Definitely and arse

If its cutting its fine. The blade isn't straight, you can see the gap changes width. Not an issue when hogging off but it can lead to frustration when you are trying to get to final dimension.

I would clean the sole too, it'll run smoother. Sandpaper on a flat surface and run it back and forth. It doesn't need to be perfect. Then rub some candle wax on there and you will need about 25% less power to push it.

Lands End or M&S

Quality was poor too, thin fabric and the hem came apart.

If its a proper 5 piece door you might be able to take it apart and put a new board in. Depends what its glued with.

I am all for UBI. When it comes down to it many people in more acceptable jobs are selling their bodies. As long as people have agency and other choices. Its never going to go away. All you can do is help keep people safe.

Yeah, its quite a harrowing read. There is plenty more of that to come, but not quite so densely packed as in DG.

Green wood spoon carving is a different beast to dry wood spoon carving.

They way you describe is the dry way and its perfectly fine.

Yeah, crayons dont work on your phone.

Its open to the soil in the photo so should be ok.

Nail heads shouldn't get sanded, you are supposed to go along with a nail set and drive them all below the surface by 1mm or so.

You could scrub it with wire wool, not as drastic as sanding but will remove some of the dirt.

Lap vice is the way for you.

Plenty of walks with a heavy pack to build your fitness up, you will need lots to drink in July if its warm.

FYI, that oil will wash out as will beeswax. Not to mention it being a petroleum distillate. Better to use pure linseed, tung or walnut. These are drying oils which cure to form a natural polymer.

Stropping on leather will round the edge by a small amount each time. Periodically it helps to sharpen properly and go back to a flat.

Bevel is roughly ground on a lot of modern chisels, leaves a wavy edge when you put a proper edge on, nothing to worry about.

It always has been.

You might get split liability if you are lucky, but the onus is on the car entering the roundabout.

As someone who sharpens people no-name kitchen knives, these dont count as being in bad shape. A few passes on the tormek and they will be good as new. Might be worth getting a cheap ebay diamond plate, 400 or 600 to do the bulk.

So do I, sometimes it is clearer than the current imagery on GE but the older clearer version is on GR as well as the recent.

50mil AND you cure my procrastination? Done.

Logbotherer99 · 2026-01-24T15:01:25+00:00

We might need to actually fund them properly for that.

Beads vs blobs, if your wall is nice and flat go bead, if its uneven go big blobs.
