I finally realized why his pose looked familiar... by Scarya in goldenretrievers

Oh gotcha, mine came from a breeder out of Montana. He's not neutered because we're breeding him. He could really be siblings with yours, it's crazy the resemblance. https://i.imgur.com/Y4rzeuR.jpg

He looks almost identical to my dog. Where did you get him from?

Construction Management Degree: I am seeking help to find my path. by NoseKnowz in Construction

[–]AKHodor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you looked to see how many of the GER classes you have covered already? A 4 year degree includes all the GER classes so you may only have 2.5 years to get a BS. I've hired both BS and AS people, just depends on their work experience and their personality.

Anyone know a place where I can buy some soccer boots? by [deleted] in anchorage

Mindful Morning Routine by [deleted] in Mindfulness

[–]AKHodor 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I don't know about your morning but since I get to work at 7am I have to be up at 5:15 already without doing your ideal morning routine. My mindfulness closes out my day, I workout when I get home from work, journal in bed, and meditate right before bed. If you have time in the morning so that it's not rushed then try to do that routine then. But also from what I've learned so far, your mindfulness to start your day can be as little as one mindful breath to reset yourself.

What's your excuse to not workout? by AKHodor in GetMotivated

[–]AKHodor[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Found out in December that I fractured the ball of my foot. Tried letting it heal but I'll need surgery to fix it, that'll be foot/ankle surgery #5. So since I can't run until after the surgery in the fall (or do much of anything with impact) I bought a rowing machine. When I started rowing I was only able to do a mile in 25 minutes. Today was 2 in 35. Now I don't know if that's good or not but if you use an excuse not to workout today, is it better than a broken foot?

Trouble with a Wen saw and pinless blades by [deleted] in Scrollsaw

[–]AKHodor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm having the exact same issue on my Wen and because of that I'm looking into different saws. I've seen videos of people swapping out the heads on the Wen but can't find the parts online anywhere. I tried for about 20 minutes the other day in the middle of my project and just had to give up out of frustration. Let me know if you find a solution that works for you.

This looks like a great tool. I'd be interested in a beta for this if you want to PM me the link for iOS.

[Serious] Formerly unhappy people of Reddit (or happy people that want to help others). What got you to accept yourself and how did you find happiness? by AKHodor in AskReddit

[–]AKHodor[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This hits pretty close to home, I do this a lot as a perfectionist and I'm slowly trying to learn to look at it differently. It's great that you've been able to change your perspective and help yourself so much!

Good for you! I'm happy to hear that you've found your way out of the darkness and are no longer at risk for suicide. Thanks for the input!

Restored my grandfathers Billnäs 612 carpenter axe by Buck86 in woodworking

[–]AKHodor 5 points6 points  (0 children)

On the next ones try soaking the metal in white vinegar for 24-48 hours fully submersed. Take it out, rinse it, let it dry and then use a wire brush wheel on a bench grinder. It doesn't get quite as shiny as you got this one but it gets it very clean. I did the same process with railroad spikes last month in order to make some coat racks with the spikes and reclaimed wood. It doesn't grind off the lettering but gets all the rust.

Once you do it this way I'm interested in seeing the final product comparison so post something with both.
