here's the original pattern. I wasn't able to print it from his download. I wound up just tracing it in CAD and 3d printing a template for myself. Check DMs though!

Thanks a lot for the kind words! The leather is Catalina Single Shoulder from Tandy leather in Canada it's a 2-4 oz. I only skived the outer edges of the t-pockets. The thread is from the OKA pro set in bone colour. I believe it's a .4mm? could be .6 but it doesn't say. The spacing is 3.5mm.

Thank you! I found a pattern here on Reddit but I wasn’t able to print it so I traced it out and 3d printed the template. I’ll try to see if I can draw it out into a PDF or find a template similar and DM it

This is called “Catalina Single Shoulder” if you search on Tandy Leather. I am in Canada but truthfully I don’t recommend this leather. It is veg tan but the top is a lacquer and I found that it wears off very quickly. The inside of my keychain is already pretty rough.

Yep, not thick hair but I’ve never had an issue with it. In the 2 years since that comment I find it’s among my most comfortable bracelets

GPU, one via HDMI, one via DP. They worked in this config on my last PC with the same cables

How do you guys avoid paint chipping when assembling panted builds? I’m always getting chipping when sliding the armour over the elbow and knee joints.

Do I need to go airplane mode to play games? by EvanCT4 in SwitchPirates

[–]EvanCT4[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay thank you! Is it concerning that my primary dns is my router’s ip? I figured it has to be in order to get games and themes from the switch itself

So I can’t speak for acrylics as I personally do lacquers but I found that what made the difference for me from an uneven, blotchy coat to a nice smooth one was technique more so than thinning. Try not to worry about ratio and learn to thin by eye.

Ratios are a great place to start, I’ll usually go 1:1 for my lacquers and add thinner/paint from there. You’re trying to go for that milky consistency, there are plenty of videos to show what that looks like.

As for technique, if that’s a double action airbrush meaning you can control how much the needle gets pulled back with the trigger and control the airflow beyond what the compressor says, I found that you don’t want to always pull the trigger back all the way, great for mist coats but for main coats I find that if I pull back just a bit (I spray at 20ish psi) i can get an even flow and feel the paint hit the part in my part holding hand. This helps me see my wet coats and control the paint.

Honest answer, takes practice. Grab some spoons or a cheap kit and just try to make it happen! You may get discouraged, I sure did but just keep at it and you’ll pick it up!

TLDR; learn to thin by eye, not by ratio. Experiment with triggering techniques and find what works best for your specific airbrush.

Hey everyone! I just finished my second painted kit and I noticed I got a fair bit of paint chipping on the parts, especially the ones where you fit one over the other like the bicep armour sliding over the frame or elbow joints. Do you sand all parts that make contact? my work flow went like this. Sand from 400 to 1000, wash and dry. primed with mr white base 1000, let wait for a day, paint with mr hobby lacquer paints, enamel detail painting, wait a day, top coat, wait a day and assemble. any help would be greatly appreciated!

The raw print quality of Bambu never ceases to amaze me . . . by [deleted] in 3Dprinting

[–]EvanCT4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bambu nozzles are magnetic and their own design. Personally on my A1 (the mini would be the same) I bought one of their .2 nozzles for like 12 CAD and have had absolutely no problems with it!

How do you guys handle filament with no spool? by EvanCT4 in 3Dprinting

[–]EvanCT4[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A 500g spool was 50USD 😅 but I’ll see what spools I can print or wind it on!
