Finished boxing in the dumbwaiter & building the sheet pan box, installed the new trim, toe kick and had the new fridge show up. Getting the fridge in was a pita to get up the back stairs (this home is a 1970s split level design w/ three levels and the kitchen is in the middle up about 10...

That is the BIGGEST haul I’ve ever seen. Best of luck moving it all. Lots of cool boxes & peripherals in there for sure. 🙂

Ahh man that was hard. I can definitely tell you that I enjoyed the the SB clone because of its almost square-wave-esque mid-punch quality. It just sounded really neat in comparison to the others. Of the other two ... I think the Roland as the audio out was very flat in response. There doesnt...

So I started framing in the bottom cabinets, taking care to keep that front edge plumb for the counter top. That dumb waiter was a PITA lol. Despite shimming up the new subfloor, it still has a shift down along the interior wall. The home itself is just shy of 50 years old, and has settled...

My guess is some sort of privacy shield.

Wow, that is fantastic Drake. I really like how it can be swung up and out of the way. That is a very nice & pragmatic pro-desk space design. Spot any Fixies yet?

Finished the floor. I am done with floors for a while - not a fan lol. Transition into the kitchen went well. Cutting out the vent was a pita but got it done. I am sore and am very glad this stage is over.

Another productive Saturday spent on my knees. Dropped the new OSB subfloor. I ended up shimming under where the original subfloor had sunken down - came out very well and sets me up for a clean transition from dining room to kitchen when I drop the final floor tomorrow. The 500+ screws that...

Very cool. Your hair clip reminds me of Walle's cockroach buddy.

Ohh neat. What are you planning on doing with it?

You read my mind. I actually have two purchased out in the garage. Since we are often charging kid ipads in the kitchen, this will be a nice upgrade for that room - no mo' stinkin' chargers. Now a retractable solution for the chord would be even better but yanno, I am asking too much. :p More...

Wife wants a new kitchen, so I spent the past few weekends gutting out the kitchen to it’s walls & sub floor. Getting all of our pots n pans, tools n do dads n dry storage was a chore in itself. This floor was a heinous job that I wish on no other human. Such a PITA (&heavy). Breaking and...

Heck yeah! That is one great story. Thanks for sharing. Reminds me of the old adage. “That’s what good friends are for”.

Very cool to see these retro Apple store pics although I have never been to MOA which is about 1300 miles away. Love the TOTC pics though. Takes me back 🍻🥪

I wonder if storing the reassembled & fixed powerbook in a laptop case with a bunch of the silica pouches would keep moisture from being drawn into the lcd - as a preventive measure. With how brittle plastics get, this could prevent the need to ever touch the plastics if adequate moisture never...

Very cool. I totally want to do this now. :D What did the replacement 17" phillips panel run you?

TDM works really well - great option. I still mourn the loss of TDM in modern iterations of MacOS. Anyhow, I typically split the drives on my portables so had a 2nd partition (b) to restore Sorbet to within DU from leopard 10.5.8 on partition (a) on my ibookg4. Took iirc around 30 er 40 minutes...

Hi Justin, I enjoy watching your channel when I get the chance. Overalls are making a comeback. 🍻 (y)

Oh my, this is especially delicious.
