Had a client ask for a 'reverse mohawk' and it went sideways

Ugh, test snips are a lifesaver... I had a client bring in a picture of "texture" once and it was just a photo of burlap. We had to have a long talk about hair versus actual fabric.

Spent $300 on a used scan tool back in 2010. Best money ever.

My old Launch scanner from 2006 still finds weird EVAP leaks.

Spent $35 on a digital scale and it's a total game changer for my cookies

Unpopular opinion: I used a hair dryer to fix my brisket stall

Call that a win? You just dried out the surface and messed with the natural cooking process. The stall happens for a reason, letting fat render and collagen break down. Rushing it with a hair dryer is a hack that gives you a worse texture, even if the bark looks okay.
