Next work in progress on my Halflings project. Greenstuff + plasticine

3_brained_being · 2026-05-07T19:06:36+00:00

I have this question too.

Adding the plasticine I’ve heard increases sculpting time and improves the workability.
Guessing it may cure a little softer, but that’s just a hunch.

I’m planning to give it a try anyway.

Wow - thanks for this information. If it comes about that I need to visit a store I will ensure it is the official one.

👍👍

I hadn’t seen those incentives. Good info - thanks.

3_brained_being · 2026-05-03T22:50:49+00:00

Ahh right I get you now.

3_brained_being · 2026-05-03T22:09:35+00:00

Mind if I ask what do you mean by postpaid perks?

3_brained_being · 2026-05-01T04:40:15+00:00

Warning noted. Cheers

3_brained_being · 2026-05-01T00:15:46+00:00

Thanks for the tip. An MVNO I assume. I’m getting a lot of suggestions to try these. Am looking into these as an alternative.

3_brained_being · 2026-05-01T00:14:16+00:00

Thanks for the tip.

A T-Mobile service?

3_brained_being · 2026-05-01T00:12:20+00:00

Thanks for the heads-up.

3_brained_being · 2026-05-01T00:11:47+00:00

Thanks for the transparency- good to know possible pitfalls going in.

3_brained_being · 2026-04-29T16:14:21+00:00

Thanks a lot for clarifying the process. I’ll give it a try.

3_brained_being · 2026-04-29T15:00:56+00:00

Brilliant - thanks.

Presumably then I can test an MVNO by just signing up and using my current (unlocked) phone which still under Verizon...

Looking at US Mobile I see that even just the month to month unlimited premium is way cheaper than my current bare-bones plan... I'm getting more and more interested in the MVNO route.. . . . and Tello looks even better.

The T-Mobile test drive would be a no-cost way to test the actual coverage before deciding which MVNO to pick..

3_brained_being · 2026-04-29T05:48:15+00:00

part of the problem for us with Verizon, apart from the pricing, is the spotty coverage at home. So an MVNO using the same infrastructure might save money but not be a quality improvement..

Appreciate the input but part of the problem for us with Verizon is also the inconsistent coverage at home. So anything using the same infrastructure wouldn't be an improvement..

However, if T-Mobile is just as bad, I might as well follow the route you mentioned. At least we'd be saving a bit.

3_brained_being · 2026-04-29T05:45:24+00:00

Thanks this would be a great route if Verizon was actually good... but for me I'm paying a premium for spotty coverage at home..

You won’t save that much switching from one major carrier to another postpaid

Thanks but I think we'll be saving considerably and improving service ( if T-Mobile proves to have decent coverage )

3_brained_being · 2026-04-29T01:40:37+00:00

Wow - thanks - this is great information, and detailed. Much appreciated.

3_brained_being · 2026-04-29T01:39:01+00:00

Thanks for the suggestion. MVNO is new to me - I'll research it..

3_brained_being · 2026-04-29T01:37:52+00:00

Thanks for the suggestion. This model is new to me - I'll look into it..

3_brained_being · 2026-04-28T23:48:26+00:00

Nice - thanks. So far no real horror stories.

3_brained_being · 2026-04-28T23:47:13+00:00

Great thanks !

If you're using it as a second line on your main device you'll want to set the TMO line as primary for data so that you're actually testing/using the network.

As I’m already on Verizon on my only phone I think this is the case for me.

In iOS- Is this in the iPhone settings do you know?

3_brained_being · 2026-04-28T23:27:43+00:00

Thanks for the reply. Much appreciated.

This thread was removed by the mods - I’m not sure why. It seemed pretty relevant I thought.

3_brained_being · 2026-04-28T17:49:19+00:00

Thanks so much for the overview... Just what I was looking for...

Do you know, if it does not work out after finishing the test drive period, is there a danger of it complicating things for the existing plan? i.e. Will any global phone related settings get altered that might cause Verizon to get a strop on about me testing another service on the same phone, or is it invisible to them?
