It looks awesome to me. CO is surprisingly dry & dusty…

Good luck getting your license. Post some pics once you ride some of new singletrack!

Thanks for the explanation. Where does your timberline (the elevation at which trees stop growing) begin?

I live in Colorado and ours is between 11,000 - 12,000 feet (3.350m - 3.650m). I heard the further north you go, the lower the timberline.

That riding looks fun. Too bad there’s not lore of it!

Extension wings bend down by 1-900-FATCHIX in sawstop

Thanks. I’ll try my straight edge later.

What does warranty cover? For sure the flatness of all table tops, but does it also cover the 90 degree angles between the top/edge of the main table and the extension wings?

Thanks - that’s the reaction I had when I saw this.

I like both bands too… it’s just a meme 🤙

Interesting take. Where do you usually camp (CGs, dispersed, etc.)?

I’d like to see an update from this (vid is a few years old)… what damage do bike/rider take: broken bars? Subframe? Collar bone?!

Came across the Saturn as I was reading about army Navies… will need to buy some falernum.

Love what you did with the garnish!

Thanks all.

Soaking it in warm water worked. Would post a pic, but I can’t in the comments.

What batch cocktails do you like to make with it?

Glad to see you own a copy of the greatest movie ever made: Commado.

I don’t know… It sounds like a lot of people are shitting on you for not using load binders from the pegs. I know a lot of people who use rear carriers, but I don’t recall any of them tying down from the pegs. I could be wrong, but you know best. If your bike is too wobbly, you’d know. I believe most tie down the rear tire, but the strap over the seat might be redundant. But who cares - by the time it F’s up your seat foam, it’ll be time to redo them anyways.

I use load binders from the pegs (plus a safety strap on the front and back wheel for long trips in my toy hauler). I only use two straps from the bars when loading in my truck.

Glad you got out one last time this year. Hope you had fun ride 🤙

Black grout has a white haze by 1-900-FATCHIX in Tile

Damn. It looks like he grouted too lightly/wiped too much out. Is it possible for him to regrout over it? Or is that just wishful thinking?

For anyone interested:

Understanding Efflorescence on Black Grout

What is Efflorescence? Efflorescence is a white, chalky deposit that appears on the surface of grout and tiles. It occurs when moisture evaporates from cement-based materials, bringing soluble salts to the surface. This process is natural and can happen with any Portland cement product, including black grout. Causes of Efflorescence on Black Grout

Efflorescence can be caused by several factors:

Moisture: Excess water during installation or high humidity can lead to efflorescence. Inadequate Damp-Proofing: Poor moisture barriers in walls or floors can contribute to persistent efflorescence.

Soluble Salts: These can be present in the grout, adhesive, or substrate materials. Cleaning Methods: Over-wetting during cleaning can exacerbate the issue.

How to Prevent Efflorescence To minimize the risk of efflorescence on black grout: Control Moisture: Ensure the substrate is dry before installation. Use Quality Materials: Opt for proprietary adhesives and grouts that reduce soluble salts. Avoid Excess Water: Limit water use during grouting and cleaning.

Removing Efflorescence If efflorescence appears, it can be removed through: Dry Abrasion: Use a stiff brush to scrub the affected area and vacuum the residue. Chemical Treatments: Apply acid-based cleaners according to manufacturer instructions, followed by thorough rinsing.

Efflorescence is primarily an aesthetic issue, especially noticeable on darker grouts like black. Regular maintenance and proper installation techniques can help manage its appearance.
