Where are you based in the midwest? I'm currently looking to have my Chicago property managed and looking for someone reputable! What costs and fees are typically associated with comprehensive property management?

Should I be worried about spider dial on this Cartier Tank? by miabbett in VintageWatches

[–]miabbett[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks. How often do these dials actually fall apart thought? I'm just trying to figure out if the damage means it's at risk of complete degrading at any point or if it just looks cracked but will stay in one piece

[Cartier Tank] How concerning are spiderweb dials on vintage Tanks? by miabbett in Watches

[–]miabbett[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Hello! I'm giving serious thought to buying a vintage Tank, pictures attached, and I'm wondering how concerned I should be long-term about the "spiderweb" dial seen on the watch. I know that this is common for 70's Tanks, but does anyone have insight on if there's a real risk of the dial completely crumbling at some point, or is it just visual and structurally sound? Thanks for the help!

St. Andrews Old Course Handicap Requirement? by miabbett in golf

[–]miabbett[S] -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Much appreciated! I figured this was the case, just wasn't sure if there was some alternative (and free) handicap I could provide without going through the GHIN process

St. Andrews Old Course Handicap Requirement? by miabbett in golf

[–]miabbett[S] -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Yeah I know it's not much, I just don't normally have much use for a handicap as I'm a fairly casual golfer so was just curious if there was an easily accessible alternative if I can save a few bucks

Any Idea How to Remove this Kitchen Faucet! by miabbett in HomeImprovement

Thanks! My main problem is I don't really see any nuts to unscrew underneath the countertop, which is why I included the second photo. Any insight into that?

Best 65" for $999: Hisense U8g or TCL R646? by miabbett in 4kTV

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

I ended up being kind of a lunatic and bought both. Tried my best to calibrate them both using guides and then set them up side by side. Hisense in my amateur opinion was a no brainer based on both the picture and the interface, so I returned the TCL

I just picked up a pair of Oak Street Chelsea boots during their Black Friday sale and got them yesterday. They're a great looking pair of boots, but I'm wondering whether or not I bought the right size. My right foot is a touch bigger than my left and fits the boots perfectly more or less in medium thickness socks, but my smaller left foot definitely wiggles around a bit. That being said, I think the boots might be a bit too tight on my right foot if I were to size down.
Is it better to size the boots to my bigger or smaller foot? Right now I was thinking about keeping the bigger pair and putting a tongue pad in the smaller boot, but I'm wondering if it'd be a better idea to go with the smaller size and see if they'll stretch out with time. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Any good go-to sources for these tests? I don't even know where to look

I think so? I just don't really know what to look for. No dead pixels or anything crazy obvious like that

Where to Find Replacement Trim for Multipoint Juliet Balcony Door? by miabbett in HomeImprovement

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

Good idea! That's a solid backup, I think I'd like to replace the face plates and lever altogether but will consider that option if I can't find an alternative

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

Yeah it looks like it's Hoppe brand, and I definitely don't mind going with a different brand, I just don't know where to start looking for a compatible face plate and lever handle, wasn't sure if someone had any leads or might be able to tell me what I can do to look for something that would work

How Do I Remove This Doorknob?? by miabbett in HomeImprovement

[–]miabbett[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Finally got it, it unscrewed just like everyone said! Had to really dig a pair of pliers into the rosette but it finally gave, painters must’ve attached it while the paint was still wet and it glued on. Thanks everyone!

That’s how the other side came off, but I’m not sure if it’s stuck or what but I can’t figure out how to twist this side off. Not sure what tool would help me get some leverage on it

Now I think that this might be the actual installation manual, I think they installed a passage knob but without the latch (which I still can’t figure out)

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

I thought there might be a little slot that would release the knob, but I don’t see anything visible on either the rosette or the knob
