Ducks are really popular on Cruise Ships. There are lots of people who cruise who buy label the ducks from where they are from and bring a bunch of ducks on cruise ships and hide them throughout the ship for people to find, and they look for the other ducks people hide. I haven't been on a cruise ship in a while so it was before this trend started happening, but I know people who do this and are obsessed with this when they cruise.

I cruised for the first time in November and found probably 2 myself, and as a group we found 4 or 5. Always rehid them for someone else to find.
Do you have any books you wouldn't stamp because the Value of the book is too high and it would kill the value?
I don't have any major collectors books, only a handful even break $100 in value. That said, I've been debating buying a copy of the Casino Royale novel that I based my CPC set/order off. That's a bit pricier and would likely be the only exception.. a $1k book likely should be protected a bit more.
I had no idea rubber ducks was such a thing - lol.

Are handmade, real wood chess boards a big deal? Like something a good woodworker could make some money at?

I’m not sure what the market is for anything chess related. I know since that show premiered, there’s been an uptick in interest. I doubt it will ever been the same as Rounders was for poker.

I upped my power washer game. This is so much nicer than the old $99 pos with the permanently attached hose. Now I can easily swap out accessories with quick connects. Looking forward to trying out the foam cannon on my truck and the wife's car. Uberflex hose should be delivered tomorrow.
Brrr no more. We were using fireplaces to heat house during the recent cold snap. 20 years was a pretty good lifespan.

One of the most unexciting exciting things you can buy. Enjoy the renewed warmth!
It is difficult to say, I have 1 beautiful board, hand made locally by a craftsman, just the best, paid very little for it in my opinion Had it for years, 20 plus years, and it’s the only one I have and the only one I need.
Congrats guys, nice deck and lots of back yard for the doggos. 
So there is a B&B available for the next Foray?

I got tired of running out of compressed air.
Endless compressed air for $25. A small miracle.

Tons of light!!! Love it

Quite well. My first cleaning was on/in my 21 year old Trane gas furnace. It blew out all the dust as well as a compressed air can plus the brush tip was more helpful with cleaning the motor. It has about three speeds, as well. Even the LED light proved useful. I’m keeping it.
And since one can be much more liberal with its use, I probably cleaned longer and better than with a disposable can. $25 fixed until it stops working - which could be/should be a decade or so. It’s guilt-free (green & cost) cleaning.

I might have to get one of these to dust off all of my LEGO without going through can after can of the compressed stuff!
While I have only 1 chess board and I have had it for many years, I should have considered that a website might exist called chessboardandsetsforum.com, and on that website, might be a small motivated group of people that collect, trade and buy the newest and latest chess, and classic chess items and each member may have many, many chess sets, (that some may never use, and they have a burning trigger inside, like a disease where they need many many sets and boards - and they may also collect a certain type of chess set that a specific makers mold marking on it)
If this website exists with such a group of collectors, collaborators and DIY members, someone who makes hand crafted chess boards might have an active market to sell too. Heck, they might even have a group buy of these items and maybe, just maybe, with very specialized offerings, they may have Not A Group Buy Group Buy and prices and demand for items can soar out of control within that Chess community.
Just a thought…
The problems with my wife's RAV4 kept on piling up. We put money into replacing the AC Condenser months ago. Replaced the brakes which is standard. Now the Shocks & Struts needed replacing and she had a coolant leak and few other things that would of run us into the thousands. So rather that funnel more money into a car that has a lot of miles it was time to get my wife a new SUV. I was really into the Ford Bronco and suggested it to my wife and she was onboard with a Bronco Sport after driving by a Ford Dealership last week and seeing this on the lot. We went to check it out and she loved the color of this Ford Bronco Outerbanks and the way it drove so we got this the past weekend.
