haha it is a learning process, no doubt. That is one of the reasons for installing them through the top, so that if one rusts or is otherwise damaged I can remove the top, pull the rod, and drop in a new one. For what it is worth these were $6 a piece. For the next step up that he showed me...

Look man, what one man does with his steel bars is his business, okay! Get off my back! Just kidding... I cut out and put together the carcass for a dog kennel this weekend. Didn't put the frame on because couldn't pick up the bars until Tuesday so went ahead and primed the inside while...

I was gonna give that a try too so good to hear it suggested. I’m not overly concerned with the rust, specifically, I have a wire wheel / brush for my drill that can be used. Polish isn’t the right word because it implies that it needs to be shiny or mirror or like stainless steel. And that...

I have 25 pieces of 30” 1010/1020 steel tubing, 1/2” outer diameter. Picked them up from the pipe supply company yesterday. They’re industrial looking, small bits of surface rust but nothing bad. I’d like to clean them up to be more presentable for indoor use. Was thinking about washing off with...

How it started: How it's going: I don't believe the play time. Lots of instances of leaving it up over night or throughout the day as I'm working and doing conference calls. Anyways, yeah, I either ended up really liking it or OCD kicked in.

I just skipped to the end of the thread since we haven't watched this yet. Last night we watched Predator 1 to get in the mood and the subtitles referred to the Predator noise as "whickering." Which seems more applied to horses but it is a new word to me.

Secretly it is a place to stick the kid when he’s bad. I think he can manage the blanket thing.

Won't buy one until Project Farm tests and approves!

Yeah I think it comes from our family who have always had dogs that slept in kennels for their life. Not in the "locked up" sense of the word, but they were trained and very happy going in there to take naps or going themselves when we left the house, etc. Otherwise they had mostly free reign of...

Yeah, I totally won’t be surprised at any outcome here or have my feelings hurt. Long term it’ll be maybe a good flat surface for the shop after I add some rolling wheels to it.

This is going to be an "in flight" project I think lol... But we want a kennel for the house so I have a sheet of plywood and two 10' boards of Poplar. So quickly put together something in Fusion and had to screw around with the layouts and make some concessions, but I think it will work. Going...

Went and bought some poplar yesterday. 5.15 bf for 4/4 is getting a little up there. It isn't as ridiculous as what you pay at Home Depot or Lowes. They're almost 15 bf for the same thing. It was almost better to buy cherry common boards at 5.00 bf but all they had was 5/4 and that's a little...

Agree there. It wasn’t the best but wasn’t bad. Kind of forgot about it after playing and had no idea there was DLC.

One I found online very comparable to that price. It was something like $400 but “on sale” for $200. But taking in to consideration theirs claimed dried for 2 summers and then kiln dried. Man I have no idea! Start on the high end and adjust I guess. Maybe a local hardwood place would give you a...

Was going to make a run to the hardwood store and was checking prices, remembered to look at their live edge walnut and they're listing at $16 - $20 bf. No other information on their price sheet about it.

That’s really pretty. I would totally make a top or small pieces out of that.

Is that the one that claimed X% of women are actually games because they play Gardenscapes on their iPhone? I'll actually read it later though b/c it seems interesting from skimming.

My wife’s Q0 came in yesterday or the day before and damn that thing is beefy and awesome. Just got her plain ole MX Reds but it really makes me want a Q3 or something similar for my work computer. You could lay someone out hitting them in the head with that Q0.

Up until about three weeks we led with safety messages, which was great. Job related safety tips and personal. Now it is not only mandatory that we lead with Diversity and Inclusion moments we are also required as part of our performance management and goals to read and contribute. At the threat...

Well I just got to this part...

Everything about this is offensively bad. It has to be accidentally this bad because I don't think you could purposefully achieve this level of terrible.

X-post from the gun thread. No idea what I’m doing but had an idea for a project so bought a D7000, built a "lightbox" for about $20 and bought some lights and a tripod of Amazon to learn and test things out before kicking off the main event. The point will be to focus more on the top rail and...

It was like a psychopath's wet dream. Hilarious and uncomfortably bizarre at times.

I actually really like Sharepoint. Initially when the company rolled it out to us it sucked. But whatever was going on behind the scenes they worked out and now it is great. With basically two clicks I can record a Stream video, upload it to a Sharepoint site, and email everyone that a new video...

All I see are places for sawdust to settle.

Nathan for You was pretty amazing. Hopefully this is good.

It is Wesker, by the way. Dr. Albert Wesker. Not “Whesker.”

Pretty happy with the sealing process so far. I'm learning a lot about quantity and realized that I used wwaayyy too much for the first coat. Like, way too much. Using Waterlox Classic. Application has been: -Sand to 220 (all pieces were sanded prior to assembly and I did a little touch up...

My previous house had a consistent leak of about 1.5 lbs a year of r22 and each year it was more and more expensive per lb. Guy said r22 is astronomical now and glad we replaced ours in the new house (see below). In this current house we had a whole unit fail this year that was original with...

If we believe leaks.

Yeah, if everyone is using Office 365 why not use that? We use that at work and all my files are shareable across all my RDPs sessions, laptop, etc and I can share with coworkers. It also shows up as a drive in my explorer as if it was more or less just a local folder. But I'm not sure how admin...

I found the real reason for their downfall. LTT Pillows.

You can probably find 24 in x 24 in stock that isn't plywood or MDF or other, but I guess are you not wanting to glue up panels? And just want a go to panel? At my hardwood store anything over 10in in width gets in to butt rape territory of pricing per board foot. It is much more economical to...

Can you get a home warranty thrown in with the close and have the HVAC replaced through that for "free?" If it is a rental I don't know the value of replacing it with anything but what the lowest bidder home warranty service company would use. Around here a 1-year warranty is a pretty standard...

My vote is for sub. Go with something from SVS or HSU. Didn’t realize these had dropped so much after buying mine a few years back: https://www.ebay.com/itm/304501097435?epid=26031092825&hash=item46e5ae03db:g:UwAAAOSwefJiDpRj Even a Monolith 12” isn’t priced bad. SVS had a step up program...

Why do you think I cropped the 2nd one so much?!

On the topic of making things for people. Got my drawers milled up and put together today. Was very exciting when they slid in the dividers and rails almost perfectly. The right one is a little tight so may spend a bit sanding down the spots that stick on the little test jig I cut to slide in...

Family, if they’re close I have done things for. Like my Mom and Dad close. My fiancé which is basically going in our house and she knows is test stuff for me to learn. Friends I did that hanging Murphy bar for and will never do anything else for a friend again, very likely. To me it is just...

It did all the outside work and the relief stuff inside too? That's crazy. Or are those lines at N / S where you joined two outside halves? That's really cool. Now do one of Norrath.
