Harbor Freight color match light and some compound for my E9 project. I am really impressed with the light but I am chasing swirls and sanding marks I wouldn't have seen with out it.

I threw out my old Nike compression sleeves after the elastic started to get tired last fall. Considering Nike is dead to me I picked up some UA sleeves this time. I love these things for fall golf because it makes it easy to add/remove a little warmth on the course. Went with gray for versatility.

Interesting on the color light. I'll be honest, I get a slight turn in my stomach as soon as I see Harbor Freight anything though. As a detailer, I always used an inspection style LED flashlight. It always kept me looking inside the circle only rather than trying to focus on larger areas. I'd be curious to see one in action.

Same here, I am not a huge HF fan but I needed the light for this and I didnt want to order something better and wait. Its basically the same light temp as natural sunlight.

I'm sorry to hear that man. I can relate. I had circumstances that arose that prevented me from attending my graduation. Let's just say I had some legal issues. Still graduated, still got the diploma, just didn't get to cross the graduation line and take part of the ceremony. Shunned by both sides of the family and everyone returned everything they had got for me for graduation. It was close to a year before anyone from my family spoke to me again. My own fault and I realize that, but it still sucked. Not the same as your situation, but I can relate.

A new big watch crystal press because I was having problems pressing a crystal in my watch. The press wasn't the issue but at least I have a cool new press.

I know better than to try and work on my watch collection. Frustration with the small pieces would lead me to swinging a hammer at it in short order.

I enjoy it a lot until I don't enjoy it at all. Then I have to walk away for a bit and try again. Haha. I like the finished products but sometimes the process angers me.
