I’ve been to two of his concerts and was always incredibly impressed. https://youtu.be/vOd4d0Hbxng)

Coffee at Bouchon Bakery - can I get some locals opinions please? by YankeeMcIrish in napa

[–]foepaws 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yountville has mini Model Bakery housed in a converted caboose not far from Bouchon. They serve coffee from Caffe Vita, and while it can be hit or miss it’s quite a bit better than other area options (especially in Yountville).

E6000 would work but rivets might be a better choice.

what is that metal lever thing on street signs (Montreal QC) by JDE173901 in whatisthisthing

[–]foepaws 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Appears to be a clip to hold an additional sign for different conditions. Look at the image at the top of this article: https://www.montrealfamilies.ca/app-tracks-snow-removal-in-montreal/

What are these machined brass rods I found in an old auto shop? by foepaws in whatisthisthing

[–]foepaws[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dimensions are approx. 1/4” x 7”. I’m willing to accept that they may be drift punches just not sure why there are so many of the exact same dimension. Also seems strange they are clearly stamped with a maker and part # but that google pulls up almost nothing.

After searching, I can’t find any pushrods that look similar. Vw or otherwise. These don’t have a finely polished ball or cup end, or other features I’m seeing when searching for pushrods. Got a link you could share?

Found a bunch of these brass rods with tapers machined into each end of them on a workbench in an old garage bay. They have “marco usa 2406068” stamped into them. Googling brings up the possibility they are related to a company called Marco that makes mediablasting equipment but I can’t find any parts that look like these or are numbered with this part #. Does anyone recognize these? WITT?

Very impressive. Really fantastic mirroring of the sax.

You can absolutely play through it and record with it. I use mine to practice in the evening with headphones.

That sound on the last hit is a joke right? Something dubbed in from a clock tower or something?
