Not sure what that is hanging underneath, but it sure doesn't look like it has much clearance.

If that's the J&M Elites, that's a great price over buying them direct.

A little jaunt on sunday took me to Popeye's home town. I've never seen him though!

So far I've had the cheap and the Elites in the J&M's and I can tell you there is a world of difference between the two. The only thing that I would use the cheap ones for was the intercom. It drove me nuts to try to listen to music through them. They were horrible for music. The thing I don't understand is if they can make a $20 pair of ipod headsets sound so good, why don't they use that same technology in these types of headsets. Some of those ipod headsets sound great and are not expensive. The set I use while running sound awesome. I've thought alot about trying to figure out a way to use those in my helmet.

Tools Explained DRILL PRESS: A tall upright machine useful for suddenly snatching flat metal bar stock out of your hands so that it smacks you in the chest and flings your beer across the room, denting the freshly-painted project which you had carefully set in the corner where nothing could get to it. WIRE WHEEL: Cleans paint off bolts and then throws them somewhere under the workbench with the speed of light . Also removes fingerprints and hard-earned calluses from fingers in about the time it takes you to say, 'Oh ****!' SKILL SAW: A portable cutting tool used to make studs too short. PLIERS: Used to round off bolt heads. Sometimes used in the creation of blood-blisters. BELT SANDER: An electric sanding tool commonly used to convert minor touch-up jobs into major refinishing jobs. HACKSAW: One of a family of cutting tools built on the Ouija board principle... It transforms human energy into a crooked, unpredictable motion, and the more you attempt to influence its course, the more dismal your future becomes. VISE-GRIPS: Generally used after pliers to completely round off bolt heads. If nothing else is available, they can also be used to transfer intense welding heat to the palm of your hand. OXYACETYLENE TORCH: Used almost entirely for lighting various flammable objects in your shop on fire. Also handy for igniting the grease inside the wheel hub out of which you want to remove a bearing race. TABLE SAW: A large stationary power tool commonly used to launch wood projectiles for testing wall integrity. HYDRAULIC FLOOR JACK: Used for lowering an automobile to the ground after you have installed your new brake shoes , trapping the jack handle firmly under the bumper. BAND SAW: A large stationary power saw primarily used by most shops to cut good aluminum sheet into smaller pieces that more easily fit into the trash can after you cut on the inside of the line instead of the outside edge. TWO-TON ENGINE HOIST: A tool for testing the maximum tensile strength of everything you forgot to disconnect. PHILLIPS SCREWDRIVER: Normally used to stab the vacuum seals under lids or for opening old-style paper-and-tin oil cans and splashing oil on your shirt; but can also be used, as the name implies, to strip out Phillips screw heads. STRAIGHT SCREWDRIVER: A tool for opening paint cans. Sometimes used to convert common slotted screws into non-removable screws and butchering your palms. PRY BAR: A tool used to crumple the metal surrounding that clip or bracket you needed to remove in order to replace a 50 cent part. HOSE CUTTER: A tool used to make hoses too short. HAMMER: Originally employed as a weapon of war, the hammer nowadays is used as a kind of divining rod to locate the most expensive parts adjacent the object we are trying to hit. UTILITY KNIFE: Used to open and slice through the contents of cardboard cartons delivered to your front door; works particularly well on contents such as seats, vinyl records, liquids in plastic bottles, collector magazines, refund checks, and rubber or plastic parts. Especially useful for slicing work clothes, but only while in use. SON-OF-A-B*^%H TOOL: (A personal favorite!) Any handy tool that you grab and throw across the garage while yelling 'Son of a B*^%H!' at the top of your lungs. It is also, most often, the next tool that you will need.

WTB .. Anyone got a pair of Khromewerks muffs?
slick97spirit replied to SilvrT's topic in Watering Hole
Definitely louder but not obnoxious. I went from RK's to Kromewerks & love the sound. The RK's had the baffles drilled out & still just not enough for me.- 16 replies

I would have drained the oil & gas out of the 69 Grand Prix and put it up on blocks until the kids grew up and moved out. Also wish I had joined the Marines. That's my biggest regret.

I was once told by a professional upholsterer that Armour All was one of the worst things you could put on a vinyl dash or motorcycle seat. That it actually will cause it to dry out and crack faster because it is a petroleum product. I don't use it anymore. I have no way of qualifying his statement, but I figure if anyone would know, he would. Just thought I would pass the info along.
