    Low, slip or lace.

    I agree, the last time I went to a boot store, the owner ended up talking to me FOREVER and I still have the scars from that encounter :D 

    No help on the brand for that.  Any real shoe store should have some selection for you, might trya redwing store to start.  You can get safety toes in every style and they should have a selection for you.  

    Other to have plenty of dead animal shoe choices in your state.

    Two questions.

    1.Any recommendations on nice leather boots?

    2. Any recommendations on nice looking steel/composite toe boots. Looking for something without a huge heel or rugged sole, preferably.

    Lace up , slip on, low, high?  

    Find an actual boot store and go thru them all on.  The fit varies brand to brand quite a bit.  Expect to pay in the 115-300 range depending on what you get.

    Creality CR-10 V3 with auto bed leveler.

    Big fella.  I've got a modded ender 5 plus here at work and a Prusa mk3s at home.  The probe does make the first layer offset easier for sure.

    Let's say someone needed locks for residential and they had to be better than pick resistant and better than basic drill/impact resistant. 

     

    If they have a hammer drill I have bigger issues. 

     

    Asking for a friend.  Tee hee.  

     

    My research has me thinking

    ASSA > MEDICO > Primus

    Pick issues means no keys so an electronic unit.  Got reinforcement plates on the jamb/hinges/locks?  If not, Armor Concepts makes a decent kit.  Unless you've really pissed someone off, don't think they're drilling a front door lock, more kick the door in or break a window around back.  

    I've got electronic locks, but they're a key backup, don't trust them without one.

    Got an interesting call from a dispensary near Spokane Washington the other day. They found my resume on indeed. They are expanding their locations and are looking for a project manger to oversee the expansion. Permanent position. The topic of compensation came up quickly, and I was told 45k with full benefits. With the cost of living there, and taxes, far too low. I asked if there was any wiggle room, and asked about 60k. I was literally laughed at and told 'I don't even make that much." With zero desire (on their end) to discuss remote management, that offer ended.

    Nice thing about Spokane is whats directly to the East.  Idaho and mountains!  

    Now last time I was there I saw the police rolling through town in an MRAP.  You've got to wonder about some of the crime then...

    Not sure if I asked about this but tips on dishwashers? The W loves to put soiled dishes in. I've seen some with a good disposer, seems legit.

     

    Don't know what you mean by soiled, bit isn't that their purpose?  Dirty dishes go in, clean dishes go out, within reason.

    Car #3 is down now too.  Fuck me. . . . .  Only have two more left running.  Hope my driveshaft is done tomorrow.

    My family has a saying...  If your going to run junk, you've got to run a lot of it.  

     

     

     

    Maybe its because we're cheap...
