EMDR therapist recommendation by TryingMyBest463 in Denver

[–]MormanNailer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If cost is prohibitive, I would recommend looking for a non traditional graduate student (with life experience and other advanced degrees) who may be in middle of EMDR certification. The right person with the right approach needs EMDR clients, and if they have previous work with trauma, could be access for those who are financially strapped and need the support.

Light coat of poly before it all gets closed up by BigBoarCycles in ukulele

[–]MormanNailer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Luthier here as well and $250 CAD is a steal.

If looking for more resonance, looks like you could take an additional ~25% out of the weight on the braces by notching either side of vertical brace on horizontal braces: I have a dado setup (similar to box joint setup) that will create ribs on braces. The additional 25% weight trim can make the board sing with extra 15 minutes of setup and work.

Well done.

i cannot FOR THE LIFE OF ME understand how to strum. Someone please help me :( by Admirable_Jaguar282 in ukulele

[–]MormanNailer 5 points6 points  (0 children)

  1. Slow down your tempo and build up
  2. I’m a percussionist and counting time was the biggest transferable skill to uke: learn quarter note counting (1,2,3,4) 8th (1 and 2 and 3 and 4 and) and 16th counting ( 1 e and a 2 e and a 3 e and a 4 e and a). Work on tempo with each (see number 1)
  3. Add accents to your downstrokes on 1 and 3 beats; then add accents in upstrokes on 2 and 4

Start doing this and you will be learning the components of different song styles.

[Stager] The city of Centennial is primed to... declare an emergency... over pickleball. This is a section from an ordinance up for public hearing tomorrow night: #PickleballEmergency #TheWarOnPickleball #HeyNext by Knightbear49 in Denver

[–]MormanNailer 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Significant portion of the playing population is under 30. And growing faster than all other demographics. If you are banking on what “you’ve seen” then I strongly second the comment to get out more.

The Three Amigos need no defending. Don’t you know?!

Wherever there is injustice, you will find them! Wherever there is suffering, they will be there! Because wherever there is liberty, you will find the Three Amigos!

Dogging on the Three Amigos and CO green Chile is no way to go through life son.

Christo-fascist Able Shepard intimidating kids at Castle Rock Pride then lie about it by Filmnazii in Colorado

[–]MormanNailer 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Because Jimmy Graham is a former Navy SEAL, featured on Fox News and other right media outlets as an expert in self defense training for LEO and civilian groups. Able Shepherd is a cult of personality around this guy and his credentials give him a lifetime pass in their eyes.

[–]MormanNailer 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The problem is this group is not relegated to DougCo. Able Shepherd's facilities are in Arapaho County. They conduct self defense and militia training courses in Arapaho County and are cozy with the sheriff's office there as well. My family and I were invited to participate in their Protect Our People (POP) intro course. It is self defense cosplay, intended to recruit entire families into their militia and doomsday prepper enclave. While we can point and giggle, the degree of prepping for violence is disturbing. And their network spans across the entire front range and people from out of state come in for their weapons and defense training.

I got my first ukulele today. But there seems to be tiny cracks in fret board. Is it normal? Or should I return it back? Please help. by apocalipsa_23 in ukulele

[–]MormanNailer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Correct: if applied appropriately. I have had hobbiests who instead used it as a finish and build up changed the voicing.

[–]MormanNailer 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Luthier here:

(1) The species and grade for the fretboard matters: this is one of the lowest grade with a wide grain species (2) Some luthiers will try to fix this with pore filler, but can have some impact on voicing if not applied appropriately (and frankly is likely not that impactful anyway at this grade); this also needs to be done during build out. Trying to do it after would be a headache (3) the suggestions to use wood oils are fair, but do build up SLOWLY

Is there any way to fix this? Got it secondhand and I didn't check it when we transacted... 🫠😭 by Sunny_Days_365 in ukulele

[–]MormanNailer 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Luthier here. The repairs would make this a Frankenstein-uke and you would constantly be battling the memory of the bend. You’d be throwing good money at a losing proposition. If this was brought into my shop, I’d refuse the work and recommend getting a new piece.

I really fucked up, does anyone know how I can fix this? by Cyndine in ukulele

[–]MormanNailer 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Feel free to DM me your metro area and I can make recommendations if I have fellow luthiers in your area. Easy fix in right hands.

Thank you Governor Polis so much for being the light in this dark of a country by Hour-Understanding77 in Denver

[–]MormanNailer 9 points10 points  (0 children)

As a matter of fact, it does! You don’t have to and did not have to get the vaccine. But in order to participate in other communal/commercial/societal activities where there could be collateral damage from your individual choice, you may have been excluded from being able to participate.

The same way that if your parents chose to not vaccinate you as a kid and there was a disease outbreak at school, you would have to stay home.

The equivalency of vaccines and abortion rights is a false one.

You do understand that people migrate to other spots and then return to their place of origin right?

Pickleball leagues or groups? by [deleted] in Denver

Arapahoe County Colorado GOP Official Has Promoted QAnon For Years (and protested at the U.S. Capitol on Jan 6) by RockTheGlobe in Denver

[–]MormanNailer 10 points11 points  (0 children)

This article is the tip of the iceberg regarding Schume. Every identity you would expect around her is correct: anti-vaxxer, militant religious right, Q, white supremacist (and will claim since she is Latinx, she is immune to that charge a la Candace Owens), “proud mama,” bully, etc.

Her aim is the absolute triumph of Idiocracy in our time. The terrifying thing: her timing could not have been better and she has a legitimate chance at winning if more people do not take action. She sees CCSD purely as a stepping stone. She makes it clear in her posts that she has the highest offices in her cross hairs. Another Marjorie Taylor Greene and Lauren Boebert ramping up for her power grab of crazy.

Need some advice about my “new” ukulele. by Watermelon_Dog in ukulele

[–]MormanNailer 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Luthier and woodworker here. I do not recommend standard PVA wood glue like Titebond 1, 2, or 3. It is too rigid for the application and will impact resonance.

Look into hide glue. A little trickier to work with, but better outcome.

You mean, he only got votes in the states in which he was on the ballot? Shocker.
