I had cheap Melita drip machine and it did ok coffee, but that's about it. I thought all drips were more or less the same and kind of ruled them all out. \/ too bad I'm now poor forever because that thing looks nice as hell and my bag is dying. \/ KingColliwog has a new favorite as of 19:59 on Mar 8, 2015 |

Just ordered this 61" solid wood desk from Ikea. Planning to sand it, then stain it with a dark oil down to a coffee color. I say "ordered" because the Brooklyn Ikea was incapable of getting and keeping it in stock despite numerous assurances of stock "tomorrow". Ended up stumping for their extortionate online shipping :/

I thought the low quality of keurig coffee would have been to do with the processed coffee in the pod thing, not the process itself. I don't actually drink coffee or know anything about brewing.

There's a place near me called Windsor Plywood that would sell the wood and cut and finish it for you for like $20. I dunno if 'Murica has such places though, it's not a drive thru or big box store.

I dunno if 'Murica has such places though, it's not a drive thru or big box store. I live in America and there are loads of independent lumber mills and lumber warehouses that are willing to sell in small quantities to individuals, but most of them don't advertise much so most hobbyists don't know about them. My dad just hired a mobile mill to process two massive cherry trees he had to cut down, so I'll be swimming in as much cherry wood as I can handle for the next decade. e: Those places don't generally sell glued-together planks like that guy's desk, though. It takes an insane amount of time to do that yourself, and if you aren't a Bob Vila-tier home carpenter it's really difficult to glue that together without having any wood glue spill into the surface, which can soak into the grain and make it look really jacked up when you stain it. He's also right that Home Depot charges an unreasonably high price for that, so Ikea is a pretty good option, assuming it's whole wood. Sumac has a new favorite as of 03:49 on Mar 9, 2015 |

 A Dirt Devil steam cleaner because I like my steams clean. (Why not a Kärcher? Because you can't get a Kärcher for 39€, that's why.) e:  it's an American brand. No wonder they sold it to me at a 40€ discount. Probably made in China anyway.

big mean giraffe posted:Those look like running shoes...don't do deadlifts and squats in running shoes. Give over, I oly lift in tennis shoes and it barely makes a difference. Comfort and convenience factor outweighs the couple % extra you might be able to put up as a casual lifter. Compressible heels won't kill you. If you're having trouble hitting depth without a raised heel, work on your flexibility cause it must suck.

Perry Normal posted:Huh, interesting. I thought the low quality of keurig coffee would have been to do with the processed coffee in the pod thing, not the process itself. I don't actually drink coffee or know anything about brewing. It's both, from my understanding. Yeah, it's fairly low quality coffee in the pods (even the best ones won't be as good as getting just average whole beans and grinding them yourself,) but even with one of the reusable cups, it's not great coffee. Someone can correct me if I'm wrong, but a Keurig brews under pressure, and the pods are designed with that in mind and will let hit hit that pressure. But even the best reusable cups aren't as good at letting it keep that pressure, so you get mediocre coffee even with fresh ground good beans. That being said, that's exactly what I do, because the Keurig was a gift, and I'm the opposite of a coffee snob...I don't use the pods, because they're too expensive and a horrible waste in terms of garbage (only the foil top is recyclable, the plastic pod is not,) but I do use a reusable cup, filled with Kirkland brand coffee (pre-ground, in a big ol' can, too...top quality) I've had good coffee. There's a place near me that roasts their own beans, grinds them fresh, etc... and I don't notice any real difference, so I'm not about to spend more money and time on something I can't appreciate. I imagine how I feel about coffee is how other people feel about beer...I love good beers, could go on and on about differences in styles, types of hops and grains, etc... yet to someone like my girlfriend, it all "tastes like beer."

  I bought a 150 year old 30 gallon cast iron cauldron for cooking a large amount of food for a large amount of people. It took almost a year to find since a lot of them have had holes drilled through the bottom and turned into rusted out planters. The metal underneath the crud on this one is in really great shape.

The "No 30" is the only marking that I've found on it so far, but I'm still working on stripping off the original seasoning. The inside is easily as sooth as a Griswold, no pitting at all.
