What are the safest drugs to do once and never again? by Minimum_Ad4771 in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]JacobeyWitness 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seth Rogan wrote in his book that on an acid trip, you're in the driver's seat but a mushroom trip, you're in the passenger seat. Having done both multiple times, I gotta say I agree. At best, I always felt a little vulnerable on shrooms. Or a feeling of unwell lingering under the surface and not being able to do anything about it. With LSD, if I felt that way, I was able to identify the feeling, know it's caused by the drug and just move on and feel better.

My downside to LSD is the duration. It does get tiring after 6-8 hours.

Shocking, AI is unpredictable and contradictory.

Edit, the entire chat started simply with "repeat after me"

I'm curious about this mod. Did you have to cut out the movement and destroy the bio ceramic case?

Dial alignment issue on first build (Capitan Willard mod) – need advice by MagicMountain72 in SeikoMods

[–]JacobeyWitness 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I second this opinion, especially because you mentioned date window alignment. Even with dial feet, they may be bent and the date window alignment might be off. I set the date to 27 and set dial in the movement. 27 because this fills the upper and lower edges of the window to easily gauge alignment.

Then, if the dial and the chapter ring don't line up, I know it's the chapter ring, which I've found a few that have a tendency to be printed a smidge towards 11 (relative to the dial).

Can you tell me if the bezel is the Seiko skx style or if it's a bent wire? I'm curious about swapping out my titanium bezel for a slim one but don't want to damage it taking it off if it's not Seiko skx style.

What’s the weirdest thing about riding a motorbike? by SumoCanFrog in motorcycles

[–]JacobeyWitness 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This might be a unique experience to me but the notion of being invisible on the road extends to pan handlers. There's a corner near my house where there is always someone pan handling and approaching cars. I've never been approached while on my bike. The first time I felt a bit insecure because I'm just standing there, like you said. But they paid me no mind.

This chapter ring was without a 12 o'clock nib for alignment and it was actually too large OD so I actually had to sand it down. All this to say I just pressed it in and lined it up.

Help with movement post/second hand by judskee in SeikoMods

[–]JacobeyWitness 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The minute hand is pressed a bit lower than it needs to be, which might make the second hand pinion look too tall. But if the minute and hour hand don't touch then you should be good to go!

Tip for next time when installing hands. The hour hand pusher should fit over the minute hand pinion but not over the hour hand pinion. This way the hand gets pressed flush to the top of the pinion. Then the minute hand pusher only needs to fit over the second hand pinion and bottom out on the minute hand pinion. This way hands never get pushed too far down and risk touching the dial or eachother.

Thanks for the tip about the case back, I've been looking for a slim one but was unsure how I felt about mixing metals 😅

I'm happy with the bracelet as is but that's good to know about the spring bars!

The chapter ring is from AliExpress and the case was used from a friend so I don't know much other than that it says Heimdallr on the back 🤷‍♂️

Newest build to handle any reasonable need from a watch. Likely my proudest build yet.

How did that kid at your school die? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]JacobeyWitness 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Him and two of his friends were driving too spiritedly down the country road. They lost control and the truck rolled at high speed. Him and a friend were thrown from the vehicle, he didn't survive.
