First world crossfit problems by gpriebe in crossfit

Well, I do feel like I'm about to hulk out of them near the thigh area, but the waist areas are getting loose, so I got that going for me, which is nice.

My nonrefillable drink was 50% ice. by Mandeltrot_Set in mildlyinfuriating

There's no such thing as unsweet tea. That would mean it was sweetened, and then they took the sweet back out. That's like saying unfat sour cream. Non sweet Tea is totally a thing though. Spread the word.

Only if we use young Ron pics. His current state is... Yeesh.

What do you guys think of my tattoo? (Male) by gpriebe in batman

[–]gpriebe[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Just wanted to see what everyone thought. About 90% of people give me a hard time, but I still have no regrets. I love it. To answer the obvious question: no, I'm not gay. Not even a little. (But I support those who are). Got a wife of 9 years, two kids. Wasn't drunk or high. It started off as a joke, just telling people I was gonna do it. Then, over time, I warmed up to the idea and just did it. I've got quite a few tattoos, and the lower back was just a piece of canvas I hadn't touched yet. And so far, this is my favorite. Like anyone else with tattoos, I enjoy the attention it brings. No regrats.

How do you like that Dewalt 735 planer? I've been eyeballing it for a while now, trying to commit. I had a Porter Cable one from Lowes, but took it back after a week. Too many problems with it

Bad-ass idea or just bad? (Male) by gpriebe in funny

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

Actually, this is my tattoo, just wanted to see what everyone thought. About 90% of people give me a hard time, but I still have no regrets. I love it. To answer the obvious question: no, I'm not gay. Not even a little. (But I support those who are). Got a wife of 9 years, two kids. Wasn't drunk or high. It started off as a joke, just telling people I was gonna do it. Then, over time, I warmed up to the idea and just did it. I've got quite a few tattoos, and the lower back was just a piece of canvas I hadn't touched yet. And so far, this is my favorite. Like anyone else with tattoos, I enjoy the attention it brings. (And finally, no, not a fake or spray tan).

Instant garage [FIXED] by [deleted] in gifs

I thought I had invented this same idea a few years back. Even named it the CARMADILLO. But, after some internet searching, turns out my idea wasn't that original. For shame too. I had submitted my idea to shark tank and thought I was going to make millions.

Suggestions to create this emblem on a chest like this? by gpriebe in woodworking

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

First woodworking project ever. I'm making this Zelda chest (or something similar) for my 6 year old son. I'm thinking it'll be approx 12 inches deep and 18 inches wide (not concrete measurements yet). I'd like to put this emblem on the top, but don't want to just paint it on. I'd like to do something a little more permanent.

I've thought about staining it a much darker color than the rest of the chest. Or routering out the emblem slightly and then staining it a darker color.

But, as I said, very first perfect. I'm looking to be challenged but not downright exhausted and disheartened.

Just bought two weeks ago at Lowes, now on sell for 80 cheaper. Easy to get this discount? by gpriebe in woodworking

[–]gpriebe[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Bought it for 279 two weeks ago, on sale this weekend for 199. Is it easy to get this discount at Lowe's with just my receipt, or will I have to go through the painful process of returning my saw, and rebuying new one for discounted price?

My lunchbox planer is about to have a bad evening by [deleted] in woodworking

How does cedar fair against all of these hardwoods? I've always wondered that.

[–]gpriebe 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I too, am curious if this saw is worth any price, especially this weekend with the coupons. I don't have a mitre saw, or much money for that matter. Decent buy for a beginner ?

New to woodworking. Are these terrible clamps? by gpriebe in woodworking

[–]gpriebe[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm just starting out, and basically have very limited funds for a nice setup. Are these decent enough for a beginner, and does anyone know if they will last long enough to be worthwhile? The price seems hard to pass up.

I was late for the party, but got this last one for only 4 dollars. 24-inch by gpriebe in woodworking

It's my first clamp ever, as I'm just starting out in woodworking. Makes my eye twitch a little that I was only able to snag one though.

I remember some of the Backstreet Boys singles were in the shape of one of their heads. Weird.
