I recently tested out some 54­° SM9s and TM MG4s and preferred the feel from the MG4s. Felt more consistent. Went ahead and ordered one with custom shaft and grip with no additional cost....
Had the Dyson V8 animal for about 6 years before it finally gave out. Replaced with a V15 detect which has the new style heads, more power, etc. and it has been even better. Highly recommend....
Have Thermador range and dishwasher. Both have been great. Didn’t feel the $10k fridge was worth the purchase though. Seemed really small and I can replace it 3 times with the Bosch I got instead for the same price. ...
I use a rawhide golf mat on concrete and it’s been great. No pain or anything. ...

Consider used. I bought one online for about 50% off and it came with the pro package (additional $1k) for free. Think I just got lucky on that one since it wasn’t advertised as having that upgrade. ...

I recently bought one with the Pro package that I use to hit into a net outside. Seems to be pretty accurate ball flights and distances. Flightscope app is pretty good. I haven't tried it with any of the sim software or putting yet....

I have two of the 84" MinkaAire H20s. I'd say they are okay and it seemed like they were the best non-Big arse Fan you could buy at the time. In hindsight, I should have just ponied up $1200/ea for the Big arse Fans....

Sounds like you might be able to run the drain pipe behind the trash pullout if you have 3” of space in the back. Would let you have any sink depth you want. ...

re: Fence Quote per Linear Foot?

Posted by GoldenD on 5/10/22 at 5:09 pm
I just had some fence replaced last week in Katy, TX. Multiple quotes in the same ballpark. 6'6 ft fence (4x4 treated post, 2x6 rot board, 6' pickets, 3 rail) - treated pine $28/ft or cedar $32/ft. Gates will add a marginal cost....

re: Avocado tree

Posted by GoldenD on 5/1/22 at 3:30 pm
Avocados aren’t “true to seed” meaning an avocado grown from a seed is likely to either not produce avocados or they will be terrible tasting/texture. To grow avocados you should generally buy a grafted tree from a known good producing tree....
