iirc save on sells a made in Canada/usa one too, comes in like a green tube not sure where the ginger is from tho

4ish. Need them to babyproof house, she just started crawling and reaching upbat things, etc

Aside from the typical dollarstore, grocery store, and Hallmark's, any interesting places for birthday / Christmas cards? Any "boutique" stores so to speak?

Looking to just send a few, so I don't mind paying a little bit more per card for more unique designs. As opposed to having a typical lame Hallmark template. Not interested in customizing my photo onto a card either.

Try stationery gift shops like nikaido in Steveston

Could even consider Etsy, locally front on Main st.

I've bought cards made by indie artists from Zing Paperie and Design. Also recently Front and Company on Main st.

Maybe Paper-Ya on Granville Island, I've bought a couple from there before.

So I have no clue about this, and I'm a need an explain like ime 5 help here

I bought my dad a chemical guys wash kit, and it comes with their torq foam cannon for power washers

Thanks guys

Best place to get diecast car models locally?

Looking for a very specific one. 1/18 - 1970 Dodge Dart Swinger in purple. Was my dads first car growing up and I've overheard him in the past talking about finding a diecast model but has been unsuccessful.

Best stores? Anywhere from West Van to Abbotsford

Where can I get wood dust for repairing threads in wood?

I believe Wilkinson’s Automobilia is only online: www.eautomobilia.com

Car audio places, cabinetry places, MG1's workshop, school workshops, hundreds of places............ or, take a saw or drill or rasp and make your own sawdust?

Am I reading the question wrong?

Are these treads you are trying to repair from a wood screw? If that's the case. Wooden chopstick smacked into hole and screw the fastener back in. Best quick fix for repairing worn out screw holes in wood. Those disposable chopsticks are best. Maybe drill it out a bit, pun intended.

^toothpicks too?

depends on the size of the hole needing repaired.

Japanese style chopsticks are best because of tapered/pointed ends. tap in and break off. Voila! Or some amuricans wood say, wa la!

As for actual sawdust. I probably have like 2 cups of sawdust in the pockets of my shop aprons, lol. Really need to clean them out.........one day.

You interpreted it correctly, Yes i am repairing the wood thread for Garage door spring bracket.
I plan to fill the hole with wood glue + saw dust + wood dowel
and then re-drill the hole with a pilot hole

I don't do wood work at all, so collecting saw dust is kinda difficult for me.

Do you have a drill? Just drill a bunch of holes into wood and make your own.

Yes! That's a good call!

looking to get into terrariums and bonsais, where to start?

have you considering just placing bumpers on sharp edges and keeping cabinets secured, dont need to go line every leg and corner with swimming noodles

Metro town had both a terrarium store n bonsai store, not sure if they're still alive though, been a bit since I strolled thru

I'd just go to HD and get the next size up. It's probably just a lag bolt. If you want to go extra, go to Dollarama, grab a syringe of 2 part epoxy for $1.50 and fill the hole, before putting the bolt in.

Edit. If the bolt is only 1½-2" long, you can also get the same dia. bolt but up to 3½" long, since above the garage door should have a double header + ½" drywall.

Any recommendations for a higher-end Japanese Green Tea I can get locally?

I don't know enough about it, and Tetley's doesn't seem like the right tea to give to an older Japanese person...lol.

It's a gift, looking to spend ~$75 for a reasonable amount (say, 30 cups or so).

Tsujiri Richmond/Metro?

Is it actually good? They sell small bags of 100g, but looking to buy a bit more then that

Haven't tried these personally, but the latter is on the "higher" end. The former can be found in several restaurants and Japanese retailers.
