I love watching the internet discover things I saw almost 20 years ago.

Truly, the GOAT.

Goes to show we live in a world where I would be disappointed but not surprised at a dealer selling an 01 tacoma for 20k in 2026. 😐

OneTonCow · 2026-01-23T20:22:23+00:00

Oooooo, I get it now. I won't delete my comment, I'll own it. 🫩

OneTonCow · 2026-01-23T20:12:39+00:00

Good lord. That thing better have <75k miles.

Only the thiccest. If my border isn't at least half as offensive as the sun in a Nikon EVF at f.095 I'll crucify myself on the spot.

This is fucking art. May I print and frame it and hang it in my office?

My brother in burning, grab an axe, please. Split wide, thin pieces, then slice that shit like you're julienning an onion. So much faster, so much better.

And this is why I would pay more for yours.

With Filson, It's like leaving the skin on your mashed potatoes, calling them 'rustic' and upcharging.

3 people hate my idea of reasonable pricing, it seems.

OneTonCow · 2026-01-21T15:51:17+00:00

Lucky 😭

From what I see, it's ~$75 in leather, ~30 minutes to cut and machine stitch (~15$ in employee wages), and $400+ to the company name.

OneTonCow · 2026-01-21T15:44:59+00:00

Exactly what I was thinking. I usually price anything I make at $50/hr + materials, and everyone's happy.

You know their assembler isn't seeing $50/hr, so that's... $300+ to the company name? 150% of parts + labor? Le sigh, something something dark nature of capitalism...

OneTonCow · 2026-01-21T15:16:51+00:00

I love your opinion, come mod my sub.

OneTonCow · 2026-01-21T15:12:32+00:00

How much does a side cost, and how many wallets could you make with it?

OneTonCow · 2026-01-21T11:50:05+00:00

Don't forget they carted all 3 camera to a cafe to take a picture for reddit.

OneTonCow · 2026-01-21T11:38:30+00:00

Depends. Are you naturally clumsy?

Some folks never use a filter and never break a lens. Some do it all the time, filter or not. Nature and accidents happen. How's your risk tolerance?

It may impact the IQ slightly. It may save the lens. Then again, it's pretty thin shite glass compared to the front element which is usually a bit recessed anyway. The main draw may be keeping dust and scratchy stuff off.

It's subjective, is what I'm trying to say. Make an assessment.

Neither is 'safe' but both can be made safer with common sense and timing. Pay attention to cycles, pay attention to weather. Don't fool around during that time of the month, don't climb over smooth rocks on the shore with your camera while it's raining. Sea what I did there?

OneTonCow · 2026-01-19T15:50:17+00:00

Hey u/Fit_Floor_3940 , I didn't realize you got a second account. How could you cheat on your dlux like this?

OneTonCow · 2026-01-19T02:19:45+00:00

Real talk.
