Phil Tedder makes the raddest coping blocks around. Check out his website to see projects he’s worked on and order up some hard long-lasting blocks for that backyard bowl. Tedder tells me shipping is prohibitively expensive over 1200 miles these days (Thanks Bush administration) but if you’re local this is the block for you.

I noticed Wes’ two foot basement ramp wasn’t listed on the project page…

What a guy does in the privacy of his basement is his own business.

Is it better than that Penrose crap that Wormhonk uses all over Nor Cal?
dave
much harder and longer lasting…
the comparison picture on the site is pembrose on the left and tedders on the right.

Glenhaven and Battleground could sure use some of this stuff.

what mac? GLENHAVEN and BATTLEGROUND? Whats wrong with the coping there? Its not even broken in yet! Glenhaven is way to slick and fast and Battle Ground is getting near perfect. Donald is aging perfect like fine wine. Dont be a pussy mac and grind the shit……PT rules.

Scum, I’m grinding that shit every chance I get, but I prefer grinding the shit that actually sticks out from the wall.

I wish Phil could bend pipe for coping it makes you trucks last longer and wont get in your lungs as dust and cause cancer,much safer.

Doctor, is asbestos Tedder’s secret ingredient for durability?
The Dude?
Anything can cause cancer. Even the smelling of a sweetwoman from any part of her body.

What does the Bush administration have to do with shipping costs?

Haliburton owns FedEx and UPS
…and a minority stake in the United States Post Office.

I think we can hold the Bush administration responsible for a 100% increase in fuel prices over the last eight years. It happened on their watch, man. Meanwhile the oil companies enjoy record profits while most everything else including the currency value of the US dollar goes to shit. Bush has ties to the oil industry, coincidence?

“Bush has ties to the oil industry, coincidence?”
As much as I agree that Bush and his cronies lied us into Iraq over oil it is nevertheless a fact that the fundamental reason for rising oil prices is because it is a finite resource whose production has reached its peak while worldwide demand continues to increase as much of Asia industrializes.

D.I.Y. is freedom. Go off grid! There is always a better, more simple way to heat your house or fuel your car. Ultimately convenience and creature comforts are the god we serve. It’s compounded if you have kids, you almost have to compromise to provide them the American dream life. After awhile it all makes my brain hurt…[f-it] I’d rather shut up and skate.
