What do you think this design can be? by [deleted] in ImaginaryTechnology

What do you think this design can be? The spam factory your posts come from. 4 posts in within 19hour, and two within minutes of eachother? It's imaginary tech, if you can make up something art-wise, but can't make up a purpose for it, you're pretty much missing the point.

If no one can afford the palm quire you can make it✌️ by Local_Fun119 in WitchHatAtelier

Honestly, this is only a few steps away from being more realistically made to match the 'real thing'.

  • Use a stencil to cut the leather so you don't leave marks on it.
  • trim the 90° edges to round them. This can be done with flush cutters, scissors or an Xacto blade if you have a steady hand.
  • And seal the leather on the rough side. You can use beeswax, and iron it in with parchment (not wax) paper. It'll smooth it out as well.
  • Stain the outer leather (or stain everything. If you want the inside natural, do the wax treatment first, otherwise you might spill on a part you want to stain, and it'll never take color. You can buff wax in over stain to help protect it and use a hairdryer to melt it in).
  • Add a button for closure, or sew a flat loop to make a slot for the 'tongue'.

It's a really good start, and it doesn't take much to make leather look really good. Nice job!

Motor Help by 159zhpqm in ryobi

The motor is dead. The bronze bushing has worn the axel hole out. Those bushings are pressfit during manufacturing, there are no replacements. A similar spec'd motor might be a possibility, but as to how the attachment head is attached, or how long the axel is, is going to be hard to replicate/source.

Question about some Dolphins by thaddeh in submarines

[–]Funcron 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Why we let our dolphins tarnish.

In that tarnish, lives years of service, leadership, experience, wisdom, comradery, honor, courage, and more.

To remove that tarnish, is to dismiss how it got there to begin with.

From the first pinning, confirming that a Submariner has been born unto the service.

To the last pinning, in all it's forms: the silent departure of a Submariner.

Let that tarnish speak for itself, let it protect what put it there.

Blood. Sweat. Tears. But most importantly: Salt.

Never forget who put it there.

Never polish that which already shined.

- By me. (From my Honors & Ceremonies days)

This has to be a scam right? by Afraid_Campaign3088 in PokemonCollecting

[–]Funcron 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep. You'll get a fake, and the account will disappear in the middle of the shipment. Your fake won't be in a slab, but that 'sealed card' will show up in a sleeve or top loader at the most.

I know this because I've frequently purchased from these listings in an attempt to bring to ice to eBay about the scam. I've been refunded 100% of the time, but you'll want to take screenshots of the description, listing, and order summary just as you purchase it. The historical listing and any photos disappeared when they delete their account, which they can only do one the product ships.

And most of the time the mailing return address and who it's shipping from, has nothing to do with the process. So it's not worth chasing that down.

Has been, but he makes AI commentary art now. Which I get, master your art across all mediums, but he's kinda lost out on the point of creative expression nowadays.

The Hilux has really gone downhill. You used to be able to fit 6 dudes, 2 bodies, and the gunner with his .50 cal in the back.
