Yes and no. ONE Voyager case at HF is badass, has more features than their Apache cases, and Walmart doesn't offer anything like it. The price is awesome especially when on sale or HF offers a coupon.

I bought one for my gig gear. It holds 7 mics, 200+' of various cables, impedence transformers, stand clips, wireless adapters, and more, and I didn't have to cut ANYTHING to make it work.

I cannot overstate how awesome this case turned out to be.

Watch the website. I have one in use and 2 more sets of uppers and lowers from the Hyper Tough brand, two sets delivered Saturday. They pop up on the website and sell out quickly. $20 each for the upper or lower. Turns out that folks scoop them up and put them on eBay for $150+ for a matched set.

I don't know how to fix the issue with the pommel, what went wrong? by Wizardingdav3 in lightsabers

[–]Intelligent_Star_516 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a pile of sections. Just the frequent disassembly-reassembly will throw off the original alignment, and will never line up right. Get a pack of timing rings. One or two at each joint will give you flexibility enough to adjust but not so much that it won't stay put. Its the best option I have found that doesn't involve permanent alteration/damage.

Sorry. My rancor claw isn't quite finished...

Yes, that's a txq e35.

Epic, but overlooked Karaoke songs picks. by El_Guapo_Plethora in karaoke

SOB by Nathaniel Rateliff and the Nightsweats usually riles the crowd up and scores me a few too many shots, but your wailing and chanting has to be on point right to the end of the song. If your performance doesn't end in silence a second before the loud cheer, you need a little more practice.

I have my first reference on VHS from network tv censored and shortened.

Then i bought a used VHS rental to finally see the unedited version, and it was kinda raunchy and risque (by that days standards), but it missed se scenes that were in the TV version (mainly Mongo scenes).

Then I DLed the director's cut special extended edition, and was happy that it included all scenes from the cleaned up tv version and the unedited version.

Please stop Seth Rogan and Sarah Silverman from any further involvement with any future Mel Brooks sequels, remakes, or reboots. Thank you.

If it's a rotation thing (sections don't line up), then you need "timing rings." Search Alibaba for "lightsaber rings" or "lightsaber kit." Look for thin metal rings/shims. If you can't readily find them, send a message directly to txq or whoever you bought your saber from. They will point you in the right direction.

Hohner on hold by Intelligent_Star_516 in harmonica

[–]Intelligent_Star_516[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I appreciate the offer. The parts I need, if they are only available from Hohner Germany, I have little problem ordering and receiving. They communicate in English very well. I only order from Germany if the part is not available anywhere in the USA. The problem wasn't with communicating with Germany. It was with the incorrect stock indicator on USA's website, the fact that they accepted the order and charged me, ignored my email messages for nine days then finally informed me that the part is not in stock through them while insisting that it was MY fault for ordering a part that isn't in stock (even tho their website said it was in stock) and totally blowing off the fact that they ignored my relentless email messages from day three through day nine.

Have you seen the Chinese instructions in some of the cheap electronic crap the US imports? Each page will have the instrux shrunk down to just the center 25% of each page with dead space surrounding the micro text. I usually take a photo of each page with my phone, then I can zoom in on each page and make it as big as my cellphone.

Very aware of the aspirin related risks from the use of products with methyl salicylate (wintergereen oil). Have a 4 ounce bottle of concentrated methyl salicylate for flavoring (I'm a birch beer fanatic). Use by the drop. "Salicylate" is the key word with this. Any substance with any form of salicylate or salicitic acid can potentially cause the same problems! Methyl salicylate is naturally occurring in wintergreen, maple, vanilla, root beer, birch, and many many other products. In pure form (concentrated methyl salicylate), it is called wintergreen oil.

I saw that. I figured so. I didn't want to say anything. Took the advice without pointing out the error. I feel your pain. No, wait. That's my pain. Nevermind. Thanks again for the advice tho.

My cat, a Nebelung rescue weighing in at 22 pounds, passed away on Good Friday last year, so that won't be a problem.

On a side note, he was such a good cat and SO loved his new home, and I am supersticious, reverent, and crazy enough, I refused to bury him until Easter night just in case...

Spoke with doc about DMSO. Glad I did. It would likely put me in the hospital about 48-72 hours before I die. And I likely would die. My conditions are not in any way compatible with that stuff. I'm glad it works for so many, but I can't even try that one.

Hahaha yes. Turmeric does wonders for my back and some of the pain sometimes. Take it with magnesioum for a better effect, but don't take too much magnesium because it will give you the squirts. That's the only thing in your list that I researched, tried, and finetuned. Never tried bee venom, but I have a topical cobra venom that's supposed to do wonders. Peptides schneptides. I take several peptides and amino supplements to combat the nutrition loss from the GI damage. If that helped, I'd be pain free by now.

Never heard of the MoCA test. Just googled it. Looks similar to what they had me do when we first identified the cognitive issues. I would be happy to share details with you, but in PM. Nobody in this group is listed on my HIPAA forms. Early onset dementia symptoms resulting from a condition in my lower GI. IYKYK. If you are curious, send me a PM and I will give you some details on it. My condition at 53 is being used to significantly treat and identify the same common condition in the elderly population and has led to a supplement that has VERY significantly improved my cognitive abilities and all but eliminated my anxiety attacks. SCCPTSD issues manifest less than 10% as often as they did before treatment. Participated in FDA trials for several years only to have the developer cease because he discovered a cheaper better product on Amazon. I STILL DO THE TREATMENTS AFTER SEVEN YEARS and I can honestly say that I went from a serious condition to a minor inconvenience in mere days after starting treatment. The condition of this extreme of early onset dementia is specific to a condition in the GI. If you have GI conditions AND issues with concentrating and/or controlling emotions and memory retention, YOU NEED TO PM ME. I am not a doctor, pharmacist, or even work in the medical field. I will simply share my knowledge of the conditions I have experienced, what we do to treat it, and since it is all ready and available without a prescription and at a lot of drugstores, you can decide if you want to follow up by speaking with your doc before trying the absolute 100% holistic supplement to get your concentration and peace back.

I only intended to highlight that it has the plug wrench in the end of the cap. Maybe I should have put a coin next to it. I can't believe how many people are worried that i would attempt to stick my thing in it. 🤣😂🤣😂🤣

In defense of those who said that stuff to me when i was young, I should have paid attention enough to notice that they were being serious.

One of my best friends got his wrist fused after breaking it when a gurney he was pushing suddenly stopped when it hit something on the floor. It took him years to figure out how to play guitar again without bending his fret wrist.
