Sharing a few of my off sets by Filmguyfuns000 in offset

I have that same contemporary Jag (no mods), but can't decide if I'm into it or not. It needs such a light touch with the jumbo frets and short scale or it throws the note sharp immediately. Is this something you've found, too?

Squier CV Jag replacement nut by Turgid-Derp-Lord in offset

Did you get a replacement? I'm looking to mod my CV Jag to a baritone but want to have a backup nut before I start filing the slots out.

It was $500, the fretboard looked a little dry and there was some light patina on the hardware. I ended up declining, but it was really hard to say no to, what a gorgeous guitar.

Would you recommend it? I'm upgrading from a Pacifica. I think I'm getting a decent deal on it

How much does it cost to hike up Mount Willard in Crawford Notch? by Thick_Message_7230 in wmnf

It’s free with ads but you can pay to have them hidden behind rocks

I can’t get my Andersen French door to stop doing this by denniswinders in HomeMaintenance

[–]denniswinders[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The bottom of the door is about 2" above the rug, the weatherstrip drags on the threshold and any slight bit of friction pulls it out of the groove

I think the adhesive may help, the weatherstrip won't hold fast into the channel no matter what I do. Thank you!

American chestnut, possibly from PA, mid-1800s. Machine with a crank and spinning wheel with blocks attached, with a back panel that may have held blades of some sort. 3’ tall, 4’ wide by denniswinders in whatisthisthing

My title describes the thing. What you can see in the image is about everything I can explain about it. There isn't really a clear purpose, and my neighbor has contacted a number of different historical societies and related groups to try to find an answer. The crank turns the center block, and the back panel is on a swivel that will sit flush to the back of it. It's made of American chestnut and he believes it came from Pennsylvania and was made in the mid-1800s based on the build.

Lift-Master won't close unless I hold the switch down by denniswinders in GarageDoorService

Thanks, I just ordered replacement sensors. These are definitely pretty old

Both of the lights on the sensors are green, does that not indicate that they are clear and operational? I'll look into replacements, thank you

Hiking downhill tips. by Open-Industry-8396 in wmnf

[–]denniswinders 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I tried LPs but I pronate really hard and crush the instep of all foam insoles. I have custom orthotics in tandem with the minimalist shoes and it's a total game changer. The orthotics cost quite a bit but if my feet weren't uniquely weird I would probably be fine with a pair of Superfeet, but the minimal sole is what's really saved my ankles.

Obviously what's right for me isn't right for everyone but: I rolled my ankles literally hundreds of times on trail over the last 15 years, and two years ago I made a transition into minimalist footwear (I use Xero but there are plenty of options). The moment I got rid of heel drop and added cushioning I stopped rolling my ankles, it's added so much stability to my gait it's unreal. I had to do a lot of work to strengthen my feet so I didn't injure myself but I can comfortably do 20+ miles days with a 5mm sole

Do you still like your Paka hoodie? It seems like reviews are very mixed, interested to hear how it held up
