That sink is beautiful!
I think so! This is a better view. I’ve thought about these for 4 months and then just did it.

I have had access to a family plan discount for all of my previous car purchases, and so have never bothered with negotiating, but given the current demand, dealers this time around said they'd only honor it if I ordered a car through them to be built. And I wasn't wanting to roll the dice on how long that might take.
I scored one brand new off craigslist few years ago. Starts with one pull every time. I use 100% pure gas in all my small engine toys.
It's probably better to use 98% gas and 2% oil in two-cycle leaf blower engines.
That's what I do...
I’ve been buying the premixed 50:1 fuel lately. BTD at $20 a gallon.
I thought that ratio was low too Street but then I realized both my Stihl tools and the outboard on the fishing boat are 50:1. So yeah, 2% is right. Just never looked at it that way.
Both my Husqvarna chain saw and backpack leaf blower use the same 50:1 2-cycle mix, which I mix myself.Just, trying to understand the mixture you are talking about. A 2 cycle should have more then 2% oil, right?
pjigar, could of bought a 4 stroke which would use gas only. Teach me or correct me of the mixture on 2 or 4 stroke engines?
Just took delivery of my DJI Mavic 3 drone. I'm glad I drug my feet on the Mavic 2 Pro because the 3 has a better camera and about 50% longer battery life. I wanted to get the Fly More package plus the RC Pro controller, but they did not have the controller available for separate purchase yet, so I got the Cine package that included it for $800 more. It was raining yesterday so I took it on it's first flight in the great room. I'm going to have so much fun! BTD!
That's a cool $5k.
Includes license for Apple ProRes, which is mainly used by pros.
I've uploaded clips to Youtube. Unfortunately they over compress anything you upload so Apple ProRes is way overkill for online streaming.
But maybe in a few months, I'll be tempted as well.
Nice stuff guys!
Condo on the beach? You Rock!

I would like to get a backpack leaf blower. I wouldn't need it much but would be very handy for a few weeks out of the year. I have a powerful electric so it comes down to need or want.
I just got my Husqvarna backpack leaf blower a few days ago. Very powerful. Blew most of my yard clean in a couple of hours. Far more efficient than my tow behind lawn sweeper. I’ll probably use the backpack blower about 10 times a year. And sell the lawn sweeper. I’ll still use my battery powered blower for grass clippings, etc for post lawn mowing cleanup.
I actually blew the dough almost 2 years ago (delayed by COVID), but last night saw the Rolling Stones in a large outdoor facility along with 50,000 or so others. I'm not a huge fan but figured they are nearing the end of their touring days and I'd heard they do a great live show. I was not disappointed. It's abundantly clear how much they enjoy entertaining a crowd. Totally worth it.
