real<\/em> one. There’s my “get into college” scrap-together, but nobody really cares what clubs I was the captain of last year.<\/p>\nSo I’ll be constructing one Real Soon Now, and probably post it here also. The site also doubles as my portfolio (which I also need to set up, at least a formal comprehensive gallery type) so it’s warranted.<\/p>\n
Anyways, it’s the last day before classes begin. In a mad dash to get in the last possible bit of work on TB before Hell, I’ll be visiting more hardware stores. “Hardware” stores, I should specify, as it seems the majority of them are devoid of a good fastener selection. ACE Hardware is where I got most of my stuff in Atlanta, and there also seems to be locations close by, so they’re on the list. Let’s see if the Boston locations are any good.<\/p>\n
When I need quite literally one<\/em> screw, I don’t want to wait 2 days for McMaster to ship me 100. It’s nice for building a hardware cache, but I need one<\/em> screw like right frackin’ now<\/em>.<\/p>\n[06:00] aarontagg: im amazed theres none at mit
\n[06:00] aarontagg: screws that is
\n[06:01] thebluehamster01: i think there’s plenty screws
\n[06:01] thebluehamster01: but again
\n[06:01] thebluehamster01: I DON’T GET ANY<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
Update<\/strong>: T.A.G Ace Hardware in Porter Square wins an internets. They had a whole section of the store devoted to fasteners (as it should be) and I stocked up on every type of screw that TB needs.\u00c2\u00a0 I know what the only place I’m going back to is.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Today’s class registration day!
