Bubble Bath

Shes having a spa day.

Old lodge, at least 1960s but probably older. We,ll see when the rust is off enough to see the bottom.

Building spray booth: question about vent placement.

I've seen people vent from the top and from the bottom behind the filter; does that make a difference? The top makes more sense intuitively to me, but I thought I would check.

Also yo why is foam board or plastic sheeting so god damn expensive, I can get nice 1/2" ply with a decent looking outer layer in a 4*8' sheet or 24"*48" of plastic or expanded foam, that shit is crazy.

I can get a 3/8" plate of carbon steel 12.25*12.25 for $15, only a bit more than plastic, that shit is nuts.

Was recommended pads. and rotors here's me with everything apart, but these look like they have plenty of meat on them.

Toyota CHR 2019 Japan manufactured, four cylinder.

I don't have calipers , but the tip of this screwdriver is 5 mm on my machinist square, and my best guess is the caliper has about 10 mm left on it, I think it was 11 from a factory.

Am I measuring the right part of the brake?

first thing I've lashed together out of stuff from tree trimming that I intend to hang around for longer than a season, we'll see how it does.

My thumb too green, My vibes too good. Theyll split the slab of my house.

this is an elm stake I was using to mark the location of some bait stations I put in, came off of a tree i trimmed.

it's decided it wants to live after all, unfortunately I have to kill it or else it'll split my house in half in 30 years.

Making a 45 deg. rip cut on 12' of 3/4 fiber cement trim: is it possible?

it doesn't need to look good, it just needs to be 45°-ish to go under some flashing.

I tried it with my corded makita circ saw with a cheap 5 point Irwin fiber blade, but I don't think it's going to do it. I didn't want to push too hard and tip over the saw horses, but the saw was not doing the work. I had to lean in a little to even get the 4" test cut to finish.

could I just chip it off with a chisel, or route it with a half horsepower router or something?

I have the angle grinder, but if possible I'd prefer not to use it.

I saw that lodge was having a sale so it went through, picked up a chimney starter and such that I figured was clearance or a me such; as I was on my phone at the time I didn't notice that it was lodge cast iron. info.

The failure on Google's part, it was the first result on the search and sponsored.

I purchased with a generated card number which I have canceled, just warning everybody else since this is something that keeps happening apparently.
