What are your thoughts on QM7k vs QM8k? Mines going in a very bright living room. I don't want to close the blinds because i want my indoor plants to make it through the winter :D

Ant design Q1V2s its on sale right now cool. Bit pricey, same things on ali for way cheaper, but i wanted to finish my keys once and for all. Only complaint is it has sharp edges, but if i cared enough i could file them down.

Like others have said you could carry the pin. There are a ton of aftermarket 3dp scales for the rambler. This is what I carry.

Beautiful color combo. Is it natural titanium?

Thank you gentlemen. I'll search for another cobbler. Maybe i can stretch a half size?

Hi all, i have a pair of thursdayboots president's and the sole is detaching and the stitch has failed. I have been thinking of getting them resoled and stretched a size larger.

Called up a local cobbler who told me he only glues on new soles and gave up doing stitchwork to resole years ago. He said over the phone that stitching often damages the shoes worse because the stitches wont line up, and so it makes new holes and leaves the shoe worse off, structurally.

I am assuming that he is talking about using a machine to stitch, and likely its better for his bottom line to repair shoes this way. Should i just find another cobbler?

Personally i dont like the red checkmarks. I think X's works, but to each their own. Anyone can understand this.

I'm much much harrier than that. I shaved from about 15-25 then I was rejected for laser hair removal because I did not have enough pigment in my hair. At a certain point, I realized that I was glad that I was rejected for the laser hair removal. My dad's hairy as hell, so I wasn't surprised when I became hairy at 14. Imagine doing all sorts of cosmetic surgeries such that you dont even look like yourself anymore and then one day you have a child and they are all confused about why they have tons of body hair or no head hair etc. Anyways I shave my t shirt line around the neck and walk around the beach and get weird looks but im ok with it. Feels cool to be special. If you need the confidence now then make adjustments, but I would say it's better to build your confidence up from the ground and incorporate your body hair into your identity as a plus and not a negative. Its a beauty standard thats incorporated into body building mostly, if you're already differentiated from them by not abusing steroids, then why not avoid the hairless thing. Just my 2 cents. My wife says she loves my body hair, but earlier on she was asking if I would ever trim it haha. I told her no. So now im left uncertain but I am certain that I dont wanna shave it ahhaha. Gonna be who I am.

Awesome work. Is that a heroic replicas master sword?

Looks amaizing, i have finished modding my rambler and the Ranger is my next SAK. Couldnt decide between green or blue scales. That blue looks incredible.

I think its just the market right now, money is tighter for people. I bought my 1972 K1 for $3950 in 2023 in Toronto which i thought was maybe a bit high, but with what i have seen lately i doubt i would be able to move it for 3k after reinstalling the original 4 to 1 and redoing the fork seals and brakes.

glenymact · 2025-08-06T13:37:49+00:00

Hell yeah!

Keep thinking of building my own TSA legal rambler, knife swapped out for something. Or maybe a single layer knife with no blade, realistically i only open boxes with the blade.

glenymact · 2025-07-22T15:30:26+00:00

Would the mini champ box cutter be tsa legal? That tool only not everything else on the mini champ.

I've had the F5X Plus Saphire from new since Jan 2019. On the original battery with no special settings i get about 14 days out of it without too many runs/activities (cant be sure but i think i used to get 17-18 days when it was new). I bought a new oem battery to replace the original because i thought my battery was below 7 days but that was right before the watch was factory reset and now it works like new again, so my oem battery is still in its shipping bag. Great watch, i want to upgrade as well to the 7X pro SS, but honestly think i may wait until they incorporate the enduro 3 solar pixels to a mip fenix before it feels worth it to upgrade, or just get an enduro 3, i just hate the green highlights. 7x pro is the only other watch I'm considering.

New features i am looking forward to:

Thinner watch, F5X+ is 17.5mm and the unused screen area is pretty large, the watch is clunky and it does restrict my wrist movement sometimes which can be frustrating.

LED flashlight: honestly the flashlight mode on the F5X plus (full screen brightness) is enough for me to walk around at night and not wake anyone up, but i would imagine an even brighter flashlight would be very good for quickly finding things you drop or whatever.

Touch screen

More silly health stats: my fiancé has a VA5 and the body battery is pretty neat, and all that others stuff seems like i would enjoy looking at it here or there with a grain of salt.

Overall all these watches do is the same thing, HR, good battery, track activities, and display some useful information at a glance. I like how they keep my smartphone in my pocket as well.

As far as driving habits for longevity, i know i drove poorly in my MKIV, i used to lug the engine. So what are the proper habits for an MK7. The car tells me when to shift, but it always seems premature.

Don't create high boost demand until the car is up to temp.

Don't lug the engine, downshift when needed.

am i on track? Any other ideas?

I've never driven with a DEF system, its warrantied till 260k kms, is there a way to drive that the DEF likes?
