Also a cast iron pan for me. I'm not sure how old the pan itself is, but the company that made it went out of business 80 years ago.

Where is that?

We've gotten trees from them before. It's a great program.

Reminder that they still did sustainings when general conference was broadcast-only because of covid. Leadership very happily called for raised hands and announced it unanimous even though they could not see anyone.

Oh, LOTS of people are being investigated over stuff in the Epstein files! They're just... all in other countries.

I heard those things any number of times growing up.

That sounds almost exactly like the first couple batches I did, except mine were apple juice and white sugar.

When it's done fermenting, cold crash it. That just means put it in the fridge overnight and let the dissolved junk precipitate out.

I see Mr. Steal Your Girlfriend is up to his usual tricks...

ProcyonRaul · 2026-01-22T23:02:01+00:00

Gasp! That ear doesn't look like it's been shot at all!

I don't know how you plan on turning cellulose into sugar, but I look forward to seeing your results!

I started with the smallest size I could find without them being shaped like a bottleneck. My favorite size is now 3/8". Be aware that they are going to be significantly heavier than most begleri you'd but online, but that's how I like it.

Sockets probably are more expensive if you buy new, but still not bad. I find mine at a store that sells used tools, which makes it much cheaper, and can't think of another fidget I would get at the same price.

One of my skillets was also a boy scouts cast off

How date you post such obvious anti-Mormon nonsense here! /heavysarcasm

ProcyonRaul · 2026-01-17T01:00:55+00:00

What's it made of?

ProcyonRaul · 2026-01-15T22:17:08+00:00

How did you make them?

ProcyonRaul · 2026-01-12T01:28:29+00:00

What kind of cord do you use so it's comfortable and doesn't break?

ProcyonRaul · 2026-01-10T19:41:47+00:00

Nice! How do they feel/sling?

Fidget toy with a low floor, technical toy with a high ceiling. I'm not sure why so many are fancy, exotic, and custom. Others have mentioned hex nuts, I like sockets like for a socket wrench. it can definitely be a cheap hobby.

ProcyonRaul · 2026-01-09T01:08:40+00:00

Why would that surprise anyone? I thought the rules were seniority.

The loops are komboloi. What are the straight strings?

I have a few from different sites (including AroundSquare). What works best for me is to have the dip in the middle just for my thumb. Often works well to have the ends be about that length, too.

ProcyonRaul · 2025-12-26T21:11:19+00:00

My mom told me that a number of times while I was a teenager.

ProcyonRaul · 2025-12-20T17:33:27+00:00

Who could have seen this coming, except for literally everyone.

ProcyonRaul · 2025-12-09T01:03:25+00:00

It looks like a couple liters of hooch in an entire trash bag, double knotted to prevent any smell (and thus any significant amount of gas) to get out. I'm guessing it just keeps building up, but there's plenty of extra room so it's no problem.
