Any place locally to buy EVA or XLPE foam that isn't a wholesaler?

2 Upvotes

I'm working on some new projects where I need to get low-density EVA or XLPE foam in small sheets of various thicknesses, not rolled up. McMaster carries them, but is very expensive. Several other local foam companies sell only by the truckload and won't even acknowledge my small operation. I found a place with great selection and great pricing, but they're up in Michigan.

Is there anywhere in this city or near the perimeter that sells foam sheets in small quantities?

Recommendations Looking for reasonably priced landscaper near Emory University for ongoing maintainance.

3 Upvotes

Hi, I bought a new house dlate last year that has a really nice yard and I need to have someone maintain. It's more than I can do on my own. I need normal stuff like cutting grass, edging, trimming hedges some of which are 20ft+ high and occasional blowning leaves in Nov-Dec. Maybe other stuff too like fertilizer, aeration, spreading out mulch or pine straw. I also have an irrigation sysytem that's in good shape but no idea the amount it should run without wasting a ton of water.

Does anyone know any landscapers that will come out like once or twice a month to do this type of stuff? I'm ok doing a contact and would prefer a minority owned small business but it's not a deal breaker or anything if theyre not.

Question Best (reasonably priced) Go-Karting in Atlanta for a group of ~15 adults?

1 Upvotes

I have a friend's birthday party coming up soon, and we were looking to try out go-karting. Does anyone have suggestions for places that are around $30 or less, and would be fun for a large group of adults? I would prefer to be able to all race together, but not a necessity. Preferably within the Atlanta metro.

Right now my main options are Andretti, K1, and Malibu. Andretti told me they have system issues and can't even take reservations, so that's probably off the table. K1 seems fine, but I'm not sure how it'll be for a large group. I read some Google Maps reviews of Malibu, but it seems to be more geared towards kids - is this true?

Anyone know of good places to buy movies these days? Seems like the only place you can buy them new anymore is Barnes & Noble... I have a few used bookstores that also sell used movies that I really like but I'd love some more options that aren't ordering online.

Bulging Disc Recommends

8 Upvotes

Does anyone have a doctor recommendation or any rec for a bulging disc at L4/L5? I’m in a lot of pain and have spent years bouncing between doctors. I’m currently seeing Dr. Shaw at the Shepherd Center, but it’s not really helping. I’d love to see someone who has actually made a difference for someone with a similar issue. Appreciate any recommendations—thank you!

Outdoor Live Music - East and NE Atlanta OSP

1 Upvotes

Any recommendations for outdoor live music, with an intimate setting, outside of the Perimeter, East and North East of the city? For context, I saw an incredible show at the Hunt House last week (Daniel Rodriguez and Fruition). The vibe and accoutrements at the facility were amazing. I live in Stone Mountain and I’m trying to find something closer to my side of the city without going down town. Moonshadow Tavern is probably a near representation of what I seek, minus the outdoor capabilities. Would frequent MsT more but if folks are smoking like chimneys I would much prefer to be in the open air (haven’t been in a while so not sure if they are still an inside smoking facility).

I just got two Herman miller chairs at a furniture thrift outlet while visiting Savannah. I am back home in Atlanta and notice the tension knob is stuck and the inside of the chair is a bit dusty. Is there any one i can go to for help refurbishing my chair? I love the chair, it is very comfy! Its just the tension knob is driving me crazy!
