So, a new workshop needs at least one new tool right? This is a swivel vice. It has two sets of claws, one with teeth and grooves for rod material (a godsend) the other claws are smooth safe for plastic It swivels around in many different directions to always have your work-piece right where it works best for you. And it has an Anvil on top, I've actually needed one in the past, so it's a nice bonus It cost about $24 from Harbor Freight Tools
Also built some painting jigs from dowel and workbench scrap lumber

Heh, I got stuck on the yellows for the hazard stripe. I been trying all the different Minitaire yellows, so far Bile is a pale yellow, but not quite "safety" enough for my likes.
And I was a good boy for over a week after release, but I finally bought Civilization VI and it kind of sucked me in. in my first game I learned that Ghandi is the ruthless, unpredictable warmonger, who will pretend he is your friend, then nuke you when you're least expecting it

Yes, timeless. You know Vik, I see whenever you start up Fallout 4. You're suitably addicted now yes?

Lol...well...it sucked me in for sure, but to be honest, wish it had more of a new Vegas kind of vibe....as somehow F4 feels a bit cold and clinical....play it often to blow off steam
Yep, It's a great game, but I miss the elements from the earlier titles too, especially the Karma System. I liked having consequences for your actions.

I figured it was time to check in here. I can figure the reason FO4 feels clinically cold is that the idea is seeping from the Institute which sees the Commonwealth as a giant lab experiment for them Vik. Science!........gone wrong.
Karma system for FO3, and the factions system with some karma in New Vegas, they helped guide you. Here you get to feel like the sole survivor, adrift, making decisions that can be good or bad and left clueless as to what effect until it comes home to roost!
Sneaky of them eh?

Fall Out must be one of them Kumpewtor games . Maybe when we get the kids an X-box or PS4 for Christmas I'll wind up getting into it......hopefully not as I waste too much time as it is.
On a side note, which system do you guys think would be better? PS4, Xbox, or a wiiu?

I can't recommend any console for Fallout, the PC version is superior in every way, (modding ability wins hands-down) but it does require a specialized graphics card that usually costs about as much as a console. However, others here can help you decide between consoles. We only use our WiiU for the Lego games. I do not understand how to aim effectively without frustration with an analog controller.

You can run a limited number of mods on console versions these days. At least FO4 (and new version of Skyrim).
Theo: PS4 vs Xbone breaks down to what you want out of it, and if you have friends that play on one or the other. PS4 is more of a pure gaming console, and has better specs in many regards (but still way under a hardcore gaming pc). Xbox One is a better multimedia machine, lots of tie ins with other windows devices, cable, general interneting, that kind of stuff. Any console exclusive game like Uncharted or Halo that gets your attention is worth considering too.
