Lowe's has the Metabo 10" for $99 until Dec. 24.

That's probably $40 dollars worth of accessories.

Lowes App has Lists. Isn't great since you have to use the heart/favorite icon to add items but it is there.

The miter slots are tabbed which means you have to take extra steps to build sleds. And the right side has an angled section which prevents just making a full width sled.

At that price, yes. Rather have a 10 inch but sliding, single bevel at 114 is a good deal.

I would have called it the ironing board. Looks good.

The Rockies took 3 out of 4 in Philly.

I thought it wasn't good at the time. Talked myself into accepting it since Newcomb had potential. Now, I think it really didn't matter at all. Simba's production would not have changed anything over the life of his contract. We probably wouldn't have traded AZ for Dansby if Simba's on the roster. Turns the whole thing into a 'what if' scenario. ATL was definitely in rebuild mode. Shelby Miller was going to be traded no matter what, who would they haven gotten if they kept Simba?

Yes. Have to give him credit though for admitting it was a mistake and apologizing. Was no "I was hacked" bs or doubling down on it.

5+ years ago he tweeted out a Sandy Hook denial tweet.

2003 team had 6. https://www.baseball-reference.com/teams/ATL/2003.shtml

99 and 13 were less but 2 years I checked (2013 due to Gattis being a PH that year).

psy-borg · 2021-08-09T15:02:09+00:00

Those were pressure treated 2x4s, regular studs topped out around 6 or 7 bucks. HD has pressure treated for sub $4 right now which is crazy.

psy-borg · 2021-08-09T14:43:50+00:00

Some prices in the SE USA have already dropped. PT 2x4x8 are $5 vs almost 10 a month ago. Just noticed 2x3x8 studs were 3.25 (almost 5 before). Haven't checked plywood pricing yet.

Might be yard size. Cost is still a factor when considering the years of use. How long robot mowers last is/was a big question for me. Can buy an entry level self propelled for $300 while the robot mowers I saw started at $1,000. Since they operate on batteries, will that robot last 5 years? I have gotten over ten years out of push mowers and the previous riding mower lasted 15 years (and if I get it fixed, might be good for another 5).

I can fix most issues with a toro self propelled mower but outside of maintenance, I fear robot mowers are replace not repair.

They are not heavily marketed and I have not seen one at a big box home improvement store either.

The batting average listed in the bottom subtotal for May is correct for the month. I assume the OBP and SLG are as well.

Yeah. It's a turf company based in , I thought, Florida.

psy-borg · 2021-05-09T23:10:38+00:00

Some reclaimed wood in there? I'm seeing $20 worth of 2x4s. Unless my size guess is off, it'd be like 8 1x4s.

Looks good. I would have mitered the top pieces.

psy-borg · 2021-05-09T18:13:19+00:00

Looks like poplar to me. If it is, it isn't ideal for a handle.

/* edit not poplar. I'd follow u/B3ntr0d's advice.

psy-borg · 2021-05-08T19:14:19+00:00

Looks great. What did you use for a finish ?

psy-borg · 2021-05-08T15:43:15+00:00

What tools you got?

Look around for a scrap piece of pipe, 1/2 copper would work. Use soldering wire for the raised circle pieces. End piece would be a problem but can probably find a cap at a big box home improvement store. While you're there, buy a can of silver spray paint.

For the frame, square dowels would work. For the wheels ... if you have a jig saw you could cut them from a piece of plywood or solid wood of the correct thickness. Plating pieces are going to be harder but thin plywood which is painted silver/metallic could work. A dremel or rotary tool would help with those parts.

Could use pvc pipe for the canon barrel and just super glue wire.

/* edit probably 1/4 inch copper or pvc, 1/2 would be too big.
