Was wondering if anyone could give me so tips on distributing from a zass hand mill to the portafilter.

Emptying the drawer into the portafilter and leveling with your indexfinger? Alt. using the WDT (check out this site's article on the WDT in the how-to section)?

Was just wondering how different people approached what I find to be an awkward part of the process (never could get that square block in that round hole as a kid). Thanks, tried the WDT it is definitely cleaner and easier still working out the kinks of even distribution.

I like Peacecup's solution - a piece of card stock with a corner sized notch out of it that fits over the top of the tray. You can see it on his video "A Little Blonde." Works great!

That was a great video (love the kid talking in the background). Will it work if I use a picture of my cat? Thanks.

Or you could encapsulate the url and add some test to serve as the hyperlink.

To do that, go the page you want the reader to go to, highlight the address in the address bar and copy it. go the thread you want to post to, type your message and when you get the phrase you want to be a link type in [url=paste in your webpage address here]Type your test[/url] then close the statement.

You get something like this
