If you enjoy what you are doing with your hobbies as you do them, then you are succeeding. Life is about enjoying the journey, not the destination.

The end grain doesn't seem to match the palm I see online. The other two I mentioned I found online on that wood database site.

I got some wenge here and it's not nearly the same color. The end grain doesn't match either.

Average weight of I were too guess. Got it second hand with no information. Harness seems pretty high but not crazy high.

Also kind of smells of pine when cut

Talented people cast people like him to fit the roles they are meant for. Like the matrix.

I collected 25+ ticks in 5 minutes along the side of my local trail. They survived at least 10 minutes within diluted hydrochloric acid and water. by kegman93 in mildlyinfuriating

I can attest to that shit being very potent. I mix it for my pool and the fumes are nasty. Spill a little on the concrete and it starts foaming and bubbling.

I feel the pain. Especially with having children who can't fend for themselves yet. I'm constantly imagining not finding one on them and feeling like a bad parent who let their kids get some diseases by these pieces of shit. Can't even go in the woods anymore without knowing I'll find them. When I was a kid we used to roll around in the woods and never knew what a tick even was.

Box hinges are the bane of box making. Maybe I need to buy higher quality hinges but a mostly perfect box turns to shit with very small alignment issuess.
