That’s like my old blue F150. Seen in the background, long decommissioned as unfit for driving. Unless you like doors flying open as you drive down the highway. Ended up selling to the neighbor for parts after the house sold.
Just arriving today - 8 temporary lights, with cords. The more work I get done the darker it gets inside. And the house doesn’t have the three big garage doors to just open up. Todays job is to put them together and put them up.

Yesterday, found a VPI HW-16 record vacuum at a Milwaukee antique mall for $61. Unit works, but there are some issues with plexiglas coming unglued and in one case, cracked. Easy to fix with a few drops of acetone. This is the earlier model with the pickup attached to the lid. I already turned an end plug from aluminum with an O-ring, since the plex end cap is one of the things that came unglued.
Happy to pick it up for next to nothing. Would never pay $1,000 for one.
Does anyone know if the narrow suction groove normally has some velvet on it? Right now there is a layer of soft plastic (polyethylene?) on either side of the groove.

VPI HW-16.5 30cm Replacement Suction Nozzle for LP
This is a replacement suction nozzle for the VPI HW-16.5 30cm LP. With long-term use, the felt that comes into contact with the record surface will wear out. The acrylic transparent nozzle will also gradually become dirty and cloudy on the inside. Regardless of the cloudiness, the HW-16.5 has a stronger suction power than other vacuum cleaners, so it is safer to be more careful about the wear of the felt that comes into contact with the record than with other cleaners.
Wear and tear on the felt can make it difficult to remove dirt from the surface of the record and can even cause scratches on your precious record.

We'll see what the seller says. I have my home address as 2nd at PayPal, but when I visited USA and ordered stuff "locally" I had it shipped to my daughter.
This is no catastrophy as my wife who currently is in USA can pick up the packade and bring it to Sweden when she comes home.

I currently have a Whammy circuit stuffed and working that is on the way to my place. I suppose that this means that I buy yet another set of cans to use with it down in the shop.
Computer parts. Oy. Stuff is crazy expensive these days. Last one I built was maybe 10 years back? But the real humor is in the assembly: on my backup machine I have five manuals open in tabs of my browser, one yout-oob video and four other tabs with references to mobo or something-else specific. Gosh, I remember throwing things together in a matter of hours!
An F6 built by Nelson Pass himself... and a couple of chassis... and some boards...
But wait! I need to do some Costco on line shopping.... I still got an hour to go....

New set of Michelin CrossClimate2 tires for the 2013 Toyota Venza. Might be the last set I need to buy for this car, as I have dedicated Nokian's for winter driving.
I've really been wanting to get back to some form of outdoor recreation so I gifted myself a new Shimano Curado 200 M baitcaster for inshore and freshwater use. It's new home is on a Loomis 8'6" GL2 8-17 fast action rod. It should be a really nice combo
Bought a couple of nice Japanese kitchen knives.

Another Steinberg UR242 to get better results when measuring stereo equipment. I will use one UR242 for each channel.
