Not So Pro 3

[Hundred Acre Wood]

Porting saw after saw is a monotonous job....

I'm sure it is. I was only half joking lol

Someone mentioned Eagles. Got 7 bridges road stuck in my head now.

Got educated by a 20 year old on how to bleed diesel fuel system. Was only trying to change a fuel filter. I'd be a sure hire at that work with dumb people place.
See what I can "fix" today.

You cut some nice looking lines buddy. All by hand or do you use a pad tool?

We're gonna cut a pretty good sized hickory Sunday. Looking forward to it.

Thanks. I hate taping and what I found works best for me is a high quality 2 1/2” angled brush. I prefer the Purdy XL-Glide. I can make good time edging with it, without putting paint where I don’t want it. For the rest of the wall I use a 3” flat brush. I dislike rolling and the mess it makes.

Anything bigger than a closet I want to bust out the 18-in roller to get done as fast as possible

I have used that brush. Pretty nice. Just need more practice. But really don't enjoy the painting.

Shagbark?

I've not really paid that much attention to it. The stem is in a wad of brush....but its tall with 3 leaders branching off about 2/3 of the way up. Gonna make a lot of firewood. I don't recall it looking like a shagbark though.

After you get down the muscle memory of the brush connecting with the wall just below the corner, then pushing it into the corner and pulling away, it goes very smoothly. I think a lot of the trick is also not loading the brush up with too much paint. I dip the brush then wipe the paint away from 1 side only, leaving the other side saturated - seems to leave just enough paint to cover about 12-14” of edge.

Sounds like a fun one to drop.

Good morning fellas.

Was you out buying a saw in a box the other day near Monroeville?

Pa half ton

I forgot you're an 8 lug thug.

Thanks for that clarification, I had read somewhere it was 5k. Doesn't matter as I am sure SARS have been submitted and I am on that list anyway. I make withdrawals and sometimes they ask and I make up something.

You & I, were talking about two completely different forms. SAR is different then Form 8300. Each is filed for different reasons, and for different amounts of money. Banks don't just run around filling out SAR's for the hell of it, SAR's are not filled out just because $5,000 is reached either.

If every bank in the USA did a SAR on everyone that deposited or withdrew $5,000, FinCEN would have stacks upon stacks, of forms to sort through taller then the Sears tower. They don't have the funding, man power, or time to sort through that much.

Yeah I get asked questions once & while, why I'm withdrawing this larger than normal sum of money, I give some BS reason also. I highly doubt they have ever filed on SAR.

Just in case thou, don't stop wearing the tinfoil hat, never know when they / them might be watching.

No tinfoil here, just a lack of trust on my part. There are many in .gov that are just good people doing a job, also there are people you cannot trust. Sorting them is the hard part. I am not one to not admit being wrong, happens frequently.

Personally, I'm a big fan of the tin foil.
