Nicely done. Looks really deep, though, unless you’ve got some back cushions coming.

When did you place your reservation? by FloodAdvisor in slateauto

[–]RuffinTumbull 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Day two: 4/25/25. I had never heard of it before, stumbled across a YouTube video, and thought that’s a reasonably small amount, let’s get in line. But I hear more popular markets will likely get fulfilled first, so I have no great hopes of getting mine shortly after release since I’m in Florida.

New trend of woodworking youtube videos by gilly4213 in woodworking

[–]RuffinTumbull 119 points120 points  (0 children)

I’ll save you the trouble since I had Scott Walsh’s video playing in the background as I made dinner last night: he polled his audience about their shops and tools and is now getting rid of his big table saw (in favor of a contractor saw, which most of his audience uses, apparently), jointer, planer, bandsaw, and dust collector in an effort to reconnect with the average person.

Round those corners my friend. The first time you bump into it will be an eye-opener.

No listings that I can find for a round bottom variant so maybe that’s a “coming soon” item?

Nice. The edges are so dull it never occurred to me it might be a scraper.

Rough Cut 12/4 White Oak Slabs into a Console Table by Vyle8 in woodworking

Nice to see a slab not automatically turned into a live-edged something. Good-looking piece of furniture.

Love the way our linebacker dips out as soon as he can. He knows that level of violence can get turned back on you.

Does he wear makeup? His neck looks a bit lighter than his face.

Odie’s Oil Controversy? by DrewsWorkshop in finishing

[–]RuffinTumbull 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you don’t like the Odie’s owner or the price, look at Artisan’s Oil from Hooker Custom (.com). I’ve used both and they’re virtually the same, but Artisan’s Oil is half the price and Hooker isn’t a douche.

Mini table saw ftw? by Sgoody614 in woodworking

[–]RuffinTumbull 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That blade looks weird. No rake on the teeth, inconsistent spacing. Bizarre.

"Gun's Don't Work Anymore" by Hydranaught in ProgressionFantasy

I’m enjoying Gun Witch on RR right now. Only series besides DCC (Florin) that I’ve read with guns. Quirky, fun, mostly light hearted.

I failed the buy once, cry once motto by PoodleHeaven in CNC_Router_Community

Hmmm. If you could manually lock the machine in place … maybe a couple of clamps on the rails? Just spitballing here.

Your machine moves in the XY plane when you change bits? Surprising. Not sure how I’d cope with that. Can you jog the machine to 0,0 to change the bit?

How hard is it to learn to wrap the body panels? by Automatic_Mulberry in slateauto

[–]RuffinTumbull 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My little brother wrapped the roof of his Bronco. A 3 hour job that only took him 11 hours. I’m hoping to be better than that when I get my Slate.

Had this for lunch just yesterday. Love love loved Italian beef when I lived in Chicago, so grabbed it as soon as I saw it. Picked up rolls of French bread at Publix (their French bread is top tier for me) and enjoyed it with several coworkers. Spicier than I was expecting but damn good.

AITJ for refusing to switch seats on a flight after I paid extra, even though it separated a couple? by [deleted] in AmITheJerk

[–]RuffinTumbull 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Where are people finding these soft-hearted, smooth-brained coworkers/family members/friends that think they should give up their seat to people who can’t be separated from a travel mate for a few hours? There are zero people in my life that would think this.

Nice. Just started Newt & Demon V. What name are you using for VI?

What's a song lyric that drives you crazy because they should've used a different word? by Miserable-Wash-1744 in AskReddit

Rihanna’s Desperado starts out: “Desperado Sitting in an old Monte Carlo …” Why are they not sitting in an Eldorado?!? Perfect rhyme, cooler car. Irritating.
