I’d like to join you guys! You are welcome to do so! Jim T. Provided the link earlier. I have a Zoom deposition that is supposed to end around 3 pm so I should be there on time. Hopefully apathy will not prevail. We don't bite and nobody has to talk that doesn't want to. Be nice to see a good size turnout. Otherwise not sure of the need to hold furtherzooms. My 2psi. Mark

Yes, but if people aren’t really interested, what’s the point? That's CJ jus' living up to his moniker! One flop doesn't mean it's not going to work! See you all Wednesday the onest.

‘Sorry about missing the Zoom meeting. I tried to get on via cell phone from the grocery store (Chris wanted to get groceries after work). But that proved impossible. I tried the zoom link, and it was not allowed. I tried the phone link, three times, and got as far as the meeting ID. Went out to get it, and the phone timed out. “Sorry to not get the meeting ID. Goodby.” Then I tried again, with the written meeting ID and the meeting number, and she asked, “Please enter the password.” I again went out to get the password from here, and she said, again, “Sorry to not get the password. Goodbye.” By this time it was almost 4:00 PM, and I gave up. But, we got ten bags full of brocholli, some carrots, and a whole bunch of bananas.
I do have a story to tell, and will do so in a post.
John

That was fun, thanks guys! I couldn't sit in that position any more during the meeting, sorry! I was starting to get cramps between my shoulders from working on my house and it was just too uncomfortable for me, it felt like No. 6 in the image: I think we're hopefully starting to get on a roll now, no?

Nice meeting today. Vance showed us his current project and Stephan showed a nice RAM. I suggest that if you have a project that you would like to share that screen sharing is also a good way to show us your project or ask a question about a particular piece of equipment. Many of you already share pictures and videos on the Forum so screen sharing should be easy for you. As always, tech support (Di) will be available to help me.

As a follow up to our discussion, I got all those damn clips off the RAM. It’s puzzling and maddening that any manufacturer would think those are a good idea. Overall it went smoothly, I guess, but a couple removals resulted in scratching/chrome loss 😕 although I suppose the area of the clips will be covered by that ring clamp anyways
Speaking of which, what was the name again of that clamp that you guys recommend? Ideally I’d like to order one along with the duckbill if you know who likely could supply both.
Thanks

Thank you James. I decided to go with the eliminator since you guys seemed pretty impressed with it (and Luis you were involved in its development based on the VDH credits?)
I won’t clog up the thread anymore with my BS haha, hope to catch you guys on the next meeting!
