    Large is sold out, only XL and XXL remaining. Plenty of fatties on this board can still grab one.

    If I remember correctly, Peter Millar’s cuts run really large.

    Picked up about 1000 lbs of pine and red oak this morning. Spent the afternoon splitting/stacking and ended up with about half a face cord.

    Wife bought a new indoor Christmas tree without built in lights. Anyone have a rec? I assume the smaller expandable ones are easier to replace if a bulb goes out, but idk

    Recommendations on cordless hedge trimmers? Just bought a new house and have tons of hedges to trim. I'm planning on getting Stihl because I have other Stihl equipment and have always heard it is top notch. The batteries are interchangeable as well. I.e. I think the battery from my Stihl blower would work with the trimmer.

    I’ve decided I’m only investing in one battery system. If it’s non-dewalt it’s gonna be gas or corded.

    I've got some of the Toro battery tools (hedge trimmer, string trimmer, and blower). I don't have any complaints about any of them. The hedge trimmer is a beast, and easy to use. Not the lightest though.

    Like them a lot. Haven't noticed any difference sound wise between these and the pros but these definitely fit better and are more comfortable. Was worried about case size but it fits in my pocket with no problem. The new skin sensor works well.

    Downside is no wireless charging. I didn't use that feature with my pros so it hasn't bothered me.

    How long did they last? I'm on my 2nd pair of Airpods in the past few years and they are starting to act up again. Was thinking of getting some of the Google ones that seem to get good feedback.

    This is my second pair. First pair probably lasted 2 years and change and I’d say this pair is at about that. Sometimes they work perfectly fine. When I’m at the gym they will disconnect in one ear or both ears for no reason. The annoyance of that is enough for me to consider new headphones.

    Brand for the hedge trimmer is probably going to be the same brand that you build your cordless tool system around. I use Ryobi 18v inside and 40v tools outside. No complaints other than one of my 40v batteries took a shit after about two years.

    Yep, imo you can’t really go wrong with any platform. So just pick one and stack tools. All mine are dewalt and happy with them. Found some pretty good multiple tool deals.

    Then did this

    That’s probably close to a face cord of white oak. My back is done so splitting will happen another day.

    I looked closely at Sonos and Denon's high end equipment, and realized I just don't care that much home audio (bias, I'm not a movie guy and my wife/daughter hate me listening to loud music). So, here's a well-reviewed alternative.

    For the money:

    Vizio’s M512a-H6 soundbar delivers powerful, vibrant sound for a reasonable price, complete with Dolby Atmos and DTS:X support, an easy setup process, and plenty of adjustments for tinkering with audio settings.

    Vizio’s M512a-H6 soundbar delivers powerful, vibrant sound for a reasonable price, complete with Dolby Atmos and DTS:X support, an easy setup process, and plenty of adjustments for tinkering with audio settings. There’s no Wi-Fi support, but that’s not unusual for a soundbar in this price range.

    https://www.techhive.com/article/3197573/best-soundbars.html


    If you care even less than me, Techhive's highest rated low priced option is:

    Best budget soundbar
    [​IMG]Denon DHT-S216H

    $206.02

    While Denon’s first DTS Virtual:X soundbar lacks Wi-Fi or voice-assistant support, it doesn’t disappoint when it comes to the feature that matters most: its sound.

    Denon is known for manufacturing premium home-audio gear with price tags to match, but the Denon DHT-S216H delivers a fabulous audio experience for not a lot of money, plus it supports DTS Virtual:X to add an immersive quality to movie soundtracks. This soundbar produces very good bass response, too, but Denon also gives you the option to add any wired subwoofer you’d like if you want to kick low-frequency effects up a notch.

    Can’t speak to prescription lenses but I love there lenses. I think they have glass now and would definitely recommend those. The one thing I hate is that the regular lenses tend to scratch very easily.

    I'm planning on pulling the trigger on a Solo Stove. The Bonfire sized one plus stand is $260. The Yukon sized one plus stand is $460. Is the Yukon size worth the extra $200?

    Sorry to be needy with help (solo stove above and now this) but does anyone have a suggestion on a decent laptop? I'm hoping to get one that has a Black Friday/Cyber Monday deal going on. I don't need something overly fancy but something I can use for different situations like web browsing, drafting documents, editing pictures, storing items, etc... I know I want it to have good storage and ideally I'd be able to keep it under $500. I have an older Macbook Air but that just doesn't have much storage as the operating system seems to take up 1/3 of the storage the laptop offers.
