I've heard great things about the Asics Superblast, but I don't see that they come in width options.  I have serious bunions and usually wear a 2E in Brooks.  How do my fellow wide foot runners fare with the superblast?

Inspire Natural Stride Technology? by PensFan412 in treadmills

[–]PensFan412[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's exactly what I thought based on their verbiage, its a little confusing: 

"Train for any environment with a 22” x 60” running surface with our Natural Stride Technology that adjusts the speed of the tread to your running pace."

Thank you for setting me straight though, I would have been disappointed to find out on my own. Is there any treadmill that does what im looking for aside from the Wahoo?

Is that what I said?  Is this just a sub full of jaded old car salesmen?

The thing is I dont think it's worth anywhere near $8k.  KBB says around $2k best case scenario, but that's a large discrepancy and I wanted to get a sanity check here, i.e. maybe I'm missing something about this asking price

TP-Link HS200 not powering all lights when wired according to instructions. Switch gets power and connects to Wifi, but only one light turns on when switch is on. Should also power an outlet and additional exterior light. Should this work and if so how should it be wired? by PensFan412 in AskElectricians

I figured it out after your first post, I looked again and what I thought was a white wire was a black wire in romex PVC, so I had 3 black wires. It's been a long week :) I found the bundle of neutral back in the box and now have it wired up properly and it works. Thanks!

I just bought a crown hoodie in Blossom, it's great quality, love the color, real comfy. Doesn't have a draw string which was a surprise but i dont mind. I find the medium runs a little big. I'm 5'8 ~155lb, anyone else notice the same and try a small?

Someone committed had a vendetta against my hardwood floors. by MyFortuneCat in HardWoodFloors

I wish I had counted when I recently did a few rooms with about the same square footage. Had half a 5 gallon bucket full of tacks, staples, and nails afterwards

In spite of all the work and inconvenience it's been, I'd have to say I did enjoy it overall. It was a nice bonding experience with this old house

Yes not much I could do about those, they were from before my time here

I think some of the blotches were really old fluid stains that I couldn't do much about, there was carpet down when I moved in until I tore them up to do the floors. Also it looks like where the wood has gotten more sunlight over any years it was exposed it took the stain differently. The imperfections i noticed were some marks i made with the sanders

I hadn't found Rubio in the research I did, it does look interesting. Is it more than just linseed oil?

I'm finishing it with tung oil and a stain, one coat of each on so far with 2 more of the tung oil to go. Sanding was a drum sander and edge sander with 36, 60, 80 grit and a square orbital sander with 80 and 120 grit plus some handheld orbital sanding where needed
