@jeepTj98, that's the one but mine also has the accordion-style bean holder at the top - once you've ground the beans you can push on the top to blow air through the burs so that nothing gets stuck.

Thanks I appreciate it .. it’s a good one for sure! Should I get the mignon that is supposed to be more for the bigger grind?

@Vectrex how's Austria at the moment? Has spring begun? We're suffering a late season cold snap here in Toronto, so no one is very happy.

Weather is all over the place right now, from 8 to 20 degrees. Today it's raining and colder. I don't like the warmth, so I'm fine with that hehe. The summers get unbearable. Last summer was pure torture. People don't have ACs here, it's not so common in Europe. Other than that it's kinda bad, prices are high in general because of inflation, high market concentration and higher energy costs. Also no living space anymore that anybody can afford. I regulary visit germany cause my gf is from there and i'm always shocked how low the supermarket prices are there in comparison.
Oh and also our social system is collapsing more and more cause politics don't want to raise the age of retirement but at the same time we lack workers (especially in social professions) and not enough children being born to keep the balance in the future.

Also there's not enough doctors here. They all go to Germany or other countries if they succeeded in their Training. This has become a big problem, in the area where I live I can't even go to the doctors anymore, I have to visit the capital city.

Could some things be better? In any case. And yet it's still a paradise here compared to many other countries

Yes things could always be better, and you're right. Compared to other countries it's probably a paradise.

Saw this 2018 schott on eBay.

What is up with the colour? Is it because of the sun? Something else?

I need to restock my under-jacket t-shirts. I like slim fitting, with very short sleeves, a pocket, <$50 each, and a mix of white and off-white.

I’ve bought 3Sixteen in the past and they’ve been decent. I might also try Bronson’s USN Submarine shirt.

Anything else I should consider?

It could be the sun or it could be just the natural way that the leather is aging.. I like it, has character.

I really like gustin t shirts. They are slim fitting short sleeve and many with pockets.. kinda expensive but with lots of choices too. Heavy or thin and made very well. Quality in my opinion is top notch..

I'm getting more interested in leather police jackets (without any emblem or stitching etc. Obviously for the civilian market). I've seen some really cool models like the chicago police jacket but it's impossible to get something like that as European. Do you guys have some models/designs that you find cool.in particular? I would appreciate some photos (could even be "in action" on police officers).

I read an interview where he said he does. The jacket from the This Corrosion video was destroyed by the water.
