Costco bath sheets. Best ever. My husband is a big guy and rough on everything. With three kids, dogs, and a husband, we are on year 5 of them and they look brand new.

I got a pair of Persols. They are great. So good I got a pair of their sunglasses and a backup pair of regular specs as I can't see anything without them so always good to be prepared. They are not cheap, but they are worth it.

Timbuk2 makes great messengers and slings of all sizes and colors. Just go for an all black look and it’s timeless and functional. I love their bags but they when it comes to repair they don’t service wear and tear. But their bags are built great and all the ones I have have never ripped or broken, just the inner lining started to go bad after 15 years which was expected.

I've had these for 3 years. About 2 years in, the seams on the ends started to come undone, but 30 seconds on the sewing machine solved that problem

I had a 25 year old nalgene and the gasket failed on the lid. They sent me a new one. The lid also broke off on my nalgene I bought in college, they sent me the specific lid for that nalgene despite it being discontinued over 10 years ago. I believe they’re owned by fischer thermoscience now. They’re such an amazing brand.

The last set I bought were the Better Homes and Gardens ones from Walmart and they've lasted for years with no appreciable wear for me.

I understand. I once purchased a cnc machine for my garage at home that required 3 phase and unless I forked over $35,000 to a contractor or bought a $9,000 diesel generator it was completely useless to me since I couldn’t power it at all.

I have had a Timbuk2 classic messenger bag for daily use since high school. 23 years of daily use and only had to replace a shoulder strap once. They have all sorts of bags for a litany of uses. The classic messenger bag isn't the best for the safety of a laptop, but you can either get a neoprene sleeve, or they have bags that are made for commuting and electronics.

I have always had great luck with towels from Target. The more plush or thicker ones.

This guy does great videos on all kinds of things!

Red Land Cotton towels are the bomb- not for everyone because they are not super fluffy, but they last a long time and are very absorbent and the perfect thickness. Plus they are made in the US. We won’t ever buy any other towels

The best towels are the old cotton ones. The ones that take a layer of skin off when you use them. There'll be some measurement about g/m^2 but you want a towel to be a mild rasp.

Understood.

I’ll try to find a key online, locksmith was definitely not quoting me $12, wouldn’t be surprised if they already have a key if you can purchase it online. Thank you.

I’ll give this a try.

Apparently since I’m not the original purchaser or a someone in the service field i can’t purchase one. I figured I’d 3D print a little slide like those at a water park and just have the change come back to the front.

Benefit of Hydroflask is they are double walled so liquids stay hot/cold a long time.

I unfortunately have destroyed one. Accidently ran it over with a utility trailer. It didn't break, but it was dented too badly to use. I decided that was more my fault than theirs though.

I've had my replacement for six years and keep it off my truck bumper.

Most likely merino, but not all merino is created equally, many merino sweaters are going to be too thin and will pull because they’re just made the way that base layers are made, a thicker merino should be fine though, and a merino and regular wool combo is most durable but a bit scratchier

Today’s Corelle is a different formula then the old stuff we grew up with. It’s not AS shatterproof but it’s still an excellent choice. You can buy open stock white Vitrelle single dishes at WalMarts. After I got tired of some fancy square plates I had bought and never used I bought white Corelle and I’m very happy with it. They also having serving bowls and platters. For the price you can’t beat it.

My thermoflask seems pretty indestructible but it’s also heavy and somebody could get hurt if it gets tossed around.

Cool! How did you go about that?

You will lose your Nalgene before you can break it. Lol

We shot one with a .22 and ran it over with a car and it survived
