My wife got a candid of me when we were setting up for pizza at the beach on Friday. I make pizza every Friday, and we live a couple of blocks from the water. I bought a stack of pizza boxes on Amazon, so in the summer, we sometimes take our pizza to the beach with a bottle of wine, and enjoy the sunset.
The other day, I was at the hospital in an elevator on my way to a doctor's appointment, and a guy said "Double denim. You don't see that too often. I dig it." fist bump
Thought you guys would appreciate that.
Okay, so I spotted some Iron Heart jeans at a Super Bowl party yesterday, and said to the guy "it's not often that I see Iron Heart in the wild. Nice jeans. Are the 888s?" He replied, "yeah 21oz 888." I'm kind of surprised that it didn't even register with him that I guessed the cut. I didn't want to sound super nerdy, so I didn't mention that I knew they were 21oz by looking at them, so I just let it be.
I made burgers for dinner last night. I don't usually buy burger buns anymore because I've yet to find any in a store that are to my liking, so I've been making my own for years. Not the best photo of my burger and oven fries, but it was delicious
A few new bangers yesterday. A rose, a little filler flower in yellow, and a speed skull! Also, I don't know about your tattoo shop, but mine is always cold! My favorite trick for being comfortable is a down vest. It allows access to the arms for tattoos, and keeps the core warm. Highly recommended!
I designed this credenza for a furniture design class. My record player will sit on the top left, the amp directly to its right, and the speakers in the bottom corners, and record storage inside the two big doors.
I modeled the entire thing in CAD so that I can generate a cut list and start knocking out all of the components in the wood shop. It’ll make assembly a whole lot easier.
My wife doesn't like lamb, so when she's out for the night and I can cook whatever I feel like eating, it's a great opportunity to have something like this.

Pork chops with a bing cherry bordelaise, roasties, and green beans. Summer is in full swing! We've been grilling a lot the past few weeks.
Holy crap @giles ! That's gorgeous!
@Mizmazzle that is absolutely stunning! I love walnut (obviously, lol), and your piece is exactly why. There's so much amazing figuring in that board, and it's simply gorgeous. I'm so glad you have something in your home that brings you so much joy.
@goosehd Thank you! Not officially graded yet, but I'm certain it'll be the highest mark possible. I'm one of 4 people out of a class of 15 that made anything worth keeping, and this media console is firmly in the "fine furniture" category, so I know I'm safe.
@Mizmazzle Thank you so much! This project awoke something inside of me, and it's quite literally changing the direction of my life. I'm applying to grad school to pursue a Masters of Fine Arts in woodworking and furniture design. I'm so stoked!
Finally got to take this home and get it set up.
@goosehd I ended up buying some acoustic foam for the speakers to sit on inside the cabinet, and it seems to do the trick. I'm not getting any additional noise through the turntable, so I think it's a pretty good solution. The sound is definitely best with the speaker doors off when listening to a record, but when I'm streaming music via bluetooth, I'm fine keeping the doors on.

@Giles Dishoom? Sign me up! We went to Dishoom last year in Edinburgh, and it was phenomenal. Also, if you don't already have a copy of their cookbook, it's wonderful.
@Giles This looks fantastic!
