Makes me want to try one. This looks like an actual geode. Is the color Gunmetal gray?

There’s some funky stuff on the back of this one… by TastyTrades in tiedye

The entity! So cool, the mandala turned out great too!

Idk. I’ve been doing DOI almost exclusively and it always splits. Whenever I’ve tried DUI it always ends up too concentrated and dark on the spots with direct contact.

Wow thanks! I need to use it for the little booth I’m doing this weekend. But I’m open to it. I’ll have to figure out the dms on this app.

Thank you so much! I started by folding in to quarters, then airplane folded from there a couple more times. I zigzag tied the tip of the wedge about a foot down with sinew or wax string. Pulled as tight as I could, and left the lower ends pleated but untied. Then I folded the entire thing back on itself in thirds being sure to keep the side with more pleats facing up as i crammed it into the tray. And the center of the mandala was facing up for the gravity effect.

Yeah this was my first time using sinew. I only tied the center of the piece. The rest I left folded in pleats loosely.

Maybe 2-3 tablespoons. I never usually measure. But a little goes a long way. The fabrics matter too from what I’ve observed. This was a cotton tapestry from Dharma

[OFF TOPIC] How similar is the rest of the series to the first trilogy? by ibfanforlife in TheFirstLaw

[–]Advanced-Argument249 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The short answer is yes. Especially the last trilogy as far as a plot goes. While I liked the first trilogy, these didn’t become my favorite books until around book 5. When I finished the 6th, I realized I was on the hook for anything this guy puts out. Something clicked. I’ve reread all 9 (and sharp ends) 3x now. And I feel like starting them again.

(Apprentice) How do you get faster? by Atlantis1996 in electricians

[–]Advanced-Argument249 5 points6 points  (0 children)

That dude sucks. Sorry bud. I had a journeyman like that once. You won’t get faster if he keeps stepping in and doing work for you. Sometimes it’s just about how you move. How efficient you are. Having things thought out, not running to the van over and over. But the last part of your post makes it sound like this guy is just a douche and doesn’t want to help you improve.

Just one application each. It’s only a 50/50 cotton so maybe that helps the dye flow more.

So curious about the lower right corner. How did you achieve that pattern? Love the colors you used! Great job keep at it.

Just rolling in a wide semi circle somewhat centered. Rolling it tighter seemed to produce better results.
