comes to mind.

I don't know, but it seems to suck.
Not only do the cars continuously loose coolant, but they made it hard to add coolant as well.

With all this talk regarding coolant lately, I better check mine... Just hit 10k mi..... And only made two payments, third one being mid December
Nothing was mentioned when I had my first scheduled eerl change at 7k mi right before driving out to Seattle

Hey preloader, remember I was having a lean cel? I flashed to the update tune with ECP enabled and the cel is gone

Well I figured that was it because 10 minutes before I flashed he tune I wasnt getting any lean code, surely nothing would of broke during the time i went for a drive then once i flashed the update without ECP enabled it popped a code. That and i checked and re checked pretty much everything i could think of and everything looked fine.

It almost seems that the rate at which I'm losing coolant has slowed a bit. I don't have any specifics to quantify that claim, but from all appearances it seems to be so. Although I'm still loosing coolant, which in itself isn't cool. Pardon the pun.

Had to make a few changes to my original plan for the contactor. The timer and bypass switches are located below the contactor box. The switches are set up for on/auto. On position would just bypass the NO contacts and send power to the light, and auto would allow for the time to control the lights through the contactor. I still have to run the wiring to the lights, but at least the control side is done. I still need to straighten a few things out and make it look neater, but im done working on it for the night.
Yesterday I meet up with a buddy and did some consumables shopping. Came home with 4 different kinds of smokeless powder and a total of 850 bullets. For powder I picked up one pound cans of WST, W296, and AutoComp, and a 9oz can of Trail Boss. For bullets I picked 250 count 180gr FMJ .40/10mm, 100 count 158gr FMJ .38/.357, and 500 count 158gr LSWC .38/.357.
I spent the early part of today loading up a few different rounds to try at the range. All of todays loading was with .357 Mag brass. The W296 loads will be a little rough, but are manageable. I really need to get a chronograph to test them out for velocity. It should be around 1700-1800 FPS for the 110gr loads, and 1400-1500 FPS with the 140gr loads. The opposite end of the spectrum will be the 158gr LSWC loaded with Trail Boss. Might squeak out 800 FPS.

Looks like complete crap dude. What'd you bend that conduit with, your teeth? My god man, seriously.
That, would've been impossible in person with a straight face.
Now on a serious note, the neatness reminds me of a 1950s Marantz under the chassis.

You joke, but mitdr knows damn well he would've had to field some serious sh¡t-talk if he had done that at work in a visible location. The unequal spread on the vertical runs of conduit wouldn't readily tolerated.
