What Are You Buying Right Now? (non-OT version)

Mark_B_Good

Well, I'm just thinking about the kid having to lug that around campus and into a classroom. Perhaps I'm picky, but my engineering mind says the current sizes aren't a great solution. Just looking at the thing, I think there could be ways to make it more compact. For example, a way to spin the handle bars so they are parallel with the shaft, and not sticking out a foot to either side. A more narrow foot base and shorter base (shorter spacing between wheels). A more compact folding design that closes all that space between the handle bar shaft and the foot base.  Add in a sling to it can be easily carried over the shoulder.

Perhaps my standards are too high...

Strop kit for all these pocket knives I own.   Have honing/whetstones, Spyderco Sharpmaker, etc but wanted something different.

Picked up a browning maxus 2 for this season. I’m hoping this one lasts me a while. I kept having too many issues with my Remington v3 to trust it when hunting. I plan for this to be an all around shotgun (clays, doves, waterfowl etc..)

I'd end up setting that thing down and not being able to find it!

Robbers love Mopeds.  Easy to steal, easy to maneuver, can go many places cars can't.  I bet these Scooters start to pop up in all the robbery videos on Reddit.

It must be a lot cooler in NO than I imagine. That jacket would be appropriate up here. Sweaty!

Curious as to why you’d upgrade work from home attire. 

Couldn’t you downgrade instead?

Not right now, store is closed, but tomorrow. This is for my 2017 UPS that isn't holding charge anymore. A fully charged one of these should give me max 40 minutes to shut down equipment gracefully.

@MasterC let me know how you like it.  I’ve been having my eyes on one of them for a couple of weeks now.
