    Awesome printer! I did actually have a look at the prices in Qatar, but I still won't get enough "good" use to be able to justify it... yet. If I get a job, I'm seriously considering that Bambu one. Good that with this one you got to assemble it and just start printing immediately (y)

    Between 705 & 1200 SQ/FT From losing everything to being cash-poor and shop-rich in "only" five years!

    The description of the operation makes my stomach turn, especially when talking about grinding bone material. I hope you have a speedy recovery!

    Thanks Nick! Yep, arabic is challenging, especially with having to learn a completely new alphabet, new sounds and then trying to learn vocabulary with my memory of an ant. Luckily nearly everyone speaks english here, as 95% of the population is immigrants/expats. I think learning arabic might...

    Between 485 & 705 SQ/FT 3rd time's a charm with a 3 car workshop

    The project for holding the wife´s drawings turned out well! And I had to google the dowel maker to see it in action on youtube. Again a thing I didn´t know existed or something I might want in the future :D Also, making projects like this probably make your life a little bit easier, just maybe...

    Being away some time means I have a lot of catching up to do! First of all, nice work on the saw cart and the closet doors look great! The basement is turning out really nice, lot of professional looking work there. I´m sure your work standards are so high it´s actually good you do it yourself...

    Trying to catchup, love the zephyr and the el camino´s colour! And that Shell lubricant stand is great, didn´t realize that a stand like that would be quite handy actually. Good luck with preparing the bbq, sounds like a really nice event!

    Hah, I was reading staghorn and thinking about horns of a deer or something. Then the discussion went to temperature and it cleared up by reading more :) Nice idea of those pvc tubes. I knew they were handy for other stuff but that´s a good use for them I will probably use when I next time get...

    Finnish 2-car garage build, by-the-book

    There´s not so much here, so most things to do involve money. There are enourmous malls everywhere, luxurious hotels with fine restaurants and a beach etc. I have visited many of the malls alone and with the girls (when we arrived, we had 2 days and then my wife´s work started). Local foods...

    Well, there is one thing everyone says when you come here to Qatar: you are here to enjoy your time and save money, don´t expect to live here for the rest of your life. It might end at any time. For example, to be able to move here, you need a sponsor. Usually that is your employer if you don´t...

    Finnish 2-car garage build, by-the-book

    During the spring of 2023, we had to make a decision, will we continue in Thailand or come back to Finland. We enjoyed being there, and it was hard to decide what to do. At the end of the day, the kid's school was the deciding factor and we head back home. I must say that moving yet again was a...

    It has taken me some time to answer this one :D Well, let's just say that we tried to get things back to normal, and then life takes a turn... I'll write more in the following post. Hi, sorry for the late answer, let's just say that I haven't been around for a while. That would have been nice...

    Hi Dennis, just quickly passing by to check latest developments... :) Nice work on the new EV, and I did like how you make your videos. You seem to manage the camera/phone well when moving around and showing parts, so no annoying lost of focus or showing somewhere else while there is movement...

    Hi Drives, long time since I managed to log on, first thing to do was to check your thread. Nice work on your mom's house, I really like the hardwood floor. Good to see some empty deskspace, but I suppose it must be already filled? ;) Also your lawn looked really nice! Even if I haven't been...

    That's just so frustrating what happened with the spoiler. No matter if you get a new one, if you get compensated or not, it's just the fact of using that whole time and energy just to remove it again, that *****. I feel that especially with kids, loosing time just makes me more frustrated as...
