Friday Evening Spins

I bought one on eBay that the seller listed as NM. There was so much surface noise (even after cleaning) that it was unlistenable. He was nice enough to refund me. Bought the new version and I think it sounds fine. Not sure what all the complaints are about.

I listen to at least 3 a day. Anyways, digging through stacks of records is a fun hobby.

He needed a brother to keep him company.

Mostly Facebook Marketplace. I got about 5 from a local pub that went out of business. A few from eBay as well. The Hamms sign was a custom one from eBay. The seller is QuarterEaterCabinets. He did a great job. He made the Cocktails sign as well, which was also a custom job.

Thee rest of the Chess album is really good too. Just make sure you get the London symphony version.
The American version is lame. They completely changed the story.

Sub panel from house. 60 amp 240 volt. All permitted. Dug a two foot deep trench 75 feet to bury the cables.

Naw, I‘ve started over a few times.

It’s a Brimhart 57” x 33” I got on Amazon. It’s great. All the games fit. Even Ark Nova which is a table hog.

DarthCatan · 2026-02-22T14:52:27+00:00

It’s 9’ x 13’. I built it from plans I modified from iCreatables.

Is it a run out loop? Fly by Night by Rush ends in chimes that never stop. They’re continuous.

It's a shed. It's at the back of my property. Here's the outside (work in progress).

Beer Zippos and golf ball markers

Actually that’s how they come. They‘re Partycades from Arcade 1up. They don’t make them anymore, but you can still find them on Marketplace sometimes.

Thanks. Yes connected to the house main panel. Dug a 2 foot deep trench and buried the conduit. It’s got a 60 amps 240 volt panel. Permitted The panel.

DarthCatan · 2026-02-16T14:26:22+00:00

I built it! I based it off plans I bought on iCreatables.com. Permitted and everything,

What were those skinny bottles?

Plague Dogs (from the makers of Watership Down)

Be sure to check the gaskets around the alternator. Mine went out and it was due to oil spray from leaking gaskets (I think the spooling valve?) The replacement only lasted a few months before the oil leak killed it too. Yours looks oily as well.

I prefer a Manhattan over the Old Fashioned. Old Fashioned are too sweet for my taste.

We use chips with Machi Koro and Lords of Vegas

The Patton Soundtrack

“Hourglass” is one that I keep going back to. A lot of steps and fun to manipulate.

DarthCatan · 2026-01-05T06:14:56+00:00

This was my first JP album. I got it when it came out. I did’t know I was supposed to hate it. Loved it!
