I like simple integer ratios also, just to keep the math simple. Usually, there is at least one dimension (often more!) dictated by the space a piece will live in, so fancy design ratios get chucked out the window, anyway. -
Not much shop time lately, but I had a few minutes today and I had to mix up some epoxy for some other stuff so I decided to stabilize/fill some of the knots in my rails. -
Funny, the text description says board and batten siding, but under Exterior Features it says the siding is vinyl. I wouldn't expect vinyl siding on a $2.5 million home. -
I just watched a video of a mechanic saying the same thing. I think our car uses the rear brakes more for the traction control so they get used without us even knowing. We do mostly city/heavily congested suburban driving too. Saw a local tire chain shop charges $525 for new pads/rotors. I'm under $500 for 3 sets of pad/rotors and a new caliper. -
Someone I saw online was comparing rears to fronts on newer vehicles. Rear pads were failing due to being thinned out. Fronts used to get swapped twice as often as rears, so the started creating failure into the rears. That said, if you ever had rotors replaced, be sure all mating surfaces got clean. If not, runout can occur that creates friction heat due to the rotor and pads being out of plane.
