Lift Stand or Tilt Head?
I bought the Kitchen Aid KP26M1XES 6 Qt. Professional 600 Series Bowl-Lift Stand Mixer, but haven't purchased any attachments yet.
Some of the reviews for the meat grinder were less than favorable, as it is made of plastic and several people had them split.
Same mixer. More than 50% off on Black Friday.
The attachment is partly aluminum and partly stainless. The only plastic is the shaft bushing. Works better than expected. Does as good a job, if not better than, the Porkert manual one.

Have things really gotten that bad in the USA?
Well, it's close, here in California, at least.
I assume it's not that bad up in the Great Frozen Wastes of Syrup Land where Cal hails from
OK, dig deeper into those memories......
Don't crush that dwarf, hand me the pliers.......I've got right here in this car, for your trans-Atlantic driving pleasure, this fully hallicrafted Sea-Master short-wave radio........Can I get Duluth on it?......Duluth, bucko! You can get Tierra Del Fuego!
Sorry for the brief detour to 1969....now returning to our regular time zone.....

I still listen to Firesign Theater... How can you be in two places at once.. is probably my favourite!
Antelope Freeway, 1/4 Mile...
harman Kardon Onyx mini.... i used to have one and gave it to my brother. Now i only have a sony xb20..... but i miss the Onyx. i has great midrange for a portable bluetooth player of this price range (even in absolute). couldn't resist ordering one again... for computer speaker use. Too bad they are phased out!
I finally bought a 2.5 amp power supply and a 2.5" external hdd enclosure for my raspberry pi.
I've been busy lately but I've managed to find some time this week to setup a rasberry pi as a wireless access point using this tutorial:
Setting up a Raspberry Pi 3 as an Access Point - learn.sparkfun.com
I desoldered the factory SMD-sized antenna and I soldered a RP-SMA male plug onto the main board.
No need to say what it will be used for. NAS and access point for sharing wikipedia to ipads/tablets.
I also bought a bottle of wine for NYE celebrations. Le Chat Noir M Pierre Pinot Noir.

Having ordered the wrong type first time around, I finally received a proper 3.5" touchscreen for my Raspberry Pi model 3 B+. My project, if I can figure it out, will be a multichannel music player with a miniature "quad scope" display in the spirit of the old Pioneer, Sansui etc. quad receivers. Lots of reading ahead for this Linux noob, which will hopefully also be a springboard for weaning off Windows in time for their dropping support for 7 in 2020. We'll see...
Lovely wine!
I still vividly recall how hazy I felt leaving a wine tasting at the Black Cat vineyard in Germany, c1995.
The Eizewine is something else

Put them all together + with a rasberry pi and an antenna sticking out the top and you've got yourself a whole bunch of post-apocalyptic entertainment right there doggo!
It doesn't hurt to have a few spare parts either, hence why I got 2 or 3 of each part.
