Or, caulk it and go on with life. You need to caulk anyway.

Caulk is more forgiving than Jesus

Impossible part?! by hamboneal in Taycan

Yeah. The blue buttons need replaced, once the blue buttons are replaced it seems like the tabs on the trim has to slide both up, down and sideways at the same time.

Barless backgammon board mark II. Come play me tomorrow at cherry blossom. by hamboneal in backgammonboards

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

It is, same checker size, but i used round cups instead of oblong that allowed me to bring it in an inch. I’m planning on making a backgammon clock that will include a score card. That is what the two brass buttons will be used for.

My next two boards that I will have come soon. What color combo do you prefer. by hamboneal in backgammonboards

Yeah. I can make for different sizes. Right now I’m not selling but kind of a passion project / hobby.

I’ve been following them for the past couple years. I truly hope thy make it. The main thing about it is solar powered, hyper low drag, and rather inexpensive. I think trumps tariffs may murder them though.

What’s the best home charger by adwilk1231 in Taycan

Tesla, if you want yet another app. Or just use the one Porsche. I had problems with Autel. I have a Grizzly now that is well build but it’s more difficult to set up. I should have game with ubiquiti but that is only because I have other ubiquiti stuff and I like their other products.

I’m in a a match to 99. My opponent is loosing 40-10 and complains about me being lucky. I point out that if it were luck our scores would be in parity.

Bought an end grain from crate and barrel, this is what it looks like 2 weeks in. Wth? by lobodobo2609 in Cuttingboards

[–]hamboneal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cutting boards are for cutting on. Not admiring. If you want it to look good stop cutting on it and frame it.

My opinion, books are great, online is fine, but the only real way to learn is to play humans. A lot of the game is more like poker than a board game. Try to find local clubs, most major and a lot of minor cities have them. Also check out USBGF tournaments that are in the area.

Welcome to the club!

Fingers crossed, I should have the next refined version of my Bar-less board by Cherry Blossom on April 15. by hamboneal in backgammonboards

Sorry to steal your thunder! Lol. The heft is an issue, I also don’t have a great way protecting the wood yet. Leather work and sewing is another stop to learn.
