March bendy spotter

The gimbal used to move the tracking scope around is actually quite an ingenious design. I have several tripod heads, some with knobs to twist, others with a pistol grip to move the scope on the ballhead, and a few simple ballheads. They work fine, for what they are, and if that's all you want to use, simply lock the gimbal on the tracking scope and have at it. But my experience has been that it's easier and much more intuitive to use the gimbal mount to move the tracking scope if you need small adjustments. Nothing to press, unlock, or release. Also, I have seen people mounting a couple of devices on a tripod, it's nice to be able to move the tracking scope without moving the entire head with the other doodads on it.
I'm thinking of a head with two screws, one for my spotting scope and the other for the tracking scope.

So you’re not typing your reply on something that includes parts from China? Your purchases never include anything from or that supports China?
Bullshit. You and others that get on this high horse look like fucking morons posting shit like this. We all hate China. We get it. We can avoid supporting them as much as possible and to each their own but get off the podium. You sound like a Vegan that has to tell everybody about it.
You make a really good point. We can't avoid made in China stuff, so we shouldn't bother trying.

Winning attitude, Dude.

Wisdom teeth removal

Only had the top ones done as they were the only ones interfering with anything. Was awake, but had a valium the night before, the morning of, then gas the whole time. Made it only that day on liquid diet, ate a whopper meal the next day, fries and all, and a large shake. Stitches bugged me the most, as they dissolved they would dangle down and drive you crazy.

Wisdom teeth removal

I had all 4 of my wisdom teeth removed at one time/visit by the oral surgeon when I was 16-17 y/o. He numbed me up pretty good but was not asleep by any means, and kept the meds coming since the roots for all 4 wisdom teeth were wrapped around my jaw bones (for lack of a better term and that's how he described). It took longer than he thought it would since a root tip broke off on 3 out of the 4, so he had to go "fishing" for the small broken tips to avoid infections, etc. The one tooth that did not break off a tip was the hardest to remove he said.

No pain meds for the aftermath, he told me to stop and get a 6 pack or 2, and don't drive after I started the pain prevention process. LOL. Mom was a bit upset with the oral surgeon for his "pain meds", especially when I got home with the beer.
Thanks to a lot of Dr's and dentists over prescribing oxy's for anything including a hangnail, dentists no longer can prescribe pain meds, not even Tylenol 3. Fucked over the rest of us who have legitimate issues. I have a 70 year old neck injury that has had me in level 6-7 pain since I was 5 years old. I have to almost fight the fuckers for 14 pills per month, about half what I should get. Fuck the DEA.While I'm at it, Fuck ATF.
