A lot of good talk about racing, crawlers and bashing. I see you got yourself a 4wd stampede. Mine is a 2wd VXL. Welcome to the world of having fun for about a half hour before you either break something or decide you wanna go faster. Either way you're spending at least $50 at the hobby shop.

Two new pairs of work shoes. I’m on my feet like 360 days a year so my shoes tend to last about 18 months.  Butcher fees on the three pigs we grew out over the past year. Chops, sausage, ribs, roasts, and scrapple are done - just waiting for the smoked hams and bacons to be finished. Total is like 190lb of meat after we sold one hog’s worth to a friend  All new dirt gear for my older son to have fun blasting in the woods  And finally a new dual pulley and belts for the alternator on my 85 RX7

My husband bought an Atomic Purple shell off Amazon for my Switch and installed it for my birthday this year  What another poster said is true, it's a more glossy plastic... Also of note, it makes the JoyCons much louder. The clicks the buttons make, but especially the rumble.Something to think about if you're interested.

I bought a 2nd hand laser printer, 20 euros for this black & white only Brother HL-2240D. Good enough for me, we print very little and our old inkjet always dried up. Only thing I don't like is no ethernet port. But you can apparently buy small dedicated print servers now, USB to Wireless. Might do that, just use the my own PC as server for now.  Also bought: New pressure switch for my compressor.  New motor for my shopvac.  Acid brushes  Dovetail cutter for the mill (cheapo chinese stuff, half suspect it will break at once)

I'm reasonably sure I bought this exact printer over a decade ago, it's been absolutely flawless and is still on the original toner cartridge.

I bought a used Brother 3170CDW color laser (well LED) wireless for I wanna say $40 a few years ago and it's been great for printing the odd thing at home, mainly shipping labels. I'd be surprised if I printed 50 pages/year. Maybe not the fastest or best on ink, but it's still on the original cartridge even though Windows has said low toner for a long time.

Rolo posted:Do they have decent support? I need some new everyday shoes and those look dope. If you have issues with your ankles or over/under-pronation, these are pretty soft and squishy and likely won't help. You'd prob want something with a stiffer sole or an insert. I always recommend looking at hiking shoes as they're still pretty comfy and light, but have stiffer insoles cuz they're built for a day of hiking with a backpack on. I would be up and down for 8.5 hours at my day job, and then go do another 5 hours at my part time in retail wearing Adidas with cloudfoam and my feet felt great all day. Actually, I just replaced my pair of Questars with cloudfoam after close to a year of use. The soles are still comfy but the stitching on mine is starting to fray.

I don’t have any diagnosed issues with support, pronation or ankles but I would bet money I’ve done damage from wearing vans and converses for the last 2 decades. I’m just trying to be smarter with how I treats my feets.

It's the quarantine, so that means I'm doing puzzles. My parents had the bottom two already (Office and Beach), and I just ordered one on eBay, the Fitness Center. I'm going to try to get the other three, City Hall and High School, and probably get the "Kids" one that's only 100+ pieces, just for completion.

I bought this who knows how long ago, and entirely forgot about it until it arrived yesterday: I got a whole chicken at the store, and gonna coat that baby with sumac, paprika, and cumin and shove it in my smoker for a few hours tomorrow.

I grew up poor and never had got to have a good RC car either. I was lucky to have a Tyco Turbo Hopper. Oh how I pined for a Tamiya. I'd have done anything for a Blackfoot or Midnight Pumpkin. Got my new shocks set up. Put a new spur gear in that Pro-Line gearbox too... [img]  [/img] It's so goddamn fast. I'm scared to drive it anywhere aside from wide open spaces. A collision with a stationary object at top speed would be a beautiful explosion of plastic and aluminum.

It helps that she liked the color, but there were really no other options at this price point. If for some reason she wanted something else it would have jumped from $800 to $2200. Asking around and it seems like all of the entry level stuff is sold out, which makes sense because I’ve seen a huge increase in people riding bikes out here since quarantine.

My guy said their backlog for bike maintenance is like 5 weeks as well... I can’t find the photo but he’s got basically a garage full of old Walmart huffys and other poo poo waiting to be tuned up because suddenly people want to ride their bikes. It’s cool and good, but god drat is there a lot of traffic on my bike path.
