They have their own bit would use basically a Torx bit with a circle in the center of it. The reason we use those on my box because I believe there are grade 5? Which means you can't break them from bending them sideways not just pulling on them straight out. I like them because of the special bit nobody can just hop in there and unscrew my subs and take them out. They're strong as hell and they look good.
Spax self drilling screws ftw, i use the silver ones and have yet to break one.

It sounds pretty great! How I have it loaded it doesn't take very much gain to make my entire apartment shake, lol.

I call this "The Eviction Notice".
DCON 15 sealed on around 200 watts, should be enough to piss my neighbors off!

I love the ecoboost f150

Honestly $50 for a design is extremely high for a standard ported box.
I would get in contact with Ryan over at http://www.ram-designs.com/
He does excellent enclosure designs with very detailed instructions for a great price.

If you haven't watched Bob's Burgers before, I wholeheartedly recommend it, this show is always making me laugh!

In my experience dough freezes pretty well
Properly wrapped, plastic wrap and either heavy duty foil or heavy plastic bags, I have kept dough in the freezer for up to 3 months with no quality loss. The only thing you have to remember is to thaw the dough in the refrigerator over night and then allow sufficient time to fully rise the way you would normally let a bread rise.

PS - There's is ABSOLUTELY NO WAY my wife would let me get one but I've had this unreasonable attachment to them since I was about 10 years younger.
You and me both brother

Unfortunately with Camino's they're either over priced or rusted hunks of junk.

It should start around 1:42, he goes through the various gauges through the HU you can use. Most OEM stuff will work straight out of the box.

For diesels they pretty much run forever, but when stuff goes bad it gets REALLY expensive REALLY quickly.

I've been looking into the speed at which I lift. When I do squats I feel like if I try to move faster I just feel more tired and don't go any faster. If I move methodically it seems smooth and easier.
I'm wondering if it has anything to do with my slow twitch/ fast twitch muscle fiber make up.
It makes sense to me because when I was riding bikes, I would bike at a much lower cadence than my friends but I could stay geared up and move just as fast or faster without tiring.
Mobile glitch
I try to keep the tension with every movement I do. I don't use my body for momentum since that defeats the purpose of lifting.

Add to that the complete disregard for acoustic treatments in that car and I am not sure I can handle it. Rides amazingly stiff as well.
On the flip side, the power delivery is sweet. Surprised at how peppy it is stock with the Auto. With a manual it could be really fun and super fun with an LSA.
There are a few aftermarket headunit solutions that can link up with the MyLink and will give you tons of information, gauges, etc.

My son and I checked out the Stihls last night and I liked the 251 Woodboss better than the 250. So I went up to the chainsaws and the 251 was gone! Dude told me that a guy came in this morning and grabbed the last one. So I said fuck it, just give me the 250. So he takes it in the back, oils and fuels it up and goes to start it... 30 pulls later we decided that was not the model for me.
He ordered me a 251 Woodboss. It will be in on Wednesday.
The Husqvarnas seriously disappointed me. They are always touted as such a great saw. I have played with their older models and was extremely impressed. When I grabbed up the Huskys at Lowes I was shocked. They looked cheap, and felt even cheaper. I know that the Husky combi units like my Stihl are Honda built, and they are impressive, but the Husky saws feel like cheap Poulans. The small, less expensive "entry level" Stihl 170, 181, and 211s were even nicer to the touch. They felt more substantial, even though they were much smaller (5-10cc) than the Husky.
At my old job we used a lot of Stihl products, everything from trimmers, saws, leaf blowers, etc. Very rarely did we have an issue with them outside of the employees treating the equipment shit. Parts are pretty cheap and plentiful so repairing them isn't a huge hassle.

Try looking for Cocobolo, Macasar Ebony, Bubinga, Rosewood or Sapale. I have a ton of Sapale Pommelle laying around that I would love to use. I have been contemplating a nice 2 way passive Dipole with a small incorporated active sub.
FWIW, that is unstained mahogany. You can also stain it if you so desire.
actually ebony would be just about perfect. I think that's what my coffee table is veneered with.
What do you think? It looks ebony ish

I veneered them with curly mahogany, added black walnut on the edges, 1 coat of schelac and 16 coats of brushing lacquer. I have about 2 months of finish work into them.
Where did you pick your veneer up from?
I really like the grain pattern, I was actually looking to find some similar to what you have but with a dark coffee color.

5 hours ago, dem beats said:I almost always finish with preacher curls. Lately I have been augmenting my standing curls with overhand standing curls to work the brachilis a bit more.
For a while I was dedicating an entire day to arms, focusing on biceps.
Add some variety with your workouts, it helped me.
Here is my split
Sun: Chest, Back, abs
Mon: Arms, forearms, Shoulders
Tue:Legs, lower back, abs
Wed: Chest, Back, abs
Thur: Arms, Forearms, Shoulder
Fri, Legs, lower back, abs
Sat: Rest Day
So basically every single day biceps are being hit either directly or as apart of compound lifts.

System as it sits now. I will be adding the tube phono stage and Paradigm Prestige.

Cabinets look beautiful, what did you use to finish them? I need to do something to my MTM kit since the bare MDF is pretty unappealing to look at.

Aaron is currently on a much needed vacation, that being said the DCONs & GCONs have been put on the back burner to make other priorties like the Evil 12 happen. There still might be stock but I can't say for sure, i would email the team at support@ssaudio.com for inquiries.
