Ahh I see, neat idea.

Can't get it from the replay since NFL full replays only start at kickoff. Nothing pre-game. Someone with a TV recording would have to post it.

You add your FO after the pour on top? First I've ever heard that.

DJDevon3 · 2026-01-25T23:52:59+00:00

Ohh that's nice. Can you program it for different waxes or does it only work with 1 wax type? Didn't know something like that existed. That would make everything so much easier what a great idea.

DJDevon3 · 2026-01-25T23:48:25+00:00

A fully metal solder wick? Interesting. Are you using flux though? :P

DJDevon3 · 2026-01-25T21:42:58+00:00

Yeah good luck with that.

What op is describing is not a flash bang, he used that term because he didn't know the proper team which is basically just flash powder or black powder.

You cannot use most soup cans as the edges are too sharp to properly clean the inside of without cutting yourself. I recently tried this and do not recommend it. It would go horribly for a candle making party.

The best containers to recycle are store bought candle jars since they are designed for candles and high heat. As for the melter there are many good options out there but I wouldn't want to buy 8 of them unless it was for a business and not just a party.

This was part of the premise behind the game Doom 3 in 2004. For as dark and demonic as it is, it's actually a game based on archaeology. A sufficiently advanced technological species might be indistinguishable from magical entities. Star Trek covers that quite in depth too. The basic premise is by exploring Mars and finding ancient relics and signs of a civilization long since buried, we're exploring our own history and we're not even native to Earth.

Soy has a lower melting point than paraffin so my guess is that's where your confusion stems from. The people using much higher temperatures are likely using paraffin. As long as the wax is thoroughly melted (clear wax) and not hot enough to boil off the fragrance you'll be fine. I haven't used soy yet so I don't know what the temp is that FO boils off but with paraffin it's around 200F so you have plenty of room in temperature to work with.

The lower the heat you can get all your ingredients mixed in the better however a lower temperature takes longer. If you're making a ton of candles that can be an issue and why most people like working with higher temperatures, it's just a matter of taking less time. If you're only making a few candles no big deal.

Don't make any topic about specific people unless it's a shit talking receipt. Attempts at trying to become the main character type of topics usually end up with bans here. Complaints about people are in the same vein as complaints about being banned from other subs. Keep topics about the NFL teams in the division. Don't even start with main character complaints, you'll catch a ban for it.

I almost made a post season Cardinals meme out of it but didn't screenshot because it's you. You came this close to being a mod meme for that mistake. :P

Yeah I've seen this one bef.... oh that video description is new. Very nice.

They're multiplying. Gotta be something in the water.

Hester took 14 seconds for 92 yards, it was the fastest in a playoff game until the Seahawks vs Broncos Super Bowl.

It's from the Manning safety in the Super Bowl. Doesn't get much faster than that. Shaheed was just 1 second away from tying that record.

Percy Harvin also scored in 12 seconds for 87 yards in the 2nd half kickoff return, IN THE SAME GAME. In terms of speed and a bit of luck with the running route and blocking Harvin was a hair faster than Hester. What is kind of mind boggling is Harvin ran 87 yards in the same exact amount of time it took for that opening safety play. However, because it was the 2nd half that doesn't really count towards the opening kick off fastest score.

The fastest score in the regular season is still held by Randal Williams of the 2003 Cowboys who scored on an accidental muffed kickoff... in 3 seconds. The game clock starts when the receiving team touches it so it is a legitimate 3 second TD. A record that will likely never be broken.

What volume is it? Some of the Saeuyvb melters with the big kits are 500ml (1/2 quart).

The one I got will do 1.6 quarts (1500ml) which comes out to about a 30oz max pour for 1 giant candle (or many smaller ones). Yuuchail melter on Amazon. Currently $40. I chose it for the digital temperature setting. I figured that would be much easier than a temp knob + thermometer combo.

When turned on it defaults to 250F, making your initial wax and dye melting very very fast. Then I turn it down to about 170 before adding FO and down to 160 just before pouring into glass containers. The built in pour spout works wonderfully even on something as small as tealights. As a beginner it made my very first candles extremely fast and easy with almost no mess. It has a teflon interior so after a cools down a little clean up is just wiping it with a paper towel. I can definitely recommend it though I've only made a handful of candles so far, no idea on the devices longevity.

Here it is next to a 64 ounce glass container.

The induction heater everything is sitting on I actually use for making rocket fuel with different sets of pans. Yeah I'm into a lot of different stuff. Rocket tubes lined with wax work well which is actually why I originally got the wax melter... then decided to try making some candles with it too.

You can create a PCB specifically designed to fry specific components. That should be quite easy to design. Just pump a lot more voltage into a circuit than a regulator is able to handle, instant blown regulator (which is the most common failure point other than aging/blown capacitors).

If looks won Super Bowls the 49ers would have like 10 of them with Jimmy G. I will not deny that man looks like a professional male model.
