There's talk of a beater E36 arriving at my house at some point for abuse on track days. Could be fun.

Cakefool posted:I just dropped £600 at Travis Perkins because the other yards were dicking me around, that should be nearly everything I need for monster garage shelves, workbench and garden fence. That should put the garage in order and make working in there possible, then I can build a gate and the yard is completely closed off. What then? Toylander I think. I need some plywood sheets for my deadlifting platform, gonna put a powercage in the garage and get buff as gently caress. Need some tool storage too, where should I be looking? Tool boxes etc??

October chat: Just organising a pizza party at mine. Also just ordered a power rack and some weights for the garage. The weights may be to counteract the effects of pizza...

NitroSpazzz posted:Garage gym is great to have. Been stuck with a hotel gym the last two weeks and I'm going nuts, if I do another trip out here I might just sign up for Golds or something. Hotel gyms rarely have any actual weights worth a drat. Though the last place I stayed at had a bunch of cable machines that I bodged with various other bits of gym to give myself a workout that wasn't too bad.

Sorry to hear Rhyno. some texas redneck posted:...there are hundreds, if not thousands, of cameras in each store. Security is very aware of people hanging out, but they really don't give a poo poo until you cause a disturbance, or you appear intoxicated (or you decide to gently caress in one of the fake apartments). I've hung out in there for hours, both before and after working there, and the most that's happened is I've been approached and asked if I needed any assistance. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4mynyEx8uiQ

Arduino nerds, I was bought one a while back but have yet to look into what I can use it for. Could I be a complete dork and stick it between an audio system and something like a NES controller to select stuff onscreen instead of using the typically terrible remote/unit controls?

some texas redneck posted:In North America, they're sold as a premium high end brand. In Europe, I think they're seen as a pretty normal brand? Maybe? I used to sell them here in the UK and Bosch are certainly perceived to be premium but from selling their poo poo they have essentially a 'cheap' line with plastic internals and the actual premium line which is pretty much spot on in terms of quality. some texas redneck posted:Jesus gently caress, I just opened up Facebook.

Shame on you for not knowing what it was straight away, they're pretty distinct, the vast majority of the marque has that booty shape.

blk posted:How many AIers are cyclists? Maybe specify road/mtb/uni. You don't need to share if you're into trikes. Used to ride a lot of mountainbike when I lived in Yorkshire, took a lot of trips to Scotland to ride there, also Peak district. Built trails outside of Leeds in a place called Stainburn which featured one hell of a lot of rock obstacles and was graded double black. Moved from Yorkshire and lost virtually all decent riding outside of a multiple hour drive so am now mostly road but it's all just commuting and the occasional 'fun' ride in the city. Bought some bits to fix up my now 10yr old Orange 5 and will hopefully spank that sometime soon at a reasonably local trail, lovely brakes and all.

Bought a lifting cage and a bunch of weights last week. Company said it'd get delivered today so I get in contact asking when they're thinking of delivering it. "Oh it hasn't been put through to our warehouse for packaging" So no weights for me this weekend. On the bright side I'm going drift karting Sunday... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qdR61y42ulU

bolind posted:What kind of weight lifting gear did you get, and how much did it set you back, if you don't mind me asking? Bodymax CF475 heavy cage which is good for 363kg/800lbs and a 7ft barbell/rubber weight set totalling 185kg/407lb. Total was something upwards of £700 but I got the weights cheaper as I ordered one set they didn't have in stock so they offered me coin off one they did have. I figure I have the room and I loving hate going to the gym because other people just gently caress me off so install in the garage and smash out some reps with my housemate whenever we want with no waiting while some prick hangs around for 45 minutes doing very little. Gonna build a deadlift/bench platform for it.

I realllllllllllllly like 480s, they're just on the right side of terrible. Touch of lowering, some nice wheels and they look great. Rare you see anything other than standard ones and even standard ones are a once every few months thing it seems. Also 4 seater.

Went drift karting yesterday with a bunch of dickheads from our little car club. Many MANY spins, 360s, crashes, several broken steering assemblies and multiple popped tyres happened. There were 20 something of us split into 4 groups, each group had 4 sessions each and we were there for about 5 hours spending time going sideways. Karts are just normal karts but the right rear tyre had plastic piping over it to lessen grip which actually worked really well... Top way to spend a Sunday afternoon. Sadly the best part of the track is up the other end, a series of lovely linking turns where you could spend half the lap drifting from corner to corner but there's nowhere to spectate or get video from https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v4c7gI8fOEQ If any UK heads are interested it was here: http://www.kartingworcester.co.uk/drift-karts/

I'll keep an eye out for a Falcon in that case if you want one. Not sure if they're specific to Aus but if they're not then I'll take a look next time I go where they sell Hot wheels.

I suppose if you have nowhere to go and all your roads are complete gridlock then an auto makes sense. I'm just really loving happy that neither of those things apply to me and where I live.

Depends on how large a large is and how fatty fat fat you are. My graduating from a medium to a large has coincided with my belt size going up and this is despite a pretty decent amount of exercise. The two things mayyyyyyyyy be related.

kastein posted:at people with lovely metabolisms, I'm 29 and can still eat like a pig. Been within 10lbs of the same weight since I was 15-16. Oh my jeans size has gone up 2" in a year where I've deliberately ate anything I wanted to with no restrictions. If I were the same weight as when I was 16 I'd be a skeleton so gently caress that. Definitely a looooooong way from being fat at the moment anyway so we're all good and I've just taken delivery of a power cage and 400lb of weights so by summer I'll no doubt be a bit heavier but a whole load stronger. Just need to knock together a deadlift platform now.
