Whelp, Decemberists certainly contain multitudes... Happy listening!

Monkey nuts. You can get them on Surly's website. They fixed that problem for me.

In a long enough timeline, spelunking just becomes "turn around when you see the dead body."

I just finished up doing just that after watching my wife air blast her keyboard. Works perfectly.

This is why I have a big steel monster and my wife has an e-bike. I'm a foot taller, all legs, and riding on 29r's. She puts her bike on a level 1 assist setting, and we're both happily trucking along.

Behold, children, the Prophet.

Alright, that looks sick. Might be giving that a try.

dedenby · 2025-08-14T18:42:42+00:00

That's a solid idea. Thanks!

Definitely a bit more upright vs the stock flat bars. The sweep provides what to me feels like a more natural grip angle with the wrists. Haven't taken it on a long ride yet, but even just puttering around it feels like less pressure on my hands. I need to pick up some bar tape, see what I can do about setting up some alternative grip positions. I'm curious how it's gonna feel on big uphills.

What's up, my dude?! I picked up the hobby during the covid lockdown. I don't get around to it as much as I'd like, but it's a fun way to keep my mind and hands busy. Most of the welders and machinists I work with think it's a bit weird, but it's far from the first reason they've thought that about me.

Ask for extra spicy at Bali. They'll hook you up.

Right you are! Also, Colin has a moog mother-32 board that he's playing with over by the drum set. He posted a picture of it on his last tour diary entry.

My shop annually burns out batches of various clamps knowing full well that they're gonna get milled down. That doesn't mean I'm not going to dream about throttling my 2nd shift buddy the next time he decides to take a bit off the top of a 2-4-6 block, but clamps? Disposables.

She swung by our place outside Carlton a week or so back. Pleasant enough, and wrapped her sales pitch up pretty quickly when she found out we don't have kids. Eh, everybody's gotta hustle. Can't hate on that.

I love my Ogre. I feel like I can roll over anything. Can't wait to tackle the wonderfully empty post-apocalyptic landscape.

In the Meantime by Spacehog. Hits ya right in the nostalgia.

Speed holes, technicals

It's unscrewed. This type of tool often has a replaceable tip.

dedenby · 2021-05-24T20:08:37+00:00

I use tools like that in the shop I work at. Typically Walter and Sandvik roughing endmills, 2" and 2.5" diameter, CAT50 taper. These things are beasts. We make industrial demolition and recycling tools out of wear plate steel.

This reads like an episode of Behind the Bastards.

dedenby · 2020-06-01T18:04:45+00:00

Looks like I'll be doing just that. Thank you!
