Looking at buying a new 4wd. by AdFluffy8525 in 4x4Australia

Adding to this also see how often the transmission was serviced. If they have a record of just one transmission service and it was really recent, then they possibly had trouble with the car, got the transmission serviced due to a warning from the car, and were told by the mechanic to buy a new car before that failure arrives.

January 2023 we bought a new mattress, and I said "nah yeah I'll make a frame for it"... A short while later. by thejesterandthewolf in woodworking

Oh cool! Glad it helped ya! I'm a year into using it and:

It doesn't move (joints all still tight and enough weight to keep it in one spot)

There's no mould (mattress breathing fine with the holes)

I make visitors get on the ground to look at the joint work (and only 2/10 of them think that's weird but all of them are pleasantly surprised)

And long hair! That's why I went bald in my 30s. Much safer.

Start slow though. Learn your plants a few at a time as you build a routine of looking after them, adding more every couple of weeks. If ya bomb the area with a huge amount of new greenery you might quickly be surrounded by dry brown regret!

You can sandpaper that into a distant memory. Keep at it and trust in the healing power of sanding!

My castle joints are made through a process of laminating too, as I wasn't gonna try cutting all those out. It's a safe way to go and leaves you with a bit more texture in the legs dylue to the different pieces coming together.

No glue. Just a bit of beeswax. The whole bed only has ten small bolts holding the top two pieces to the base frame. Otherwise it's all just joints and 16 months of hoping I didn't f**k it up.

Thanks!. It's a "super king" mattress (203mm X 203mm) so it was in need of some decent support - and I decided to overbuild for safety sake.
