  1. Because I don’t mind adding 1% to the time of building something to make sure she’s happy with something she’s going to look at every day? I know I fucking hate when I’m looking at something I made and all I see is β€œI wish I would have made it lighter/darker/warmer”. Why would I not take the extra time to make sure someone else doesn't feel that way? I guess it’s a luxury of doing woodworking as a hobby rather than a profession. I can waste time on perfectionism instead of having to worry about profit.
  2. 3 Rubio monocoat samples on white oak and a piece of unfinished, unsanded walnut right off the planer.
  3. I can’t fathom charging someone for a build and not having them approve a physical sample of the wood/finish combo. Hell when I make something for my wife I show her a sample of the finish on an off cut from the project before I commit to anything. Also, it looks like the floating panels of the doors are birch and not oak. And I’m not 100% convinced the rest of it is oak. The splotchiness and what looks like grain reversal in some places. Maybe pine, maybe poplar. I’d love to see the end grain of the drawers. At the very least the still visible milling marks and inconsistent sanding are the wrong choice for the stain used. The rustic milling isn’t necessarily bad in and of itself if you like that look, but it needs to have a better dye/stain combo to avoid the harsh splotchiness. But more specifically, it’s not remotely close to the refined (actually planed smooth and sanded properly) look in the inspiration piece. Did you or the builder specify actually using walnut? IMO there isn’t a better looking wood than walnut with a thin oil finish (what is pictured in your sample). All that said, what you got wouldn’t look terrible in a rustic house, but it’s a far cry from the level of finish in the inspiration.

    PGA Tour 2025

    2 eagles and a birdie through 7 holes and he’s -2.
  5. Contrast that with Steven Stamkos, who can remember every detail about every goal he’s ever scored. The names of the defenders, how he got the puck, how he moved through the zone, where he shot it. Give him a date and an opponent and he can describe every detail about the goals he scored that game.
  6. Could have at least styled the swastika in the style of the logo.
  7. Allen says he did it to be closer to his daughters. He also got a raise from 1.5 million at psu to 1.9 million at Clemson. Makes him tied as the 10th highest paid assistant coach. Still making less than the 2.5 million Clemson was paying Venables as DC. That matches what Blake Baker (LSU DC) is currently making as the highest paid assistant coach. Most likely candidate for Penn state DC is probably Anthony Poindexter, current safeties coach and Co-DC. he’s interviewed for the job twice already when Brent Pry left to be HC and VTech and when Diaz left to be HC at Duke.
  8. He was the exact same player at Penn state. Could be called for a flag on almost every play, gets flagged often.
  9. I think he’s still a serviceable qb with a competent oline and a slightly better set of WRs.
  10. Pickens is the most frustrating WR in recent memory. And that’s with the long list of head cases the Steelers have had. He’s capable of such ridiculous highlight reel plays, but completely disappears so often.
  11. wtf was that? I thought we agreed everyone was passing to TEs and RBs only in the semifinals
  12. No they won’t. This is no better than just missing the national championship all those years they were the 2nd or 3rd best team in the big ten. Still the same thing. 2nd or 3rd best team in the big ten. Still a few players and a good coach short of a national championship. There’s nothing to feel good about with this playoff run. if Allar is even decent they win this game easily.
  13. 5 guys caught passes, 3 TEs and 2 RBs
  14. And a Steelers fan. It’s going to be a rough weekend of football.
  15. You guys better fucking win this thing. I can’t handle osu winning another national championship.
  16. Because the game isn’t already being recorded from 5 angles? You don’t have that shit being recorded? You can’t just sit back and enjoy the moment knowing it’s already covered from every angel you need to have it it from 50 yards away through a phone?
  17. He should. If he’s even decent tonight psu puts the game away in the first half.
  18. You didn’t watch the big ten championship game.
  19. PSU pass game is just not good. They have no WRs that can separate, at all. And Allar has an inaccurate cannon with no touch most of the time.
  20. Stadium PA has announced 2 tackles for Beau Pribula, the psu qb that transferred to Mizzou last month. Was actually the defensive no 9, backup LB Elliot Washington.
  21. Let’s wait until he wins the game before that sort of nonsense. There is still a lot of time for him to do James Franklin things and throw the game away.
  22. That’s the weak spot in psu D. Oregon hit it all night.
