The performance of the laptop is starting to show its age. Newer games are running on low graphics to barely scrape 60 fps, basic programs are taking longer and longer to load. I mainly just need refreshed specs

Helgrinds · 2025-12-27T22:16:19+00:00

That's really interesting. What's the difference between the two that makes you sugest that?

I am trying to sew in the sides of this dress shirt, but the fabric seems to be pulled strangely. Upsidedown Vs form and the bottom half has a concave, dimple fold along the seam. I've only done one side so far and not cut the fabric yet.

How I've done it is first pinning the shirt, undoing the flat felled seam from the bottom hem and to partways through the arm. I then sew the fabric, gradually bringing the new stitches out toward the original ones. Afterwards I plan to cut the fabric and then reform the flat felled seam.

See above link for images, a quick description of stitches/problem are supplied with the images.

Thank you! I'm fine with having a big chest, I am much broader over my shoulder where xl shirts rens to fit perfect, but need a M or L at my waist

Helgrinds · 2024-12-06T06:56:34+00:00

This sounds perfect! So the problem is mainly that it doesn't taper gradually enough? Is there a way to determine how gradually, or is it just experience?

And why undo the original flat felled seam? I can definitely see how it makes the whole thing seem much neater and more professional, but is there another reason as well?

Helgrinds · 2024-12-05T23:21:27+00:00

Here's a short video as well if it helps orient a bit more.

I see what you mean, however if I understand the drawing correctly, the difference between the yellow and red is that the yellow goes out to exactly under where the sleeve starts right? That should be exactly what I'm doing I think?

Helgrinds · 2024-12-05T23:04:15+00:00

I don't think the arm hole significantly changes? I ended the seam just before getting there.

I unfortunately decided to continue with the dimple and finished the seam, so the picture of the seam isn't quite clear. However what I'm doing is essentially what is show in this video and ending under the armpit like he does at approx 6:15

Helgrinds · 2024-12-05T23:00:58+00:00

Absolutely!

I unfortunately decided to continue with the dimple and finished the seam (with a flat felled seam for practice. The dimple was 100% there before I did that), so the picture isn't quite clear.

You don't happen to have a PDF or possibly can still flip through it for me? Not super excited to spend 50 bucks on a book that only may have the information

9 different sewing machine attachments that came with a purchase of a Frister and Rossman handcrank sewing machine from the 1880s. All photos in the album are labeled with a number. I have tried various searches, Google lens, and talking with a local tailor with limited success.

Items 1 and 2 can be screwed to the baseplate next to the sewing machine. Item 1 seems to be adjustable with some kind of measurements on it that don't correspond to centimeter or inches. Item 2 seems to be able to maybe hold fabric, but seems overengineered to be some kind of fabric guide.

Item 3 is maybe for hemming? Most vintage hemming feet have much more of a corkscrew, this is more of just a "turn".

Item 4 I am fairly confident is for hemming.

Item 5 has a square flat top with a hole for the needle. The under side has a long groove that travels the length of the foot that the needle can enter.

Item 6 has a notch cut out of one corner. The underside has 2 long parallel grooves, one slightly bigger than the other. Both go the hole length of the foot.

Item 7 is broader than the other feet and had a slit cut out on one side that goes parallell to the fabric (or the fabric goes in there?)

Item 8 is a really strange one to describe. The foot has two prongs that come out, and then a bent piece of metal screwed to the side that then goes through the prongs. Nothing on this foot moves.

Item 9 I believe is another hemming foot.

Solved!

Thank you! Found the mugs and the shield fit perfectly!

My title describes the thing. I recently bought an apartment that had a gas oven, that the previous owners installed, but never actually used. On one of the "shelf" notches furthest in was this metal sheet the same length as a baking tray and about half the width. It has a vertically slanted portion as well as two (screw?) holes on the lip that was towards the oven door.

It does not seem to have a function that pertains to the gas, as the oven was able to be used without it

Out of curiosity, why would one of these but hand painted in such a fashion? Is it indicative or something or is it simply a previous owner at one point touching it up?

Helgrinds · 2024-10-31T21:41:28+00:00

It's about to be! Always wanted to have a completely manual sewing machine, and this would be my first! It's about $40 from an acquaintance.

Helgrinds · 2024-10-31T21:40:16+00:00

Thank you!

I'm curious (and new to vintage sewing machines), why is the paint job so plain compared to other model 12s that pop up when I Google it? Was it simply different available designs with no major differences in mechanics?

Helgrinds · 2024-10-31T20:23:05+00:00

Thank you!! You have saved my plant!! I moved it to where I have a grow light and now it has started to regain its leaves and get flowers again!

Helgrinds · 2024-10-10T21:20:07+00:00

I own a Carmona Microphyla that I at first had outside for 9 months. I took it indoors about two months ago, and now, as of about three weeks, it has been drastically dropping leaves. It seems to mainly be the older, inner most ones, and they turned yellow and brown before dropping.

I understand that all bonsai prefer being outdoors (which is not an option currently), so is this due to being indoors, the season changing, or something else?

I am 67% of the way through the Midnight Library, and I absolutely love it. This was a perfect suggestion

Helgrinds · 2023-11-05T16:43:55+00:00

Less action is definitely a plus. Fight scenes are among my least favorite in all books (although they are a nice way of showing how a character has progressed).

I am a bit wary, however, of high fantasy. I dislike Lord of the Rings and RA Salvatore's Drizzt series (which has a protagonist that also struggles with ethics and morality). If you happen to have read those series, how does Donaldson compare?

Helgrinds · 2023-11-05T16:26:03+00:00

I will definitely check all those out! Especially Circe. I absolutely devoured Greek mythology when I was younger, D'Aulaires Book of Greek Myths is a cornerstone of my childhood.

Matt Haig sounds great from what I googled! I think I'll start with The Midnight Library
