I MPI test all my bolts and barrels myself. Have been for years. Even ran my BCG's and barrels through a cryogenic process for the hell of it.

Heyyyyo
Didn't see the SpaceX launch today because it was foggy as heck, but I could hear it from almost 30 miles away. That was neat.
Also, they were this close -> | | to successfully landing on the barge under really bad conditions!
So abort/crash?Quote:

Read the comments on the right and understand how incredibly difficult this objective is.
Not quite! No abort. Not exactly a crash... :)Quote:

HoneyBadger, how did you feel about The Martian? Just watched it today.
SCOTT! What is your take on tankless water heaters? I'm not serious enough to start a thread about it, just want to know your opinion on them. Could I realistically replace my 50 gallon water heater with a tankless? In a ranch with no basement and no utility room, it'd really save a lot of space and clean up the laundry room. Do they tend to have catastrophic failures like regular water heaters?
Yes, absolutely. I wish I were smart enough to do space stuff, but I realized early on that I wasn't so never even looked to pursue.Quote:
