It's supposed to around 5-10 degree wind chill tomorrow when I leave for work at 5 a.m.
Very good possibility a vacation day is on the horizon.
Worry about driving on icy roads. We aren't used to it around here and the govt. doesn't "salt or sand" the roads.

Snow tonight. That's why I was out splitting wood while feeling like the wood was splitting me.

I can say $100 on a mod isn't out of the question, just wouldn't buy many. My Therion is the most expensive I own, followed by the dotsquonk. Before the B2K the most I'd spent in an rda way $40. 3 times. Same RDA...so yeah.

OK, I have a question for JFC and the Squonkers (lol), for debate's sake, lets say I was interested in an Athena setup as a starter rig. Opinions?

Seems a bit pricey considering what's available for less and how much more you can expect if you were to spend just a little more. Just my 2¢.

From what I hear it's solid. Think @Walter_Sobchak has one. Could be mistaken.
Either go that way or a Pulse

I am looking for advice from any Daedalus Pro users. My first experiment with it today was a decided failure and I think I had the wrapping wire screwed down too tightly - the wire holder didn't move back as it is supposed to and just continued to wrap wire on top of the wire. Is there a rule of thumb for how tightly the wrapping spool should be that someone can suggest or I am just going to have to get it figured out with trial and error? I know it has to be "just right." What the heck is "just right?" :D

I have the Athena, the Pulse and the Squeezer and IMO the Pulse is the best value in Squonking. Not really a fan of the Athena although I do use it occasionally. I don't like that I have to apply nooxid to the place where the fire button makes contact to prevent it from arcing and I'm also not a fan of either bottle it comes with. I actually like the Squeezer more than the Athena but not as much as the Pulse.
Hope this helps
