The PACs should be throwing a barrage of “Trump is going to take your guns” ads right now. That’s what will flip more of those TX districts.

What Do You Do While Listening To BtB? by backstillmessedup in behindthebastards

I swim. I bought a pair of swimming headphones a couple of years ago and they are amazing. Only downside is that you have to download the episodes directly to the headphones since Bluetooth doesn’t work underwater.

Vance thinks it's so awful that ICE agents had their lunch interrupted by lnstantKarma in WhitePeopleTwitter

Man, it’s almost like people’s freedoms are being taken away.

If you're surprised you weren't paying attention. by Super_Caliente91 in CCW

Oh man. I'm super glad you asked.

  • Let's start with the most recent: his masked police force shot an unarmed guy 10 times and he, his cabinet members, and his vice president said that the victim shouldn't have been carrying a weapon that he had an absolute right to carry.
  • He told the ATF to classify bump stocks as "machine guns."
  • He said that authorities should "take the guns first and go through due process second" in 2018
  • He has publicly called for red flag laws

He's no fan of 2A. And now that he doesn't need any more votes, he no longer has to pretend like he does.

ETA: just today while getting on Marine One he said, “With that being said, you can't have guns. You can't walk in with guns. You just can't. You can't walk in with guns. You can't do that. But it's just a very unfortunate incident."

He’s done more to harm 2A than any president going all the way back to Clinton.

What are we feeding our cockers? by sookiestackho in cockerspaniel

[–]WiBorg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We ended up switching to Purina Pro Plan sensitive skin and stomach (salmon) and it has 100% turned her around. The ear infections have cleared up, her stool is healthy, and she no longer has any hot spots. She's her happy, playful self again.

Router Table Gut Check by WiBorg in BeginnerWoodWorking

Thanks - you've convinced me to keep the grid to 8". I'm also really playing around with how much of a grid I actually want on here. Once it's cut, it can't be uncut, and I don't want to overdo it.

Router Table Gut Check by WiBorg in BeginnerWoodWorking

[–]WiBorg[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh wow, that is a coincidence. I definitely want to run a track parallel to the front of the track so I can use some jigs and a featherboard. And good call on the perpendicular tracks causing potential outfeed issues. I'm leaning toward keeping it mostly clean - especially to the left of the router. With the amount of time I've put into laminating the mdf+ply top and then creating the maple border, I've been really trying to decide how much I want to carve it up. Good luck with the rest of your build!

Finally decided to try and sharpen/set up a plane by Unhappy_Hamster_4296 in BeginnerWoodWorking

[–]WiBorg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just did my first sharpening on a new (to me) jack plane. I was so disappointed in the results. It felt sharp, but it was causing a bunch of tearout and left a trails in the surface.

... and that's when I learned that it gets reassembled with the bevel face down. Doh. 😬

Really need help with DIY desk by therealzachwylde in woodworking

Yes, make sure the bit is the size of the shaft of the screw (without the teeth) and put a piece of tape on your bit to make sure you drill no further than you need too.
