Yes, I agree.
You only get to see this really "sexy" stuff when "he" posts to or starts a thread.

Re: thing. 1 and thing .2

N is for nodular, Y for yellow iron. Or

Y is the one to which the wife said yes, N meant No.

Take your pick.

Re: thing. 1 and thing .2

I always find that selling parts, even cheap small parts helps keep the wife happy. And be vocal about it. "oh man, hate selling parts, gotta find boxes". "Oh man, gotta drop parts off at UPS today". Let her know you're making money!

...then when parts come, even when they're 10 TIMES more money than you made selling old used stuff......downplay. "oh I almost forgot I ordered that". ...and NEVER show excitiment. ...because only expensive parts get you excited.
