    Who is today's Steve McQueen?

    Bringing an old conversation back, but I would disagree on Mr. McGregor. I'm a huge fan of his and love that he rides motorcycles and his hugely into the lifestyle, but he wimped out on multiple occasion on his documentaries, something Mr. McQueen never would have done. McQueen was fearless.

    Batman the Animated Series

    RIP Mr. Zimbalist. BTAS is my quintessential Batman. I love the movies, but I was watching the Animated Series regularly as a kid, and then ended up buying the DVD set. I still throw it on from time to time. Whenever I read a comic of Batman, I only hear Kevin Conroy and Mark Hamilton voices...

    Vintage Armoire / Wardrobes...

    Not a reproduction, but the owner said it was from the 30's. Got it from a shop down in Klamath Falls, OR. I haven't gone looking for marks or stamps, but I will the next time I move (in a few months).

    Vintage Armoire / Wardrobes...

    Man, I love the contours of the doors on that one, PoohBang. This is one my fiancee and I picked up about a year ago. Pretty much only houses my stuff, but she likes looking at it.

    The DIY Vintage Repair Before/After Thread

    Think there is a reason it was struggling to generate power? The start of cleaning up the motor. I forgot to take a pic of when I actually got the motor and coil cleaned. It was actually in really great shape and just needed to have all the old muck cleared out. You can see how shiny and...

    The DIY Vintage Repair Before/After Thread

    Yes, it is called a Breakfaster by the Calkins Appliance Company. I find them on eBay from time to time, usually around 30 to 45 dollars after shipping. They are neat even just to keep around to look at!

    The DIY Vintage Repair Before/After Thread

    Thanks, PoohBang! One size fits all. You plug it in and it starts getting hot. No switches or knobs! Probably another reason why it is still going, nothing really to breakdown or wear out.

    The DIY Vintage Repair Before/After Thread

    Hey, I have a bunch of old projects and such that I've done that I could add in. Here is my breakfaster that I refinished and cleaned up. I wanted to clean it up, polish it, and be able to actually cook with it if I wanted to. How it started: Started off by taking the whole thing apart. I...

    Guitars

    I appreciate the info, I'll look into that kind of a bridge as well. I have another Fender acoustic that I need to have worked on so I'll have the guy look at this hollow body when I take it in. I took a couple of pictures of my other work horses. I have a nice black US made Gibson SG...

    Guitars

    Yeah, I have to do some research, apparently Univox was made in the USA for a while then went to Japan under the Matsumoko company. I'm not sure who made the guitar, US or Japan. I have to get my hands on the guitar and see if I can find a sticker inside somewhere. I was thinking of using...

    Guitars

    I just got a new guitar. Well, its sitting at my mom's house and I have to go pick it up. Anywho, my grandfather had this sitting around, said he traded a fiddle for it back in the early 90's and its been sitting in a closet ever since. Its a Univox Pro. I can't tell the year, best guess I have...

    Best Boot Cut Jean

    +1 on getting the jeans long. Not so long that they pile up on the boot in a mound, but a fold or two at the bottom is ideal. I'll have to look at the Ariat jeans. How expensive are they?

    Best Boot Cut Jean

    Big Stars feel a little stiffer than my Lucky's, but a tad bit roomier. Not much, just a smidge. I'm wearing the same size in both, however I've tried on plenty of Lucky's where I have wanted to bump done a size in the waist. I am built weird and have to try jeans on in order to make sure they...

    Best Boot Cut Jean

    I'm hard on jeans and I tend to like the Lucky's I've had. Most have a small flare for boots, which I wear Frye boots and cowboy boots often and I think they look great. I pretty much refuse to buy most of jeans at full price and just pick through the stuff on sale which you can usually find...

    Article: Why do People Hate Hipsters

    I think way too much thought got put into analysing hipsters. There are a few out there trying to make a statement. I think most are just identity challenged individuals and emo kids that are now evolving into bright, happy, and weird rather than dark, miserable, and weird. The skinny jeans...
