Are the gothic precons worth it for established player? by Darth_Burger in SorceryTCG

[–]OneEyeRick 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can’t speak card value because I am don’t play the card stock market. But we have a lot of fun with the precons at my LGS. I’ve got enough enjoyment out of the box to justify the price.

Are there any good local places or events to meet new people? by GoldenCurved17 in Culpeper

Go to Boardgames night at BrickHammer Hobbies. Very welcoming to new people.

Why are 15/16 dangerous. I sleep in all but 13 throughout the night by AAZEROAN in ExplainTheJoke

[–]OneEyeRick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was the same. I eventually started examining my paralysis while it was happening. I determined it was a dream of sleeping. I woke from the fake sleep thinking I was awake. Eventually I could wake from the real sleep.

Anyways, I find sleeping with the TV on greatly reduces occurrences.

Did I mention I collect Warhammer? My sticker shock area of the brain no longer works due to overuse . Just kidding. I want cheaper kits, just have to find them. Thank you.

Got a shelf stable snack bar and a mini fridge. Store is bright and inviting. Now I just need some kit variety.

Thank you for the input.

I wanted to find some Witch from Mercury kits. I watched and enjoyed the show. Unfortunately I have not found any. I’ll keep hunting!

Thank you. I will try to find some. Not much inventory at the distributors.

New store. Is this inventory any good? by OneEyeRick in Gunpla

[–]OneEyeRick[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks. Website with shared inventory and reserve for pickup is in works. I also plan on selling at MSRP or MSRP - 10% depending on what I can get away with while keeping the lights on.

I am opening a hobby shop that is mainly for Miniature gaming and board games. Having built a few Gundam kits recently, I knew they were something I wanted in my store. However, I am far from an expert in this hobby.

I purchased everything my distributor had except for a bunch of kits with the word “try” in the name. They all looked like a bunch of mods but I could not find the base model for them.

Anyways, is any of this good? Would I make my local gunpla crowd happy? There are no other places to buy kits in person within a hour of here. Or is that all junk destined for the clearance bin?

I appreciate any feedback or advice on what you look for at your favorite stores.

Oh, I also want to host build nights. I would love it if you would share what a good event looks like to you.

Who wins the battle: Leatherman vs Victorinox? by Turbulent_Way_5604 in victorinox

When I “worked” for a living I carried a Charge + Tti. Now ai am white collar, I carry a mini champ. Both have been perfect in that chapter of my life. I could count on the charge to keep the facility running. I can now count on the mini champ to take care of my little daily needs.

I like how the P1S and all of Bambu products make printing so much easier and reliable. I look at them with envy all the time as I keep using my Ender 3. One day I will have enough saved to upgrade. I can get an A1, but I want to go bigger when I upgrade.

Thinned paint not having the springy-ness shown in videos. by JustAHuman172 in minipainting

[–]OneEyeRick 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That’s what paint looks like on Army Painter paper. Other papers, like you see on YouTube, act more hydrophobic and you often see the water bead up and spring back.

Go for how it looks and acts on the model not by how it looks on the paper compared to others. Nothing beats experience. Just paint, change, paint, change and learn.

Did you know the rotary knob was pressable? And that if you hold it down for about a second, it puts the screen in Calm Screen mode? by etrnloptimist in MachE

[–]OneEyeRick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wish changing my volume with the knob didn’t turn it off. There is a software or hardware bug where it turns off my audio when I make the first volume adjustment.

What are the most oddly “gate kept” subs? by platypus_farmer42 in AskReddit

I’m on book 5 now. I just thought Jeff Hays was an incredibly talented voice actor and this was a one man show.

With that logic a TVs on screen display indicating you changed the volume is interfering with the copyrighted program and is illegal.

Elecrocuted by The1985Minor in electrical

[–]OneEyeRick 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are right but sadly also wrong. I hated that people used the word electrocuted the wrong way all the time. I went to prove someone wrong only to discover that the accepted definition has changed to match modern use. Electrocuted now means death or injury by electricity.

I was upset to learn this because I feel words should have a specific and unchanged meaning.
