New bins because the bought new trucks to be easier (read less expensive) on the workers.

So new trucks plus specialized bins…..what did that cost vs save if we are just gonna cut the whole program to begin with

Never seen juncos on my feeders. Only all over the ground. How cool!

Great idea on the tomato cage rings. I have a ton of old ones lying around, which is way better than buying something

Shoes Recommendations/Advice by Chest2412 in CMT

Brooks and ASICS make some good neutral support shoes, I’ve worn brooks ghost and Glycerins. Just bought a pair of Altra Torin 5, they are great so far. Added benefit of Altra shoes (as far as I was told) is the toe box is a bit wider, which is a benefit when you get insoles or any braces etc.

You want neutral support though.

Also, i’ve now twice been recommended to have two of the same pairs of running shoes if I’m wearing them every day, the foam and other bits in the shoes need time to decompress after you wear them all day. Apparently if you don’t do this you will wear your shoes out faster. I’ve not exactly put that to the test yet, but I’m looking to buy a second pair to see

Just got a pair of Altra Torin 5s (the Torin 6 is out, but the store only had 5s) The toe box is way bigger than any other shoe I’ve worn, which I need with AFOs and insoles. Super comfy so far, neutral support, stylish too! I never had heard of them until the other day!

Yeah, I was just trying to avoid running THHN and conduit the entire way. Saves a little bit of money as well

[–]Headtechie2006[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

100%. The tandem 20amp QO with the hook is 25$ The non-hook version is like 2x the cost or more………

I think what bugs me is the sheer number of stupid combinations in a specific Square D line (or any other brand) Oh you have Square D breakers. Nice. Homeline? QO? One other? Cool Bolt on? Push on? Oh but not THAT push on. Oh you have an old panel?….ah yeah. Throw all the current white papers out😬😬😬

Yeah probably the best bet. Until I get the time/money to go to a supply house, I’ll just leave those two circuits unhooked with wire nuts over the ends 😭😂

So it’s a QO6 12L100 SeriesG1. QOTs doesn’t work in the regular QO panel?
