    The Black Company

    Keep us posted! I'd definitely be interested in a Pre-order. Signed up for their newsletter but I seem to miss more things these days the busier I am.

    Table saw :) *edit: not my picture and maybe not exactly how I'd do it lol. Probably want a higher fence to support the height of the piece unless you think your featherboard is sturdy enough and you can push from the top with no wobble.

    Woodworking

    What's the max height of your table saw blade and how wide (thick?) are you resawing? I broke down some 2x8s b/c I didn't want to plane them all the way down to 3/4".

    Funny, Strange, Random Pics

    They were tossing out books at the office and one of our managers likes to go through the cart and see what is being dumped. Came across these that are pretty cool. Log books from the early 1900s through 1950s or such. All handwritten and in mostly great condition for how old they are. Those...

    Nothing you're missing. I am just in the middle of the desk build and showed the method the original planner used and how I was going to do it for the sake of learning. It is over complicated and figure 8s that I've also used before would probably suffice, was me just spitting ideas out there...

    This is just a modification of the one you showed earlier, right? If it is stable enough and she likes it I would futz with it too much. If you wanted to work on different Leg / Apron stuff you could consider doing mortise and tennons or maybe just playing with how the apron meets the leg and...

    Let me know if you have any SketchUp questions, I'm really a total noob and switched over to Fusion360 but in principle there are a lot of similarities. One of my largest knowledge gaps is the follow tool (also no idea on OpenCutList, I saw it but didn't get it working before switching to...

    You can pick this up for $19 and test quite a bit. There’s some really nice examples of blue that people have achieved. Wood Dye - Aniline Dye 5 Color Kit - Wood Stain Kit I also have this which I’ve never used that was on sale for like $119. Need to try it out one day. TCP Global Complete...

    I’m so waiting for a hardcover release from one of the small publishers. Thinking about picking up all the paperbacks just to have copies in my bookcase for now since everything I have is on Kindle.

    Keyboards & Mice

    Fiancé does data analysis and is constantly doing numpad data entry, so this might make a great gift. Will try and pick one or two up (maybe a 2nd to go with my 10keyless) for a rainy day "oops I screwed up" gift.

    Nintendo Switch (previously NX)

    Thanks, exactly what I was looking for. And luckily there's an Overcooked 2 deal on the front page that is good to know since I'll have to rebuy it coming from the PS4 version. Guess I'll just use the little remotes that come from it and my 2x 8bitdo to have 4 controllers and 4 player if necessary.

    Nintendo Switch (previously NX)

    Any heads up or sites to track Switch deals? Always a day late to this and apparently missed the Switch + Mario Kart 8 bundles because that's exactly what I want. Seems to be in stock for $348 but was $299 (stealth edit b/c my initial amazon search didn't turn up but a Google link worked...)

    I mean the conversation isn’t about what gives the Best and Most accurate cut, it was about @Bandwagon not being comfortable with a table saw and @Cutlery not being comfortable with a circular saw. And then sprinkled in with handling 4x8 sheets of plywood at the end. I like that SuperMax...

    Woodworking

    Yeah 4x8 sheets I find much easier to rough cut with the circular saw then final cut out at the table saw. I broke down a sheet of 3/4” one day by myself and was like nope.

    Tracksaw. It isn't a requirement at all but could be a nice to have. As you mention Bora and other manufacturers have universal tracks that you can use on your circular saw, or you can go more specialized and buy one from Festool or similar. I have a version of this and hate it, Kreg makes one...

    Play area all wrapped up. I’m happy. 3yd of gravel and 7yd of cedar mulch. We’ll see how it stands up, but pretty close to how I envisioned it. And no, I didn't do that shit. I started it and walked away. Landscaping isn't for me. Gave it an honest try but think I'll stick to woodworking as...

    Peglin - Roguelike Peggle

    Yeah $20 is a hard pill when you look at the style and concept of the game. I had $25 in my Steam wallet and tend to value things based off how much time I think will be spent playing. In High School I worked in the campus library digital media lab (basically supporting our Mac Pros and large...

    Peglin - Roguelike Peggle

    In Early Access at the moment. Think Peggle + One of the recent deck builder roguelikes. Your Baby Yoda character faces off against different enemies each board. Shooting your rocks on the peggle board bounces them around. Each peg is worth +X damage you'll do against the mob. The board has...

    Had a little bit of time today to keep working on my writing desk project. Trying to do as "much" hand tool work as possible. From jointing to the planning of the top. Mortises will be done by hand but I'm not convinced I want to use hand tools on the rest. This has been fun but time to bring...

    Dual (2022) - 5/10. 🤷‍♂️ I like this. It was kind of dark, but still kind of funny, in an intentional sort of way. Wouldn't call it a dark comedy. It is kind of a bait and switch? Maybe that's the point. But it is somewhat interesting. Neither Karen Gillan nor Aaron Paul are particularly great...

    Malazan Book Of The Fallen

    Did you read Malazan? I'm pretty sure you have but can't remember the whole history of the thread. It is a deep book and pretty big commitment. I'd say only you could answer that knowing your son's interests. Dune as a standalone book that he could compliment/supplement with the various film and...

    Dark Cloud - 3/10; Wasn't bottom of the barrel terrible, it just wasn't good. Unfortunately not at all based on the video game from 2000. Really made me appreciate Tau as a much better "Evil House AI" movie genre. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt8130518/ https://www.imdb.com/title/tt4357394/...

    Thanks all. I went ahead last night and ordered the Q900A from a Woot! deal for $689. I'll give some impressions next week when it shows up. Sonos looked really good for what I want and maybe if I finish of another room we can migrate over to that ecosystem. Or if the refurb Q900A shows up and...

    Yeah I like the idea of being able to add the 8500 or 9500 rears, especially being wireless, if we wanted to add a bit of "something." May just go ahead and grab the Q900A tonight so it'll be here to play with this weekend. I doubt any big deals for Memorial Day will pop up (he says as a deal...

    So, I think instead of replacing this Yamaha I'm just going to go the soundbar route. My living room will never be 5.1 or 7.1 or 11.2.4 or a variation thereof. It just isn't set up to support that. At most it would be 3.1 and unfortunately the options for doing a 2.1 or 3.1 channel system these...

    The Grinder / Whetstone was the 2nd instance of a "not really smooth progression" feeling.

    For me Polora wasn't that bad but the Bear boss was a huge PITA. His chase was so much faster than the cooldown on my movement skill. I ended up having to use Polora's skill so I could backtrack to the previous position and use it has a double movement.
