I think code requires this if a teenager is living in the house?... or maybe I just read that in the parenting manual that came with my teenager?

Where do you live? My first vehicle was a 1986 Dodge RAM 50... the same truck was sold as the Mitsubishi Mighty Max. It didn't have enough leg...

The neat little General 6 inch 1/32 - 1/64 scale rulers have the decimal equivalents printed right on the back. I still don't know the times tables...

A lathe could do this very quickly and accurately.

I made that move starting in about 2018. It's become completely natural now and other than on the CNC, I might estimate a half millimeter if need be,...

Yup. I love how Amazon lets you search previous orders "for that thang you bought awhile ago". :) I went with the 50mm length but still use 19mm...
