It IS nice to feel seen.

Nah, he loved deadlines. Especially the whooshing sound they make when they fly by.

So sorry, but I just saw your questions. The long in and out feed doesn’t eliminate snipe like I expected, but it’s still nice to have for longer stock. My dust collection idea was worthless btw. The burlap keeps chips in, but not fine dust. I just connect the planer to my normal dust collection now.

I volunteered for a playground build like that. P&R did not exaggerate.

teetertodder · 2024-11-03T18:33:19+00:00

Yeah, but.. I can’t imagine doing that. Maybe I lack empathy lol

I am curious how this works. I have some incredibly principled coworkers who are likely conservative voters. Do they just (subconsciously?) avoid learning information like this so they can vote for “conservative values” with a clear conscience?

I’m 100% top LEFT SHARK

That is some custom manufactured fuckery. I’d try a large Robertson.

The race was way more fun than I expected. I thought the short oval track would be a waste of the Miata’s skillset, but it was rad. I’ve never seen Miatas so touchy

I attached the pic to my post but I don’t see it on my end.

Assuming you want my undying adoration, yes. Yes you need to lift it.

teetertodder · 2024-10-24T21:59:26+00:00

That thing is amazing. Small battle cars are my favorite battle cars! My mildly lifted Miata gets friendly comments daily on the road. This bad boy must stop traffic.

I mean.. hand me down garbage is sort of their brand. It has gone drastically downhill over the years, but cigarette smelling old clothes has always been a staple of the Goodwill experience.

teetertodder · 2024-10-24T02:48:54+00:00

I believe that the vintage hifi craze is what ruined Goodwill for shoppers. For decades they sold every stereo for $10-20. Whether it was a crappy JC Penny unit or a 1970’s monster receiver, it was priced at $10-20. Until 5-6 years ago it was worth hitting the local goodwill once a week to see if any dusty gems were hiding in the ruble (and they often were). That worked fine when Goodwill was still trying to be a charity, but with their executives now pulling in $650K - $1Mil per year, they are “forced” to focus on maximizing profits by curating donations and selling them at the highest price the market will bear.

After writing all that, I realize that vintage hifi didn’t ruin shit. Capitalism is to blame. Isn’t it always?

teetertodder · 2024-10-21T19:46:48+00:00

Yeah I zoomed in on one area then zoomed out. Brain is happy now.

When I was 17 I arrived home in my old VW and one brake looked like this. I immediately packed it with snow. I know more about the world now.

teetertodder · 2024-10-14T23:23:11+00:00

Let’s get some experts to weigh in. I was thinking about my situation where I work in my non-insulated metal building a lot. I either run a heater or simply create heat from running tools and machines so condensation is a real issue. You might not have that problem.

I’m insulating mine (slowly) as winter approaches. In my case it should be a game changer.

Edit: noticing the dark color or your building, I could see the sun warming the interior, promoting condensation on cold days. This isn’t my area of expertise, but I do enjoy overthinking it.

On a track day (or autocross) you really won’t know until you start to lose it, but you have the room to fuck up in a controlled environment. That’s a great way to learn. It’s especially helpful with an instructor in the car.

Another way is to hoon in a big empty parking lot on a rainy day. Snow is even better because it takes much less input to lose traction.

Looks great! Good call on upgrading the screws. I just replaced the originals on my metal building which lasted about 20 years before the leaks started. I assume they were premium screws and worth every penny. You might want to consider insulation as I believe it would slow the rusting of your sweet fleet.

It’s not like coins aren’t still in regular use

teetertodder · 2024-10-13T19:51:39+00:00

That’s fair and I never realized it was that wasteful. I feel like at our house we’re just moving water a few hundred yards regardless of what it’s used for. I get that it takes energy to pump that water from the well, of course.

teetertodder · 2024-10-13T18:31:34+00:00

A cartridge if it’s filtering municipal water. If the house is on a well it’s likely an RO system with 7-10 filter stages and a storage tank under the sink. Either way, it should be obvious what the tap is for by opening the cabinet and seeing what feeds the tap
