    Wasnt trying to start a war or anything. Honestly at the time it was kind of last minute thing I had to have done. It was middle of winter, my shit went out and I did not have $2-3K just lying around for a new furnace, I was like 24 at the time. So I called my buddy. But I was surprised on the...

    I also wanted to add I found a good youtube series about building a shed. Pretty good and it pretty much explains all the steps from the floor to the roof and even how to paint it, lol. Looks even easier than I thought. Probably a 2 weekend deal if you have all mats on hand and ready to go...

    LOL, I got an 80% furnace installed by my buddy (HVAC DUDE) in my old house around 2000 for $500 (cost of the furnace) and a 1/2 LB of weed back when I used to grow it. He would of done it for free for me, but he needed some "incentive" to get his lazy ass to do it. Took him like 4-5 hours...

    The "Shit I just bought" thread

    I bought that boxed foam mattress from costco. It was about $800 for a king. It sleeps well, it even has a layer of memory foam on top. But the sex is not as good as an old school spring one. Have to get the wife on the edge, anything in the middle is just not good, you kind of sink in and it...

    I always thought that this was going to be the next big thing in gaming. Zombie survival type games with building and PvP thrown in. Too bad that a good company did not get in on the action. Instead we got some arma 3 mod guys and Smedley, lol.

    Thats probably the way to go but to much work, plus I dont want all that gravel in my yard.

    It wasn't a 1:1 replica, but the formula was definitely copied. Shit, their two prolific WoW designers were old EQ raiders.

    Those were fun games, my kids still play these all the time, especially the last one, after 2, my son was just playing it this week with his buddies. Its a cool FPS MP PvE which is kind of lacking in the marketplace. Most MP FPS are all about PvP.

    IMO, brining is for the bigger cuts of meat, rather than cuts like pork chops and such. I would use it for something like a pork loin roast, or whole chicken or turkey. I never brined single cuts of meat before, but I would imagine that a simple marinade would serve that purpose better than a...

    Where are the Euro style MMORPGs lately?

    Dude, the entire point of these games is different. EQ was all about gear, gear and gear progression, making those numbers higher and higher through defeating bigger and badder monsters including raids that were 50+ people. This game is not really about gear. You can buy the best gear at lv...

    Nice box, but you could of spent more time and did a bit of dado or lock miter jointery, also with the lid you could of lined the edges with hardwood edging or even an iron on plywood edging for that finished look and also so they dont splinter in the future.
