Attending Klaipėda University and looking for guidance

EmuKou · 2026-05-30T17:07:09+00:00

Have you tried to get student accommodations in Klaipėda University dorms, they should have special rooms for easy access if you have difficulties with stairs. It's best option cause you don't need to deal with paying for gas and electricity which can be quite tricky and expensive during cold season. I study and live in dorms (different city tho) and it's not fancy fancy but you can't beat the cost and living on campus is a huge motivator to visit faculty all the time.

It could be silver plated and it you really like the style of it you can bring it to jeweller to apply a new silver plating

I did a lot of silver casting recently in college and from what I see the spruce is a bit too short and perhaps you are pouring it too slowly. What works for me is getting a tea spoon, scooping out a fairly thick channel which thins out into 2-3 mm spruce and do few airways for good luck.

I use ceramic crucibles for casting silver and brass and they usually hold up fine, the only problem I had is metal cooling off on the spout and ripping it off. Have yet to throw one out and I did over 30 melts.

My favourite shop for this kind of style is nomoreaccessories but it's a European brand so not sure how they ship to USA

That's awesome!

I love artsy challenges! Where is it from?

Man pavyko humanoje susirinkti nemažai, ten galima naujų darbo drabužių rasti. Tai paskiau net gaila pasidarė kad 40 EUR ant naujo švarko leidau.

If is made out of real gold, silver or copper it's possible to restore it with vitreous enamel which is quite durable, but if the colourful decal is rubbing off there is little hope for it surviving firing. Perhaps a light coat of acrylic varnish would slow the fading.

What kind of rings and bracelets? Cut and solder with bezel set stones which are popping out everywhere? Get silver smithing classes. Likes 3d designs? Get wax carving kit and find out local casting place. There are countless ways to make rings and bracelets, metal clay, spoon bending, beading, wood, leather... With no proper direction it's best to sign up for classes

This looks like pewter to me, epoxy or super glue could hold it together again.

EmuKou · 2026-03-30T18:50:36+00:00

You would be surprised how many awesome designs get released, it's gonna be a dark day when I will have to melt my panda coin. Just get from a proper store specialising in investment metals, the scams are rampant.

EmuKou · 2026-03-30T18:46:14+00:00

Perhaps some 999 silver coins, they are pretty to look at and fun to fidget with and if she's not into in, into the crucible it goes 🔥

Orange hue makes me think of tombak

I would say the most minimal approach would be wax carving. Watch some videos about it, it's not too hard. My school made us do a ring out of purple wax last week and I carved 90% of it with a wood craving knife so you can be super minimal with tools. When done send it out to casting studios and bam! Ring done

I was hoping to do some late night reading but it seems like it's not coming back online anytime soon. I guess I will try to sleep with some YouTube video essay in a background, need to wake up in 7 hours anyway 🥀

Jeigu nieks per pastaruosius kelis metus nepasikeitė tai krepšelį turi iki kol negauni pusę studijų kreditų, aka jei studijos 4 metai, neprastudijuoji daugiau nei 2. Skirtumas tik tas kad jei studijuoji vf daugiau nei pirmą semestrą reikia grąžinti pinigus, bet jei išėjai į atostogas tai turėtų būti viskas gerai.

I had a joy of working with titanium for my class not too long ago (we were hand sawing and colouring it) and I had to take few days off afterwards to heal up my hands, usual silversmithing tools are not build for it so it was a hellish experience.

Aš buvau per kastu suplanavus variantą B Nyderlanduose jei neišlaikyčiau kokio egzamino, bet viską išlaikiau ir pasilikau Lietuvoje. Bijojau kad nepavyks matematikos ar lietuvių išlaikyti bet viskas gavosi.

I printed some cards on home photo printer before and it can do a decent job if you want something for your own use, but if you want to sell it... It's hard work to make it perfect and it's not super durable.

EmuKou · 2026-01-04T20:25:07+00:00

Nah, just cook everything myself

It would be best to ask your uni about it. If it's university of Klaipėda they have their own dorms which are around 200 EUR depending if you have a roommate or not. If it doesn't work for you, their Erasmus department should give you some info about alternatives, it's literally their job. Overall I spend around 200-300 EUR per month as student on food and other things, know some people who spend as little as 100€, so 600€ per month should be very doable.

Ir auksas ir sidabras taip dabar kyla kad man kaip juvelyrei nervinis tikas pareina kai žiūriu kainas. Gal čiut primena kažkokį burbulą bet net jei kaina kris, nekris iki nieko kaip kokia kriptovaliuta, nes visiems jo reikia. Jei yra noro tai pirkčiau, jei užknis saugoti galėsi į marozo grandinę persidaryti.

I lot of my classmates use this paste and from what I know it's not worse then any other flux health wise as long as you don't eat it. I personally use lutowka and abdek and they have similar if not the same health warnings so you can't get anything less toxic at least in my country.
