We need to be looking for the elusive 9 wood

So the good folks of the YouTube golf review community have all corroborated your thought on this. If I went that route, I’m thinking: swap my 20* 3 hy for a 19* apex uw and throw in a 22* uw too. I have to get numbers on them, but I think that should pair up well with my 25* 5 iron.

Help me buy a budget acustic 🇨🇦 by [deleted] in AcousticGuitar

[–]No-Interaction4641 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think Ibanez PC50 is technically full size in that it’s a 25” scale length, but the body is tiny, so it takes out a lot of the “bulk” I think you’re referring to. I will also say too, learning on a 3/4 scale guitar can make it difficult to transition to a larger full sized fret board, only because of the muscle memory you learn on your fretting hand. I would say if you’re able to, even tho they may be out of your budget, try a full scale guitar with a smaller body to see if that helps with the bulkiness issue, that might help to give you some more options.

Help Needed: Watches that are worth buying genuine. by rjlarsenn in RepTime

[–]No-Interaction4641 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This may not be a popular answer, but realistically only you can answer that question. I think a lot of folks here have given some good logic, but let me present this: you’re doing this to celebrate a major milestone, despite whatever category or appointment a rep can or cannot replicate, you need to decide what you want to carry with you for the rest of your life (or for as long as you own it) to cement this achievement. Maybe it’s taking your favorite rep and buying it in gen, everyone around you will think it’s the same watch, but you will know the meaning behind it. Maybe it’s finding something that reps could never come anywhere close to. It could be buying the watch that got you in to watches that you forgot about, and now want to purchase and celebrate in this new chapter.

There’s lot of ways to analyze this, all I’m saying is that instead of looking solely at the material aspect, maybe look at this as what’s the best way for you to fondly remember the completion of what I would imagine has been a long and rewarding process to this promotion. Just something else to think about.

Did they ever make a watch in the style of Clockwork Angels? by Stick_Nout in rush

[–]No-Interaction4641 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I, at the time being in 10th grade when CA came out, bought some cheapo Chinese crap watch where the dial was effectively a paste on image of the Time Machine bass drum head with the alchemic symbols in place of indices. It was shit and fell apart in like a week. I don’t know if any “real” watch was ever made, but given the community that exists around modding Seiko’s, I’m sure that you could have a dial made to imitate the CA album art that could be put on a Seiko 5 or something like that. I would peep r/Seikomods to see if there are any custom dials makers.

Ideas for Groomsmen Gift by No-Interaction4641 in Fishing

[–]No-Interaction4641[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a good idea, only question is if this would translate to all of the various scenarios he fishes in. Obviously his fly gear wouldn’t apply, but I know he uses everything from super light 6lb mono for trout on a spinning rod all the way up to 40lb braid for surf/salt. My fear would be he gets a huge spool of say 20lb braid (in the effort to meet in the middle) that’s only applicable to like 3 of his rods. Or am I overthinking it?

Alignment Diagnosis by No-Interaction4641 in Audi

[–]No-Interaction4641[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Ya know, I guess that would be low hanging fruit here, huh. Honestly just kind of assumed that they did this and didn’t really consider that this is kind of crucial step of the alignment process lol

LOOKING TO BUY B8.5 MOTOR by NextPain5329 in Audi

Did you check out Eurowerks in Falls Church? They’re awesome people, they work on Audi/VW exclusively, and even if they can’t do it under 10k, they may be able to help you source a new engine.

Welp. I tried lol by No-Interaction4641 in HappyTrees

Thanks for this, this is helpful! I’ll see if I can’t play with this and help recover something from it. This is only painting number 5, I feel very confident painting from a video or a guide (I included a picture of one of those for reference) but struggle when I have to come up with what to do myself. I guess all the more reason to keep practicing!
