    In The Grocery Section, Disappearing Store Brands

    Thread Starter: Bruce Wrenn

    Recently (in the last year,) I have noticed more and more "store brands" disappearing from the shelves. The stores where I regularly shop (excluding Aldi's) now only have Campbell's soup.

    Thread Starter: Steve Demuth

    Anyone here have experience or otherwise informed thoughts on the Millright CNC woodworking machines, and in particular, the Power Route Plus?

    Work in progress: shop doors

    Thread Starter: Drew Bernat

That said, the ceiling is just a shade over 8' and so the overhead garage doors take up a lot of space - specifically their tracks. Simple solution: get rid of them! I'm replacing them with carriage-style doors on...
