Easier to control the final product.
Yes, you can tailor it exactly how you need it!

Next project for the truck is front brakes and a new parking brake cable! I've gotta go take a ride through the woods to find where I lost one of the attachments for the parking brake, pretty sure it came off when I ran over that tree.......

I have a dirty little hoe.

I sawed the handle off a mortar hoe so I could use it to mix floor pan mud in the bathroom.
It's about 2' long now.

I lost an hour of my morning...

I HATE having my circadian rhythms jerked around by some mandate.
Can't they just change it 1/2 hour and leave it there in the middle???
