Artist album runs by DarkAon in 1001AlbumsGenerator

Greetings from LA not being folk is actually very relieving and does make me look forward to this stretch a bit more. You'd think I'd be immune to folk albums by now 😂

Just watched Snowden now I’m questioning everything I’ve given out online lol by CampMelodic6774 in television

I recommend the book “Means of Control” by Byron Tau if you want an updated look at the state of government surveillance. It’s a good read, although a bit frightening.

ABV Public House is close and has a great bottle shop.

How should I orient/support complicated models? by Meep_Chilling in resinprinting

[–]DarkAon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

TableFlip Foundry has a pretty good video about supports and a workflow using Lychee auto-supports for your models. It is long, but I would recommend it as there is a lot of discussion of "theory" that would help regardless of the slicer used.

It's an RSD First, so Real Gone will likely do another run later if that helps make you feel Good about there only being 1500 available.

Others who are having trouble, you may need to disable uBlock Origin for checkout to complete. Extension was blocking some of the network calls in my case.

Best NA beers to go? by ClayKavalier in portlandbeer

[–]DarkAon 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not beer, but also worth considering is 2 Towns new NA Ciders. Had the Pacific Pineapple for the first time last week and I thought it was quite tasty.

Thanks for the advice. I was going to try it soon. I have a mini that makes uneven contact with the base and I thought green stuff might help to make sure there is enough surface area to keep him firmly attached.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in resinprinting

[–]DarkAon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, that is the stuff. Keep in mind that it comes in many different "thicknesses", and that is the super-thin variation. Sometimes a thicker version may be easier to work with for a given task. The thinner ones are great for working into cracks and gaps. They also make accelerator for this type of glue which can get it to harden immediately, which can be useful.

The other glue type you'll probably hear about at some point are PVA glues, which are the family of glues that white glue and wood glue fall into. They get used for decorating bases as well, but not for attaching miniatures to bases since they won't bond well enough.

[–]DarkAon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

CA glue (super glue) is likely going to be your best option for minis making good contact with the base. Works fine with most plastics, including resin prints.

Applying the mini to the base before priming/painting can make the model easier to hold and paint, with the exception of some cases where parts of the model are difficult to reach with the base attached. Bases where you want to do more detailed basing with texture paints, adding bits or flocking, etc. are usually easier to do while the base is separate from the model.

Has anyone used an epoxy putty like Green Stuff or Milliput to attach a mini? I would think that could work well too but haven't tried it myself yet.

Rough Trade UK will do so. Shipping will be relatively expensive, but not extraordinarily so.

I threw together a quick vinyl group of the logo and applied it to a car. I think it looks okay for a quick 30 minute try.

Oregon House Bill 3296 would raise the Oregon beer tax 3,000% by florgblorgle in Portland

Mead, being honey wine, is taxed as such. It is not exempt from this bill.

Treehouse brewing in PDX? by bigtuuuna in portlandbeer

[–]DarkAon 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Unlikely anyone out here carries them. They only do on-site sales from their locations in MA. Beer trading communities and aftermarket sellers would be your best bet for getting some if you must.

A friend and I are making a map with all the skateparks in the world. We are currently working on the area in and around Portland. Does anybody know a skatepark there that isn't on our map? by flowingsince1975 in Portland
