http://www.alloyandstainless.net/ I recently found this place and thought I would pass it along since they have the best prices I have seen. They only have a small amount of what they actually sell listed on the website. I would only use the website for the contact info anyway. It's best to...

I picked up this little fridge a couple of weeks ago. Have a friend that's going to put a new compressor in it for me. I think I might find a good use or two for it.

Here is what I recently got to replace all the cheap crappy digital thermometers I have been using. Found a good deal on it so I hope it lasts and works good. It look like the MTC that thermoworks is selling only it is a different color and has a different logo on it. The initial tests look...
