Our plan is to do this eventually. Some friends of ours built one of these as a kit from Menard's, and it turned out 5/7
It looks like a fun project. Ive entertained the idea of T-ing into the gas line and running that underground with fire glass pebbles, but when we moved in there was a giant pile of firewood already there. :scrooge: Sorry 'bout the smoke, neighbor.
Yea, I've debated the gas line too. We took out a bunch of trees in our backyard and have enough firewood to last us a few years, plus we like the natural fire better anyway. The smell, the process, it's a fun evening activity.

We've got a tripod and cast iron dutch oven that we take camping to make chili in. It's a fun activity in the backyard, and can be keto friendly!

Snagged 10 polos for work from Costco online for a total of $37.66 shipped. :notbad: hope they fit, but if they don’t, Costco has a good enough return policy.

I've had fantastic luck with clothes from Costco...only issue is the fit can be off, but I've returned plenty that don't fit ZFG.

Yeah I hopped on the manufacturer website to check the size guide. They may be a little big on me at first, but like you said if it’s terribad I’ll get my money back no problem.

They’re stuff running that deal if anyone needs some cheap casual work clothes. It’s a 2 pack of polos for $11 and if you buy 5 or more clothing items you get $20 off your purchase.

So I actually bought a product I saw from an ad on instagram. :mindblown: I never thought I would but I'm sure the app heard me complaining about my keys the day before it showed. It's one of those key organizers. No more jingle jangle.

I wish they had more colors like black with red or blue stitching but overall it's :notbad: . Never even heard of these things before.

I keep my car key solo in my pocket and the other keys get put in the center console, or the cubby to the left of the wheel, or the glove box.

Otherwise, I walk around with either a huge ass bulge in my pocket or a bunch of jingle jangles reindeer key bell

Garage door opener? Maybe community gate opener? At that point I leave either of those two in the car because I wouldn't need them unless I am using the car.

While I'm still gonna have a bulge with this setup, it should be able to lay in my pocket flatter. Maybe I could find some sort of quick disconnect thing I could use to separate the car fob from the rest.

It's called an Orbitkey. Very expensive for what it is but :neat: nonetheless.

It's overkill but it's better than the 30year old Deere I've had for years.

My fucking apartment was like Fort Knox, every hallway, parking area, courtyard, was behind locked doors requiring a dumb fob thing. I can't tell you the number of times we accidentally locked ourselves out or had guests come over and get quarantined in a stairwell trying to visit us, before being quarantined was cool. I hated that place. Never again. Dick grabber poverty house living was even better than that damn luxury apartment.

:dat: . I need the fob to get into the garage, then into the elevator, and then finally onto my floor.
