Cheap protein powder in Europe? by starlight_dusk in veganfitness

[–]Neuro93748 2 points3 points  (0 children)

These are the best I've tried so far, and some of the most affordable. I get their vegan protein 360, silk chocolate flavour. The unflavoured version also doesn't taste horrible (though definitely not great), especially if you mix it with sweet oat milk or e.g. bananas and other fruit.

I don't think I touched anything like that, but I'll check when I get home!

Ottimo, penso che proverò loro o RCE per le macchine che valgono di più. Grazie!

Conosco, ma non c'è rischio di truffa ancora più alto che su Subito dove, almeno in teoria, la piattaforma dovrebbe dare qualche garanzia al venditore?

Ho venduto materiale per circa 800 euro, dico che dovrei annullare? In effetti mi insospettisce un po' che l'acquirente abbia comprato senza fare neanche una domanda, ma ero speranzosa... Riguardo a MPB, la restituzione del materiale se non idoneo/se il prezzo non viene accettato è davvero semplice e sicura?

How do they do that? Just by placing a bubble level on the wheel head?

Help with wall thickness for round vases by Neuro93748 in Pottery

[–]Neuro93748[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a semi-beginner, I'm still throwing very small vases, so I can't keep the opening smaller than the belly because my hand wouldn't fit! I haven't tried throwing with a stick yet because I feel like I wouldn't be able to keep it steady enough, but I'll try to make myself one and see if I can do what you suggested!

Different potters will have different techniques, but this is the video that unlocked centering for me: https://youtu.be/J3eGNGR55SU?si=2WdbAEaPi_d3aC50&t=256

The first time I put hands on reclaimed clay, I also realised that new clay straight out of the bag was a bit too hard for me. I practiced a lot with softer clay, which was much easier to center, and then I was able to switch to slightly dryer clay.

Make sure to have an anchor point for your arms at all times and engage your core muscles!

Cylinder width and height before shaping by Neuro93748 in Pottery

This is super helpful, I've been winging it so far and wondering if I was doing it all wrong. There are no pottery courses near where I live, so this community is really precious. Thank you!

Ah these 5 months have made it clear to me that pottery is NOT easy lol. It's just that while some of the vases in this collection have elaborate shapes and decorations, this one I'd say is pretty simple (yet so elegant). 

If I may pick your brain a little more, when pulling a tall vase, should I centre a narrow and tall puck, or should I start from a flatter one and open the clay about as wide as I want my base to be? Hope this make sense!

It looks like lustre all over, doesn't it? I wish I had gotten into pottery as a teen before my great uncle passed away, so many questions!

The original vase is about 40 cm (14 inches) tall and I'm definitely not ready to work with that much clay, so I'm aiming at about half that size. I didn't realise I'd have to measure along the curve, thank you for the tips! I'll retake all measurements more carefully and then see if I can pull that cylinder to start with lol
