So much to do on this old house, so much jank plumbing I need to replace. But it’s working with no leaks so far! Love working with pex, I’m already planning on replacing everything with it.
First time I turned on water I was looking for leaks and a fitting behind me blew (old plumbing) so that turned into another project. Just need to finish strapping this all in… then fix that damn window lol edit; the down pipe after filter is for flushing filters into bucket, I’ll be tidying the drain and power hookup for water softener when I strap everything down

I got a film camera (canonet ql17 giii) after 25+ years and did a “test roll” of fuji 400, most of them came out fine and confirmed the camera works. This was one of the last pics i took having lunch and it ended up being my favorite, warts and all. Now to get ore serious lol.

I shot my first roll in over 25 years, feel like a nervous kid!

Shooting my first test roll before sending off for CLA
It’s in superb shape, its last CLA was in 2008 but the iso lever is stuck, and I like my equipment completely functional. I always wanted to try a range finder and so far, it’s been a lot of fun! Hope the first roll comes out ok lol. I fell in love with the red leather :)

Got a nice drop leaf table from a thrift store with some damage, any tips on how to fix this? We are ok with diminishing the scratches so they aren’t so visible. Sand and stain?

Opportunity to get this, it’s been in storage for 50 years. I don’t know much about these things, or what to even ask. I do plan on getting into medium format and 35mm photography, and did analog photography in the 90’s. Thanks much for any insight !
