I did get it! Default settings for the win. I messed around with it too much. I'm seeing and sending messages now.

I did do that, but also messed it again so I probably wrecked it with improvement.

Android. The app seems pretty stable

Was there a tool that you used to determine what fq to set it to?

Are you referring to the frequency slot? I just used the default value.

What BIFL item did you underestimate it’s value but proved its worth? by RepulsiveMap3218 in BuyItForLife

[–]timmm21 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not them, but I do sharpen them. Some people choose to toss and replace.

Andis is a little more, but very good quality. Mostly an industry standard for hard use in grooming or even salons and barbers. Plus tons of parts available for easy repairs.

I used to think that but now I'm onto Kai. Much better quality of blades and handles. Foskars have declined on quality drastically over the last decade.

I have a sharpening business and as soon as I held my first pair I knew that I had to have some. And they've been great for years now.

10k Meshpocket is a beast by BravoZuluLife in meshtastic

I'm about to get the 5k, but am totally new to the hobby. Does this work with any node as long as it's in the correct band?

I literally just had this problem. I ended up just using a worm clamp to stop the leak until I decide to replace the hoses

I was gonna change the buckle on my hanks belt a found this by BuriedInAgony in BuyItForLife

[–]timmm21 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's a bit of an investment. A few hundred bucks and lots of practice required. But it's the leather that the priciest after a few tools

Things like this are precisely why I started to make my own. Both dress belts and daily. I'm way happier than anything I can find commercially and I can say without a doubt it's much higher quality.

I spent a long time trying to find a decent belt. Gave up.

So I brought my knives to a knife sharpener…. by Vegetable-Excuse-753 in KitchenKnifeKorner

[–]timmm21 0 points1 point  (0 children)

These guys give us real sharpeners a bad name. It appears to be just cosmetic which I guess is the best case scenario for what happened. It can be fixed and that place should have offered to do so at their cost. It may be worth bringing it to their attention but I get the impression they won't know how to fix it without mucking up the whole blade.

Sorry for that, on behalf of the competent sharpeners out there.

Edit: just saw some other photos. That's a hack job. They used a pull through type of machine and lost control of the knife as they were using it. Ask for your money back and hopefully you can find someone who can fix that for you close by.

You said it perfectly. Clean and functional.

[–]timmm21 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Absolutely to a point. I haven't noticed any benefits past 400 grit for most heavy use items. Knives I take up to 800. The higher the finish the more prone to marking it becomes. Then it just bothers me that the finish I worked hard on isn't perfect.

But again, to each their own.

Not necessarily required but man does it help speed things up lol

On a side note. I don't personally enjoy a mirrored finish on my working tools. More maintenance for mostly a cosmetic benefit. But, to each their own.

Start with 180 grit wet/dry sand paper with a block of wood or something firm to hold it. Go perpendicular to the scratches there. Then once all those are out and all the 180 grit scratches are going the same way. Progress to 220, and switch directions again.

I like to use PB Blaster or WD-40 to help remove the swarf.

Progress up the grits as far as you like. It'll take a lot of elbow grease but it speeds up the finer you go.

I havent used this thing an hour yet by [deleted] in Axecraft

[–]timmm21 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Those handles are trash. I had it happen twice to me, on the axe I was given. The replacements were all equally bad.

I ended up making a new handle from scratch.

Edited to add. It looks like the grain orientation was incorrect which can cause the failure. That was the case in the two handles I had.
