I've had one of those seams start to tear after the 3rd joint. Another skin on the same rolling machine was still good after 2 packs of papers. Go figure ...
The one I had previously lasted like half a case of papers, but then I dropped it and destroyed the frame. One of the new ones rolls so tight the damn thing looks like a toothpick once rolled...

That incident where I accidentally bought 5 rollers showed me HOW inconsistently the fabric part is made. I have a favorite of the 5...
At least you shouldn't have to buy a roller for a decade or so.

I went to buy pvc at home depot for my project on the weekend. I needed 3 10 foot 1" pipes... my car is pretty small so I had to have them precariously sticking out the window. Got home and as I was getting everything together to start and I noticed that the fittings and the pipe weren't the same size... Dammit I accidently bought 3/4" pipe. >:(

... Them or a customer. There was a bunch of 3/4" mixed with 1" ...
GRRR!! I've had the wrong sized screws and shit because "Sparky" before me was careless. Ever had the encounter with that doofus in a grocery store that puts a pack of diapers back with the cereal thinking "close enough ... nobody will notice"
... Personal gripe but it annoys me that lumber and plumbing in imperial in Canada! ...
... you are not alone.

Instead of removing his dirt pile he constructed a sluiceway to expedite runoff! Which won't work once it silts up and prevents me from shoveling the silt away from my fence. I was waiting for him to remove that dirt before I excavated my fence. Can't tell if it's deliberate or just stupid.View attachment 5317772
Can you pan it for gold at least?

Yes! Or leave meat rotting in a non cooler isle. I've switched to Longos from Fortinos recently. I'm kinda pissed at them now too. I bought what looked like four nice thick pork chops for grilling on Saturday and Lunch on Sunday. When i opened it three looked great... the fourth chop under the label and price tag was a big glob of fat and a bone. Practically no meat, certainly not enough to justify cooking it!

Mostly cloudy, 77 degrees and 68% humidity @ 0840, supposed to be pushing 100 this afternoon. Arizona needs to take it's monsoonal moisture back. Fingers crossed that any thunderstorms over the Sierra's dump a bunch of rain on any lightning strikes. It has been a slow fire season so far (knocking on wood).
Mornin.
