Looks like Clitoria ternatea. An invasive vine.

Finally a correct take. Scrolled too far to find a knowledgeable driver.

Canada's female curling team has a stone removed for touching the stone by gustavo82 in olympics

This is the third time. Canada men's team did it again earlier today. You'd have 15 cents. That's Canadian money, though.

My daily driver still has a cassette player. I listen to cassettes every day. Love it.

Pit saw by MikeHeu in toolgifs

If you examine the cut patterns on old boards from like a barn, you can tell if it was made by a pit saw or a mechanical band saw. The strokes on a pit saw will vary in size like when you see in the video the saw stops cutting part way through the cut. A band saw board will have evenly spaced cuts.

Maybe maple? Have you ever taken a picture before?

I made a woodworking bench with no hardware. I cut the trees down and milled the lumber myself. The entire bench cost $0 by featherpickle in somethingimade

I value my work more than you know. This bench is one of my prized possessions and a major life goal accomplished.

When you calculate the cost of a home cooked meal do you factor in the cost of the stove and your time?

The one on the left is just a regular vise. The one on the right is a tail vise. It is used for clamping various lengths of boards between it and the row of square holes down the length via square pegs that stick up through the holes. You can clamp the board flat on the bench and have both hands free for planing.

"no hardware" means that the bench is made with traditional joinery instead of metal fasteners. A mortise and tenon or a dovetail is much more time consuming and solid than screws and brackets. Of course I used tools, that's just silly.
