Re: Good luck to all those participating in the Main Sale!!!

It appears that there are still $675 tickets available, over twenty-four hours after the main sale opened. This is likely an off year for me personally (usually I skip alternate years), but I do like to keep an eye on the ticket demand and status. Hey BVB. This appears to be the year for people who...

Re: Fingernail protection?

I'm on a build crew and am on the playa for three weeks. My fingernails are worked hard, get brittle and crack. I've heard that fingernail polish really helps protect them. What is the best type for that? This has worked really well for me. https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71qHfmwvZ0L._AC_UF1000...

Re: Holding Down Shelter - Structural Engineer Needed Please

I'm not a structural engineer, but I've seen a lot of similar structures on the playa. I am wondering if there are holes for lag bolts on this structure? A quick count looks like 50 lag bolts would hold this down pretty solid. You can go as long as you wish on the bolts, but I found that 12" lags ar...
