I have a pretty nice picture frame that I wanted to use, but the photos come in weird sizes. I can't seem to find any online photo printing service that offers all three sizes that I'm looking for. I'm looking for 4x4, 6x4 and 4x6. Anyone have any ideas on what I can do?

I think I'm looking for boots. I work in a warehouse, not really a warehouse but sometimes we have to move tons of heavy poo poo around; I'm expected to be in dress shoes, but they loving suck when moving fridges around. Any suggestions to some boots that do not look like "rear end kicker 3000s"?

I'm looking for a smallish messenger bag, not a backpack but maybe something similar? I want something I can throw over my shoulder and carry it around as an EDC (everyday carry). I don't carry much and want to purchase one to stop annoying my girlfriend (I always ask her to carry my keys). I looked at Osprey, Timbuk2, Chrome and Hersechel and didn't find anything I liked. I saw some things that I liked, but some things just turned me off, like having a dedicated U-Lock compartment. Here are some things that I carry... Wallet, 24oz water bottle, keys, novel, pen, Moleskin notebook, phone, knife, a light jacket, beanie and other smallish things. Any suggestions as to brands I should look at?

Just purchased some work gloves. here. Wondering if anyone had some alternatives. I don't do much heavy lifting or anything like that, but I do move around a bunch of crap. I really like these gloves, but I've purchased these for years at this point, so wondering if there was something new out there. These gloves are grippy, durable, breathable and light. Looking for something similar?

Uh strange request... Where can I buy a gold bar? I was watching Cody's Lab on YouTube and he was messing around with a gold bar and I figured that it would be pretty cool if I had a tiny one I could look at. Are there any sites I should be looking at to buy a small one?

I really like this bag here. I'm currently using a Timbuk2 messenger bag and it's a little to big for the stuff that I want to carry. Most of the small stuff get front / side loaded so the middle sort of collapses. Any suggestions before I pull the trigger on this one?

baquerd posted:Why do you need a mattress cover? Just curious, only one I ever tried was like stain-proof and it just trapped heat and made things uncomfortable so I haven't used one since. We wanted one during the summmer cause our room is so hot. Didn't really want to sweat on it. We just decided to get some cooler covers and blankets. It's worked pretty well so far.

I'm in need of a computer chair. I've been sitting on a crappy Ikea chair for the past 4 years and I'm sick of it. I'm basically looking for something that will last a long time and be super comfortable. I'm not looking for anything super pricey, but I don't know what is considered a good price for a chair. I sat on this for a while in the store, but I didn't know about the longevity of the chair, so I didn't pick it up. I think $200 is the maximum I'm willing to spend, unless someone can convince me otherwise.

lowcrabdiet posted:Anyway, I switched to this 5 pack of Glass Meal Prep Containers. I don't really trust the lids to be microwave safe, but I use a damp paper towel on top to catch any splatter. The brand name ones (I think by Glasslock) have misleading titles like "6-piece set" for the same price, but they count the lids as separate pieces. Thanks for the suggestion. I picked those up today. I'm weird that I don't like my food touching each other, but I'm sure I'll eventually get over it. Also, this might not be the right place, but I'm wondering about power bricks. More specifically, the thingy that the wire goes into to charge phones and stuff like that. I have a few bricks laying around the house and I'm a bit confused as to which one charges my electronics "faster". For the brick I assume I should be looking at the total output, 2A, 1.67A and 1.25A; but I assume that this is also determined by my device's input. So a 2A output from my brick wouldn't matter if my device can only accept 1.67A? Assuming that my brick can do 2A and my device can take 2A, then my unit would charge at 2A?

Geoj posted:You're probably going to want a camping stove. Depending on what kind of scenario you're planning on riding out will determine the type of fuel. Propane is the easiest to use but propane cylinders are bulky and don't last very long. White gas is slightly more difficult (you have to prime the burner - they vaporize the fuel by passing it through a metal tube that gets exposed to flame) but is more economical with fuel by volume. In this category there are also "universal" fuel stoves that will run on pretty much any flammable light petroleum distillate - gasoline, kerosene, jet fuel, etc - denatured alcohol or practically any flammable fluid light enough to flow through the stove's internals. OSU_Matthew posted:I do a bunch of backpacking, and honestly the easiest and probably most shelf stable fuel would be esbit tablets. They're little solid fuel tablets you can use with a small folding esbit stove, and they cost six bucks a dozen last time I bought them on Amazon. A small one liter pot to boil water with, like the olicamp pot with the heat exchanger would be twenty bucks, and serve you great if you ever wanted to take it camping or something. A regular kitchen pot would be super inefficient and may not balance very well on the tiny stove. Thanks for the suggestion. Yeah, I'm looking to pretty much build some sort of bug out bag / emergency kit. There was an earthquake where I live and I decided that I need some sort of kit. I have roughly 6 gallons of water in individual jugs stored in a plastic bin, it isn't much but I live in the city and it's the best I can do so far.

Can someone suggest to me some sleeping headphones? My wife’s snoring is pretty intense and I’m apparently a very light sleeper. I’ve had those foam ear plugs in and I can still hear the snoring. A white noise machine wouldn’t work well as I’m fairly confident she’ll be able to drown it out. I want it to be wireless too. I’ve seen some on Amazon, but I was wondering if anyone had other suggestions before I blindly make a purchase.

Sportman posted:https://www.amazon.com/Cabeau-Evolu...rds=neck+pillow I was looking at this one too. Can you wear headphones while this is on? I have some big ones that I wanted to bring... Lawen posted:After spending 20+ hours on planes in the last week, I'm wary of big neck pillows now. I grabbed a standard foam pillow at an airport gift shop and never managed to get comfortable 'cause coach seats, even bulkhead or Economy+ seats, don't recline enough to fit a regular neck pillow between your neck and the seat without pushing your head forward. My wife travels a lot for work and had one of these and it was so much better than mine, both because of the chin support and the smaller thickness/circumference in the back. I'll definitely be buying one before my next long trip. Thanks I'll probably pick this one out for the wife, as I know she'll try to steal mine if she doesn't have her own.

Any suggestions for a good card mount that isn't magnetic (typically needs a plate and interferes with my wireless charging) or a suction cup? I drive a 08' GTI with an iPhone 10. I keep seeing the pro-mount being suggested, but that looks like a pain to install and it's expensive. I want something that isn't super bulky and the sheer amount of products available is overwhelming.
