  • "Saying it holds 10 grams of beans is really not accurate. Coffee can weigh differently based on how the beans were roasted. If you weighed 5 scoops each one would have a different weight. It is a really nice-looking object but really serves no greater purpose other than a spoon. The best way to get good coffee is to weigh your beans for a consistent brew. My scale doesn't care how the beans get on it. Seems to me that someone had the means to make something and didn't ask if they should. "

  • "The material is EPVC (expanded PVC). Often it is used as a wood replacement in trim on the exterior of homes. It is used in the sign industry a lot. Often it is referred to by a brand name like Sintra or Komatex"

  • "They appear to be screwed together with plugs hiding the screws. Bonding HDPE with plywood is tough. 3M makes an adhesive but not much works and it is more expensive than screws. I like that their design utilizes most of the sheet of HDPE with little waste. I don't think I'd break them down much but it sure would help when moving. "

  • "For one we usually have waste aluminum that is small and hard to use. We used to make brass knuckle bottle openers out of 1/2" thick aluminum for fun and nest them into what would just get recycled. When you buy plate aluminum in 4x8 or larger sheets you try the best you can to use it all. If it is scrap then the cost is only what the recycler would give you which is 50 cents a pound. Much nicer than a plastic soap dish that can't get recycled."

  • "If the mailbox is within wifi range just put in a Blink camera in the back. You can then look inside to see if you have mail. I like the drone idea though. Way cool to have your mail fly to you and then back to dock on the post and charge."

  • "Hilti makes amazing products. They are light weight, durable, properly supported by the company. They offer great dust collection as well. They are not cheap though. But I was just at a store yesterday and they are offering for 1000 that you can pick 5 of their tools. Just their cordless hammerdrill and vacuum is 800 by itself. I can't find the deal on line but just saw the flier at the store close to my work. If interested call them and ask. I am buying a set for work. "
