I miss the office I worked at where I got a corner office (private!!!) and free lunches.

I do not miss the office where I worked in an open plan near the floor kitchenette and could hear people making coffee and chatting all day, or my coworkers on calls at their desks, or the keyboard clacking…

They only need one speech bubble in the logo, it’s cheugy to have more.

Thanks, I’m leaning towards diamond plates for now.

I’m curious about your gouge setup, I’ve got some for wood carving that I hone with compound but I’m sure they could use a real sharpening at some point.

Otherwise, my needs are sharpening bench chisels and planes.

Carving is what got me into wood working.

But yeah, it’s different going from honing blades with a compound to needing to sharpen them.

I don’t mind the process of sharing, but I’ve never really been exposed to it and I don’t know much about it.

It seems impossible to me that you can apply uniform and even wear to a stone, unless your blade is longer than the stone itself or divisible by its width.

Mathematically speaking, the wear is distributed as a convolutional process and will apply a bell-curve shaped wear pattern over time. There’s nothing to do about that except accept it and flatten out the stone.

That’s just the chaff separating from the wheat

It’s just a borderline misleading and useless user engagement metric.

I’ll take a look at those blogs. I read The Essential Woodworker from Lost Art, so I have a good degree of trust in their stuff

Thanks, this is really helpful advice

I definitely want to copy this project with my wife next year!

We’ve got these gold finches that are fun to watch, it would be cool to see them some more.

Plus this just looks so fun. We did a lot of trimming and pruning of trees last year and have tons of decent sticks for the siding.

So it’s going to be a red day today…

Why would you bother making a comment just to not say your password? All I see is stars.

Last time I visited LA it seemed like high beams were the default

I enjoy it too

I bought myself a scuttle and some nice shave bowls, I’ve got a brush I like and an adjustable razor that I start with open and close for my final passes. It’s a nice way to start the morning for sure.

Switching to double edge safety razors changed shaving for me.

My beard hairs are so thick even a 3 blade cartridge clogs and slips. I’ve had multiple barbers comment on how tough my beard hair is.

For a better shave: 1) switch from canned shave creams to a higher quality cream or a shave soap with brush. 2. Switch to a DE razor and buy a sample pack until you find a blade you really like.

Cartridges are faster still, but I always get rash or burn from them. A good DE blade I might nick myself but an after a little styptic and it’s not noticeable.

I’ve never tried a straight edge, it sounds cool but I’ve been told to expect to cut yourself when learning and I’m happy enough with my setup.

With the number of misaligned/undirected led lights I get blinded by, I’d be okay if you needed a phd to change them.

I learned one of my best cooking lessons from Hell’s Kitchen: taste taste taste!

As long as your food is safe to taste (i.e. not raw poultry or something), taste it, at every stage of cooking. You’ll find you get better at tasting foods and predicting what things your dish needs.

I remember asking my teacher why you could see the moon during the day and my teacher told me you couldn’t.

This too left me very confused, because I had seen the moon that very morning from the school yard.
