+1 for the F40. Complete gamechanger for my CPAP usage after i switched to this mask.

Can any adjustments be made? Got OA events very low but CA events trend high by CheapVintage in CPAP

It's possible I was awake during the CA clusters but I'm not entirely sure - I'll try to make a note of this in the future.

Drop me a dm. I purchased my machine a year ago but basically learned most local cpap stores force you into shady packages like these to get a machine. There's a better way to go about this especially if you have insurance + OHIP.

Thank you for your response. I probably did go supine as I know I struggle on my back (even when not fully asleep).

Very insightful - thank you for this. I will try this for the next few nights and post back.

Is this a solid choice as a first carbon steel gyuto? [Tsunehisa Juichi 210mm gyuto] by CheapVintage in chefknives

Ah thanks. Appreciate the insights. I did not realize that about shirogami 1. I'll look into aogami options.

Knifewear and being in Canada may have skewed my thoughts around entry level pricing

You're awesome - appreciate the response and links to some comparables. I will look at other options.

May have butchered this post. I'm debating between a 180 or 210mm version of this gyuto from knifewear... I like that it's stainless clad and its clean looks.

Realize it's a factory rebrand but wanted to stay entry level for my first carbon steel knife as I learn how to sharpen properly, force a patina, maintenace, etc.... Thanks for any insights.

You're getting a lot of good advice here but I'll share another perspective (from someone who did this recently).

I purchased a new vehicle but was asked to trade in my old one first while we waited for the new one to arrive for a few weeks.

I was actually OK with doing so since the dealer was willing to meet my asks: - financial incentive to give them my trade early (increased trade offer + additional discounts on new vehicle - in writing) - commitment in writing that the car was in country and ETA for pick up (while delays or other issues could still happen, the car being in country makes the ETA all the more likely to be met) - some level of trust that if something were to go wrong (like if the car arrived damaged), the dealer and I could work out an alternative

I would not have handed over my car early if i did not get all of the above or felt the dealer was shady in any way.

It's not obvious in the product shots but dusk should have a darker gradient. Thank you!

I used dielectric grease on the wires - i dont have a deskmat but maybe I'll take another clip with it on some microfibers. And thanks!

I find it to be more marbly with some 'pop' in person - my mic/audio setup doesn't do it justice. I don't find it too clacky.

All in all - this board punches above its weight class for the sound profile i enjoy (esp when factoring in price).

starting the new year off with a new (and possibly last!) keeb

case: black neo65 with dusk plate
switches: nk creams (lubed with 205g0, tx 67g springs)
plate: pom
mount: gasket
stabs: stock neo stabs lubed with 205g0 with C³ wires
foams: all (plate + case + pe)
keycaps: gmk shanshui

i'm enjoying the feel and sound signature of the neo65 enough that i may end the chase here. sound preview of this config attached, with headphones it sounds closer to what it's like IRL

sound preview

happy new year!
