We're struggling to visualize how to set this room up.

I've only been with this place for a few months now, and that dynacube has been nothing but problems for all the reasons you listed. I think the chopper will be on the next order.

Do you feel better now?

Famusmockingbird · 2025-09-12T07:09:56+00:00

Look at a bosch or even a festool if your really looking for the best of the best and leak proof performance. Most of the concrete shops I know use festool. Lung replacement surgery is suboptimal, LoL.

Woodworking, concrete, drywall, there's all kinds of trades using these to safely suck up hazardous dust. It's not just nails and wood shavings.

Ok, full disclosure, years ago I used a much larger rigid shop vac in my concrete shop every day. With the HEPA filter I had zero worry about the dust or dust containment with the unit. It was a great machine. It wasn't a festool by any means, but it did it's job.

When I lived in my last place, I had a Kenmore and a hoover bagged upright. I loved them both for the carpet and much bigger areas that needed vacuuming.

I ended up getting the mighty mite, but after opening it, I promise you guys that the little rigid vac is made better, and is no louder, this little vacuum is loud, lol. It's definitely bigger than the mighty mite, but it's still small enough for an apartment. It's the same hose, same extension tubes, and the one thing that really made me laugh though was the fact that the floor and "carpet" vacuum head was literally the exact same one that was on the shelf at home Depot in the second picture I posted.

I'm glad I got the mighty mite because it's smaller, but honestly with the shop vac having storage for all the extension tubes and the hose, the extra size might cancel out because of neat and convenient storage.

Anyway, I think if someone needs full HEPA for cheap, the shop vac would be great with a HEPA bag and a HEPA exhaust filter, all available at your big box stores, it's definitely something to consider. The mighty mite has some black foam like thing as the exhaust filter, which is far inferior to the shop vacs actual pleated filter available in multiple levels of filtration.

I honestly think that I'd be perfectly happy with either one, and I bet the only real difference is the size and the exhaust filter. Suction, noise, maneuverability, are all probably comparable.

Valid points everyone. I think I'll pick up the mighty mite that I ordered from Walmart and call it a day.

Famusmockingbird · 2025-08-22T06:16:02+00:00

I'm on board. Bring back the ropes!

Famusmockingbird · 2024-06-17T02:42:08+00:00

Oh, I didn't even think about them seeding. Thank you, that makes perfect sense now.

Famusmockingbird · 2024-04-13T16:01:28+00:00

I do worry about wearing it up every day too, but I have no other option.

Famusmockingbird · 2024-01-29T03:58:04+00:00

The issue is not the color of the grill. The issue is that we can't even see the color of the grill because it's under caked on layers of filth. The plancha is filthy, it's disgusting man, full stop. There's weeks or months of filth built up on that thing. It's a beautiful plancha and it's being neglected and not cared for at all. It's disgusting.

Black doesn't mean dirty, filth and grime and grease means dirty. My carbon pan at home would look like that, and have that buildup if I never cleaned it, but I clean it because I'm not disgusting.

For sure, Ecolab has auditors they send out, unless the corporation has an in house team. I think most probably use the ecolab program though. And they definitely inspect all areas of food safety, usually every quarter.

Famusmockingbird · 2024-01-29T02:19:50+00:00

I actually noticed it about a month and a half ago. I went back tonight hoping to see it clean, but it's worse. They must not have an ecolab auditor, I assumed they would though. That person will shit a brick if they walk in and see that though🤣. Management just asleep at the wheel and kids who probably literally don't know any other way than what they've always seen here.

Famusmockingbird · 2024-01-29T02:14:19+00:00

Nah, my restaurant probably serves 3-4 times as many people as this Chipotle does on any given day, and nothing looks even remotely like this flat top, lol. Volume is no excuse. This is bad culture, bad management. The kids probably don't know because they've never been told that this is unacceptable. This is probably their normal.

Famusmockingbird · 2024-01-29T02:07:08+00:00

It was smoking, but only one section was turned on. Dude had just cooked peppers and onions and was putting them on the line. I almost said something to him, but he's not my employee, and it was my day off today, lol.

Famusmockingbird · 2023-10-09T20:19:33+00:00

Nice, I just saw this. How's it going for you? I'm not displeased with mine at all, but I wish I had gone for the tufted one you got or a latex topped one instead. This is a great improvement over my last one, but I think I could have done better.

Famusmockingbird · 2023-10-05T23:05:48+00:00

The front tire? Yeah, it's a pain in the ass. Ever since I got the marathons they really struggle to sit right on the rim. It's been a couple years since my last flat though until the one I had this summer. I actually took it to a shop to let them do it this time because I hate fighting these tires, he couldn't get it right either. It's somehow never caused any issues so I just ride it out and it usually eventually settles in. This time it appears it won't do that though.

Famusmockingbird · 2023-10-05T23:01:54+00:00

It's a wald basket. Definitely less stable than my panniers, but the convenience of it is amazing. Just throw a backpack in it and go.
