    During a renovation when my dad and I were partners in a const. company, we JUST finished laying down a nail-down 3/4" pre-finished oak floor. Well, pops hated those spring guards and wedged a shim in it to do a cut. Welp, he forgot and set the saw down on the floor before it wound down and it took off across the floor, gouging it all to hell. :/

    He hurried up and moved the furniture back in as it was under the client kids' bed. lol
    Phew, thankfully it was just the floor.

    My GC has had guys who did similar things, or had circ. saws with gummed up guards that didn't always snap back into place. They would set them down still spinning and they would jump back at them. One guy didn't get so lucky. Saw jumped off a piece of metal and went right into his lower abdomen. Barely survived, as he cut up some seriously important stuff.

      They are still used around here by the concrete guys for cutting rebar mostly. Most framers here use the standard Mikita Circ saw with the guard removed.

      I like the Milwaukee version. I’ve gotten many years of happy use from mine.

          After I posted the headers I looked at CraigsList and saw these.

          Toyota Tundra OEM Cloth Interior Seat Covers (2010 - 2018) - $200 (Peoria)



          I texted the guy, asked if they were for a CrewMax & they are! we agreed on 150 & I drove the 60-mile round trip & got them.

          I'm shocked they are the color I wanted & are for my body style. Stoked!

            Shoved the driver seat on, looks ok considering it was never meant to be on top of the original seat.

            Waiting for hog ring pliers, silicon spray and hog rings rings.

            Looks like the cut outs for the tilt mech is on the opposite sides of the back seat. Guess I'll be cutting it.

              What do the little secondary tubes to the flanges do? Is that an EGR setup?

                Probably a secondary air pump type deal that late e36's have. Or a mini turbo

                    New RC plane. FMS 980mm P-47 "High Speed" version. A fun, fast warbird, not for novices because it's heavy and unforgiving at low speeds.



                    Also fits perfectly with wings attached in an E30's trunk which is a huge plus!

                            Yep, only mods beyond stock are a bluetooth module and a drivers heated seat. Really dig it as a touring car, just needs the shift linkage refreshed and new tie rods. Couldn't find one in the DC metro for less than 6k, so ended up getting it in NJ, and paid less than 3.

                            Only downside is that I'll be selling the S52 318ti to make room for the E39 since I'm not ready to sell the '91 318i.
