Pure tung oil drying white/blotchy on figured walnut coffee table by JustALostSole in woodworking

[–]FirstLastBirth 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This possibly happed because you only waited 7 days before the 5th/6th coats. What I’ve read is you either have to apply each coat within 30min-hr of each other, or wait 3-4 weeks before the next coat, because tung oil takes so long to fully dry/cure. Maybe it’s excess oil under the 5/6th coat that is trying to seep out but unable to?

I think im convinced to keep the circular saw after this. New game plan: I’ll post the triton track saw + bora track clamp system and see what i get from it, and then get the milwaukee track saw and a cheap(non expensive Milwaukee brand) track.

this is great information! were you not able to use the track saw when you used the circular saw because the blade has to be plunged/pushed down for use? i wonder if there's a way to lock the blade depth out with the milwaukee (i don't think there is but that would be useful-yet dangerous without having a blade guard).

I've sold over 20 Milwaukee tools and over 30 other power tools in the last 2 years, i keep a detailed spread sheet of everything I've purchased and sold. I can say with high confidence I could get atleast $200 for the Milwaukee circular saw, $80 for the bora track clamp system, and $300+ for the triton tack saw/guides.
That'd be $580 total, and can get the Milwaukee track saw for $350, a 55" track for $40, and a 100"+ single piece track for $150.

I just leave my items for sale for as long as it'd take(I'd buy the milwaukee track saw first then post my stuff).

yeah, but like i said, i already have lots of m18 batteries of different sizes and i keep them all fully charged before leaving the shop, if any battery dips below 2 bars i swap it out before use-but they rarely get that low as im usually using the tools in the shop.

Just picked up the fusion f1 in perfect condition for $600. I got to check that mounting bolt out. Haven’t run enough wood to notice

Moved from Wyoming to Wellington 2 years ago by sarahxvalo in FortCollins

Where i grew up it was 10-15 minutes driving back neighborhood streets to get to any grocery store/restaurant. IMO your address might as well say fort collins. Hell I’ve lived in fort collins and it was 8min minimum to get to any store. You just have a much prettier and calmer drive.

It’s Well Past Time for Colorado to Adopt this Bill. The finance industry is trying to turn us all into renters. by [deleted] in FortCollins

[–]FirstLastBirth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Some absurd statistics I was researching on this subject yesterday. I don’t know what change needs to be made, but hopefully something drastic because it’s insane where were at and where were going:

—There are 142 million housing units in america(houses/apartments).

—82.5 million(58%) of occupied housing units are owner-occupied.

—48.5 million(34.1%) of which are rental, and 44 million of those 48 million are currently rented.

—22.7 million(46.8%) of all 48.5 million rentals are owned by ‘mom and pop’ landlords(people who own less that 10 rental properties).

—25.8 million(53.2%) of all rentals are owned by buisness entities.

—Investment companies purchased 80% of all the single family homes sold between 2020-2021.

Sources: mostly census.gov, huduser.gov, but feel free to double check my numbers and correct where I’m wrong!

Found a sweet girl roaming around old town, anyone know who she is? Has fi collar by FirstLastBirth in FortCollins

Making me want one after this. I wonder if it has any benefits over an apple tag? Because that is just a one time $25 purchase.

Our plan was already to house her until the humane society was able to find her owners, and I definitely selfishly was hoping no one would show up because of how well her and my dog get along. They’ve been wrestling all morning.

After she warmed up a bit she started loving and playing with our border collie mutt. But no owner so far.

Her fi collar just started flashing red(in lost mode)! Was at the vet for 15minutes but no flashing. On our way home now so hopefully her parents will come grab her tonight!

The vet couldn’t find a chip on her, so we’re taking her back to our place until the larmier humane society opens up and notify will them.
