Okay, I'll try to be patient then. I would hope it goes through, because it's not even in my bank account's transaction history.

Call their number; 1-800-645-7270. The last order I made was right at a year ago on the 22nd of June-for which I received an “order acknowledgement” immediately, then arrived 3days later on June 25th, along with another email saying it had been delivered. I used them for many years on the business side in the maintenance dept. at the plant as well. Checking status isn’t bitching-it’s standard procedure/due diligence imo..

Thanks for the number, considering they had a few days off for the 4h, I’ll wait until Monday if they haven’t processed it by then. I got the acknowledgement on the 2nd, but they haven’t charged my card or anything yet.

Did you pay via PayPal?

There was no Paypal option so I just used my card.

Contemplating painting my SK body either flat black, or pearl black

View attachment 240427

Yeah, I've decided on pearl black. Probably a lot easier to paint anyways considering you'd have to mask off the outside windows for the flat clear, and the body doesn't come with two sets of window masks. With the pearl clear you just paint that inside the body and then lay the color down.

so on top of all the hair on fire going on around here. plus a run on encapsulated coils that everybody wants yesterday. here, here's a small total PITA project that has to be done just so or it's not going to work. oh and the idiot customer didn't bother to send the F'ing mechanism with the coil so I'm basing measurements off the deformed original. and it absolutely has to have the F'ing recess in the center which is just going to complicate the living hell out of the whole stupid i don't want to do it job. is there somewhere i can just go yell the F word while beating something with a bat?

Only if you expect to get different results.

just had my first run in with a tiger mosquito for the summer. bastard got under the desk and bit me twice before i knew it was under there. the good news is it's dead now. the bad news is i got bit twice and those tiger mosquito bites royally suck , so I'm in for a very uncomfortable week.

Stupid me, I turned my swamp cooler on earlier today but forgot to turn the water on outside.
The water all evaporated and has been running warm for the last hour.
The pump is still good though and running cool.

That's the scary part of getting old I guess. Depressing as heck.

MSC doesn't want my money I guess, so I'm buying the calipers somewhere else.
