I then purchased a pair of nice cooling mattress covers, and new set of Bamboo Sheets. Gonna be sleeping like a hibernating Bear this Winter!

OK... I know someone asked me about my new mattress purchase. Especially being my first entirely all foam setup coming from a inner spring traditional setup.
I am happy to report that after the initial couple of weeks, my wife and I are thoroughly enjoying this bed! She got used to it even quicker than I. But she's only 125lbs. I'm 225. It has definitely relieved some shoulder and hip discomfort I was having. It sleeps cool. It doesn't have that quick sand feeling like some memory foam beds do, but it is definitely plush.
Next up I will be ordering adjustable bases with remote control and massage.
Ahhhhhhh....

I finally own an impact (and some bits for it)!!!

M_Six · 01-15-2023, 09:09 PM

First time I used an impact driver to drive in a screw, I was stunned at how quickly and easily it sunk a 4" screw through a sheet of plywood and into a 4x4. Think hot knife through butter.

Right? I'd been wanting one for a while and always thought they were $300-400+. Had one of our guys help me with some door stuff on site on Friday, and used his impact a few times and I knew it was time. Plus the week before my "drill" failed to drill through 1" particleboard ikea desk at one go (had to go from both sides to drill the hole).

Checked online, $100 for the impact and two batteries, another $40 for the bits, plus ~15 mins to the nearest home depot later:

M_Six · 01-15-2023, 10:09 PM

I got mine on sale in a 2-tool kit with a 2-speed drill and the impact drill. Plus a charger and battery. I was amazed how inexpensive some of the Ryobi multi-tool kits were.

got both of these (discontinued) bnib for $80
gonna use these for some sort DIY movie shelf bracket

Bluebelles driver seat cover had arrived today from Vancouver, now I take both new covers to an upholsterer and let install them properly

TXSTYLE · 01-16-2023, 06:30 PM

New Suit. I try to get a couple of new ones every year or so and rotate out my older ones to charity. Nothing like a nice suit and sharp pair of shoes.

Serf27 · 01-16-2023, 08:18 PM

My Dewalt Hex drive impact is going on 5 years with heavy use and no issues. Highly recommend getting a drill chuck/hex attachment for it.

M3AN_F8IGHTY · 01-20-2023, 03:01 AM

i refuse to pay dealer mark up so ended up waiting 7 months for this

I need some DeWalt in my life.

Love the organization!

Where did you get the power tool hanger?

Right here. They're even on sale now. About $10 less than I paid. You get two of the wall units and 6 hangers. I believe there are four of the long ones and two loop-hooks. I may grab another set at this price. Get the 6-hook version. The 4-hook version is crappy. The 6-hook version is cheaper now anyway.

MoeTE87 · 01-20-2023, 10:23 AM

Awesome! Thank you!

M_Six · 01-20-2023, 10:32 AM

No prob. I have a bunch along this wall as well for my larger tools. We painted some 1x4's black and used them as a backing. Easier to get the 1x4's to grab a couple of the wall studs and then mount the tool hangers to the 1x4's.

MoeTE87 · 01-20-2023, 11:00 AM

Looks great! Looking to do something similar in my garage. I built a nice big shed a few years ago, so I plan on keeping a lot of the tools in there and keeping the "must haves" in the garage.

Fell in love with this guitar after seeing a guy on YouTube play it. I was hoping it'd sound at least decent without an amp, but no luck, I played it for 10 seconds and sent it back. Too bad, beautiful guitar and a great price too.

Damn, I was eyeing the same one. Good thing I saw this.

You intend to replace it? Maybe a Godin?

Serf27 · 01-20-2023, 11:46 AM

Ordered a new mini fridge for the small camping trailer I’ve been restoring for the last 8 months.

I'm going to try Tim's when it becomes available.

But I'm sure it won't work either, cat-gut guitars need a box.
