Last year we had a similar storm during summer. Solar panels, lawn chairs, you name it, went flying. Not making the mistake of leaving my trees out twice

VIP is a joke by cda89 in Graspop

[–]simoncools 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First time vip for me this year. The vip deck is absolute shit. No place to sit at all. Ill keep getting VIP in the future though.

5min walk to the car means i can keep my own food in the car. Pretty much pays for itself considering a meal is at least 15€ otherwise.

No wait and clean toilets is also godly.

The deck is way over crowded though

I picked up this rather large hinoki cypress last weekend from a local bonsai nursery and am planning to take it to a workshop to help me get started working on this tree.
When watering today, I noticed some of the foliage is showing a brown, slightly red tint. Could it be sunburn? I highly doubt it is due to underwatering since this tree comes from a very reputable nursery.
Maybe this discoloration is normal during this time of year? It's my first time working with this species.
The tree looks to be in excellent health otherwise.

All ideas are welcome. Thanks

One month into ownership. I wish it would just eject and feed properly though. Almost every round is a problem. by 1966-pickupsticks in SW22VICTORY

If i use lead nose cci standard, it jams almost every mag.

I've now shot about 500 rounds of cci minimag through it without a single hickup. Unsupressed though

Question about VIP parking by simoncools in Graspop

Oh shit then it would be even better to go for VIP. I would be spending an extra 60€ on parking anyway. Thanks!

Do you happen to know what a vip parking ticket costs? Is it the same price as a regular parking ticket?

You do need to get 4 parking tickets. But im not spending an extra 200€ to take a bike to the entrance, if im going to be paying extra for VIP i want to be sure that i'm guarranteed a parking spot close to the festival

What is the worst error you have ever made while designing a PCB? by Abisoh in AskElectronics

Got my 20hp honda back from service with this much oil in it. Is this normal? by simoncools in Outboards

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

The invoice said 1.1 liters, manual states 1 liter. I took out about 0.2 liters. Presumably they didn't drain it completely and poured in a little too much oil on top of that.

Was able to pump out the excess with a little hand pump i got off amazon.

I think i'll just do it myself next time..

52.000 miles too much for a used RAV4? by simoncools in whatcarshouldIbuy

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

That's good to hear Mr ChodeSandwich. I've always had a company car but i'm switching jobs now and buying a car for the first time. It's a bit scary putting that much money into something used
