The grinds shown are at its factory setting. I cannot find any documentation that gives the measurements of the grinds it just says: "Simple and precise adjustment of the coarseness of the grind"

The top knob of Tre Spade adjust the size of the grinds.

It looks like it can be rebuilt, too.

Good evening.... you guys have been busy today....

Well got two of the three "pre-op" requirements done today... the bloodwork and chest X-ray. The cardiologist appointment still won't occur until 2 days AFTER the surgeon's pre-op appointment.... I'm on a 'cancellation wait list' to try and get in sooner...

I am still scheduled for Feb 12th, but they cancelled the last scheduled surgery date just 5 days before.... Right now the Covid / hospitalization numbers are about 5 times higher than the previous time, so I'm not holding my breath that it will happen as scheduled.

I was going to to go to a saw mill about an hour north of here to get some wider rough sawn wood for my daughter's blanket chest project, but by the time I got back from driving around the 'big city' for the tests, I was done..... they are open tomorrow morning, so I'll be heading there first thing.

Tools, ahhh, glorious tools.... an addiction for sure! I have almost replaced all of my power tools with the Rigid line up of 18v. I also have a few of the corded tools and the jobsite table saw. So far, very happy with them. I still have a dewalt corded 3/8" drill and a 1/2" hammer drill.... they are at least 25 years old and still going. And a Makita 1/2" hammer drill that's at least 30 years old.

I have killed 4 Makita 10" miter saws.... I would get at least 5-6 years of daily professional use out of them. Good saws, nothing fancy, simple miter saw. I hope the Rigid 12" compound / sliding saw holds up as well.

Everyone have a great evening!

Ahh, but there is something satisfying about breaking, crushing and pulverizing hard coffee beans early in the morning.:confused3:

I was just reading that because of oxygen, ground coffee looses its flavor two weeks after opening and coffee beans loose their flavor after 9 months. Freeze dried instant coffee last for years.

It's very dry today with a North wind whipping outside. Whipper is having a problem with static electricity.

Nice Camouflage :)

Up a bit too early for a Saturday...
33 right now, according to Weather Underground. The forecast is a bit confusing...forecast is 1-3 inches of rain and snow, but the winter weather warning calls out much more accumulation (mostly at higher elevations). I do hope we get a good 6-8 inches, even if it's sloppy wet. Snow is what really replenishes the aquifer.

I'll probably post again in a few hours, but doubt a dump run will be necessary this week

Poured first cup of coffee. 28° with cloudy skies this morning. Heading to 36° with partly cloudy skies. Dr appointment went well. Good for another 3 months. Grocery shopping is done for another week. Going to pick up my Aunt this morning and visit my other Aunt in Port Huron. Should be a good day for travel. Everyone will be social distancing and wearing mask.
Got my Economic Impact Payment check in the mail yesterday. Not sure why it's a check. All my refunds are direct deposited in a checking account. :confused3:
Michigan Covid cases 579,574. Deaths 14,550. Oakland county cases 66,986. Deaths 1,792. 9.3 million test have been given in state. State is 40 in number of shots given per 100,000 residents.
Have no idea what this bird is. About size of a robin.

LS, hope you get pre test and operation happens as scheduled.

RNG, now I understand why you spent all the money on solar. Electric and gas usage is back to normal for this time of year. My sinus have been acting up because humidity in house dropped below 30% while on wood stove. Now back to 50%.

Don, nice coffee grinder. I have one stuck on a shelf some place. Used it many years ago.

David, hope the Verizon antenna works out for you.

Drew, you can probably get a new iPhone for less money per month than what you are paying from Xfinity.

Roy, hope you the snow you want. Could use some here also.

Buckeye, Nice collection of tools. My collection of Bosch tools is now up to 12 if I include corded ones. Some are over 30 years old. I still have some older Dewalt tools. All corded. I did buy the Dewalt metal shear recently. It finds on my Bosch impact drill very well.

Great pictures posted of campfires and sunset. Makes me want to updated my 8 plus and X plus for better camera.

Everyone stay healthy and safe.

Good Morning All.

33 going to 44, maybe some snow this morning. Fired the woodstove back up yesterday after a couple of warm days.

When I woke up at 3am the sky was full of stars, when I woke up at 5 and went outside, a breezy thick fog.

Had an odds and ends day yesterday...and took Coco to the vet for a check and test.

The only battery powered tools I've owned are DeWalt 18V. Bought replacement batteries once, and the next time decided to buy a little adapter that snaps into the tool, and takes their newer, smaller 20V batteries. Works great. I like them so much that I bought each son a set of them with the carrying case and 20V batteries for Christmas last year when they were having sales.
