I ended up taking apart a Ryobi pressure washer, mounted it on the garage wall, mounted a reel on an arm that swings out towards the driveway when I'm using it outside but locks into place when I'm not.

During fall/ winter months I pull the car into the garage and spray it down, takes 30 seconds and uses a fraction of the water compared to doing it with a garden hose sprayer.

Edit:
Here's a crappy pic of iteration 1, excuse the unpainted walls and the use of garbage materials, at the time I was just trying to see how I like it and what changes I wanted to make.

Sorry for the hijack

That's a nice setup! I have a laundry room right off the garage so I can fill up buckets of water easily. I really just want to use the portable pressure washer to rinse off the car. I don't think I will need a lot of PSI for that. I'm hoping the Ryobi will work.

Heading to Bonaire with my kid in a few week - trying to get over 22 dives in. Thought I'd update the dive computer for the trip. Also getting some new dive lights for night dives.

Need to remove a seized bolt from my Wrangler's suspension so I picked up a cutoff wheel and some new ratchets. I never owned anything Gearwrench but I've read they are good for the price.

Yeah, I also have the AW6 and like it a lot.

Gearwrench is well built and has a great warranty.

Grabbed some sandbags for a new workout program I bought from Mountain Tactical Institute.

Driver's side door handle was starting to peel.

Upgraded my snow shovel. I mostly use a snow pusher and bust out the snow blower for anything I can't power thru w/ a pusher. I still have a 30" but am adding this 48" beast since I have a big driveway. It barely fits in the X1.

I'll try putting down some urea nitrogen as part of my lawn winterization so I picked up 150lbs of a 33-0-4. I'll put it down once the lawn is dormant and temps are well below 50F.

Also got a can of fluid film to try on the snow blower and maybe lawn tractor deck.

The 10W-40 is for changing oil on my string trimmer.... haven't done it....ever....in 3 seasons. Probably should.

Ordered this book way back in April and it has finally arrived

HFW003 · 10-16-2021, 03:33 PM

I picked these little beauties up yesterday, one of my favourite sweet treats!

Molto Bello!

Our03z4 · 10-16-2021, 06:13 PM

Just bought this guy. 2016 Audi A8L with the 4.0T. 0-60 in 3.9sec but with the APR tune it gets down to 3.5 seconds, not bad for a 4,800lb car. Been wanting this car for years, will only be used for weekends and such.

Murf993 · 10-16-2021, 06:50 PM

Time to upgrade the sound system....not the last item I bought but that was a rifle so this is good right?

I'm surprised you're only using it for weekends, seems like the perfect daily driver.

I own a couple contractor companies so my daily is a truck unfortunately. But I do plan on upgrading to the new EV f150 in the next couple years, pretty incredible how nice they're getting. I'm just tired of using rough riding sporty cars on the weekend so this should be a nice change. My tastes are definitely changing as I get older.

You may be taking the "man cave" thing a bit too far

I've installed the stereo in a cut out in my fireplace that was probably for wood at some point, the fireplace is now gas so I wanted to fill it with something.

Mintsopoulos · 10-18-2021, 12:22 PM

Seems like the only thing Ive been buying lately is guns and knives haha.

Since you're in Chicago that sounds about right.

Splurged on great seats… for May 2022. He and Sebastian Maniscalco were both at Hard Rock Hollywood (separately) the same week we were out of town around Labor Day, which was some bad timing.

Joe T · 10-18-2021, 06:29 PM

USed company money but wired just over $60K for one of these. All kitted out with shelving, tie downs and ramps

Dropped off for wrapping this afternoon

What's this work horse being used for? A buddy of mine just picked up a couple of Ford Transits. They'll be Data/Fiber trolley's.
