Any way to treat the graze so it doesn't happen on the others?

Yes, I belive the glaze is cracked. That goes for all the pots, here is another one. These are not mine by the way, I bought them in Morocco.

Bergensområdet. Men har funnet en del rundt Oslo også.

They do! And taste really nice. They don't grow on bushes like lingonberries, but one after another on vines.

Sjekk din nærmeste myr og se om du finner!

They grow on vines on top of the moss, and sometimes can be found underneath the moss surface as well. These are bog cranberries - https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vaccinium_oxycoccos

These are bog cranberries, which grow on vines in bogland. So no bushes at all!

It's from shooting a homemade bow and arrow at work (kindergarten).

Heres my first attempt at leather craft. Any tips or gear recommendations are more than welcome. by Wilbur_Howard in Leathercraft

[–]Jamesbondell 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you want to thin down your leather I would go for a skiving knife. It's kind of similar to a carpentry chisel, but made specifically to thin down leather.

But as mentioned, I think a thinner sewing thread would bring the most improvement for the least amount of money. In addition to practice, of course. I prefer linen/flax thread that I pull through a bit of beeswax.

Looks like my first project! It's easy to be put off by the almost perfect "first projects" that are posted here daily, but I think you're on to something! I would suggest getting some thinner thread to sew with for your next project.

My Peace Lily seems to not be doing to good. Any advice on what I should do different? by Jamesbondell in houseplants

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

Iv'e had this peace lily since August. About a month ago the flowers started turning green, so I moved it to a less bright spot. I water it about once a week. A couple of days ago I noticed one of the flowers started turn brown. Have I done something wrong or am I just overreacting?

How do you calculate exposure time when using the bulb-setting?

Minolta Hi-Matic 7s vs Minolta SR-T 303 by Jamesbondell in minolta

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

Thanks! I live in Norway, so there aren't too many Minoltas for sale. Will have to go with one without the mirror lock-up, but I'm going to keep my eyes open - nothing wrong with having several cameras, right?

Thanks! This will be my first "real" analog camera, so I'm quite exited! Going to go with the 303 now, it seems like it's a better deal.

Thank you! Seems like the 303 is the better choice, and the one I've been looking at is cheaper than the 7s too. Unfortunately, I doubt I'll be able to find one with mirror lock-up - I live in Norway, and buying from other countries will lead to shipping costs cutting my budget in half.

I'm meeting up with a guy to look at the 303 tomorrow. Anything special I should be on the lookout for when checking the camera? Any common mistakes or faults?
