I'm building rolling bicycle racks based on an instructable I found. Making 2 to hold up to 4 bicycles

Painted it with 2 coats of exterior paint for when I need more space and leave the bicycle outside temporarily.

So far two days of work and I plan to finish up tomorrow (day 3).

Making some hanging bicycle racks

I'm doubling it up and painting with exterior semi gloss. Also, adding supports and castor wheels on the bottom.

When I have guests staying it'll need to be outside

Really informative quiz! Thanks for sharing this first @links

I just came to know about Purple DAO. It’s fascinating. You can also take the quiz, learn about Purple DAO, and earn some ETH
Recommendation for a Bread Machine

If you make bread a lot that is not high hydration, I recommend a bread machine. It gets the most consistent dough every time.

PS use a scale if you haven't already. πŸ‘

Another example of why I have trust issues with people and the US govt πŸ˜‚
Costco is gonna stop selling books in the US in the new year citing it's too labor intensive.

Gossip on Reddit was they no longer have a book buyer either; I felt in the past 5 years I have noticed a quality decline in the books offered.

Incredible insight into today's American politics with a solution forward!

I wish online retailers would bake-in shipping for their products. If you buy multiple items then you get a discount because shipping is less.

Or be similar to Etsy sellers where the cost of shipping is upfront in the itetms listing.

Thanks to the norms set by Amazon & large retailers, It's a bad UX to shop, be prepared to pay a certain amount, and then check out to then see the cost of shipping is $20 or more .

It's made me leave a lot of shopping carts incomplete. It's not the cost that's the issue, it's the bait & switch.
