    I enjoy raking and bagging the leaves but wouldn't hate figuring something else out. Didn't try mulching last year but mowing with a bag didn't pick up nearly as many as I would have thought. The "sucking" of the mower is probably much less effective than just spinning it around and chopping...

    That’s a cool idea. I may get material this weekend and will go ahead and look at the Amazon option. I know that there were other “brand name” versions too. Wasn't 100% sure if that deserved a Word or a Thumbs Up.

    I'll offer a slightly different perspective from when I remodeled my 1st floor that included kitchen, living room, 1/2 bath, hallway. It was initially split tile / hardwood between the kitchen and living areas. When the water damage ruined the hardwood it "had to" all be replaced. I tested a few...

    Thanks for bumping a thread where I had not only the last post but an overly creepy one at that. Let's just say it was a different point in my life and things weren't going so well and move past. Great show though. It really was a "so bad it is good." And in retrospect I do agree with @Void

    Job Hunting

    Had a nice dinner tonight with the owner of a consulting firm and looks like we’ve reached an agreement to move forward. We settled at $125 / hr which is a little lower than I wanted but in the end should be fine. There’s language in our contract to rise $5/hr after 6 months and we’ll resign...

    When I’ve done this in Fusion it only involves making the depth and outline allowance. I figured it won’t be articulating in Fusion so placement and depth works to give me an idea. That’s not telling you anything you don’t know already. Actually having a hinge model would be useful. But there’s...

    I found a picture of a changing table with drawers, which really is just a dresser with a slightly different top which could then be added to / stacked with shelving or additional drawers down the line. I like that idea though. A place to put diapers, baby clothes, Etc and something to grow in...

    Did you ever see the thing they released with Black Flag? Probably was after that. But it was a site that tracked all your achievements from all your AC, had different unlocks, different DNA story stuff. Seemed like it had a ton going on behind the scenes. Then it pretty much disappeared one day...

    College Football 2022-23 Season.

    I’ll never understand how with a combined approximate 1,900,000,000,000 hours of football on record defensive coordinators still opt for this stupid bend don’t break prevent give up 15 yards a play set up.

    Such an uncharacteristically undisciplined Bama team. They get away with so many calls throughout the year but you can’t even hide how blatant these are. Oh hi Texas chick…

    That’s really awesome! How did you do the box joints? I have a project in mind that will require a ton and was considering building a jig or getting one off Rockler. I’d probably do the jig 1st just to see how it works out. In other news we just found out we’re expecting tonight. Already...

    It was an easy autobattler and early on p2w wasn’t really a requirement. My team could clear almost all the content and wasn’t any ultra rare people. I probably have a spreadsheet saved somewhere. The appeal was kind of like min/maxing your runs to see how efficiently you could grind something...

    As it pertains to this board, at least, my belief is the anti-consumer expectation was baked in. There were early reports that kicked it off and few people have any confidence that any company these days dare learn from their success. It was obvious Sony learned nothing about why the previous...

    Yeah I got about 20% through yesterday before falling asleep. Not because of the book, it was just late. Haven't re-watched the trailer since reading though. Some things are immediate "well they aren't going to be able to do that!" but could do similar concepts.

    It is sagging terribly. Basically has no chance of closing unless it is manhandled, which is how some of those pickets are already broken and pulled off. The posts themselves are 6x6s and seem very sturdy and supported but I need want to double check them before hanging anything else. All the...

    Agree. I almost made a separate scraps cart but ended up just throwing them in a tub and slid under my long bench. There's too many in there but I'm constantly using them to test cuts before doing the actual one so I feel justified. For the wall mount, on two levels of one of them I cut down a...

    I have two sets of the Bora wall mount wood storage and no problems believing the weight capacity. One of mine was irresponsibly loaded with scraps. I’d recommend those for sure. A couple of lessons learned about installing them and where if you eventually get them.

    My current gate situation I need to fix. I knew when we bought the house it would have to be replaced so glad we got a year and a bit out of it. Not scared about doing it myself but have never done a gate. There's about an 11" drop from post to post. I guess the point was to maintain the fence...

    As @Goatface mentioned there are a lot of styles for that.

    I hope this is true it just seems painfully naive unfortunately (not that you’re naive, painful for me to think about). Someone made the decision to do that and they’ll want/need to show a return on that investment. From doing what they’ve been doing would be a neutral so in steps so-and-so to...
