  2. I don't particularly like the look of the jatoba with the walnut. So I'd do a single type
  3. Happy Birthday!
  4. I'm looking for some light duty parallel clamps. Probably about 24". Does anyone have a suggestion for something that you either particularly like or dislike? I'm looking at the bessey UK3.024 unless I can find a better and less expensive option.
  5. red oak has its uses
  6. https://www.theguardian.com/music/2023/mar/14/metallica-buy-vinyl-factory-thrash-metallers-format The kids are definitely not going to get sick of vinyl nostalgia, so this is clearly a great investment.
  7. Threaded inserts are held in place by their own threads, so if your concern is that threads in wood aren't strong, the insert doesn't add any advantage. It probably makes it worse. I've found threads in wood to hold up very well. Infinity tools sells taps specifically for wood. Not sure they are any better or different than regular taps, but they exist. https://www.infinitytools.com/wood-taps
  8. From a couple of weeks ago - breakfast for some distinguished guests who were staying with us. Out of season plums and frozen peaches are both delicious when baked.
  9. Chaim Topol, Fiddler on the Roof actor, dies aged 87 https://www.theguardian.com/film/2023/mar/09/chaim-topol-dead-fiddler-on-the-roof-actor-dies-death-aged-87 https://www.nytimes.com/2023/03/09/obituaries/topol-dead.html
  10. I did a similar project with Beethoven's Piano Sonata No. 13, II. Allegro molto e vivace. which is a lot easier as it's only 2 minutes long. And weird as I am not really much of a classical listener. But that little bit of music is one of my favorite things to hear. My takeaway was that Glenn Gould is someone I like a lot.
  11. Happy birthday!
  12. @blessingx this is similar, but 30 years earlier https://www.smithsonianmag.com/travel/old-russian-empire-color-photos-180950229/
  13. Happy Birthday!
  14. Happy birthday!
  15. How the War in Ukraine Ends An eminent historian envisions a settlement among Russia, Ukraine, and the West. https://www.newyorker.com/news/the-new-yorker-interview/how-the-war-in-ukraine-ends
  16. I like the Go-Gos with all edges. If a better rock song exists, I've not heard it.
  17. Happy Birthday!
  18. Your 2009 looks like it was more fun than mine. Also, this.
  19. Who are you going to believe?
  20. This sounds like something is oscillating. It is almost certainly not due to a ground loop, bad outlet, cable, power cord, air conditioner, etc, and it likely going to require a scope and knowledge of the circuit to diagnose.
  21. Have a great one!
  22. We occasionally have sugar maple with tap holes around here. It looks similar, except the holes are larger.
