Having to use 3 devices for my work is not my idea of fun. My MOTU Ultralite mk.4 is a pain to route as it does it virtually, and not crashes and creates distortion. I need something that just works for work and creation. So the MOTU will just talk to the Theater rig, and the new Tascam Series 208i USB Audio Interface will take over all else for my Pre-73Mk.3 and other goodies. My work must be at its best all the time. I have had been around TEAC/Tascam for over 40 years so, here we go. Bought the Demo from Sweetwater sound, and saved a bunch.

Doing a good job of sharpening a knife with a stone set is an art I have not mastered.... I found smaller knives were harder to do AND the curved tips of knives. Practice and watching YT vids is probably the way to proceed. My knives were sharp and I even did a Kyocera ceramic knife. I had lots of trouble doing axe and hatches. I think I'll look for a hand held stone. Long like a file - forget the name for that style.

A lot of years sharpening knives and I use a steel very often during the day. Steel use is dependent on the amount of knife work done. You want to get good sharpening knives? Practice, Practice, Practice!

Rocker/recliner, requirement were that the back could not come above my shoulders which would allow my ears exposure to the rear speakers. Also needed to be more narrow then big and fluffy. I’m a smaller framed man and I require a chair I fit in comfortably. I hope this is it.

Hey Nick. They don't get more comfortable than this. Just don't tell the wife about the other occupant.

Time to explore... the Vibe was on backorder, so we picked up a Crescent Crew instead.

Took home a known quality. The trigger is awesome for out of the box. The Canik TP-SA Mod2. Copy of the Walther P99. In a dark charcoal finish.

Putting a last personalization on my 9mm. Just ordered a lug quick disconnect for the 9mm's can. Here was my last test day: Running three rounds of subsonic FMJ through the 9mm. Running three rounds of supersonic Super Extra .22lr through M&P 15-22. Today was mainly to test the 11 pound recoil spring / Neilson-Booster device on the M&P 2.0 9mm. No problems w/ reliable cycling. Note: No hearing protection worn nor resulting hearing damage occurred during R&D day
