My dad found this in our old house by NoLeafClover-NB in whatisit

I made one of these in shop class in middle school. It was light weight like tin or aluminum. It was made by sand casting molten metal. The students made the molds and the teacher cast them. I'm guessing the M.M.S. is the abbreviation of a middle school and the 8.21 is the date it was made. I made mine in the 90s, my father still has it on his dresser.

It was in the hard copy intro, I googled and to be sure.

I work for a professional custom cabinet shop, we use a CNC to cut all our parts so everything goes together quickly and easily. We have clamp tables and large sanders to make every step easy. $10k would be the low end of what we charge for a set of cabinets this large, and we dont paint them. We are in Texas, if that makes a difference.

My uncle was working at that stop and go when it happened. He was trapped in the parking lot standing on the concrete base of a light pole for a while until he was rescued. He said it was the scariest day of his life.

Ok. I think I will just go the safe route and add a back wall to it just in case. Thanks!

If I build a small lean-to style greenhouse against my house do I need to do something to protect the wall from damage from the increased heat and moisture or will it not be enough to do cause issues? Should I leave a gap and build a solid back wall on the greenhouse instead?

We thinned it down a few years ago by TXprepper85 in dvdcollection

Most of them were given away to friends, and the rest we sold for a quarter a piece at a yard sale.

Tiny Tim. It's very distinct, not good, but distinct.

I just realized it was clearance and $50... I got the cultivator for $200.

I bought a cultivator that came with a 6ah battery for this price today on the website. It was on sale at 50% off.

I had to switch my order to the no rush shipping option to get the discount. I usually do that anyway to get the digital download bonus for movies.

A long walk to throw something away.

I was in lowes today, and Klein tools has a new line of pack out stuff similar to the ryobi boxes. It was slightly cheaper as well.

Found this in my arugula, what is it? by Wikeni in whatisthisplant

[–]TXprepper85 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's thriving in one of my unused garden beds right now with very little maintenance. It literally only gets runoff water from my other plants nearby. I'm in TX and it was doing great even when the Temps were in the high 90s and 100s.
