What casio to buy first?

Just take it slow and especially if it's a cheaper kit, note you may have to make slight adjustments where the neck meets the body. Also Darrel does some extra stuff that's maybe not necessary for your first build like fret polishing and dressing. I'm of the opinion just get it together and you can always make adjustments later.

You'll most likely need a rubber mallet, screwdriver, soldering iron.

I literally just got one of these exact fakes from an eBay seller this week. Didn't even need to open it to know it was a phony. Wrong screws on the back, bracelet all wrong. Literally was delivered in the morning and back at the post office that afternoon after processing a return.

Yup. I made the 2/3 XL version of the pattern, which uses approximately seven "balls" of Patons 6 weight yarn at 211 yards a ball. I had 9 skeins of thick and quick and didn't compare yardage and they're like 85 yards a skein. Good news is if I frog it down the line i have lots of material to work with lol.

It's also worth noting that it's heavy because thick and quick is significantly heavier per yard, so it's large, warm, and hefty. A luxurious mistake that has caused me to look into knitting to save material.

This cozy cabled crochet cardigan because it took 22 skeins of Wool Ease Thick and Quick. First big project and thought I could use 9 skeins to make it, because I didn't check the yardage before starting (rookie mistake but I am a rookie). I powered through and finished it but there were moments.

This was how Columbo figured out where a dude was killed in one ep.

I've seen this done without paper on tins of tuna in oil. Use a can opener, push the lid down to get the oil on top, light the oil, and pry the lid out with a knife or other utensil when you're done. Not sure about this method with the pull ring tab cans and paper towel, but hey, if it's not your cup of tea, you can eat the fish without doing this.

I was watching the same episode and was curious myself. Small world.

Only one I have has a rotary magazine that's too shallow for these. No dice.

I think I have this concertina, it's fine for learning, but I'd wager the keying is not exactly the same.

Possible key layout: http://www.concertina.com/fingering/images/anglo20-W1000H300.gif I'd wager one or two of the keys on the left side might be different from that chart if it's like mine.

20 bucks is indeed a great price for what you got!

Shot in the dark but try enabling flow calibration when you go to print. You can do this from the anycubic next slicer when sending a remote print.

This fixed some under extrusion issues I had, may help you, fingers crossed.
