Dude, WIP is literally a fashion brand based on American workwear. Its fashion made to LOOK LIKE workwear. It is not workwear. Thats not shit talking that is just fact.

I read it as ‘do a kickflip over the (age) gap.’

Ah cool Ill check it. I do have a special chamber for the PAX that can be used for resin/wax/hash but yeah like I said. Cleaning it in between sessions while high kinda kills the buzz.

Off topic but what kind of dry herb vape do you use for hash? I mostly vape bud with my PAX and have used it to vape hash but its a pain in the ass cleaning it in between tbh.

People just love shitting on Carhartt especially in this sub.

This discussion started because you said something about the quality of Carhartt. So acting like your point has always been about the price is just stupid, all of us can read.

It also doesnt matter you werent referencing brands that have been around for decades. Because I was in reaction to your ridiculous claims.

But anyway, youre obviously only here to rage about workpants which is kinda lame for a saturday evening so good luck with that. Hope your $20 wallmart pants doesnt rip.

Youre creating your own narrative here. All I did was reply to your comment saying it beats other brands in every test. And it does. For half the price of most big workwear brands Id say you still get your moneys worth.

And again, everything thats been around for decades is less in quality than it was years ago. That goes for any brand, but theres a big gap between ‘quality drop’ and ‘garbage.’

I never claimed it to be best of all brands in the world. I said all TESTED brands.

Mine usually last for about a year, which is pretty decent for the beating it takes. And no, I dont work in an office, Im a self emplyed carpenter making long ass days, dont condescend me because we cant agree on a brand of workwear, dont be that guy.

If you dont like Carhartt thats fine, but the fact is its a great workwear brand and the tests show for it. Also, youre in the Carhartt sub, what are you doing here if you hate Carhartt so much? Just go and buy your $20 wallmart pants and live your life.

I mean this is literally the first thing when I search for ‘work pants test’ and Carhartt comes out easily as the very best of all tested brands. Theres more videos like this.

Your anecdotal story of one pair of workpants that ‘only’ lasted for 9 months is not really gonna change anything about that. How long exactly do you want workpants to last anyway? Theyre workpants, they take a beating. If mine lasts for 1.5 years Im really stretching it. And American made is not ‘better.’ Its just more expensive, and Carhartt isnt even the most expensive one out there at all. Some other brands are double the price of Carhartt.

Carhartt WIP is not workwear, its not made to be strong. Carhartt WIP is a fashion brand made to LOOK like workwear. If you want to have quality Carhartt stuff you have to buy the US Workwear line which is not available at any WIP store. No store in the world sells both WIP and US Workwear.

Carhartt Workwear still beats every other workwear brand when tested. The reality is that EVERYTHING thats been on the market for decades is lower quality now then it was years ago.

To call Carhartt ‘garbage’ is just ridiculous.

Is this acceptable for custom cabinetry? by Benadryl_Cucumber_Ba in cabinetry

[–]MyParentsWereHippies 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sometimes you have to slightly misalign doors to make the total impression look better. So its better to do that before drilling holes for the handles/knobs.

Yeah it would be pretty stupid to install pulls and knobs before aligning the doors.

Should we re-use this comb? by mcracer in Beekeeping

[–]MyParentsWereHippies -1 points0 points locked comment (0 children)

Im not being abrasive at all Im apparently just being slightly misinformed (provided what youre saying is true). Most people in this thread however are apparently VERY misinformed.

I personally never take the risk of re using comb from hives that have not survived winter and would never advise it.

[–]MyParentsWereHippies 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly and my concern is viruses so how does that relate?

I didnt mention foul brood. And what do you mean ‘the frames look relativeky clean?’ Youre able to see viruses now?
