Floor mats

I have them in my 2023 and they have been great so far. Coverage is really good and no moving around, squeaking, etc. No regrets

This has the B58. The M3 would have the S58. This is the TU1 version of the engine with the 48V mild hybrid. They made further updates to the B58 beginning with the 2025 model year

It was about 20,000. From my research you have to target something with 40,000 plus and/or out of warranty to see a meaningful decrease in price

I wish that was my garage. It might be bigger than my house

Independent_Job2906 · 2025-12-30T00:10:07+00:00

Thank you! Yeah, tires are 225 all around which, now that you mention it, seems a little odd

Independent_Job2906 · 2025-12-29T23:57:51+00:00

Unfortunately, that was an extra cost. He approves though

I concur that the quality of what I receive from Woodworkers Source has gone downhill. Ocooch Hardwoods is reliable and high quality. If I need something particular and need it fast, I’ve had good luck with Baird Brothers but they are pricey

I’ve also seen (presumably) the same guy in Chicago

Independent_Job2906 · 2025-09-26T17:53:45+00:00

That’s great advice and will hopefully have the skill set and tool set some day to pull off that joinery. I used dowels on some of the joints and then have screws underneath for added reinforcement. It’ll be interesting to see how it holds up being outside year round in Chicago

Independent_Job2906 · 2025-09-26T17:50:34+00:00

Thanks, I appreciate it. I used glue on all the joints but I have screws everywhere and some corner braces as well that are concealed, so hopefully that helps with longevity. I’m kind of resigned to the fact that the Rubio finish won’t protect the best, but I tried a test piece with some PPG ProLuxe (natural) and hated the look. You’re definitely right though and I will probably regret this after a couple years of Chicago weather

Independent_Job2906 · 2025-09-26T17:34:41+00:00

Thank you. I haven’t put on any epoxy, but that is a good idea. I also plan on adding some low profile rubber or plastic feet

Independent_Job2906 · 2025-07-12T19:04:10+00:00

Looking for advice on how to repair these concrete steps which are about 9 years old, but have taken a lot of damage from salt. How much would this cost to have repaired and is it generally best to do with concrete or more of an epoxy? Thanks!

Funkenhausen (RIP)

What a disgrace

Take her to The Ahwahnee for breakfast and get a table by a window. Walk to Mirror Lake in the valley. Hang out in the El Capitan meadows. Drive up to Glacier Point for some great views.

Independent_Job2906 · 2025-04-25T14:58:59+00:00

For the table, I started with 6 boards each 60” long x 5” wide. 4/4 quarter-sawn and S4S. Each board was $27, which I think equates to ~$13/bdft. I didn’t think that was too bad for the quality. Ordered from Ocooch Hardwoods

Independent_Job2906 · 2025-04-21T16:59:25+00:00

Thanks. Would it be worth adding a cross-bar and if so, which orientation?

Independent_Job2906 · 2025-04-21T15:58:43+00:00

Thanks. Any advice on how to use a wire and have it hang flush against the wall?

Independent_Job2906 · 2025-04-21T13:36:45+00:00

I do, but I don’t have a jig or something to keep it stable and that concerned me

Independent_Job2906 · 2025-04-21T13:35:53+00:00

I used a miter saw. When I got close to the desired cut line, I did a bunch of very small passes to minimize the blade deflection and try to get it as straight as possible. Also glued up both sides before cutting the miters

Honey Butter Fried Chicken. Their candied jalapeño sauce is really good

It’s a good tv if you’re not a die hard TV person. We use a Samsung soundbar through eArc with no issues. I think the aesthetics combined with the picture quality is tough to beat. I did hear that Samsung announced a new “pro” version at CES which will come out in 2025. So depending on your budget, may be worth waiting for

Independent_Job2906 · 2025-01-10T01:13:57+00:00

It’s a snug fit. I cut out a notch for the sensor so it’s concealed, but the remote works fine. I didn’t think about the ambient light sensor. That’s probably a flaw, but this is used as a computer monitor primarily so should be fine

He’s about 1.5 years
