My favorite build for it is a 7 wrap, 20ga wire, 3mm diameter Kanthal, clocks at around .3 ohms. Flavorful vape. You need a lot of turns for those attys!
Snow talk for us subtropical people are very strange. We are used to sliding in very rainy weather but not in snow. I imagine it must be very stressful to drive.
Good morning all.
Bitter cold and snowing here in Toronto. Perfect weekend to binge on munchies and Netflix – think I’ll have to give my personal chef Uber a call. Also a good weekend to spend some quality time with the kitty. She has been extra affectionate lately since I agreed to purchase a Retro Encabulator for her Dooms Day machine – hence the lack of shiny’s from me. And who said cats are cheap pets (masters).
This morning I woke up to her sitting, purring just inches away from my face. After breakfast we played jump on my shoulders, jump off my shoulders with purring headbutts for a good 20 minutes followed by belly and chin scratches while laying on my keyboard. She is currently in the living room yelling for me - I suspect she wants me to move the couch so she can retrieve a toy….or better put, so I can retrieve a toy for her to swat back under the couch. She gets great amusement from this. I can only laugh.

Perhaps just some better tires are in order? Something winter/snow rated (with the tri-peak mountain and snowflake symbol, not just a M+S (mud and snow rating)):
Actual snow tires do help a lot. I found that despite traction control, ABS, all that stuff (although a manual transmission is real handy for engine braking) going slow and rolling up to the stop sign then light pressure on the brake for the stop is reliable. When I drove a rear wheel drive I'd always try to get extra weight over the rear wheels to help weigh it down. For a small car I used 2 20 pound bags of kitty litter, one over each wheel well. Served a dual function if you were parked snowed in and needed to throw some under the tires for extra traction to get yourself out.
And there's always the nerve wracking controlled skid when an actual turn would make you spin out. I hate winter driving.

Too late. They’re all out. Lol. I’ve been snowed in for over a week in a surprise blizzard. I never blow off snow predictions, and never wait till the last minute.
My husband had steel blocks about the size of a boot box he’d put in it. But they weigh about 80lbs each. I can’t lift them. I can’t put a bunch of stuff in it, because that’s where I put the groceries. Luckily I don’t have to go anywhere usually when it’s crappy out.Put some weight in the bed, if you haven’t. Should help the swing slide slip
You buy enough groceries to fill a truck bed
? I’m going shopping with you! My mom is 83 and quite resourceful. She went to Home Depot, bought 4 bags of quik-crete. Had them put 2 bags over each wheel well. When they got wet, they turned into four bags of sealed concrete. You could still put stuff on top of them if needed
Imagine if you sprayed your kitchen floor with cooking spray, got drunk, had wet feet, and tried to dance in the kitchen. Our snow is not always horribly deep or really slippery. Today, just a dusting so far, but warm, fine, and wet and about as slick as I’ve ever seen. Seems I’m not alone in having an issue with it today here, because there’s about 1% the normal traffic, and everyone is going half speed.
That gave me a panic attack lol
No but I’m short! I’d have to climb inside the bed to reach the wheel wells!You buy enough groceries to fill a truck bed
