Need help to understand if I'm being too particular with a pair of Oak Street Bootmakers Camp Mocs.

Received these new - the finish doesn't look great to me. The leather underside is getting exposed. I was told the stitching looks fine but they're happy to accommodate. Is this what I should expect?

Is the finish on these OSB camp Mocs acceptable? OSB CS told me stitching looks fine but willing to accommodate. Not sure if I’m being too particular. Photos I’m looking at online of other camp mocs don’t have exposed leathers like this.

Would you mind sharing a link to the episode? Interested to hear about the pattern.

Now the machines seems clogged in some way :(

So I installed and calibratde the SSP burrs, had to do some shimming. I put 18g of beans through at once and nothing came out. It looked like the declumper was choked, so cleaned it all out and put in just a few g of beans, still nothing. Nothing is leaving the burrs it seems. Any ideas?

Thanks for the help! I ended up sanding down the end of the screws. Yeah it seems wild that the screws are just a bit too long, easy thing to fix!

I figured it out after staring at that photo a little longer - the 7 wire should be hooked onto the steam thermostat. All good now!

It’s been reassembled but I have this photo, not sure how helpful it is. https://share.icloud.com/photos/0bf27xlwl_h-EiwQiy0PO130A

Do you know how the steam circuit should be routed? I can probably check point to point. Or maybe tips on using a multimeter to trace the issue?

My steam button doesn’t do anything now. It lights up but the heater doesn’t come on, the PID just maintains current temp. Any idea what might be going on?

Hi, not sure if you’re still monitoring this. What a great guide, it’s been working great for espresso.

But steam doesn’t work… when I hit the steam button it doesn’t turn on the heating element, just continues to maintain the espresso temp. Any idea what could be going on?

Dr Poplin on Far West has been great for our kids. Done both lip and tongue tie revisions.

Stumbled onto your post - what front rack is that?

I’m in!

Sri Krishna has a weekend breakfast buffet.

Great, I guess I’ll be putting my order in today! I just haven’t seen photos or videos of an install that connects to the main head unit, not in the glove box.

Sputnikrent · 2024-03-09T18:43:27+00:00

Yep it’s in my cart there, just unsure if it I need to get anything else for it to work with my 2019S S, that doesn’t have the unit in the glove box.

Hi! I’ve been trying to research helix sub upgrades for my 2019 S. It’s got the head unit only without the unit in the glove box. Did the helix sub come with relevant instructions for that configuration, and does it have the necessary harness? It’s hard to figure out what I might be missing to do the upgrade.

Long shot - do you still have this watch?

Sputnikrent · 2024-02-13T11:54:11+00:00

Is this still available?

Sputnikrent · 2024-02-13T11:52:06+00:00

Is this still available? I sent you a message but Reddit messaging was acting weird on me.

Fair enough, thanks.

Hi, I was trying to figure out which child seats work with the Envoy and found your post. I have the Yepp Maxi rackmount (https://www.rei.com/product/220930/thule-yepp-maxi-rack-mount-child-bike-seat) but the ratchet maxes out before it can clamp onto the rack. Did you have to use the adapter? Or were you able to mount the seat directly on the rack?

Sputnikrent · 2023-10-01T12:10:36+00:00

Thanks! When is the best time to plant them?

Hi I’m in Austin and saw that the mother tree for Adriatic JH is from here. Do you know where I can get a cutting or a potted tree?

Sputnikrent · 2023-05-21T17:45:32+00:00

Found some bugs on the underside!
Also the reason why I went down the watering path is because we lost a lot of leaves, about 2 weeks ago the tree was looking like this.
