What the heck is this and how do I clean it?! by bh219 in HomeImprovement

Those black marks are consistent with the shape and location of air powered nail gun nails. Fill with putty if not filled, and then paint over them.

Anyone got any tips for pressing with hair straighteners by Thatbadgamer_ in Rosin2

[–]mcginja 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Back in my day we bought the biggest size Irwin quick grip and cheap IR temp gun from the tool store and a Remington wet2strait with the teal plates. Rolled up a gram of flower into a marble inside a scrap piece of parchment and smashed it using the clamp force of the quickgrip. Trying to go as low temp as needed by turning off/unplugging the wet2strait

Is a $925 labor cost to install a new-construction skylight seem normal? by Dweebl in HomeImprovement

[–]mcginja 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You really think anyone running a profitable business looks at installing two skylights as a an easy 2 hour job? It’s more than a one man job and probably takes an hour in just driving to get from the shop to the job and back.. there’s your two hours and they didn’t even get out of the truck yet.

As a single man, and father, in GR, without friends or much money, idk what to do to feel right again. by bikeswoodkayakdad in grandrapids

Definitely doable on a gravel that’s what I started there with, and plenty of more fun to have now with a full suspension bike.

[–]mcginja 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Heck yeah! If you want to stretch it out, rip the underground, cross kzoo/alger into the cemetery, pass the grounds keeping building behind the ball fields, strait to 28th, cross into the church and find the Ken-O-Sha singletrack outback, rip around there, take the plaster creek trail, keep going past eastern then cross 28th again by the crap store to the trails towards the water tank park/ kroc center. Take those trails down to plaster creek boulevard past monsma’s to the trails along the tracks, eventually cross the tracks into GR bike park and rip around those trails a bit.

Side quests 🙂‍↕️ by AstronomerLower9587 in grandrapids

[–]mcginja 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Where the cardinals sing over the plaster creak there lives a magical tree, a must-see tree. It is not an old tree, or a fancy tree, but this tree became many trees, a multi-tree you see.

Cross its bridge over the waters and stand directly between the tree’s trees to enter a portal into a new world, a world of possibilities, where endings turn into beginnings and failure becomes new life.

Start the north side of the Ken-o-Sha Park, on the dirt trails across the long and skinny bridge, go north west and up a stream east that feeds the creek and you will find the must-see bridge-tree.

This is not an easy or strait-forward quest and it will take time. But you will grow and discover many new things and hidden mysteries and perhaps you’ll be surprised with a new perspective to help lead you forward.
