    new DRL laws

    We turn them off for a number of reasons. Mostly being as soon as you drive into the shop the lights come on and stay on any time the key is in the on position. Quite often we might have to have the key on for a hour or more while doing some work and don't want to run the battery down or have...

    The Bad Riders of Ontario Thread

    I actually don't remember any major collisions before the roundabout was installed. Didn't see any, didn't see much in the way of broken parts or absorb-all piles in the intersection. Never read about any rash of major accidents there. That's why I was so surprised the wasted money on a...

    Netflix and Prime video sound issues .

    I used to have issues with Netflix where the video and audio were not quite synced. The audio would be delayed just enough to be irritating. It has nothing to do with your problem, and it eventually worked itself out. I just like to share.

    Low / No Stock

    They still use ductile cast iron in some applications, but it's mostly gone the way of the Dodo. Most watermains 100-600mm are PVC or DIP. Larger than that and you start getting into reinforced concrete or concrete encased welded steel.

    Low / No Stock

    PVC watermain pipe is becoming very scarce. Expect all those summer time construction projects involving watermain to be delayed by months at this point. Once the pipe arrives at site though there are no foam swabs to clean it as there is a shortage of resin to make them and there is also a...

    Motorcycle Safety Certificate Checklist (Ontario)?

    20 years ago when I was still an apprentice a book of 10 safety certificates cost $125 so $12.50 each and you had to pick them up in person in St. Catherines.

    Daily sports car?

    I had a 2015 Genesis Sedan with the AWD and the 3.8L and it was hands down one of the most fun cars I have ever owned. The V8 version would be a monster.

    Just a humorous car story from a few weeks back

    I am familiar with the Fiero and all of it's quirks and oddities. I'd still rather have one of them than any Ferrari or Lambo.
