Buddy of mine tried the silicone seals after years of fighting with latex. Swore they felt less stiff in cold water and didn't crack as fast. He still uses them for his weekend dives up in the Sound.

@danielb43 Yucatecan is a style not a brand, it's from the Yucatán peninsula originally.

Well hold on, a perfectly level patio looks amazing and you can always just seal the pavers real good to keep water from getting through. Nothing wrong with wanting something that sits flat and true, drainage is what gutters are for anyway.

Wait, are you telling me there's people out there who actually sleep on the ground like cavemen? I hit 60 nights in my hammock last year alone and I'm never going back. My buddy keeps trying to sell me on his fancy air mattress setup but I just laugh and point at my underquilt that packs down to the size of a football.

Haha, oh man. That's the most "fixing things" story I've heard in a while. Congrats on the full engine stand rebuild you didn't need.
