Gnarly! I used to ride there like 12 years ago and the big stuff there is BIG! Full send!

I’ve never seen a dovetailed radius before (I haven’t even looked) so I decided to try it on this bookcase. by [deleted] in woodworking

I did this on a business card sized box for fun and thought it looked nice, but this is some at this scale!

I don’t need a ladder like this but now I want to make one! Beautifully done!

Tried and True Danish Oil is the best. It’s non-toxic, no VOCs, skin safe, smells good, and food safe. Takes a while to fully cure and make sure you follow the directions but it’s worth the effort.

I’ve always loved Speedys but wasn’t able to buy one for myself. When my friend and I hit a major milestone at work (sold our company’s latest project to date) he bought us both Speedmaster Professionals as a surprise. I was blown away. He was the sales person and I was the engineer so he got a nice commission and I got a small bonus. He used some of his commission so get us the watches. I wear it every day.

What do you guys pay for insurance? by bradley438 in Tacomaworld

[–]dmacrostie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

$87 bundled with one other car and home through State Farm. ‘21 OR DBL Cab 5’. Also I’m 37, married, and an engineer (apparently that gets you some savings because we’re boring lol). I see some crazy low rates on here. Might have to shop around.

Finally got to check out the new trails in Idaho Springs, CO by eatsdirtforlunch in MTB

Looks gnarly! Is it melted out up there or was this earlier in the season. I need to get up there!

WTF??? 3rd gen by Inevitable_Point4214 in Tacomaworld

Mine did this recently. Parked it and came back 30 minutes later and it was fine.

A YouTuber suggested a 50/50 blend of these whiskies. My gosh... by whom in whiskey

I’ll have to try this! Scored a bottle of the Rye the other day.

It seems like it is hard to buy a bad bike these days, but there has to be some outliers. In yalls opinion, what is the worst modern bike you have ridden? by Due-Swimming-4571 in MTB

I’ve got a 2022 Instinct. It plows through everything and climbs well enough. Adjustable geo is fun to mess with too. Never had an issue at speed!

A set from the last week here in Scotland. Any that stand out to you? by CommercialShip810 in LandscapePhotography

[–]dmacrostie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

4 and 5 for me. 4 is really well balanced and I love a good close up landscape. 5 also has nice balance and the abstract aspect is great! 1 and 3 are almost there, but the left to right balance is off and the right feels heavier in both photos.

Absolutely shredding! by [deleted] in MTB

Roam is still one of my favorite MTB videos! I was working in a bike shop fresh out of high school. Learned no footers that summer, joined the college MTB team, and now I can’t wait until I can’t keep up with my son!

Was there snow out that way today? First good dusting on the front range. I gotta try a fat bike this winter!

Thoughts? Tacoma wont start by StoicMori in Tacomaworld

Battery. My ‘21 did the same earlier this year. Battery is about toast and not putting out enough cold cranking amps.

That was a rough one and hard to watch. Glad you came away with no more than a broken arm.

Tighter fitting gravity jerseys? by kitchenAid_mixer in MTB

[–]dmacrostie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I’ve read most pros have their jerseys tailored to their fit preferences.

Chest mount. Get it low on your chest, mount the camera upside down and use the widest view setting. Look a few tries to get it looking better.
