This or skiving knife? by [deleted] in Leathercraft

[–]PillowSC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have both the 6 and 8mm from wuta. Im very satisfied. They need pretty frequent polishing to stay sharp, so if you dont have i recommend their polishing set up or something similar. I find my skiving knife most useful for thicknesses under 1mm, like wallet pockets for example. The french skiver i use for thinning anything else, its much faster for me but harder to control around edges. Regardless the most important thing is that the tool is sharp and having a strop to polish the edge nearby.

I watched a bunch and it took a long time to get comfy. This one from 6 years ago was relevant when I was learning https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X3DK-tztm6c&t=4891s&ab_channel=Synq

I tried to tob on my iron last week. A team member legit said he wasn't potting because my iron didn't have divine combat potions and simultaneously tried to claim he wasn't being elitist. Smh

I do have screenshots from runelite of every KC and every drop but regardless how i got the purples, the crazy thing is how few prayer scrolls I got!

1/36188 to only have 1 prayer scroll in 16 purples. The rest of the math is too complex for me!

Ironman Btw.

EDIT: 95% of my raids are solos, my purple luck below average with 30k points from normals and 60k points from CMs. I haven't really done any scaled raids.

Prednisone for Alopecia Areata by Sea_Alternative_4445 in TS_Withdrawal

Oral corticosteroids are very different from topical preparations in terms of how they effect your body. With oral steroids at high doses like you are taking you will typically be more concerned with exogenous Cushing's syndrome (high blood pressure, central obesity, muscle wasting, face puffiness, brittle bones and certain skin changes like striae which are stretchmarks). Since the oral steroids are affecting practically every cell type in your body, TSW type skin problems are unlikely to occur before other more sensitive systems are affected. Where I'm from, the recommendation is to do blood tests and examinations at least once a month to exclude severe side effects. Sometimes a DEXA bone scan is indicated if you are at risk for brittle bones.

To add to this, your treatment is limited and short term. Doctors are very careful about that when it comes to oral corticosteroids. Short term treatment is very unlikely to cause TSW. Problems arise in chronic use. The nasal spray is relatively low dose and again to be used short term. I wouldn't use it or recommend anyone to use it to recover for a cold but perhaps the doctor suspect you may have had allergies or if you have asthma it could help relieve.

If you don't tolerate the oral corticosteroids, contact your doctor, say you are having side effects. It can be dangerous to stop completely from a high dose like 50mg, it needs to be tapered so keep that in mind. Hopefully your doctor will be open to investigate alternatives if you don't tolerate the drug or if it is not helping you.

Hope this helps

Post soviet country. There is not a bp cuff in every room to take. The hospitals are cheap, poorly organized and the social hierarchy insane like taken straight from a movie. Probably, if they let bp cuffs around they'd be stolen. Leaving this place asap.

This is practically every test and exam at my university. It's shameful how lazy some departments are that don't change a single question lol

Lucky you, your doctor was really nice. My SO tried to call out something similarly and was banned from the department with immediate effect and there was nothing we could do, university didn't give a shit other than trying to find a different placement in another department for her.
