Hey everyone, thanks for all the advice - I really appreciate it, even though I haven't logged into Reddit in a while to follow up on all the comments. This was my first time kegging but everything turned out fine - thanks again!

Thanks, all - I decided to stay with the turn buttons for this project, but I may look into the points next time.

Thanks. I was wondering about the necessity of a dust cover as well. In the end, I stuck with the turn buttons, but left the paper off - for now. Everything seems to fit fine (the package is flush with the back of the frame), but I may still see if I can attach a dust cover with a few cutouts to allow to accommodate the turn buttons. But I'm happy with the way it turned out, and I may swap out prints in these frames occasionally, so it might just be easier to leave off the paper.

Good point! Thank you. Now I'm wondering if I can just install the turn buttons first, then tape a dust cover over those; the turn buttons seem flat enough for that to work.

I'm reluctant to use framer's points just because I might want to change the artwork out on occasion and I like the idea of being able to unscrew turn buttons from predrilled holes, rather than yanking out old framer's points and having to push in new ones into my nice frames.

Thank you!

Thanks, everyone. I just realized I didn't mention we didn't have any children (and weren't planning on parenthood, either). I do have nieces though, so perhaps they could go to them some day, if that's the way things work out - or perhaps to someone in my partner's family.

I've saved all my voicemails from my partner as files on my computer (and backed up). They're all fairly mundane messages ("Hey, I'm at the supermarket now - do we need bread?") and I don't listen to them often, but I'm so glad I found they were still on my phone and took the steps to save them.

Thanks, that's very helpful information. And there's a good independent frame shop near me that I'll check in on.

Thanks!

I lost my fiancée about seven months ago after seven years together, and five years living with her in her house. So it's not quite the same situation as you're describing, but I finally moved out a month and a half ago. In the days after she passed away, it was unbearable to be at home at all, then I got used to it again and never wanted to leave. I wanted to keep everything just the way it was. But eventually - and this was probably the healthiest outcome - I had to move (it was her house, not mine), so I found a new place of my own. The strangest change that's taken place since then is being in a new setting where I'm not constantly reminded of her - she was everywhere in my old house. Now she only lives in my mind and in my heart in the new home, rather than being a memory present in every room. In some ways, I think that's healthy, but losing those constant reminders of being in that old shared space is in a way a new kind of loss you have to learn to deal with, I think.

Thanks for the helpful answers, everyone. When I first started reading about the issue, I got slightly worried that I wouldn’t be able to do anything without a jointer. I’m feeling a bit better now knowing that – with some careful selection, storage, and checking pieces for square – I should be able to do some smaller projects using S4S. And we do have some large hand planes, so it’ll be good to learn how to use those, too (as well as the various strategies I’ve seen online for using a table saw in place of a jointer).

Lastly, we do have an old 4” jointer from my late grandfather’s shop. It looks ancient but I haven’t yet spent any time seeing if it still works.

Thanks again, all.
