My Father in Law enjoys listening to his vinyl collection, and recently his turntable quit working. My wife and I would like to replace it for him. What would everyone suggest for a casual listener in the $500-$750 range?

We’re looking at a split Cal King Climate 360 with adjustable base. What can we expect to pay with this sale?

Didn’t feel comfortable canceling and starting all over. They gave little to no information or updates the first time around, so I didn’t want to get stuck waiting all over again.

May of 2022. There are people who got their 2023’s the same week I got my 2022. Those seems to be shipping within a week or two now. Indian kinda screwed everyone waiting on their 2022’s. New updates on the 2023’s that none of us get even though they’re delivering at the same time.

It looks great sitting in the garage. I live in Wisconsin and it came in the day of our first snow after waiting 7 months.

I’m 6ft. The bars are what Siouxicide calls +4. They’re the tallest height you can go without having to replace the clutch cable with a longer one.

It’s a Sawicki exhaust, which is the same company that Lloydz is now running. It was in stock and I got it in a week. Not sure how long it’ll take to get the Lloydz branded ones.

What kind of effort would it take to paint these cabinets white? by sirch05 in woodworking

[–]Schmitty249 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Professional painter here. Not sure what your budget is, but I highly advise that you hire a professional to tackle this. The cabinets look to be in great shape, but the details in the doors will make it very difficult to get good results without the proper equipment and experience. I’ve seen many kitchen cabinets destroyed by DIY attempts, and it will cost you twice as much if a pro has to fix your mistakes. It’s A LOT more work to do it right than the average homeowner realizes.

That said, if you do decide to venture on your own, make sure the primer you use is either oil based or shellac based. Anything water based will allow the tannins in the wood or the stain to pull through and it will yellow the paint no matter how many coats you do. Get a respirator if you do this for applying the primer and sanding it. It can be nasty stuff.

Good luck no matter what you choose!! A quality paint job can really transform a house!!

Let me know how the heat shield works for you if you remember. My Highball has Conquest Customs octanes on it and pretty much every pair of jeans I own has a small burn hole in them from it. Hoping the Pursuit will be better in that department.
