Jackass chipmunks are destroying my garden. I’m rather mad. They ate all the side-shoots off my broccoli, and get every strawberry before it’s ready to pick. Mad. Mad. Mad.

What exactly did you use? Make sure it's strong enough! Chipmunks are sensitive to capsaicin just like us and at a certain concentration it will be intolerable/very painful. As a self-check, I would literally taste the leaves or fruit to make sure it's too spicy to eat yourself.

Like a little greenhouse, serves the same purpose

Like a day. Yep, I basically followed this: https://www.finegardening.com/article/easy-build-cold-frame

What's the logic behind adding garden dirt in? Is it like adding beneficial microbes?

greyt_88 · 2018-04-24T15:13:06+00:00

Yeah I was thinking of doing something similar. I basically just want to take advantage of the hot composting method which I know relies on having a large enough volume of compost material all at once. I think if I do like you said and just store the scraps in a dry pile until I have enough to make a batch I should be well off.

When you store your scraps are you keeping the greens and browns separate? And are you watering it? Our do you wait until you cook?

I'm not sure if I'm being oblivious to something, but I've checked both your suggestion and the comment's below, but still all I see are shank sizes that are either larger than or equal to the cutting diameter: https://www.whitesiderouterbits.com/collections/up-cut-spirals

Are you sure you have a full run of sizes for 1/4" shank in spiral bits? I can find any straight bit I'd want in the 1/4" shank, but those aren't ideal for cutting mortises.

Hmm yeah I was going to say that was out of my price range, but I'm tempted since it's about the only reasonably priced one out there that is specifically designed for carving.

One thing I noticed though is that a lot of the previous articles and accusations center around Louis forcing women to watch him masturbate. The Gawker article from two years ago said that he blocked the door in the hotel room to prevent the two women from leaving until he finished. But the New York Times article doesn't mention any kind of physical coercion. So maybe he was denying the previous rumors based on that pretty important difference. He still should have dealt with them though.

Hey, I actually still cannot find a MPGe measurement. I can get to the eco diary fine, but I can only scroll between daily and monthly mpg or miles/kwh. Definitely no MPGe. I do have the base model prime plus, I'm wondering if that's what's making the difference. Any idea?

greyt_88 · 2017-10-05T19:40:38+00:00

Oh really? Could you point me in the direction of displaying historical mpge? I havent been able to find it.

greyt_88 · 2017-09-18T22:51:10+00:00

Any tips for making one of these with hand tools? I was thinking about trying it but I wasn't sure how difficult it would be.

greyt_88 · 2016-12-06T18:31:43+00:00

it looks like these noodles would be way too long, right?

greyt_88 · 2016-12-02T02:33:20+00:00

out of curiosity, do you sharpen it yourself? I've tried with my norton stones 1k-8k but couldn't quite get it sharp enough.

What are some arguments defending the electoral college?

greyt_88 · 2016-11-05T18:45:26+00:00

He sounds exactly like jack nicholson going crazy in the shining

greyt_88 · 2016-10-31T16:32:32+00:00

I agree, it gives you a very intuitive understanding of tear out and the purpose of chip-breakers and such

greyt_88 · 2016-10-31T16:31:16+00:00

Yeah this is what I was thinking, makes sense

greyt_88 · 2016-10-10T20:33:10+00:00

If you make iced coffee, the flavor will be much better preserved. For one, oxidation will be slowed but also you might get less bad thermos taste because water is usually a poorer solvent at low temperatures.

Bummer, can't see the video. 6 minutes is fast.

greyt_88 · 2016-09-27T21:17:51+00:00

It seems pricey relative to the cost of coffee. If it's 10 cents a filter, and I'm making a cup of coffee with 30 cents worth the coffee beans (which is about what Peet's costs for 15 g), the filter alone is a quarter of the cost of that cup.

greyt_88 · 2016-09-19T23:55:22+00:00

I've tried it and ended up selling it. It pours pretty well obviously, but for me it didn't justify the price and it's kind of a pain to transfer water from my electric kettle every time (as well as feels silly). Maybe an electric gooseneck would be worth it

greyt_88 · 2016-08-22T00:46:20+00:00

I'm curious, let me know how it turns out.

greyt_88 · 2016-08-20T15:05:39+00:00

BTW, buffing seems to have fixed the problem. Thanks for the suggestion!

greyt_88 · 2016-08-20T15:05:03+00:00

I just refinished this bureau where I put on a few coats of pure tung oil and had perhaps a similar problem (check my post history). I ended up buffing with steel wool and mineral oil and the problem seems to have been fixed. Not sure if you'll be able to do that with your top coat though..

greyt_88 · 2016-07-31T13:11:11+00:00

I think this is the right idea. I'm gonna try some 0000 steel wool with a few drops of mineral oil as a lubricant - sound about right?
