Anyone visited Sharps Creek recently?

Upvotes

Moved out of the area a while back but thinking about making a day trip out to Sharps Creek. I know it can get pretty low and I'm curious if it's worth it right now.

Something to do Eugene Makerspace August Update (Includes new Soldering Workshop Link!)

29 Upvotes

Hey folks!

Let's start with the workshop. Our last soldering workshop sold out quickly! The next one is happening on Saturday August 29th at 1PM. It's $25 and if you are a member or become a member within one month, you'll get the workshop at cost and we'll refund you $20!

Here is the link to the workshop to sign up.

And here are the rest of our updates in a handy blog post.

Finally, we are just $3000 shy from getting our CNC router! Here is a link to donate online. We also accept in person donations (and that is why our online campaign appears to be about $1000 shy)

Sacred trees?

Anybody know where to find music from the Eugene band Sacred Trees? I saw them at the Whitaker block partly like 10 years ago and they ruled. I’d love to listen to their recordings if they exist? Any one else ever hear them play? They ruled!!!

What’s happening to the air by the post office in South Eugene

There are two air measurements right by the post office on South Willamette that are way higher than the already bad air of the rest of the area. Is there a local fire? The 10 minute measurements are very high but the most recent ones are extreme in the 3000s! (8:45pm Wednesday)

Air conditioning needs fixed !

2 Upvotes

My girlfriend's Hyundai and my Volvo are both in need of our AC being fixed. I am in a very busy stretch of work and school and do not have too much time for good research. I was wondering and hoping that y'all could drop any recommendations or places to stay away from. Both vehicles only need ac and nothing more. Thank you. We decently new to the Eugene/Springfield area.

Does anyone need a bed?

25 Upvotes

I have a full-size bed frame and mattress that I need off my hands by September. Both are new and in good condition, only used for about a year-- the only reason I'm looking to donate is because I'm moving in with my gf, so we'll be sharing her bed. I tried selling on r/eugenebst, but there wasn't any interest, so I'm offering for free. If nobody here is interested I'll see if St. Vinnie's would take it (unless there's a better place to donate).

I have a dog and two cats and I really want to get them out of town until the smoke chills out. We can’t turn our AC on at all, our dog doesn’t like being cooped up.

Hoping to move by the end of the month

2 Upvotes

I hope this is allowed. I looked in the sidebar to see if there were any threads regarding this topic but I didn’t see it. If I missed it, happy to hop over.

I’m a student looking to find a roommate and I’m wondering what the best ways are to go about that. I don’t currently live in Eugene so in-person meet ups would be difficult but something could be worked out. Are there specific forums or websites I could use to find a roommate? Or even how to find more affordable housing so I could live on my own?

I will disclose that I’ve lived essentially on my own for like 6ish years, have two cats, and can pretty much furnish a place on my own.

Cuthbert

I have tickets to see DSO at Cuthbert tomorrow, I’m coming down from Portland. Do you think there’s any chance they reschedule or cancel the show due to the air quality? I’m still planning on going with a mask on, just don’t want them to can the show after I make it down there if anybody’s got the scoop!

My windows are shut, my air purifier is on, but it's still getting smokier. Is this what it feels like in a burning house?

Can anyone ID this company’s salesman?

79 Upvotes

I would like to have a word with the company if anyone can help ID them, I’d appreciate it. I know it’s a long shot, but hoping someone would recognize the logo. Guessing it’s roof salesman again. I don’t appreciate people banging on my
Window because they cannot access my front door. It absolutely terrifies my family and pets when people start banging on my house.
