Reloop 7000s, another super OEM clone. I'll take a look again and check the height.

You're right. I don't really care about record lifetime.

As gentle as I can be. I'm not a gorilla!

😆

Took the plunge and bought a turntable. Nice thing about having a four channel mixer on my pioneer controller thing is that I can just hook it up and use it all together.

I have a slight problem though. When I try and back-cue (is that the right word? Finding the first beat of the phrase by running the record backwards) the needle jumps out of its groove, into the 'previous' groove. That's not normal right? I've set the tracking force according to all the instructions for the cartridge (Ortofon Concorde DJ), disabled anti-skate and made sure the turntable is on a solid, flat surface but none of that helped. Anything else I should try?

I smoothed it all out and pushed it into the corners with an 18" trowel and spiky roller. A long batton would have been more effective, I can see that.

It's a two-part SLC I've used (arditex na) so I was married to the manufacturer's ratio of powder:latex (1 bag to 1 bottle). It came out pretty viscous and I imagine a thin skim coat is unlikely to run into the low spots unless I have a way of forcing it in there. Perhaps I could try upping the latex in the mix? The data sheet does suggest you can do that for smaller areas.

Poured five bags of self leveller on my living room floor yesterday. Initial results look good this morning: smooth, at least, but there's areas where it definitely isn't flat. Or particularly level. Is that normal? Should I try and grind any higher spots down? Or pour another thin top layer and hope that fixes it? Or leave it because I'm only going to make it worse?

Ponnek is nice if anyone is still wondering what to get me...

Have they been put on the register?

Well this has become an extremely deep rabbit-hole. Thanks a lot?!

It’s just more shit infrastructure. The country is littered with it.

Anyone had the pleasure of navigating the redesigned junction in Dulwich village? 😱

Idles?

That's pretty funny 😆

And the 3d map is fun to play with

That would explain the half a million comments in their profile 😆

Ah, okay. Thanks Oliver

So he did! Also looked awesome

There was someone 'on here' who layed reclaimed gym floor in their living room. Looks like it was about 4 years ago

I'm trying to understand how badly this could go wrong. It's t&g like any kind of wood floor, right? I'm laying it on a screed lined slab that currently has knackered laminate, so there shouldn't be much prep required. I suppose you'd glue the boards together as you lay them and just whack them real hard from one side to get them to fit together?

Anyway, that person's username was ilmariko. Anyone have details I could use to get hold of them?

That's traumatic just to read. Must have been agonising.

That's confusing. The article talks about the 'richest' people, then goes on to say they are the top earners. Which is it?

I think the use of sentences with unexpected subjects / construction is a fashionable learning technique. Dunno what research there is to support it.

Have you seen the new 'max' features like 'explain my answer', 'role play' and 'video call'?

Neat, but is it £20/month neat 🤔

I guess now you can solve Fermat's last theorem over breakfast before arranging some aphex twin for brass band on the commute to work. Then tell your friends about it in arabic.

Hah, same colours, you have good taste 😆

Agree with everything there. I tried bending the trem arm but found it surprisingly tough. Any tips?

I picked up one of the 40th anniversary squire JMs. The neck, finish etc is nice but it badly needs a setup (which I haven't yet managed to sort).

And the trem arm is loosey goosey too.

Not sure I would rush to recommend it.

You can create a .gitignore file and add entries to it that tell git to exclude those folders from being tracked in your repo.

There ought to be a good guide on the first page of Google results for 'gitignore'.
