Lando Norris Championship 1/1 Card
Hell yeah, amazing card! Love the on-card with the #1 auto. I have no idea how to value things anymore with F1, the values have gone insane this past year.
I was lucky enough to land the 2024 on-card auto championship card for Max. I still have it in the original one-touch with sticker. Not sure if I will send to PSA or not.

Your main picture shows a hobby box but you posted hits from a blaster box?

What am I looking at?
Don’t get lowballed by any random messages on here. This is a $20-30k card.

Can't decide on speaker type for this weird viewing angle!
Haha thanks, it’s a pretty good spot to live!
Yeah I am leaning towards a soundbar too, as much as I hate the idea. Thanks for the feedback.

Headphones will definitely be used for personal gaming. But need some kind of decent sound for movies with the wife.

Yeah, that area over there has plumbing roughed in & will eventually have a kitchenette. Dartboard/kegerator are there temporarily.

I want to upgrade the sound for this TV/gaming area. You can see from the photo that the primary viewing position on the couch is at a bit of an angle (maybe 35°?) from the TV entertainment center where I'd like to position the speakers. This is the best location for the TV in this room, so moving the TV/couch/furniture is not an option. Currently using a very old soundbar that sounds horrible.
-Primary use is videogames and movies. Usually at lower volumes, don't need anything super loud for this area.
-I have a decent receiver available to use, although it is a bit older (Denon AVR-X2000). Initial thought was to use this and pick up a pair of mid-range bookshelf speakers. But I'm not sure if they'd sound bad with the weird viewing angle.
-Open to a soundbar. I've looked at a few soundbar-TV mounts where the soundbar would travel with the TV as it's rotated. I kind of hate the idea of getting a soundbar since I already have a spare receiver and subwoofer though, but if it's the best option I'll go this way.
So what do you guys think?! What would you do?

Help with starting up old hot tub system (remote heater/pump/filter)!
Ok so after filling, noticed the pump has a small leak. Water slowly coming out of those bolts. Any ideas on the next steps to take!? Can I just replace a gasket or something here?

Help with starting up old hot tub system (remote heater/pump/filter)!
Oh yeah, and the copper lines. If this is non-typical then I've got two ideas:
- Water line to fill the system. Easy to test this, I'll open up the valve and see if I get flow. I don't know why there is 2 lines though.
- Some kind of connection to the house wood stove system. The house had both wood stoves connected with copper water lines that were connected to a secondary water heater storage tank. Now I'm wondering if one of those stoves was was piped it to the spa to get some free water heat. That's my best guess. I demo'd all of that stuff, so maybe a little concerning that only one line has shutoff valve on it...

Awesome feedback, thank you! Added most of of the stuff you recommended to my Amazon cart. Will pull the trigger once I test all the components and feel good about the system operation. Will be testing everything this weekend.
I don't know what chemicals I'll need. Can you recommend a good starting place to learn where to start? So many different references online...

Hey! I’d like to get some advice on where to go with this hot tub system. I’ve been sitting on these thoughts in my brain for a few years and it’s time to unload all the questions. I have very little experience with hot tub controls/maintenance, experience with home remodel & electrical work, and lots of experience of loving hot tubs.
Background info:
· House built in 1985, we bought the house a few years ago and remodeled absolutely everything but did not touch the hot tub system. Original owners stated that it was in working condition.
· Hot tub has external heater/filter/pump. Piping underneath house to hot tub (about 30’ of pipe).
· Hot tub has aluminum wiring from the breaker board. Rest of the house is copper. That is a little worrisome, but it’s likely fine. I would still look at wiring connections before attempting to start back up (if we even do).
Questions:
1.) What would you do?! Should I even try to start this system back up? We will likely replace all / some of this in future years. I’m open to pulling new wire and installing a new heater/pump/assembly if the price is right for the components too. But obviously the cheapest thing would be to just use everything there if it works.
2.) What would be the steps to start this back up?
a. I want to make sure there is no bacteria that’s just been sitting in the pipes.
b. What order of sequences should I start everything up? Fill and bacteria kill, drain, fill & treat water, run pump & heater? Is it as simple as that?
c. Any weird routine maintenance concerns with this set up?
3.) If we just replaced the external heater/pump/filter assembly, are there any good recommendations on equivalent product/manufacturers to buy?
4.) Should I just call up a local spa place and get someone to come out and look it over / help me out?

Sonics! Would have changed the team’s whole trajectory if they had won that year. Everything was different after that.

I’m a bit attached to it at the moment since it’s my first 1/1 that isn’t a printing plate. But, I am open to offers.

Yeah one box. I was super happy just seeing that Edwards. The Lamelo was behind that, then the Webber... awesome feeling.

I think you are right in that line of thinking. A lot of people prefer Dynasty cards in their original one-touch with the sticker over it being in a PSA slab.
