Fucking dope.

Where did you end up buying the 850?

Bought it while I was in Hong Kong from a used dealer. Mint camera with ~50k shutter for ~$1600.

Nice pickup, which cam did you trade?

Traded my M10, last time I used it was back in October 2023 and I'm into the 6x6 groove lately.

This is on its way too, not the usual E or F Planar Rollei.

Still too much of a curmudgeon to go mirrorless. Maybe when Z8s get cheaper.

nice grabs! I personally still prefer traditional SLRs as I just don't enjoy EVF. I have an EOS RP but I only use it for scanning film

[BerserkerCatSplat]

Rollei Tessars are super underrated for some reason.

Yeah I don't get on with EVFs either but I suppose I'll have to at some point. But not today!

Yeah, I get that there are other lens designs that are optically better than Tessars, but I much prefer Tessars for their image characteristics.

Lasers... Freaking lasers man!
Chinese clone k40 for a stack of projects I have been dragging my heels on.

The seller did not appreciate my Richard Rawlings impression with "so how much do you want for this 100$ laser cutter". I thought I was hilarious.

Will it mark steel? I'm in the market for one of those.

May need cermark - definitely needed on aluminum. In theory it should - haven't personally tried though

Yeah CO2 can mark steel. Depending on the wattage you may or may not need a coating for it. Lots of people get lasers with rotary attachments and engrave the stanley mugs or similar.

After almost killing myself I went and bought this. It’s max_boost proof


I’m basically a mechanic now


My gf is so proud lol

I have that tire inflater. It's great!

I like my pressure washer so far, so I'm doing a wall mount deal in the garage to avoid carrying the unit around when I'm washing my car.


And this

Portable tire inflators that actually work are probably the best invention of the last 10 years.

AMEN! I have the M18 and its wonderful. I haven't touched my compressor since I got it. If I wasn't already running the Milwaukee M18 stuff I would have zero problem getting the Ridgid, M12, or even the Ryobi.

[killramos]

I’d really like to pickup an M18 inflator.

[Ekliptix]

I think the tire inflator above is plug in, if it's like mine. You set the pressure and it auto-offs.
I've never tried the battery powered ones. I'd imagine they're great for bike tires, but slow for a full car/truck tire? Also, I only have Ego and Dewalt batteries.

Ohhh... I like that idea! How long is the hose? Is there a point where there's a significant loss of pressure?

[Ekliptix]

It's 65ft. Only $188. It's the 'giraffe' brand, which I've read is dog shit for their packaged wall pressure washer units. But this hose should be good enough.

For pressure loss, that is caused by friction in the hose. Pressure loss from friction has an exponential effect with the fluid rate :nerd:.
As most pressure washers only pump between 1-2GPM (vs 5-10gpm through a garden hose), the low flow rate of a pressure washer should mean only a minor pressure loss from friction in this small (high pressure) 65ft hose.
