My trusty Estwing rock hammer handle split clean in two after 15 years of service during a mapping trip near Moab.

I had to wrap the head with a ton of duct tape and a bandana just to finish the day's work, so what's a good, tough replacement that can handle a lot of desert sun without getting brittle?

You pretended to plan a heist?

Warning: my 3 gallon sauerkraut crock went from 'quietly bubbling' to 'active volcano' in about 36 hours flat.

Just realized my neighbor's quiet electric mower wasn't about being lazy, it was about the bees.

Yeah, I had a wasp nest under my deck last summer, @haydengreen. I sprayed that foaming stuff at night and the fumes definitely made them leave for good. Never saw them come back after that.

Actually, large solar farms need that many to power whole neighborhoods.

My primary light flooded at 90 feet on a harbor inspection yesterday.

Flooding at 90 feet sounds rough, but is it really a big deal? Lights flood all the time... it's just a wet light. Maybe just check the o-ring groove for any sand or grit next time. A little spit on the seal before you close it up usually does the trick for me.
