How does one just buy a basement???

 

Not really a purchase, but brought home my Dad’s SUP. This is the board he would ride when we would paddle on Sunday mornings. Lots of history with this board. Going to do my best to restore it….. but first, I’m taking it for a nice long paddle.

More pics? this is a beautiful 4runner

 

The washer we ordered finallyyyyyyy showed up. The matching set is complete and I have a happy wife…. lol

 

Ordered the evil manufacturing 3rd brake light/chase light, next baja design s2's and switch pros.

 

RCI engine skid with 20% off labor day sale

 

Garmin Epix (gen 2) to replace my old Fenix 5X.
I gotta get used to a slightly smaller overall face, but basically the same screen size and SO much more readable (and touch screen). That Fenix 5X has been my every-day watch for 5-1/2 years.

 

Ego snowblower, shaved the stickers (like my truck), wiped her down with some Lucas speed mist wax detailer. My first snow blower, I’m almost 40 and last year was really tough shoveling, It was time to get one. Got a lowes card with 0% interest for 18 months and $100 off. I’m happy.

 

Broke down and got a Magpul BUIS set, front and rear.

Tried to tell myself the 40 dollar Chinese
Made Amazon ones I had on my HD AR did the job and POI wasn’t changing every time I took it out because of how wobbly they were. But the fact is it was. Plus because of the crappy mechanism
I already had to brake them down and loctite the retention screw to stop them from popping up on their own while
Shooting. After Putting the Magpul rears on a couple M4 style setups with the fixed from post and seeing how solid they felt, how fast they zeroed and how well they held Zero I decided I had to do front and rear for my main squeeze.

 

Does a gift count as a purchase? My friend wouldn't let me pay her for it.
New FHF Bino chest rig for hunting. I'm new to all of this stuff but hoping to get better with my bow and do some hunting.

 

I want one of those so bad

 

Tried it on last night. It’s pretty compact so I’m hoping it works well for me.

 

Wife got her birthday present 3 weeks early. Found it on FB marketplace for less than half price.

 

Picked up a used canon 50mm F1.4 lens a week or two from the local camera store. My trio of F4.0 zoom lenes was not cutting it to get photos of the kids indoors. This has been so much better for that.

 

How are you liking the watch? What made you choose that over the fenix 7?

 

I’m liking it a lot so far. The brightness and clarity of the screen (at the cost of battery life) was the ultimate decider for me over the Fenix. Everything has more visible detail due to the higher pixel count of the OLED screen.
I would have loved to see a larger size like the Fenix 7X, but I’ve gotten used to the slightly smaller size and it is less bulky for sure. I’ve actually been wearing it to bed to get some sleep metrics out of it - no way I was going that with the bigger Fenix X.
Compared to my old 5X, this thing seems to measure so much more. I’m still playing around with a lot of it, getting it dialed where I like. Battery life really is pretty good - I run an analog face with a lot of stuff, but I have it drop to just date and digital time after a few seconds unless I do a full wrist turn or tap the screen - which saves a lot of juice. I’ve gone four full days with it only charged to 75% and it was about 20% when I plugged it back it. I usually polish it up in charge when I jump in the shower in the morning.

 

Got these new sunnies.

Cool thing is that the lenses are magnetic and interchangeable.
Seems like a good company and says they will send you a new pair free if you lose or break yours. Time will tell if that’s true or not.

 

Talaria Sting

 

Wife can never get the gas blower started, so decided to try out a dewalt battery operated blower since I have a bunch of their stuff

I had bought a 20v black and decker blower awhile back and it looked like a toy and couldn’t blow out a candle so was worried about getting the 20v dewalt over their 60v but it is actually pretty powerful!

If I had 60v batteries already I would’ve went with that one bc it looks like for wet stuff it works better, but for 90% of the stuff I need this one for it’ll do the trick!

 

Got tired of chopping by hand. 20 ton convertible Duerr with a 6.5 Briggs. Old and used but seems to work well. Couldn't pass it up for only six fiddy.

 

Been real lax on keeping old generator serviced. Luckily I was able to pick this up just now.
PS I have about 25 lp tanks. Gas cans are my stash that I used this summer

 

Meat sticks!

 

Nice I have been looking at the little 3500-4000 watt version of that one at Costco for our travel trailer to give us the option so we are not reliant on rv sites with hook up. The water tank can last us 2 days, but in Texas we need AC almost year round.

Have you looked into getting the larger LP tanks?

 

A set of Apple AirPods Pro. I held off on getting some for awhile simply because they seem to be ubiquitous, especially amongst kids who want them because Apple. LOL

With that said, I use my cell @ my job a lot more than I used to, and wanted a *good* pair of earbuds, and they fit the bill.
