We’ve used it on some cabinets but she likes pro classic high gloss enamel for baseboards.

I’ll add that the sprayer was on sale and had a deal for 3 free sprayer tips. I specifically picked sizes that should be good for both the Proclassic enamel and the Emerald. I figure those will be the two we’re most likely to be using.

A good sprayer is a handy tool. I always used the home owner version Graco sprayer. They were around $350 and I'd get about ten years out of them, clearly that's limited use. I never actually had one wear out. The first one was wreaked by an idiot painter I lent it to, the second one was stolen, and the third I gave away when I retired.
 
We are vacationing along the western side of Michigan and are visiting the Traverse City area on this leg of the trip.
We walked into the Higher Art Gallery on Front Street and walked out with Dry Heat by artist Garth Glazier.

I think it expresses the power and dynamics of the sky in a geometric form and yes this pic was taken on the sofa in our hotel room overlooking Lake Michigan.

3 metal, wall-mounted hose reels for outside. I don't know how I survived this long without them. Fuck hose hangers.

Hard.

I can totally empathize with you. I wrestle hoses all day at work and it sucked when I got home to go through the same thing. So a couple of years ago I purchased some Eley wall mounted hose reels and they were a game changer. One of the best investments I've ever made for our home gardens.

There’s a lot of wood in the house that needs to be repainted and while we (mostly my wife) is good with a brush and roller they look better sprayed.

As long as we are both working we’ve got more money than time and hiring somebody to do this work would lcost a similar amount to the gun.

Plus we want to remodel our utility room and add some under stair storage. All that requires more woodworking and painting.

I’ve been getting into woodworking as a hobby so getting a decent sprayer that doesn’t take up to much room seems like not the worst idea.

Market place is your friend for woodworking tools. Lots of quality gear available at reasonable prices. It's where I picked up my planer, jointer, drill press, and band saw. Old cast iron equipment lasts pretty much forever.
 
About three weeks ago I purchased this fun little hand held device off AliExpress. It is loaded with so many games it would last you a lifetime to play them all. So far I've tried Super Mario World, Super Mario Cart, and the BEST Castlevania game of all time.
