He thinks you and I are the same person. Those references to all those different nyms used, including a bunch of his Facebook friends? I'm the one who did that. I still do it. It's great.

Toy, lol. There are people, even in the US where we have so much wealth *on average*, who have so little that an inexpensive electric bike would be a great boon to them.

Don't always focus on your own personal needs.

Or roads with *no* room for big cars. I was in New Orleans and there are l ots of roads where cars barely fit and no place to park. I'm near Myrtle B each now and people here use electric golf cart things to get around *legal ly*. I saw one at the supermarket yesterday. I expect electric bikes woul d be even more popular since you don't need a parking space!

They're (golf carts) are street legal here, too (though not on state highways) and there are golf cart paths throughout the city I work in and in other areas of the county. Grocery stores have golf cart lots, as does the high school. Instead of kid's cars in the lot, there are a hundred (perhaps more) golf carts parked in the cart lot.

The retail price on the current crop of eBikes is over $2000. No, I don't think the poor will be riding them. They might pedal a regular bike, though.

you can get an ebike for half that, just like cars etc. they come in wide range of prices

but they are substantially more expensive than a regular bike

A good bimetal hole saw in a 1/2" drill works pretty well freehand if you have only a few to do and no better equipment.

In 1" steel plate? I beg to differ.

Please point me to a URL of what you consider to be a "good bimetal hole saw".

Also, I don't think it can be done properly without something to secure the drill and keep it perpendicular to the steel plate. The big problem with a hole cutter is that there is no path for the chips to exit. The cutters get instantly clogged with chips, causing the hole saw to ride up on the chips instead of the cutting teeth. Pushing down on the hole saw just packs the chips in harder. The few times I've used a hole saw on anything thick, I've had to repeatedly extract the hole saw and clean the chips out with a wire brush every few seconds.

I was looking at various YouTube video demonstrating the difference between annular cutters, and various forms of hole saws.

This one uses a carbide tipped hole saw. Notice the total lack of chip relief: "Carbide Tipped vs Hole Saw vs Annular Cutter - Which is best to drill thick metal - steel - iron"

Here's one guy suggesting that one can use a bimetal hole saw through "steel" which turns out to be sheet metal: "Hole Saws & How To Use Them!! The Cheap, Effective Way To Drill Through Steel!"

"Larger Annular Cutter with AutoDrill 5100 - Interrupted Cut! - AutoDrill"

The original video I cited compares an annular cutter, twist drill, and hole cutter through 1" steel. The only thing wrong with the annular cutter was the price and the weird tangle of chips. The other methods had some fairly obvious problems: "Drill big holes in 1" thick steel - Fastest way? - Iron - Metal - Aluminum - Large Drill Press"

There are some more videos showing annular cutters in action: I tried to find videos on using a hole saw to cut thick steel. Not much available: This is the closest one, that claims to do 1/8" steel, but shows 1/6" in the video: Notice the rocking motion of the hand drill needed to help clear the chip load. As the material gets thicker, that becomes impossible.

Incidentally, annular cutters (like RotaBroach) require minimum deburring and are sufficiently accurate that I don't need to ream the hole to size.

You are a true idiot. There is a standard method for detaching a drill chuck, and it has been around and WORKS for decades.

All that is required is a traingular or hex shaft be locked into the chuck that has a T welded onto it. One strickes the T rod on the side to cause counterclockwise torque and the chuck pops free. Been that way forever. Small chucks can even be popped free by using the chuck key as the strick element. Where have you been? Jamming shit into the gears is NOT the way. Hell, you could have called DeWalt customer service and gotten that information.

It requires NO access to your gearcase or any other element of the drill in some lame attempt to lock its rotation.

You likely have a hard time opening a jar of food as well, because you cannot understand that a single rap on the bottom of the jar frees the lid for easy removal.

What part of it sounds like hassle? The part where you take ten seconds to plug in a cable when you park or you have to press a button on the dash to change the operating mode? there's no overnight street parking in her area anyway so I have to park in a parking lot elsewhere regardless

For an all electric car on trips you have to plan your stops to charge beca use there aren't chargers on every other street corner. But he convenientl y forgets that 95% of driving is local where you have to make a stop and ha ndle a dirty, smelly gas pump hose to fill your tank. At home I just plug in my car and never worry about charging for local trips.

I just bought my Model X and put 4800 miles on it on a trip. It was pretty fun and actually had some people talk to me at chargers. Once was a coupl e with a Model 3 (two of them actually) who I talked to for an hour when I was planning to get a bite. I had to order to go and eat at the hotel, lol !

All in all it was a great trip and a valuable learning experience. Probabl y the best part of the trip was realizing that with the regenerative brakin g I don't have to baby the accelerator to get good mileage. The awesome ac celeration lets me merge into traffic so much easier and I don't need to wo rry about shortening my range. What does shorten the range is higher speed s just like in a gas vehicle. If I stay under the speed limit it goes furt her than the expected range and when I hit slow traffic the range extends e ven further! Yesterday I was trying to skip a charger and make it 220 mile s with about 260 miles starting range. I hit some patches of traffic on th e way and ended up with about 60 miles on the battery when I stopped to eat and recharge.

Once there are a lot more Superchargers around you will be able to just pul l off the highway at any exit and charge as much or as little as you need. You will also have a lot more choice in the type of establishment you stop at.

Yeah highway merging is one of the "killer apps" that once you experience in an EV you really don't want to go back to doing in a regular four-banger economy car.

Sometimes I have to though and you end up annoyed at the lack of "go" a lot of economy cars have even with 150, 175 horsepower. Where is the go! C'mon it is go-time!
