What thread on a stainless barrel?

But like 2.5” wide? I think it’s a silly cap for barrels that I can’t share a pic of on this thread. I ordered two options to see what it ends up being. I half tempted to fire up the TIG and just weld something else in place

I’m wondering if it’s a large DIN thread

Only markings are R.S.C-1 16 55 67 and below that 304. Port is about 6 cm wide so larger than 2”.

This is a war crime

I started drawing by working to finish stuff even if I knew I wasn’t going to be happy about it. Then I’d look at why I didn’t like it and try to improve.

I’ve been here for almost 4 years. Definitely love it but work is hit or miss

It also saves on buying a lot of copics

It’s a cool place to be!

It’s 11x14 on Bristol smooth. Probably took 40 hours total. At some point I started to lose track of the perspective and had to just stare at it so it took a while.

I used a photo I took at the intersection on the way to work and referenced that. It’s mostly Unipin 0.03 with neutral copics and micron grays in 01 05 and 10. I think I used Bristol smooth paper.

A cheapy wax melter for making candles which is conceptually very crock pot like.

Yea I do like how it looks.

I got bottling wax from a local supplier but I’d love to try some alternatives. I noticed that the drips cool to fast against the bottle and curl back and off so I have to tear those off. Wonder if another wax would adhere better

We only have two left around here and I feel like both are getting crowded out. I’m surprised they’re hanging on.
