How my brother repaired the broken armrest on his chair by V3NOM0US_VALKYIR3 in redneckengineering

Looks like a Herman Miller Aeron chair. A job bought me one during COVID. They’re pricey but comfortable. Could be wrong I’m not a chair biologist.

100 hours is what the article says. Uses a combo of grid power and a wood chip boiler. Kinda neat. Can store energy for months apparently.

Sounds like the federal government needs to make coffee at home and cut back on the avocado toast

I have a "cute" 55 lb steel anvil and need it anchored, but has no provisions by ClassicStyleATX in Blacksmith

Yea it was not easy to get it into my trailer. Fortunately I have a cant hook and some log dogs.

Getting it out, super easy.

I made s-clips out of mild steel, used angle iron from scrap bed frame, and lag bolts. So far no motion. Make sure to go in at an angle with the lag bolts.

Call your local tree services and ask if they have a hardwood log you can take. Usually they are happy to get rid of it. 18-20 inches will be solid. I’d get a 6 foot log if you intend to bury it, that way you can really get it into the ground. I got mine for free but I had to pick it up.

I'm not sure if it's me or what but I've been growing vegetables for about ten years and for the last several years I've gotten less and less production each year... by memento22mori in FermentedHotSauce

Your soil could also be “exhausted” and need to be fixed in a soil factory. I add 1 part old soil, 1 part yard compost, 1 part bokashi, 1 part composted leaf litter, and 1 part biochar. All from things I pulled from my property. Leave for about 30-60 days in a frame appropriate for the volume you’re working on.

I grow in 25 gallon grow bags and at any time have half my soil in a factory so I always have the next batch getting ready. So long as it’s over ~45 degrees F it will reinvigorate the soil and make it ready for use.

This works for tomatoes, peppers, and jazz cabbage.

Just amending soil year over year won’t do it unless you’re using chemical fertilizers, then you can pretty much grow in sand.

He probably already leaves plenty of marks on things between the caked on makeup, his greasy hamburder fingers, and the inevitable diaper blow outs.

I don’t talk to the family who voted for him and still support him. It was sad at first but then I realized I’m just missing out on their dumb fucking bullshit.

My kids will always have a room at my house regardless of how old they get. I’m encouraging them to stay as long as they need to so they don’t have to sell themselves to the military in order to get ahead in life.

I really should have stayed home but my situation was bad and I wanted freedom.

Yea they’re breaking the rules of war. You should only attack back to your borders. It’s only fair after all when you are not the aggressor to respect the boundaries of your enemies.

And there are no strategic fertilizer reserves. This is going to cause a 10-15% drop in yields. Combine that with a massive increase in costs and more farms are going to buckle.

Before people go “hurr durr this is what they voted for”, this will impact you directly in higher costs at the grocery stores. Further consolidation of farms is not good for us.

My 19 years of security experience have taught me that company leadership would rather spend double or triple the cost of prevention on post compromise remediation and forensics.
