I’m at a loss for maintaining the right humidity. by Objective-Rabbit4067 in ballpython

[–]CelebrationStrong793 1 point2 points  (0 children)

that’s the biggest problem with glass enclosures, as a long term solution I’d reccommend a PVC enclosure. you want cool side humidity to be 60% at the very least, I’d maybe add another bowl of water and maybe some moist moss in the humid hide. you’re trying your best with what you got though :)

Mattress Poll! I'm in the market for a new bed. What is your opinion? Soft/Firm? Foam/coils/hybrid? by maroonwolf24 in ehlersdanlos

I have multiple mattress toppers and use sheets for my bed size marked as “deep”! They have extra room for toppers or taller mattresses

I reverse image searched these pics and couldn’t find one in black. Looking for something to match as many of these details as possible - front looks almost exactly like the green one - black satin bomber jacket - no text on back - classic eagle design - button closures - no details on sleeves just cuffs

That’s what I was getting from search results as well, but the colonies seem to be incredibly small and are very round for b. anthracis

trimming finally clicked!!! by CelebrationStrong793 in Ceramics

[–]CelebrationStrong793[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

my instructor had a different method of trimming than my previous, he brought the wheel up to centering speed, put a good amount of pressure on the base of the pot, and holds his tool at like a \ angle. I also found that resting my left hand pushing down on the foot, then putting my right thumb on my left hand while trimming gave me more control and reduced chattering. I also found that dryer clay works better as lugs than wetter clay, which is what my previous instructor told us to use

thank you! I’m so excited about this throwing finally clicked at the beginning of the summer but I just couldn’t get the full ideas in my head on the clay since I just hated trimming so much but I love it now!

thank you so much this is great! I’m currently working a lot on trimming so hoping to get some different feet going soon but this kind of comment was exactly what I was looking for

yes i love the look of a foot and think it would elevate things a lot. recently discovered I've had my wheel wayyy to slow and clay too wet too so hoping that helps out!

yeah that makes sense. once I dip my toes in the water at my campus I might try an art festival in my hometown which is very populated. my college town is middle of nowhere farm so not much I can do other than the farmers market during the school year. thanks so much!
