I’m in NJ, America. I want to buy some olive wood for a project, a gift for my uncle whose family is from Greece.
I would like to know where to buy some, and how to know it’s from Greece? Anyone in here know how to go about it?
My neighbor has a 2009 Pilot 3.5L V6, and it has the common startup tick for a few seconds.
On my friend’s 2.4L Accord, it was the VTC Actuator.
On this, from what I’ve read, it’s the front valve body [there’s a front and rear on the V6]. Is this correct? If not, what is it?
I work for a shop in northern New Jersey. I have a huge Walnut slab I’m looking to sell. It measures 240” x 46”-52” x 3-1/2”.
Where can I find out its worth, and where is a good place to sell it?
Their summer sale has a few Thrice records available, if anyone is looking.
Thrice are one of my two favorite bands, and I have had the pleasure and opportunities to shoot them when they tour in the NY/NJ area for a few years now.
Seeing them last Thursday in a small club again, intimate and loud, was awesome as always! They fucking kill it live every time!
You can see more of my stuff on IG, at kyleshootseverything . Enjoi! 🍻
My uncle has this scratch on his rear quarter panel/side of bumper, and I’m hoping I can fix it for him. I already buffed out the smeared clear coat, the easy part. What’s left to do is fill in the gashes and touch up the finish.
What’s the best way to fix this?
It was a fantastic show! They always kill it! Here are some of my shots from their set, I hope you enjoi! 🤘🍻
If you want to see more, or from other shows, check out kyleshootseverything on IG.
I attended the Albany, NY Thrice show last night. The opening band was Held., and Josh is their drummer. They were good! Check ‘em out!
I shot the show, I’ll post photos soon.
I have one regular poster and one AP rainbow foil poster, both still in their tubes. Photos available upon request. Stock photo of the foil shown here.

108”l x 3w x 32”h : Woodform table [wood texture and stain]
I built the mold, the team cast and stained the piece.
I can’t figure out why the centers of the numbers aren’t polishing out. They look like horizontal brush marks, but it’s more like a haze/pitting, and it’s not polishing out.
I’ve tried denim wheels and cotton, both with a dark red compound. I don’t know what I’m missing. I’ve made dozens of pieces, but this little guy is kicking my ass.
What am I doing wrong?
I bought the record on Record Store Day, played only Side A once last week. I have the album, I don’t think I’ll play the live version enough to bother keeping it. If anyone is interested in buying it let me know.
I posted last week about attempting to flatten my warped copy of Horizons/West.
My method was using two pieces of concrete, heat them in the oven to ~125°F, then sandwich the record.
My first attempt failed. The record was so cupped that two flat surfaces weren’t enough.
to mitigate that, I cut little strips of felt and placed them around the perimeter of the record to overcompensate for the cupping. Test fit looked perfect.
Second attempt also failed, but for different, and permanent, reasons. 1, the one piece of concrete was too hot; and/or 2, I left it sandwiched for too long.
I now know how to do it, but at the expense of burning the record. You can see the burn marks in the photos, they look like solar flairs shooting in from the perimeter.
Public playlist of all three acts on the tour. Enjoi! 🍻

I was one of quite a few who received a really warped copy of Horizons/West. Customer service sent me a new copy thankfully, so I’m trying my hand at flattening it myself.
I work for a decorative concrete shop, so I heated up two pieces in my oven, sandwiched the record, then clamped it. I’ll check it later when I’m back home. Hopefully it works! 🤞🤓
I work for a shop, and I’d like to find a useful way to recycle the saw dust from my table saw. We used to give it to the Sealing Dept. to use to soak up excess sealer so that that wasn’t disposed of improperly, but they switched sealers and don’t need to do that anymore. I’m trying to think sustainably/creatively, but I can’t think of any solutions or ideas.
To those who ‘recycle’ it, what do you do?
Hello from NJ, America!
I’m getting ready to paint a hood and front bumper cover; my father needs new ones and he bought them from a junkyard for cheap, but they’re a different color so I’m painting them the correct color.
My main question is which grit should I sand the original clear coat with before spraying the new base coat? I’m thinking 500 or 600 should be good, is this correct?
This woodworking-adjacent, I guess you’d say.
I work for a decorative concrete company in NJ, America. I build all the weird and custom molds. It’s like variety but inside out and backwards, haha.
I recently built the mold for this cool arched fireplace going in a trade show in NYC next month.
