Non Flashlight orders/received

My first Ball Bearing Flipper: CH3507-G10.

Just received a nos Ever ready 1912 single edge razor, and two Arkansas stones for my straights razors, one black and one black translucent. 10”x3”x1” size. Gotta flatten and lap them now.

My speaker hoarding addiction has been kicking in more than my flashlight addiction lately. Just grabbed these leftover DCM TP160S bookshelves from ebay, possibly for garage duty…

Pete,

Those speakers look sweet for the money!

How did MTX get a hold of DCM?
Just bought out the name and remaining stock maybe?

I sold the DCM Time Windows back in the 80’s when they were considered the sheet.
People blew the heck out of the tweeters and they took forever to send replacements.
Thanks

Keith

From what I’ve found online, MiTek/MTX acquired DCM in 1999. Over the years, they shut down the original DCM manufacturing facilities and transferred production to MTX facilities. Many of the DCM models were also discontinued and replaced with MTX designs, but still sold under the DCM brand name. MiTek owns a lot of different audio brands that they’ve amassed over the years.

From what I understand, these DCM TP160S were an original DCM design, now discontinued. Someone bought the remaining stock and is now selling it on ebay.

Jump started my neighbors 6.5l diesel with a dead battery three times already and this battery pack is still displaying full.

I’ve been bit by a new addiction…

2019-2020 deer season opens tomorrow (archery) so I got a new toy for that! Gun week isn’t till December but I need to put some lead down range before hand to get used to her. Can’t make it to the range this weekend, got another full weekend of tree jobs but by next weekend my Skinner sights will be here and I’ll get them installed and get out to the woods.

For deer I’ll be shooting these 325gr hornady rounds but for fun I’ll be slinging 405’s!

What appears to be a mint Gillette Fatboy adjustable razor. Taking a break from my straights.

Ditto on the new addiction;

Very cool, Terry!

My old Samsung TV bit the dust.

Yesterday, I received my new Samsung TV.

https://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/B07CL4GLQW/

It's basically the same model, but six years newer.

When I have my laptop hooked up to it, I can see that the image quality is way better with the newer model.

Not everything is an improvement, however.

The new TV doesn't have a headphone jack, so I had to order a Digital-to-Analog Converter (DAC).

Also, the new TV's built in stand isn't as convenient as the old TV.

I haven't used the new TV very much so far, and I won't be able to until I get my DAC, so I'm sure there are other differences that I haven't noticed yet.

(I almost always watch TV with headphones.)

It's really weird not being able to watch TV because that's where I get my news.

I feel I'm out of the loop not knowing what's going on around the world.

Cool. Our 55” Samsung is 10 years old now. Still running.

Mine only lasted 4.5 years.

I should get it repaired and give it to my sister, once she has room for it.

We are at 7 years on our Samsung 55 (actually two of them)

Hm? Whaddya gonna do wittit?

N3DSXL for hacking and adding all the NEW games to it.

Twist the heck out of it, and then solve it.

For the record, I’m not a speed cuber. It takes me about a minute to solve the 3x3x3 using the beginner’s algorithms. But it’s a lot of fun, even if I know I’ll never reach competition level.
