It's the other PERP, not the one you're thinking of. I was just looking at a Schmidt sandblaster eBay and noticed the PERP tag, so I looked it up. F.Y.I., this sandblaster has no engine, so I'm assuming that its dust emissions could be construed for pollution, if not for the (pricey) tag...

A bit of Friday humor... Oreo cookie pilfering in the wee morning hours has been an ongoing issue with my daughter's kiddos, and none of the four who are capable of the deed would ever fess up. My son in law happened to be charging one of his trail cameras on the counter when they both got...

No explanation needed... JB

Just received this from a client.... Does anyone know what software was used to produce this? I'm thinking Cricut or something similar. Thank you, JB

I have a sneaky hunch they also have a "RES55CUE", a "LAD11DER" and an "AMBU22LANCE". And perhaps even a "CHI15EF's" car. JB

Besides being an avid gardener, my grandmother was a wonderfully good cook. As a new bride in 1929, just months before the infamous crash of Wall St., she and my grandfather settled down on a dairy farm in Orleans, MI. Sometime during her early married life, she acquired a set of Guardian...

Downright amazing. Enjoy, JB https://www.architectureinmusic.com/pages/gallery?fbclid=IwAR0VNqff5KOueFzeqxTNcnW33-wVkouBHZZ-D0W87HOZSJT8NdbHuwWEQSE

I'm blessed to have spent one of November's finest days helping my grandsons make connections I never knew as a boy. We drove past my childhood home, the elementary school I attended, and some of my favorite haunts as a young lad. The abundance of laughter and silly boyish humor helped me...

I walked in to Pizza Hut and didn't see my pizza sitting on the rack. And from all appearances it wasn't going to be exiting the oven anytime soon. So...I patiently wait fifteen or so minutes. I thought it felt unusually heavy carrying it out to the car. By my count, there were nearly 70...

Around 8:41 pm EST (Hillsdale, MI) , I saw approximately 50 of the Starlink satellites fly over. One of the coolest things I've ever seen in the night sky. Perhaps your Internet connection was riding on them. https://www.starlink.com/technology JB

Seriously, this is currently on the front page of the local newspaper web site www.hillsdale(dot)net. I removed the photo, but posted it further below. You've been warned. JB

So, I was at that restaurant featuring the founder's ubiquitous red haired daughter. I had intended on getting a cup of their awesome (my opinion) chili, but they were running a special BOGO for $1 on their spicy chicken sandwiches, so I opted for that instead. The young dude in front of me in...

I've worked with CNC as a toolmaker since the mid 80s, and there's no way it could duplicate something like this. 16" River stone, reverse etched - approx. 3/32" to 1/8" depth. Sign vinyl stencil. Approx. 20 minutes blast time. I'm assuming roughly 90% of the stone's original surface was...

Thirty miles west of me, a new entity went into the building of a defunct grocery store chain. Instead of curiosity, the owners have been met with an onslaught of criticism by what "Food Lab" really means. As you can imagine, it conjures up the typical ideas of Franken-food, since we live such...

Or is it a hole saw? I'm fairly certain they also make a right-handed version, but don't quote me on that. JB

At first glance, I thought FedEx had delivered a double set of large pizzas. But wowzers, was I ever surprised. I'm sure they spent a shiny dime (or two) sending all those out. JB

I'm curious as to how the surface of ink receptive vinyl differs from vinyl that isn't ink receptive. Is it a microscopically "rougher" surface? Is it coated? Or does it have to do with the polymer matrices (having a more open structure)? Inquiring minds want to know. JB

Since everything known to our generation is either being re-defined, re-named or re-imagined, what hilarity might ensue from the things with which we've been familiar? If this is any indication of what eventually gets fed into a massive database, then we're in for a real treat. JB

Eons before the days of CNC, there was art nearly everywhere you looked. Oh how I long for days gone by. I believe the seller stated that it was from the early 1900s. But back then, the water heater used to be a kitchen appliance...so it had to look nice. Can you imagine working in the...
