Kenny Rogers was such a bad ass in the late 70s/early 80s.

This summer's gonna chuff like a ---Bad words, bad words, whatcha gonna do? Whatcha gonna do when saint censors you?---.... ---smurf---...

This is a Midway coin door that I had that Neph powder coated for me. I just put on a Bally/Midway plate. This is going on my Ms. Pac. I just got the repro bezel I ordered from Phoenix Arcade as well. Chuffed, I say!

The slogan for powder coat should be, "you'll never paint again!"

I know that after the last three months I wont be painting for a long ---smurfing--- time.

But on a chuffier note, this is what I've been doing....

Some simple chuff. My wife and I named our daughter Harlynne after Harley Quinn in the DC Universe. So I picked up a cool hard hat sticker from Red Bubble and now I can carry my little girl with me through out my work day.

Quite chuffed to be done with the dust.

Ceiling tiles and furring strips ripped down, water damage around window fixed, lumpy misshapen archway ripped out and redone, 80's in-wall air conditioner removed, paneling removed from "accent wall", ceiling light added, sconces added (both on dimmers), drywall smoothed out, new outlets/covers.

I'm chomping at the bit to replace the interior doors and get the floors redone, but have to wait until the main structural beam in the basement is replaced.
Actually I should have waited to do the drywall, but if it cracks when the house is jacked up to install the beam, then it will just be a few small spots to fix and the rest will already be done. The contractor I have lined up is falling behind on his other jobs and nobody else is available.

Gonna take this Saturday off.

(...and then Sunday start reorganizing the basement for the beam repair)

I'm chuffed that the nti chuff thread is only like 3 pages and this one is in the double digits.

That turned out great. Something about your picture reminds me of the Standing Hampton album cover.

Feeling maximum chuff right now.

Here's a tease of the next project update

I replaced the thermostat in my beer fridge tonight. $17 later and my sodas are no longer exploding.

This is more like the Fall of Chuff but Ash vs The Evil Dead is set to premiere on Oct 31st. Now that should make anyone super chuffed.

New project. Nintendo restore. I'm only cleaning it out today. I may give the monitor a bath tomorrow depending on the weather.

Man that is a crusty monitor. Does it still work?

DeLuSioNal29 · « **Reply #498 on:** July 12, 2015, 08:17:54 pm »

No idea. I didn't even attempt to turn it on. Cleaned up pretty good though. :-)

I'm ordering a cap kit tonight. We shall see.

HaRuMaN · « **Reply #499 on:** July 12, 2015, 09:56:23 pm »

Got this kit built over the weekend... Works great!

Phoenixed? Or is that a custom "all in one board" that eliminates that problem?

It's a custom board that you attach to a suicided CPS2 board via the chip sockets.

I'm chuffed to get a deal on an elongated Toto Drake toilet with G-Max flushing.

Had enough amazon credit to get the basic seat without any money coming out of my bank account.

Only fixture left to buy for the bathroom is the tub and tub drain (Toto 1525).

You didn't get the soft close seat? Great toilets. Replaced both of my old units with them last year.

I got the soft close seat. I called it the basic one because it doesn't wash your butt.

I'm debating on placing an outlet between the toilet and vanity for the sake of possibly adding a washlet in the future.

Well the ass-washing seat with the wireless remote costs over 4x what I paid for the toilet it fits on, so no.
They make an ass-washing seat that costs half that much, but the controls are attached to the side like a little diving board.

I don't want the mounted controls because that's how they are on my ijoy massage chair and it bugs me.
The cheaper version has a wired remote that's easier to use while laying back in the chair.
An insurance company had a bunch of them set up at a motorcycle rally. I said "I'm buying one of these when I get home"...and I did.

I'd rather had the cheaper cloth model with the wired remote, but this is the one I came across for a good price.
I bought it "NIB" from a local shady electronics reseller for $275 IIRC. It had paperwork in the box that led me to believe it was a Costco return.
The top layer of the pleather is also pealing the frick off, but it still gives a pretty nice neck and back massage.

EDIT: For anyone interested, this is the massage chair I have: http://www.amazon.com/HT-Massage-Chair-iJoy-2580-Espresso/dp/B0029PGLGG
It sucks as a regular chair, but does give good massages. I bought the foot/calf massaging ottoman and was disappointed in it, so resold it.

Holy crap. That toilet probably costs more than my car.

I buy Delta toilets because I like how tall they sit. If I got an ass washing toilet, I'd probably have orgasms every time I went poop.

I paid $183 for the toilet. Could have got it for $170 on Friday if I hadn't been caught slackin.
I was planning on paying around $250 for it.

The soft close seat is $40.

The seat in the video goes for around $750.

It might sound silly, but I definitely prefer a toilet that sits higher.

If you turned me loose on one of those toilets with the ass washer, I think the ass washer would need an ass washer washer by the time I was done with it.
