I want to ventilate on how important PPE is since it's the last stop between you and disaster

First these screencaps

As you can see wikipedia clearly states the importance of PPE on motorcycles.
Had my little cousin taken PPE into account he would have survived the crash, given the fact that he had undergone Judo where you learn how to properly break a fall ( he had not)

I'm a PPE freak and use it for everything;
When I cook I use EN388 cutlevel 5 gloves, I use ANSI Z87.1 glasses when I operate machinery like my grinders and drills, along with proper body PPE and earmufs with an NRR of -24dB. Same when I do heavy drilling / demolition / jack hammering, where you need to protect your scrotum and intestines against violent shaking of the machines.

In trucks I have full truck PPE all the way down to my underware, esp designed for driving heavy trucks with heavy loads

If I still screwup I only need to swap out that part of my PPE set with a new one, deduct what went wrong and why, and make sure I dont repeat the mistake

I have been looking for a threat lock test video for a while luckily enough I found a nice one on this Torque test Channel

Treadlock is very important when you have fasteners that need to be threaded at a certain distance so that your outer your middle & inner Chain ⛓️ Rings are positioned property in comparison with the bottom bracket they are on

I love having over powered tools at my disposal
For me #threadedrods are easily cut with my 228.6mm inch Grinder from #Makita

However I need to cut rods from M8 all the way up to M24, en as you know low carbon steel quality 8.8 rods can't easily be cut with a small tool

I'm also much more comfortable with the lower RPMs of the massive grinder 6600 RPM instead of the gut wrenching 11,000 RPMs that small grinders rotate at
