Wow. Jeeze, still bothered about that? I'm sorry I brought up flag etiquette at all. Unsusbscribed.

Yes, fly the dang thing... Unless you're government the rules don't apply anyway. I'll take a self-imposed "time-out" since this turned touchy...

Or your state flag, branch of the military you served in (if applicable), or if you are multi-national the flag of the country of your family's heritage. Just the remember the US Flag goes on it's own right, is equal in height to other country flags when we are not at war, takes a place of...

And I led of with "I'm not a stickler" - I agree with Ahab, as long as you're not leaving it up past when it tears in the wind or bashing government policies and setting them on fire while stomping on them (yeah I know it's free speech, but it's still disrespectful, which I can't abide) I don't...

Looks great!! Shake-down runs help you figure out what to improve next. Can't wait for the report :) I'm not a stickler, but is that flag on the correct side? IIRC the flag goes on "it's own Right" (think of it like "Stage right, Audience left").

This one was the best radio shack I've seen on the inter-webs (S-250 shelter): I hope my S-250 project turns out half as nice...

I want 4 of those spot light for my truck build - like they have on the MRAPs: I'd love to have it with the White/940nM-IR, probably have to do a retrofit...

For the outside looking in it does - don't tell anyone any different [thumbzup]

Despite the suffering, at least you can rest with the knowledge that it looks awesome!!! Nice clean job :)

I know what you mean, I'm 2 years into a 9 month truck build, no time in sight... :)

Can't wait to see how that array turns out, installation looks great! [thumbzup]

You could also do a hydroboost and just get rid of the question marks with the air system completely - keep it for tools and such...

I'd at least spend some time thinking about the failure modes possible by adding parts to the system: Air lines burst or get cut, what happens? Check valve gets stuck open from one half, what happens? Governor fails to stop the compressor at high-pressure, what happens? As a general rule...

I dug a little and found this thread that has a good diagram. If you are duplicating the air system is there any way you can duplicate the compressor too? If not you might be able to find a dual cylinder air compressor where each cylinder matches the original compressor CFM and split the...

Not sure how "correct" you want to keep your air system if you're adding a tank or two... I am a fan of the modern air system desings, a "wet" tank before the other tanks seems like the way to go (AirCompressor-->AirDryer-->"WetTank"-->OtherTanks). I also like the 95psi cracking pressure check...

Quick recommendation - idle you engine and feel the hole you cut, if air is getting blown out the front of your core support, you may be creating a path for hot radiator air to loop around the front of the radiator.

Yes. If you are running a cheap inverter, or considering a cheap inverter, add the cost of this battery interrupter to the inverter and compare it to inverter models that have a low-voltage cut-out. If the cheapie-inverter+battery-interrupter is less than the more expensive inverter with a...

If you're going to power house loads with the chassis batteries, consider a Priority Start device to ensure there is enough juice to get running again. 24V version 12V version Not sure if you changed the chassis batteries to 12V or not. Each version can be found for less than $100 shipped...

Yes, the transition time is the critical part. Also the circulation around the container part that Mike talks about is a reason to look at your fridge and make sure it doesn't look like this: Over-packed refrigerators will never cool the food at the front properly, and with the doors open the...

Yeah most people don't have food service training, that one is lost on people who aren't familiar with food safety. Take my parents... "science experiments" - just cut off the rotting part of the head of lettuce and keep the rest in the same bag it just came from, or just throw out the one...
