  1. Oh it's a game changer for cooking inside especially if you are going to be using cast iron regularly, cook fish on the stove top or do any indoor smoking. Most home range hoods are woefully under powered though (300 CFM or less) and the recirculating ones are total garbage. They should be at least 600 CFM and when I remodeled my kitchen I put in a 750 CFM model with 6" duct. They are also good for keeping the temp down.
  2. You need to up your range hood game. Connect it to your shop dust collection system.
  3. I can't imagine hating breakfast. I don't eat a full breakfast everyday but on the occasion where I am in the mood I find great joy and pleasure in bacon, sausage, eggs and hash browns or home-fries. Eggs Benedict is also a treat. Making and eating a nice full breakfast with my wife on the weekend is a welcome indulgence that transcends the concern for nutritional or health values. The food and the aromas from cooking breakfast create comfort and set a warm ambiance for the day. IMO sometimes a meal is more than just the sum of feeding one's body.
  4. A nice occasional treat that's not shitty is a real bagel made in NYC, outlying areas of NYC or possibly north-eastern areas of NJ. Everything else is a shitty bagel or in this case a "bagel shaped bread product". I'm all for people seeking "healthy" ingredients but stop appropriating the original delicious product and pretending it's made better.
  5. I have a Harbor Freight trickle charger that I bought about 15 years ago for $9.95. I use it all winter to keep my lawn tractor battery charged. Used it on my motorcycles before that. I'm sure the one above for around $100 is worth it though. Mine only has one red LED which tells me if it's charging...or not.
  6. I think I read something about that before. But I can't really remember.
  7. S.O.S pads will not scratch chrome but Brillo will. I've used S.O.S over the years on chrome and in one case where my wife's boot heel melted onto one of my cruiser exhausts it was the only thing that worked. Just stop rubbing with the S.O.S once all the soapy stuff is gone and you just have steel wool left.
  8. That's a 2021...2022 got a larger touchscreen and lost the oval emblem on the steering wheel. That's really impressive HP though.
  9. It was actually kind of surreal. I could anticipate what was going to unfold but still couldn't quite believe it was happening as if scripted in a sitcom. He was at a neighborhood get-together a while after and I asked him if anything was new other than setting himself on fire and he sheepishly asked "oh you saw that?".
  10. The part where he poured more gas on the fire that was already burning and when it flared up and jumped back to the gas can spout, he flailed around and poured gas on his pants. That was after he ignited the gas with a lighter by reaching down into the fire pit.
  11. I'm surprised at the number of people who don't know how to start a fire properly to begin with. I'm talking both those who can't start a fire at all and also those who can't do it without endangering themselves or others. I sat on my deck not too long ago and watched in amusement as my one neighbors lit his leg and his gas can on fire in his attempt. Young guy, maybe late 20's. Not entirely dumb in other regards but when I saw him pouring gasoline on his fire pit I called my wife outside and told her that she shouldn't miss this because it was going to be good.
  12. Well that could be said for any theft deterrent device. Again, my point is that it's pretty obvious to most, so it's kind of silly to expect they would subject it to tests? It's better than nothing or just bungee cords and not as good as something stronger.
  13. They probably just assumed that most people would understand that steel cable is stronger and more difficult to cut (with common knives or razors) than bungee cords or fabric fasteners or nothing.
  14. Nice rig! Do they make a roll-cage you can add? I think that's the same engine I have on my Cub Cadet lawn tractor. Is it fuel injected or carbureted? Anyhow I'm pleased with my 3 year old Cub...seems to be the predominant brand in my neighborhood but no Zero-turns, only tractors.
  15. Since local service seems to be one of your main concerns, maybe see what dealers in your area are convenient and have high satisfaction ratings first and then focus in on a brand/model that they carry?
