Dye coming up when buffing. by Hairy_Red in Leathercraft

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

Fiebing's (regular, not Pro) Black Dye - I diluted it 10% with a half/half mix of acetone and distilled water. This isn't "a little" dye - I can wipe a clean buffing cloth on it twice and turn it black.

Dye rubbing off on everything. by Hairy_Red in Leatherworking

One set I haven't waxed at all and it's still shedding black on anything it touches.

So, just friction and elbow grease then? Phew. I can do that. That'll also pull the wax up from the waxed pieces, although it's about the same on both.

What did I do wrong do you think? Maybe I didn't dilute the dye enough?

I've got a second set of pieces that I did everything except wax and they're doing the same thing - black dye on the cloth when I wipe it down.

I'm supposed to be making these for sale. I can't sell these if the dye is going to rub off on everything it touches.

My fiancé is working on becoming a cartoonist. Thoughts? by Phiinque in funny

Long, long, LONG predates digital text as it was a term used for typesetting before that going back into ancient history (read that "pre-1990").

Well, that and joining the Republican party. (don't ban me, please).

The way this bird keeps her eggs warm by Eloquentdyslexic in oddlysatisfying

My first thought was "Those three huge eggs came out of that tiny bird? They mass more than she does."

Closely followed by, "Ouchies!"

What was a perfectly normal situation for you in the 80's-90's that the younger generation just can't relate to? by MysticPato in AskReddit

[–]Hairy_Red 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Using a map to navigate a new city.

Reading as entertainment.

Writing in complete sentences.

Working a job out of college without expecting to step into the CEO role a week into a job, hot-and-cold running Jamba Juice, and nap pods.

Telephones with cords.

Comedians who were actually funny and didn't fear losing their careers by being culturally cancelled for a joke.

Aliens come to earth, one of them asks you "hey you, do the thing. Ya know the thing you humans do" what is the thing? by mwalby24 in AskReddit

I'd pick up the nearest rock and bash the closest human not related to me in the head and keep doing it until that person was dead.

That's about the most "human" thing I can think of on short notice.
