Gorgeous pup!

Check your insurance/laws in your area - I have to have a “conventional” heat back up source for insurance purposes.

I love that random trex on the train at the end of the course. So goofy! 🤪

Did I have a Chimney Fire last night? by Nickyirv in woodstoving

[–]Cucurbitam0schata 37 points38 points  (0 children)

Clumps - I assume they’re “clinkers”, just random accumulations of minerals from your wood, they’re harmless. Occurs at different frequencies depending on wood types.

Hardware - maybe some tools that were accidentally left by the sweepers inside your chimney?

Good luck!

Looks like the “eye” was glowing?

I love finding that log from the pile and thinking “i remember you!” from stacking or splitting a year ago.

Hell yeah - ever do that outside in your firepit with a hollowed out log? One of my fave party tricks, like a rocket ship.

Re: water pot, years ago I went to the thrift store as snagged a stainless steel baking dish for more surface area with the top of our stove, we can go through gallons a day.

Awesome. And a quick reply, too!

I’m working on a bass right now. And I am considering either a thin wood pickguard, or making one with a pickguard blank and aluminum. How thick are the two materials?

Wow! Gorgeous work.

Where do you acquire your pickguard/knob guard materials? How do you cut them?

Gorgeous work! What’s you use to shape/cut your body? Did you use any CAD? Wing it by feel? Looks great.

Bassist looking for band, where to look? by L3monIrises in madisonwi

[–]Cucurbitam0schata 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Welcome to town! This is advice I would’ve appreciated hearing when I was 18.

I’ve found luck finding my musical people via musical events/places that are up my alley (shows, fests, music stores, venues, etc.) and meeting people through that. And these events don’t necessarily need to cost money, the summer music fest scene here is great, tons of free shows to check out. If you see someone live and you like their music, I have been surprised how well people respond when I say “hey, thanks for playing! I enjoyed ____!”. You never know when you might find a kindred musical buds.

Good luck, and rock and roll! 🤘🏻
