inMy neighbor in Tucson kept calling my new fence a privacy wall, and I finally asked why at 7am
That would bug me too, honestly, because a fence is a fence and nobody calls it a wall unless they want to start something. But then he tells you about his dad and it all makes sense, and now you can't even be mad at the guy. My grandpa was a carpenter and he had this thing where anything you built that touched the ground had to be called a "structure" no matter how small it was, so I grew up thinking a birdhouse on a post was a structure. Weird rules like that stick with you forever and you don't even question them until somebody looks at you funny. Dale was probably just standing there thinking he was giving you a normal compliment the whole time. Kind of sweet when you think about it, he was passing down his dad's thing without even knowing it.

inPSA: those $400 AI art 'courses' on Instagram are mostly recycled YouTube clips, I got burned last week
That $400 is better spent on a Photoshop sub and Skillshare.

inPicked the rotary brush over the flat wire one for a creosote job in Dayton, and I'm glad I did
I saw a guy on a sweepers forum say he hits stage 2 with the rotary every time and only pulls out the flat wire when it's just light soot or a thin glaze. He said the flat wire just glazes over when the creosote is thick and hard, basically polishes it instead of cutting it. Your dark flakes result matches what he described, so that tracks. For light glaze I'd probably still start with the flat wire just to save setup time with the drill, then swap if it's not biting. But once it's a quarter inch and crunchy like yours, rotary all day.
