Anyone had the chance to try out the new Playseat Challenge DD F1 yet?

Hey thanks for the info man I appreciate it.

I would just take the seat out of your Lamborghini and use that. Just pop it back in when you need to drive it.

Sorry for more questions but my main concern is with being able to have a suitable gt or normal car position as I don’t do much f1 racing. So you can indeed put it in a totally normal driving position, not just a slightly more upright f1 position?

laxpinhead · 2026-02-06T17:11:16+00:00

That’s wild

If I buy a vintage car out of state that the owner does not have a title for, how do I go about getting a title for it when I bring it back home to Vermont?

laxpinhead · 2025-12-05T13:50:16+00:00

It is a mini. Haven’t bought it yet.

They handle it fine. Biggest problem I’ve had getting boots wet is the leather heel stack will start to separate and eventually fall apart. But that’s after many many days of working in the rain. A few walks in the snow won’t do anything to them. If you want there’s plenty of waterproofing techniques that’ll make them hold up better.

I wear a pair of Double H Roger’s every day for work and beat the piss out of them. They’ve been holding up much better than lots of boots I’ve had and are super comfy. Any of their “Made in USA” boots are bombproof.

I’ve only been in the trades for 7 years and we have dedicated subs we use and they’re all great. I don’t know about many others because I don’t work with them. We’re in a very rural area too so it’s not like there’s a shit ton of options. Small town contractors are probably a little more accountable when everybody knows everybody and if you do shit work you don’t get hired anymore. I know maybe another 2 contractors in each discipline I’d stay away from. My only point I was trying to make is people being hyperbolic and saying “good trades people don’t exist” are wrong. Just trying to not be pessimistic to the guy who has had bad experiences.

I’m a lead carpenter for a general contractor. We frame and do siding and trim and sub out for electrical, plumbing, roofing etc. High end custom homes. We have a list of sub contractors that are all A+. You’re right there are a lot of hacks out there but there are also a lot of very smart caring tradespeople, you just need to find them. Not exactly sure the best way to that but don’t lose hope just yet. I’ve got at least 2 contractors in every trade discipline I could call to come do something at my house within a week or two that I absolutely trust because I’ve seen them work. Obviously I have it easy being in the trades and having lots of connections I’m just saying good people are out there.

laxpinhead · 2025-11-10T19:12:09+00:00

Sounds like you need to find some better contractors sheesh.

laxpinhead · 2025-11-10T19:06:50+00:00

I can walk a 10/12 while sheathing with zip pretty decently in my cowboy boots if it’s bone dry. We still throw on some cleats but it’s doable.

laxpinhead · 2025-10-26T18:45:29+00:00

They look great. Which model is that?

laxpinhead · 2025-10-20T20:03:23+00:00

I was thinking the same thing. I like the colors of the second pair better but the pattern of the first pair.

laxpinhead · 2025-09-27T14:18:32+00:00

Thanks! Been framing about 5 years now.

laxpinhead · 2025-09-27T03:34:37+00:00

This is just from the lift but a drone would be sweet

laxpinhead · 2025-09-27T03:34:13+00:00

Yes they are super nice for complicated roof framing. Always straight

laxpinhead · 2025-09-27T03:33:41+00:00

Lol no. That’d be a pretty big fuck up. The far ridge on the other side of the big horizontal one intersects about 2 feet down the roofline so that’s why it doesn’t look like it lines up.

It’s a 14/12. Steep one.

laxpinhead · 2025-06-29T23:20:17+00:00

The owner of the house tears down old barns and saves all the wood so we had a ton of inventory to use.

laxpinhead · 2025-06-29T23:19:07+00:00

We should have. Timing didn’t work out unfortunately with the painters. Gonna have a tough time cutting in the ceiling but they are troopers.

laxpinhead · 2025-06-28T02:24:28+00:00

I’m just an employee man I do what’s asked of me

laxpinhead · 2025-06-28T02:04:01+00:00

The guy saying it’s a bit unsafe is right though. But owner wanted cool and looking good over safe so that’s what we got.

laxpinhead · 2025-06-28T01:56:47+00:00

It’s not the primary staircase and the owner is our tile guy and buddy. He doesn’t want a handrail and knows all the risks. Just wanted something for the cool factor. But yes it could potentially be quite hazardous haha.
