Pics of your latest purchase

Bought my first non Axial trail truck, a used VS410 kit off eBay. Gonna throw some 10.2 axles under it and a 10.2 3 gear in it because I don’t wanna spend $300 on Vanquish axles and a VFD (at least not yet, that might come later).

Check out the SSD Axles (straight). they're pretty damn good axle sets.


Ordered a Bundle of Reefs Ultimate Bundle. 300.00 for 400 plus in 1/10th scale geared stuff.
Pretty decent package which some will go into the H10 Kit when I get and start building it.












 
Woot.

 
Candy cart is pretty 10th scale, ain't it?
Also was able to grab the $59 M12 brushed screwdriver from HD. I use the Fuel version for work but this should be perfect to keep in the house. Maybe even for the RCs.

EDIT: Added shopping Biff for scale 😆

Tractor supply store had a sale on the big buddy heater, for a Benjamin. couldn't pass it up, as I use my smaller buddy heater on the regular. Now when they're not working they can go fishing together. lol
I have a bigbuddy in my garage (1.5 car length wise). When it's 39* outside, my garage sits at 51*. I can bring it up to 63* in a couple hours. Those things are awesome. Especially if you have the adapter and hose to run it off of BBQ tank instead of the coleman bottles.
 
A roll of some HS tpu in black and, lol, and a roll of 'low speed" tpu in clear. I've also been getting cold feet, so some heated socks for theScreenshot_20241202_002819_Amazon Shopping.jpg 🐷
 
Decided to grab a HW Axe R3 540 2800kv combo. Amain has 20% HW coupon, which comes to around the same amount if you bought off the HW site. I have their Axe R2 3300kv 550 and love it.
I have a vew of the R1 AXE Systems. a 2300 combo in the RC AXE Rig, and put a 3300 combo in my Redneck Blazer buid.
I was going to get the new R3/3300 for the H10, but the 3300 is too long so also picked up the r3/2800 combo from Amain.
But had I been a bit more observant, got an email from HW the weekend prior to Thanksgiving, and I check out the site, and they had the AXE Combos for 123.00. I thought it was all R2 stuff so passed it over, but turns out it was a 'EARLYBIRD" special on entire site basically and it was the R3 ESC and 2800 combo. Could have got it for another 60.00 off. SMDH.
Amain order may be here tomorrow for me, 1 of them anyways,
 
  • Knocking out a wall between the Master and another bedroom. Will also wall off the extra un-needed doorway.
  • All the carpet on the main floor and basement is being replaced with LVP. Will most likely do the stairs as well.
  • I'll be running Cat 6 network cable everywhere
    • 2 drops in living room
    • 1 drop in each bedroom
    • 2 WiFi access points (maybe a 3rd AP if the Garage needs stronger coverage)
    • 1 from the Utility room to Office (will support a 8 port switch for the two bedrooms and gaming lounge and the 1 AP downstairs)
    • 6 - 4K Cameras all PoE (Power over Ethernet)
    • Doorbell Cam w/ remote chime all PoE
Escrow closed today. Last week I flew up and did a walk through of the house.

Huzzah! Well, multiple points to celebrate really. I fly up in two weeks to knock out the wall and get that moving. Rip out carpet and prep for LVP flooring throughout the house. No need to run Cat6 cable. Previous owner already ran Network and Telco jacks in every room with Cat5E cable - so I can clip off the telco jacks and pop in RJ45 keystones - Bam 2 drops in every room. My test equip states it'll all hold a minimum of 1gig speeds and power over Ethernet on every run. So, That'll do for now!

So now I just need to replace the water heater, get ISP setup and run 5 cable drops for cameras and WiFi access points, get the cameras and AP's up, HVAC and garage opener sync'd on the new WiFi, along with said wall and carpeting. Then fly home and figure out scheduling for flooring crew, drywall and electrician.

I decided I'm running a 220v drop into my office for my Ham radio gear, and also installing a whole home surge suppressor.
Which is my "latest purchase". :ROFLMAO: 😭 💸💸💸💸💸
 
Guys, I have a confession. I'm giving it all up and making the change! Moving forward, my name is JaneTheRipper! I dress pretty and play with Pokemon so my hair will probably be a rainbow of colors and may change at any instant. 🤣

Kidding of course! I ain't no tranny! I have been spending most of my free cash Christmas shopping for my girlfriend and her son though. Black Friday and Cyber Monday were expensive! I quickly totaled it up yesterday, so I'm probably missing a few things, and I've already spent over $485 on him and I'm $420 deep on her and I'm not done yet! I think he is finished, but I know for sure that I will get her more things. She spoils me. Also got some things for my mom and nephew.

I did manage to get myself a few things, but none have arrived yet.

I gotta get packing, so this should help with keeping my hand held power tools organized, and in one place. Well, the owner of the lhs texted me a while back, saying that he got one of the 1/8 crawler 2in1 brushless systems in stock. Time to try it out in something.

That's one of the next tool investments probably, is modular tool storage. I was thinking Packout at first because I use Milwaukee power for work, but I also don't want red so I will mostly likely end up with Flex Stack Pack since I'm a fan of the gray.
