Finally got my box filled!

Finally was left alone long enough to get my gun parts organized. Now I just gotta do this 2 more times for my other techs. I specialize in wunderbar and taprite barguns AMA

Men like to get their body filled from time to time as well :)

I was desperately trying to figure out what kind of gun parts those were and why so much of it was plastic and whether wunderbar and taprite were trendy new variations on picatinny rail or something... suffice it to say, we obviously think of different things when it comes to "guns" and "gun parts".

That's my favourite part 😂 it's not a thing anyone thinks about outside the industry.

I do want a tattoo that says "suns out, guns out" and it's two barguns touching tips.

It was well done, you got me. :)

Funnily enough a tattoo machine is often called a 'tattoo gun' too, although i believe tattoo artists prefer calling them tattoo machines.

I think a lot of industries call their thing a gun actually. We use an android phone with a scanner at work for all sorts of things (product inventory, order management, assigning electronic tags, article lookups, etc) and most of us call it the gun. Its predecessor did look like a gun, so the origins of the name make sense, the name just stuck after we switched to a phone with a built-in scanner. We also have a date gun, which prints off best before date stickers.

Men: "I finally got my box filled!"

"Can we see?"

"Sure!"

impressed men sounds

"That's one fine lookin' utility box!"

Women: "I finally got my box filled!"

"You're cheating on your husband???"

"......yes? But that's not what I'm talking about. Look at this jewelry box!"

jealous sounding women noises

"Oh girl, look at all those diamonds!"

The second wil go much faster.

It already is 😂 my warehouse is packed. It's not as bad as when I took over the department as it's been 2 years of slowly working through all the hoarded trash. Shit I could start a soda museum with the amount of old equipment we have. I love joking with bartenders their equipment is older than them.

I have a bunch of these, they are great. One is just for IKEA hardware, because we moved so much and would lose or break a fastener during take down.

I have one just for PC screws from occasionally building basic workstations at my job.

BCsven@lemmy.ca · 2 pts · 226d

That's a good looking tray of organized fasteners.

TIL those things have a name.

HertzDentalBar@lemmy.blahaj.zone · 4 pts · 227d

Here's a other but if knowledge, there's generally two types of system, Premix and Postmix.

Premix product comes premixed with soda and is ready to dispense like a keg.

Postmix is the opposite, most barguns I work on are this style and generally all fountains you'll see are this style. Basically bag in a box, hooked upto a pump and it mixes in the nozzle of the gun. Flowrate dictates Brix(syrup to water ratio) so you adjust that to calibrate using little screws.

All I see are bits and bobs, I have no clue how any of that works lol. What are the parts that fail most often?

HertzDentalBar@lemmy.blahaj.zone · 2 pts · 227d

Generally the little o-rings in the top right of the image. They get the most physical wear and tear as they have a small metal rod moving up and down past it every time you press the button. It happens the most with your soda/still water as that is pressed every time along with the sryurp.
