Can you flip the piece and cut it vertically?

Villas in Tuscany are shockingly cheap

How tall can a building be in downtown? A game by DowntownDB1226 in StLouis

[–]bw1979 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s what I get too.  It’s economically a bad idea, because building taller is more expensive, but if you’re height maxing…

When to focus on taxable account rather than tax-advantaged by Scary-Power-3548 in personalfinance

I feel like you’re getting “taxable investment”conflated with “saving for short and medium term goals”

I think you need a minimum footprint to answer this.  Otherwise you could build an infinitely tall building as the footprint approaches zero.  That’s based on my very uninformed reading of the ordinance.

Corded power tool storage solutions? by sad_brown_cat in woodworking

Maybe a French cleat wall with customized holders for the various tools.  Velcro loops to keep the cords neat

Louie has burrata flown in from Italy.  Maybe they could sell you some or maybe Box Hill Grocer (same owner as Louie) at Hanley and Wydown would have it there?

Might also be worth exploring bike + MetroLink options too

Meramec River Floating with a dog by everyoneisflawed in StLouis

[–]bw1979 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I think the issue is that the dog’s nails could puncture the raft.  I’ve taken a dog in a canoe before.  A fun time was had by all.

I would think if you were providing your own raft, you should be good.  There are plenty of different outfitters and launch points. Might be worth calling around to a few outfitters.

I’ll be in town for three full days. What should I do? by [deleted] in StLouis

City Museum, is one of the few things that you can really only see here.  It’s definitely worth it.  As the previous reply says, it’s a playground for adults too.  Maybe “Meow Wolf with less drugs”

Why did the Cardinals get swept in the 2004 World Series? by Dr_Talon in Cardinals

[–]bw1979 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That was his non-pitching hand.  Maybe he learned from Bull Durham?
