I feel like LG is a long the same thread as Samsung, fancy looks and plastic parts. I have an LG fridge and it is not without issues

Yeah he’s going to be an example in business schools for the next century.

Hey I have one of these and it’s got a good bit of vibration. How did you cut down on that? It’s not the bearings. I think it might be the belt or motor? I replaced the belt and it didn’t help much and when I tightened the belt by lowering the motor it helped a little but it’s still bad. The only thing that works well is putting weight on the top of the machine but that’s not very safe. I’m debating adding wood to the metal frame to make it more sturdy? I have the factory frame it came with. I think you do as well but mine is the same silver color as the rest of the machine.

Really happy with Speed Queen! We wanted a traditional top load with agitator. Minimal bells and whistles. Should be easy to repair but haven’t needed to.

Reply to Anyone remember when Doc’s were still being made in England? I bought these in the mid 90’s I think. Is the quality still any good? by Unhallowedhopes

I have docs from the 90’s that are still in perfect condition. My husband bought a pair more recently (no longer made in England unless you want to pay double for them) and the soles broke in half within 3 months. My daughter’s Chelsea’s zipper just broke and they were purchased in September. It’s really unfortunate

Reply to Recommendation for a nice inexpensive pen by keepinitoldskool

Used to buy Mont Blanc cartridge when they costed next to nothing and jam them into much cheaper pens. There are instructions to that online and probably most good writing cartridge out there.

I have been looking at WERA KRAFTFORM KOMPAKT. This is twice as expensive but I would say it’s probably worth it because of the quality materials used.

Yep, bandsaws and table saws still scare the shit out of me and I've used them for years. Just when you start to feel somewhat comfortable the good old table saw decides to kickback and throw a nice piece of lumber in your face. It happens to everyone.

I love woodworking after a few glasses of cocktails. The imagination flows and you'll see creativity in your pieces. I've also been doing this for decades so safety is second nature even when you're inebriated.

Nice saw but do you actually use it every day? Running a carpentry shop out of the garage?

You can be sure about the new Craftsman stuff- pure junk. It really bugs me when once respected brands are sold just for the name and trademark.

Pepperidge Farms remembers.

Some Docs are good quality, others not.

Reply to What EDC boots do you recommend? by imzeigen

I have used a bunch of military boots and by far the most comfortable was Rocky S2V. As a civilian I have been using keen utility for comfort. Can’t go wrong with either. Don’t see rocky boots recommended here but probably because people here aren’t familiar with the brand.
