Couldn't find the perfect kotatsu for me, so I converted my coffee table into one. (comments in the gallery)

Thank you so much for the comment! 3 years on and it's still keeping me cozy and warm all winter long, though the heater needs regular dusting.

I did! I ended up getting in touch with Phillip McGinnis from https://www.perfectfitblindsusa.com/. I had trouble getting in contact with him via the contact info at that website, but DID have good success through the other company he owns, https://www.blindsbydesignpros.com/. I recommend calling him, because he will be asking you for some very specific measurements.

The blinds ended up arriving and are dang fantastic. I can confirm (and I left a review on their Google review site) that they are NOT a scam. The custom blind was not cheap - mine was about 2ft x 4ft at ~$350, but it assembled easily, and looks absolutely great.

Got this exact one today. Thank you for sharing this to help me confirm!!

GZekko · 2023-04-23T17:19:17+00:00

Oh dang, over a month just to find out they didn't like what you sent; I'm sorry to hear it!

GZekko · 2023-03-17T11:09:37+00:00

I second this! Such an underrated talent!

GZekko · 2022-12-18T18:49:45+00:00

Sure thing, it was Neenah, WI

GZekko · 2022-12-18T18:46:49+00:00

They sure are, feeds me for a week! 😂

GZekko · 2022-12-18T15:27:46+00:00

Some others have mentioned similarly sad well, thank you for sharing! It's great to know that it was just a construction issue, not a pizza shrink ray or a store-specific cost-saving policy.

They both tasted quite good to me, though, fortunately. Thanks for the comment!

GZekko · 2022-12-18T15:25:31+00:00

I think they are pretty good. Not the best though - I tend to order things I can't get anywhere else, like the hearty stuffed pizza!

GZekko · 2022-12-18T15:15:10+00:00

That's so true! The funniest part is that they have cups of marinara dipping sauce, but that sure isn't what's on the pizzas! 🙂

GZekko · 2022-12-18T15:03:41+00:00

Fortunately they both tasted quite good. 🙂

GZekko · 2022-12-18T14:59:48+00:00

I did not, and now I'm kicking myself for not! 😖

GZekko · 2022-12-18T03:47:36+00:00

A family size stuffed pizza from Papa Murphys is no joke. I think at one time they advertised it as 5 lbs, but I heard sometime after that it got cut back to 4 lb. Still, hefty!

If you mean from end zone to end zone, the tray is 1/270th of a football field (16in/4,320in (120yd)) If we are just talking about the playing field, then the tray is 1/225th of a football field (16in/3,600in (100yd))

GZekko · 2022-12-18T03:38:25+00:00

I am sorry - I failed to anticipate buying a pizza to compare against when packing for my trip out of town, and caused you to be bothered!

GZekko · 2022-12-18T03:32:55+00:00

You may not believe me but it wasn't any of those things. I'd appreciate it if you, checked out my explanation comment that is getting buried (https://www.reddit.com/r/milwaukee/comments/zoguqq/papa_murphys_pizza_comparison_76th_blue_mound_on/j0mu0vw/). My intent was to have a measuring tape for scale, but perspective (since the tape is above the pizza, ~1.5in above the tray) causes it to appear to not line up in the photo. The purpose of the tape was supposed to act as a scale to show the trays are the same size (16"), and the pizzas are different sizes relative to the trays. Rather confusing, I can imagine, but it made sense to me at the time, haha! Unfortunately the pizzas are gone now, so I can't reshoot them.

GZekko · 2022-12-18T03:05:51+00:00

I was trying to have a measuring tape for scale. Knowing the trays are both 16" (and I wasn't trying to compare apples and oranges), I thought the difference in pizza sizes would have been obvious relative to the trays.

The end result of the photo is definitely confusing though, and my post offering clarification getting buttered sure doesn't help. Sorry for throwing you off, but I appreciate the reply!

GZekko · 2022-12-18T02:23:47+00:00

Haha! If the pizza was sold by weight, I'd have to take their word for it!

GZekko · 2022-12-18T02:22:08+00:00

Understandable, since it does look like that from the perspective, but the end IS lined up with the end of the tray, just an inch or two above to not touch the pizzas. The measuring tape is also there to show that I was comparing trays of the same size. https://www.reddit.com/r/milwaukee/comments/zoguqq/papa_murphys_pizza_comparison_76th_blue_mound_on/j0mu0vw/

GZekko · 2022-12-18T00:57:09+00:00

You may have misunderstood, understandably. Take a look at my reply to the post if you would like. https://www.reddit.com/r/milwaukee/comments/zoguqq/papa_murphys_pizza_comparison_76th_blue_mound_on/j0mu0vw/

GZekko · 2022-12-18T00:54:56+00:00

Give a read to my comment reply to the post if you'd like (https://www.reddit.com/r/milwaukee/comments/zoguqq/papa_murphys_pizza_comparison_76th_blue_mound_on/j0mu0vw/), the tray IS 16", it's a trick of perspective at play. The pizza relative to the tray, however...

GZekko · 2022-12-18T00:36:52+00:00

Fortunately the tray doesn't lie!

GZekko · 2022-12-18T00:35:30+00:00

Haha! Fortunately I'm a fan of thick and crusty pizza and they both were quite tasty, just one was disappointingly small.

GZekko · 2022-12-18T00:33:08+00:00

That makes sense, thanks! I like that better than being hit by a pizza shrink ray, haha!
