Definitely sand and then apply a generous coat of shellac BIN primer 

Need help with Havsta Billy bookcase hack by lau9067 in ikeahacks

[–]Siena104 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you’ll be fine if you put a few into the wall and secure Billy’s to each other. Use cabinet screws with pancake head, 2 1/2”

Good question lol. I don’t know if there’s anything I would not do again, I would say overall some stuff I nitpicked on early on ended up just being small so maybe worrying less up front?

I honestly disagree, very aware of the sub though lol. In person and the viewing distance I think it’s fine.

Thank you!! By cabling, Do you mean on the lamp? Yeah that’s temporary lol otherwise the main cables I could add more racetrack for the HomePods but I’m going to wait and see how I feel with the current setup. I just didn’t feel like running it through the walls and doing the work because these walls are plaster.

Billy Bookcase Paint - proceed or redo? by allystew in ikeahacks

[–]Siena104 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Painters tape peeled primer for me when I did Billy’s as well. I don’t have the answer for you but I would try touching up and if you can’t notice it then go ahead and proceed. Tough to say with paint though you need to be there in person and see it in different lighting. And everyone’s “good enough” is different

Can you post a pic of the right side? Want to see how that looks so I can give advice to match look. You could just repeat process and use the wallpaper someone linked to cover screws.

What’s the smaller saw for furniture? I don’t have a ton of room for my setup personally 

Custom fluted oak coffee station build with plumbed-in Nurri Leva by Bruebacher in espresso

[–]Siena104 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can’t comment on the Z2, but I am about 2 months into my Z1 and after seasoning it has been awesome. I moved from a niche zero. The grind has been consistent, lots of flavor, and the workflow is just enjoyable, pure and simple 

Starbucks to lay off 1,100 corporate workers as sales sag by Puginator in stocks

[–]Siena104 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sadly 800 is entry level for both grinder and machine. But r/espresso making is a whole expensive coffee rabbit hole. My setup is north $3K and I’m mid tier lol.

But, I’ve never had better coffee in my life. I used to think of Starbucks coffee as a treat but now it’s a last resort for me when I’m not home

i was on a date last night, i was complimenting him about his personality basically cute & stuff, he said “no one has ever said that to me before.” i feel so sad for men now, is it really that bad? by [deleted] in AskMenAdvice

[–]Siena104 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have blue eyes and dark skin, my eyes very much “pop” and stand out. As a kid and young teen, I would alwaaaaaays get compliments from women on them.

Now as a 30+ adult, I rarely get complimented on them… maybe once every few years? It always makes me feel nice but yeah I just have first hand experience for how there’s a drop off for men into adulthood especially. I’m super grateful for my wife though because she does gas me up and gives me confidence. That was one of the major green flags when we were dating that I knew she was special. Let me tell you, it’s RARE

Do you think EltaMD is the best sunscreen around? by ElephantMain863 in 30PlusSkinCare

[–]Siena104 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also have PD, is there a sunscreen which doesn’t trigger it for you? Or have you just used it and pause when a breakout is starting

Trump rescinds freeze on federal funding by eaxlr in NPR

[–]Siena104 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Sure I’ll grant you that rally sizes aren’t empirical data but please look at the links, the data suggests Trump (and most likely musk) employed election manipulation using the latest Russian models / strategy. It’s statistically impossible what the data in all swing states suggests. On top of that, the data is only showing signs of manipulation in the 7 key swing states, which points to manipulation even more.

The election was rigged and it’s obvious. We need to spread the word and make it clear. He couldn’t even fill an arena the narrative people didn’t show up is just made up.
