I use Oxypro at home and also at work, they're pretty reasonable and they deliver if you need that too. I have an old Everlast tig at home, works great for a china machine.

[BerserkerCatSplat]

Thanks, I'll check out Oxypro - hadn't heard of them before. I was definitely considering an Everlast unit, but the PrimeWeld ended up having similar features for quite a bit cheaper (~$1000CAD), especially since I was picking some other stuff from the border anyway. Reviews well, hopefully it hold up.

Air Liquide?

I've bought from AL before but mostly for regular consumables apart from gas. I think they are more concerned with larger leased cylinder contracts than refilling 110s but can't hurt to check.

In my experience AL will gouge you unless you are buying industrial quantities.

Yeah that was the impression I got as well. It sounds like OxyPro has best prices for tanks and KMS Tools is cheapest for refills. Princess Auto consumables are even cheaper than Amazon for the most part, which was a bit surprising.

My month keeps getting better. On top of the 2 wisdom tooth I got extracted on Mar 1, I had a throbbing pain on one of the adjacent tooth in front of the wisdom that were pulled. Diagnosis is root canal. Yay!!! Another $1500 for that. But my benefits is already maxed out from the wisdom. Anyone have any experience from work insurance if they will cover extreme emergency dental above the yearly limit? I never did any dental for 5 years so they saved $10K. But I need it done sooner or later cause this pain is killing me

That seems really expensive for a root canal - mine was $1000 at an Endodontist including unexpected complications (had to do 2 canals instead of 1 + antibiotics) and followup. As for your benefits, in my experience (SunLife) they could not possibly care less if you don't have enough money to cover emergency procedures, so you're probably SOL there, however with my plan I am allowed to dip into the following year's health spending amounts (the discretionary dollars not the per-item allocation dollars) which is designed to help out with unexpected scenarios like yours. Maybe check if you have that option?

Yeah, insurance companies don't give a fuck. They don't even have foresight. If they had covered laser eye surgery 15 years ago when I asked them (even partial coverage), they would have saved thousands on me from my glasses/contacts purchases.

They also don't cover (or allow money towards) implants, only bridges, which is ridiculous in 2019.

Pruveeo F5 dash cam, works fine for the price so far.

I checked the quote, and they quoted 4+ canals since its a molar. I checked the Alberta Fee guide and its almost on par with it. My insurance is through Great West Life...I still have about $600ish remaining from the $2K yearly limit. So if the quote is accurate, I'll be paying out of pocket $900 to get it done. I guess my new wheels will have to wait a few more months then They did allow me the option of having it pulled as well, which would of been $300-400. But they said I could develop issues later down the road with the upper tooth having no interaction with anything to bite down onto.

Ah, Ok maybe it's more for a molar - mine was not a molar. Sounds like you did fine then. Sorry to hear about your troubles, dental work is the worst and absurdly expensive.

I work with people who go to Mexico for dental work, it's way cheaper, you get a vacation out of it, and the dentists they see are USA educated. I'd probably look into to something like that if I ever needed multiple implants or something crazy expensive.

Daily NDVI satellite imagery for the farm (with a bunch of other features). GPS + drones/satellites + automation + variable rate equipment = very cool technology in ag these days.

I’m no farmer. But that is awesome.
