I used to clean shutter blades with a cotton swab, but after a Nikon F2 job last month, I switched to a tiny brush and lens tissue.

The swab left fibers that jammed the mechanism, costing me 2 hours to re-clean, so now I ask: what's your go-to method for delicate shutter cleaning?

Found a neat trick for matching a palette to a specific photo using a free tool called Coolors

Warning: I was wasting a full hour a day on layer selection in Illustrator

My problem was picking objects behind others. Tried clicking, got mad. Found the 'Select Similar' button. Hold down the 'Selection' tool, a tiny menu pops up. Click 'Select Similar Objects'. It grabs everything with the same fill or stroke instantly. Saved me over 5 hours last week alone. Anyone know a faster way to do this for grouped items?

Showerthought: My quick stretch session mid-install got me stuck in a doorway

I was laying laminate in a tight hallway and my back started aching. Decided to do a quick hamstring stretch against the door frame to loosen up. Somehow, I shifted wrong and got my leg wedged in the opening. Had to call my helper over to help pry me out without scratching the new planks. The homeowner peeked around the corner just as I was popping free. We all had a good laugh, but my pride was a bit bruised. Take this with a grain of salt, but maybe save the yoga for the gym, not the job site.
