inMy old shop teacher warned me about particleboard shelves, and 9 months later his words caught up with me
Small correction: the thing to watch is the span length and shelf load more than the board thickness alone, since even 3/4 inch plywood will bow over a long enough run. What board are you leaning toward for the replacements?

inWalked into a spot in Bakersfield and the owner had 9 chairs lined up but only 2 mirrors
You ever try cutting hair while looking at the back of somebody's head the whole time? It messes with your brain after a while. My buddy ran a two chair shop off Rosedale and his second chair faced a window, guys would just stare at the parking lot. Quick cuts for oil field hands actually makes sense though, those dudes roll in with hard hats and grease and want in and out. Owner probably saves money not hanging mirrors and nobody complains. Weird setup but smart in its own cheap way.

inTook me 6 hours to center one icon in an SVG viewBox, and I am not sorry I did it by hand
Six hours nudging a viewBox by 0.5 in Brackets until the pixels snapped is real love for your craft, and I get it because mixed sets are a pain. The only thing that works for me is drawing everything on the same grid from scratch, since pack icons never quite match your lines.
