Where is the blind spot & how do you check it when crossing a bike lane?

I stopped sleeping on my belly 10 or 20 years ago and only objectively noticed that I can't turn my head during my spring 2022 trip. OKay.

Special delivery (signed for post) is pointless

Deliveries actually requiring a sig was supposed to be re-instated from 1/5/2022, but round here if I take more than 10ms to answer the door, the postie seems to forge an "X" on their PDA and shove it through the letterbox, rather than return the item.

OT: No Can Opener?

Som e cities have different bins for glass, metal and paper. Ours used to, but now it's all in one, and probably sorted by a contractor like in the TV programs where they show gigantic smart machinery.

Fridge leaking water

Shop organizing... (pegboard)?

The cargo net was just for hoisting Rubbermaid storage bins with the block rigging, I'll have a hook attachment for hoisting the mower. The mower would be drained and pushed over onto the shelf, there will be about 42-48 inches available from loft shelf to ceiling (~ 11 foot).

The Rising Cost of Termite Vomit.

Whatever the reason, once that stuff is un-banded and sits in the bins for a week, it twists up like hot-wheels track.

Bandsaw metrics

I've spent a lot of time lately in pawn shops looking through bins of sockets, depressing... Jeff

Where to keep the tiny Allen wrench

When I was a kid and we were into building "Forts" I remember gazing at the nail bins full of virgin 16d commons with something approaching lust. We only had benders for our use.

Lowe's inventory records a disaster

The next year we did it in-house - and having a basic understanding of what was SUPPOSED to be in the bins - and making sure we counted what was there as the right part, made for a much more accurate count. 3 days of work over the new-year counting was NOT what I had figured on.
