i’ve seen some videos of people instead of pouring concrete footing into the soil they use buckets filled with cement, does that mean I could use pier blocks for small pergola?

Case not working, can't find a replacement online (combustion thermometer)

Is there a way to buy just the charging case? I don't need wifi booster, hoping to pay less just for the case/charger, thermometer worked until it ran out of battery

EMS suspension or nah (1994 kzj78)

new to me kzj78, previous owner raised the suspension , but it needs new shocks as these have lost all the juice, i would prefer a stock height so looked for the original EMS shocks, found them pretty expensive (300 usd each one) so are they worth it? if not what would be a good replacement to keep it stockish? probably will just cut the springs to size

recommendation on repairing this finish?

there are some weird glares and looks like water stains on my project :(, this is 8 hours after applying 2nd coat of Rubio monocoat, i think is some glue i used with sawdust to film some holes, I used a damp towel to remove the excess glue, guess it got pushed to the fibers.

so how would you recommend i remove this finish and the glue or whatever stains these are?

this is finished like this:
Sanding: 80, 100, 120, 180 (don’t have 150 but could get it), vacuuming between each grit
water popped,
hand sanding with 180 with grain to remove the popped fibers,
then mineral oil to clean,
once dried applied Rubio with a spatula, used a white scotch pad in orbital sander, then blue towels to remove excess , then after 15 minutes used a maroon pad to sand the finish, vacuum and mineral oil to clean, second rubio application as above minus the maroon pad
