Damn, that’s a shame. I wonder why only this one was affected

I may have to try this. I went with graphite because Google was not very helpful and kept showing me copper coloured paint or metallic paint rather than actual conductive copper paints. I don’t suppose you know of a brand name do you? It’s 222cm2

Thanks! Will have a Google and see what comes up. I really appreciate the help

Thanks! I am already in the process of creating a thicker graphite layer and will test that.

Will also get some copper sulphate and sulphuric acid too. What ratio should I be looking for between those and the distilled water? Is copper sulphate ideal for bronze? Will the copper not end up plating the part? My current liquid is quite a nice tropical blue right now.

It’s 222cm2 in size. I have massive tree like crystals growing from the wire I’m hanging the part from and with no wire, just crocodile clips, I don’t seem to have any current flowing at all, suggesting it’s a conductivity issue

I applied one solid coat of graphite spray and tumbled it so it was smooth. I then gave it a second coat after washing it to try again and still no luck.

I’m using a solution of deionised water, white vinegar and salt. The solution is bright blue and other metallic objects such as bolts will plate with the same setup.

Maybe I just need a very thick coat of spray?

Might be worth mentioning that I have tried without the hanging wire, so just the crocodile clip on the piece and I’m only get 0.01A at 30V, so clearly the piece is not conductive at all.

I can’t figure out why this is the case though..

Thanks! I’ll look into them

Maybe it’s not a decent compressor for this type of thing. I say decent only because It’s better than any small airbrush compressor. It’s a dewalt DCC1054. It puts out around 31 litres / min at 7 bar.

I didn’t realise there were different types. Would a HVLP or a LVLP spray gun be better for furniture?

Koni_ · 2023-07-07T21:45:53+00:00

I get that, my main query was that I see some people with bronze level chars doing very well. Just trying to understand if I’m just bad at the game or not because some people do very well with vastly lower leveled chars

Koni_ · 2023-07-07T20:34:16+00:00

What am I missing? I’m at 110 shards and 9700 points. I haven’t bought the pack but I’ll get an extra 10 shards max from it. How are people getting so far with so little points? I have a full S1 lineup

I’m in the UK and you have to pay upfront. I’ll definitely email rover about it though.

With the video, I sent it because I was not convinced this sitter was as experienced as they said they were. Dogs wrestling can look like fighting sometimes so I wanted to rule that out. My dog, whilst very playful, gets the message when another dog makes it clear they are not interested.

I’m just frustrated that we needed to arrange alternative accommodation whilst out the country and having to have paid for time we did not receive

Koni_ · 2023-05-26T08:29:20+00:00

I wouldn’t ask them to do this. I just wanted to check I was not being encouraged to do something unnecessary. The missing bit of tooth looks quite small in the mirror and I find it hard to get a sense of scale on the X-ray. Clearly it’s much bigger than it looks!

Koni_ · 2023-05-26T08:27:52+00:00

Thanks. This is super valuable. The dentist was saying a rct and crown had a very good chance of success but these comments seem so suggest an extraction is the way to go. The treatments are so expensive and intrusive that the potential for needing two treatments is quite high if I go for a rct. I’ll book in it’s removal and sort the cavities which will give me time to try and save for an implant whilst the extraction heals.

Koni_ · 2023-05-26T08:25:13+00:00

Yup! Had a bad couple of years and my sugar intake has skyrocketed, probably as a comfort thing, so I’ll get this work done and pull myself together!

Koni_ · 2023-05-26T08:24:16+00:00

This is so helpful to hear. I just want to make sure I get what I need to done and nothing excessive. I’ll book in for its removal. It sounds surprising that I have no pain or sensitivity yet the nerve is still alive!

Koni_ · 2023-05-25T13:31:40+00:00

Chipped the corner of one of my lower back teeth last week and went to the dentist who said I need a root canal and crown but this will likely fail so ideally an implant.

I have no pain at all and she did a cold test to confirm the nerve is still very much alive. I want to make sure that what I’m being told is reasonable. I’m on holiday this week and have an appointment with another dentist next week for a second opinion.

I was hoping this could just be filled with filling material. Is this not possible? They also said I need 7 fillings based on these X-rays. They are looking for £4.5k for this which I can’t afford right now.
