I understand, I married a tight-a**ed Irish woman.. can't get anything past her, or out of her.

And I understand that its your hobby and enough said. It's the same here.

Wow! Pot and kettle thing all over.

Two trolls duke it out.

I don't get in their business and don't expect them to get into mine. Everyone seems to be uptight about something and always going off about nothing. So, if you have a problem with me then filter me out. And thanks for calling me names. It's real grown up of you. Don't bother to reply, i've already filtered you out.

Yeah and a few days ago I posted an OT concern about the increasing number of labeled and unlabeled off topic posts (including troll materiel); and as expected got criticized. But the fact is, I have been hanging out and contributing to this group for 10-15 years and had it has been a good experience. But the increasing number of off topic material (excluding spam) that appears to be coming for subscribers is increasing rapidly. If it continues rec.woodworking will become a useless wasteland just like one of our RV groups and others. The increasing amount of venomous name calling also directly follows the path that (

took. When I looked at rec.outdoors,rv. travel at the time of this post there were 28 items on the subject list and one was on topic. There is also a very large amount of fighting, name calling and profanity on that site.

What this group needs to understand is that many, maybe most, of us are woodworkers who spend time working in the shop, spending time with families, etc. We do not spend large amounts of time sitting in front of the keyboard plotting filtering strategies to protect us from the crap that shows up in these groups. When using a group becomes too difficult we just quit using it.

You won't miss me but as other folks fade away, as they have with other groups, you will miss the knowledge and resources these people provide.

Unfortunate but, some pride themselves with destroying groups and Usenet by infiltrating the group and constantly raising the grain of the types with the 20 grit personalities. Sometimes this takes a few sockpuppets and that is done on a professional calibre. I have seen too many groups bite the dust this way. This group has surprisingly survived a tonne of this BS.

One has to wonder that some editorialize so well, with so much time spent here, actually do any woodworking, at all.

Yeah but maintaining the site's integrity is easy:

1 - Don't post off topic 2 - If you are compelled to post off-topic, include "OT" in your subject line.

Don't get me wrong. There is nothing wrong with occasional jokes or good-intent banter. That is what builds camaraderie among us. But when a group gets recognized as tolerant of BS, the spammers, trolls and others flock like geese.

We are on the verge of becoming a sanctuary.

You, and you and me just violated those rules....LOL

That hose is NOT PVC pipe. Hose is safe if tied down often enough to keep it from swinging around and taking your eye out. There is, to my knowlwdge, NO PVC pipe made for air distribution.

I'm curious... Would covering the PVC with a plastic-like coating (like THHN/THWN wire) sufficiently reduce the risk of using PVC with compressed air? I guess the trick would become making sure the coating binds properly to the PVC and adheres properly with the PVC glue.

Looks like some ABS pipes might be rated for compressed air use, but that was only turned up after a quick Google search.
