Maybe it's just a moon phase - not age related decrease in mental capacity.

yeah---let's go with that!

Morning all. Thanks for the coffee DL and congrats inspection.

I do not like cows milk My grandma didn't and neither does Pa. I did have a chance to try some fresh milk a couple months ago and it was pretty good. Sweeter than I thought it would be. Still had to gag it down, but it's just in my head

When I was a kid we had a jersey and goats. I thought processing changed the taste of cows milk. I loved store bought couldn't really stand the jersey or goat milk.

Have you tried goat milk? It is supposed to be easier for lactose intolerant people to digest.

Had one as a kid, they are easier to milk but that doesn't make it taste any better.

It really helps to try to open the proper end of the can.

Does anyone else miss the old style of can? You could remove both ends, then flatten them.

Good morning Cafe. Coffee is ready.

I had the final electric inspection yesterday. The certificate of compliance will be sent to me and the CEO. It's over. One more bit of pressure off my back.

What a relief this must be!

There was no need to remove the ends, just stepping on them flattened quite nicely.

Eh, kinda.
I built a can crusher(hinged 2x4's hangs on wall) with an extra block to fold the closed end.

^^ True. But I had a use for the can with both ends removed. Can't do it any more... Sigh. Maybe with a hacksaw, but not going to go that far.

Let us see your construction, please.

Let us see your construction, please.

Works great for typical 10oz cans, not so much for the 28oz(too close to wall).
Block on left folds bottom of can, then flattens further up near hinge.
Whole thing is 16" long, pretty good leverage.
