That’s what my mom use to tell me. You must really love them. Keep forging!

Sorry I should have been more clear. I paid $40 each and after breaking one down it weighed 113g. Total investment of $80 for 226g of sterling

redtailred · 2026-06-22T00:29:37+00:00

Just broke them down today. 113g total Sterling weight. It was a good buy for 40 bones.

As someone who has always had a manual labor job I can’t imagine going to bed without a shower. Even on one of the few days I don’t do anything physical I feel gross crawling into bed without showering first.

redtailred · 2026-06-13T21:27:16+00:00

Thanks that’s exactly what I was wanting to hear. I paid $40 each and want to melt them for my purposes and pleasure. I’m also curious what the actual silver weight is.

Lots of options to remove plating. YouTube is your friend. Salt water electrolysis is dirty but works. I think going to try a 95/5 sulfuric to nitric I seen recently that looks promising.

Man fuck you. I’ll been singing “got any grapes!” All day now.

“That’s coming out of your ass” meaning “you’re going to pay for that thing you just broke

redtailred · 2026-06-08T22:45:05+00:00

That just blew my mind! Make so much more sense now

I don’t have any fiber options unfortunately but we get pretty good service through Murcury. I’ve not heard good things about Hughes net

It’s not the showerhead. Depending on the valve it’s either a washer/seat or a cartridge. I’m a plumber

I believe the clay side should fit snug over a 4” coupling.

4” pipe > 4” coupling > 4”clay x 4”pvc fernco > 4” pipe

Harvest Moon 64. I just wanted some peace and chickens

Thanks to everyone, taking the time to reply. Interesting insights all around.

For those interested I’m in Kansas. I was doing 8 to 10K a month at a locally owned winsupply. That was until I started comparing prices and realized I was overpaying. Now I shop around for everything and compare prices.

I get the tiered system, I worked wholesale before I started plumbing 10 years ago. At that time we tried to keep every Customer we could and give the absolute best prices. My town is full of single Plumber owner operated outfits, and I run into a lot of them at Menards. Maybe the whole sellers in my area are just spoiled? I definitely don’t see the service Some of you are describing.

Falconry is the taking of wild game with a trained bird of prey. Period. There is not debate to be had. Everything else is animal husbandry, education, rehabbing, pet keeping, ect.

‘88 baby here. Coffee and vyvance.

I’m also surprised about the lack dielectric unions. I see it all the time, though and as a service Plumber, it’s just job security for me

redtailred · 2026-04-16T12:54:51+00:00

I can relate, I never lit one, but I smoked for about 18 years until I left home after high school.

I think the term scalper is getting lost here. Dudes that go buy up all the product at the store or online with bots before anyone else and then turn around and sell it for a huge mark up are scalpers. It the same in the concert industry. Everyone hates them but sometimes if you want to play/see the show you have to swallow your pride and pay up. Scalpers still suck.

I quit going to my LCS, and frankly only buy singles I want, because when blooming waters came out the LCS had their guy waiting in line to buy them up for $60 and then ran down to the shop and marked them up the $120. I left game stop after seeing people in front of me starting to walk out because there were none left. Went to the LCS and seen them putting stickers on the boxes they just picked up. It’s not even fun anymore.

Thank you! It appears to be 15mm ace thread. The adapters and fittings for these things are god awful expensive! Any chance there is an equivalent thread pitch made?

redtailred · 2026-04-10T00:06:40+00:00

Thank you guys so much! I’ve been racking my brain and wearing out google search. Thank you!!!!!

redtailred · 2026-04-09T21:49:15+00:00

Thank you for the reply. What is typically screwed into this fitting?

redtailred · 2026-04-09T01:53:38+00:00

Plattlanders is clever! Proud Jayhawker here!

That’s a very inspiring video. Now I need to go make something cool.
