And then this morality play, just for giggles.

 

Amazon: Here is book after book arriving bent and torn in an unprotected envelope.

 

Also Amazon: Here is one shirt in a box large enough to hold every shirt you own.

I read somewhere that there is a computer algorithm for packing that preferences stacking for their initial shipping truck over things inside the box.

Gotta love when estimated shipping is wrong. Amazon arrived yesterday. 

 

Box was wide enough for the wet pallet & tall as the baseball cap. Lotsa dead space but everything came out great. Daughter is happy, I'm happy. 

 

Worked with the pallet today. I think I'm gonna like the amount of space I get. 

Also last of the pre-painted celestial owls came today.

Hey, look what showed up in the mail! I ordered these like 3 weeks ago, back when I had a working AC and was motivated to clean up my airbrushing station. But then my AC went out and all drive to do anything left me as I was stuck in a house that won't drop below 85F.

 

Full color list - Ghost Tint: Oil Discharge, Ghost Tint: Plasma Fluid, Ghost Tint: Midnight Blue, Ghost Tint: Fresh Blood, Nebula Red, Scorching Red, Badger Fur, Gun Alloy, Chrome Silver, Sky Blue, and Troll Hide.

Made a bit of money selling off some of my mini backlog, so decided to treat myself:-

 

Another 2 sets of Guildball minis - Pirates Return and Changing Tides (annoyingly, I had to order these direct from the manufacturer, as they were out of stock at my normal place and they didn't know when (and probably if) they were getting more in),

 

A nice MDF organizer kit for my copy of Kingdom Death: Monster (you'll have to wait for it to arrive to get piccys),

 

Season 2 of Ash Vs. The Evil Dead

A couple of aquisitions...    

On friday I got hold of a pair of extensible painters handles, added some elastic cord, M8 bolts and zip-ties...   

bil_001.thumb.JPG.b95976a59811fd577d51e6c489c8159e.JPG

Yes, the car is a bit messy inside... but now at least my fishing rods and hiking staves doesn't have to rattle about in the back.

And yes,  my car actually have slots to fit internal roof rails. 

The painters handles cost me about $10, the rest I had laying about.   

 

At the bottom you can also see part of a wheel of my brand new folding bike.

(Aluminium frame, 20"  rims,  disc brakes, and a total weight of 9Kg)

 

On saturday I picked up a new pair of hiking shoes, the Alfa Lyng Perform GTX M

(Lyng = heather. gosh, now you learned another Norwegian word)

Alfa-lyng-perform-GTX_M.jpeg.593d9d0d5294d41e579998340b9f85d3.jpeg

They're made by the same company that makes the M77 Army boots, so I know they're good quality.

They're also half the weight of my M77, but still sports Vibram rubber soles. They weren't cheap, though... around $250.0

 

Today I got a package containing the adapter I needed for my Badger airbrush, a 200ml bottle of airbrush cleaner, and a roll of Artool Ultra Mask sticky foil. (Translucent and comes on backing paper so it can be cut with a vinyl cutter. Probably time to actually learn to use my Silhouette Cameo now)

 

And today I ordered a proper dashcam for my car...
