skullguise Posted January 29, 2015 Report Posted January 29, 2015 (edited) Crap, Iain, sick going in, sick coming back.....how was the middle? Hope all is OK soon. EDIT: Nate, my wife and I are on AAA for reasons just like that. We even use them for occasional discounts..... Edited January 29, 2015 by skullguise
n_maher Posted January 29, 2015 Report Posted January 29, 2015 Oh, I have AAA but I doubted they would get there any faster than my wife this morning. This afternoon, we'll see...
swt61 Posted January 29, 2015 Report Posted January 29, 2015 Fingers crossed for battery juices to flow.
acidbasement Posted January 29, 2015 Report Posted January 29, 2015 Crap, Iain, sick going in, sick coming back.....how was the middle? Hope all is OK soon. Blood clot is ruled out now On the whole, it was a lovely vacation, in spite of ill health and other various hassles. And it was great to meet up with some of the SoFla crew, however briefly. 6
CarlSeibert Posted January 30, 2015 Report Posted January 30, 2015 I use AAA for batteries. I love it got that. They come to me, wherever my battery dies ( which never send to be at my mechanics flute some reason) They charge about the same as the big box joints. But the big thing is that you can actually use their warranty, because you don't have to buy a replacement at some random place. (In Florida, that means I only have to pay for every other battery, since no battery lasts for the whole warranty period.) The other advantage is that they week test your battery, clean up our replace cables and connectors and the like, whether or not you need a new battery, and usually for no charge beyond membership. So, if I don't have my jumper cables on me, I'd probably call then for a jump.
n_maher Posted January 30, 2015 Report Posted January 30, 2015 All went well, thankfully. I put the battery on the trickle charger last night just to be safe and the light was green this morning. 1
en480c4 Posted February 1, 2015 Report Posted February 1, 2015 The light fixture we ordered for our dining room finally arrived. When Lauren was out doing a newborn shoot today, I got it installed. It's pretty fly... 16 mason jars. 9
Voltron Posted February 1, 2015 Report Posted February 1, 2015 That's a fun fixture, Ian, and it fits perfectly on that cross-beam!
swt61 Posted February 1, 2015 Report Posted February 1, 2015 Fly indeed! As are those beams and that table! 1
en480c4 Posted February 2, 2015 Report Posted February 2, 2015 Thanks guys. Steve, when we pulled down the ceiling in the dining room, we found the beautiful hand-hewn beams in the living room didn't extend all the way to the back of the house. It was built in 1850, and the last 6 feet or so had half-round beams with the bark still on them... Not exactly the look we were going for. So when we were getting ready to re-frame the drywall ceiling, a coworker offered three 24' 8x6 beams from an 1800 era cape he owns. He needed to open up a wall and reframed the second floor. While it killed me to cut them to length, we were able to get enough to add those beams just below the existing framing and fill between. And the table was built from my father's old rough-sawn staging planks. He put it together after we mentioned wanting a harvest table in the new dining room. It's pretty cool to have that history in the table, and it fits the space perfectly. 2
CarlSeibert Posted February 2, 2015 Report Posted February 2, 2015 Seriously cool, Ian. I spotted a lost phone on the road while bicycling. It always makes me feel good to return such a thing to its owner. But this one probably won't be going home. I
n_maher Posted February 2, 2015 Report Posted February 2, 2015 Response 1 - That'll buff out. Response 2 - I think you should see what Gazelle will give you for it. 2
crappyjones123 Posted February 2, 2015 Report Posted February 2, 2015 Might qualify for their third tier of conditions of 'broken.'
skullguise Posted February 3, 2015 Report Posted February 3, 2015 That was just left in someone's back pocket, it's the iPhone "bend" issue.....still good......
Augsburger Posted February 3, 2015 Report Posted February 3, 2015 (edited) Will it still play iTunes? Edited February 3, 2015 by Augsburger
mikeymad Posted February 3, 2015 Report Posted February 3, 2015 at 3am - finished painting all the cabinets - doors - drawers in my kitchen with new hardware.I didn't have hinges for one.... just trying for simple and clean... 3
agile_one Posted February 3, 2015 Report Posted February 3, 2015 Looks sparkly, simple, and clean to me, Mikey. Nice work. Did you get overtime after 4 PM? 1
Voltron Posted February 3, 2015 Report Posted February 3, 2015 Aren't you supposed to put a pull on the false drawer front below the sink? Just curious because the missing pull catches the eye.
nikongod Posted February 3, 2015 Report Posted February 3, 2015 I always pull the handle under the sink by mistake.
