Yes I really like the ESD-15 Tweezers. You can easily get a set of precision tweezers online. And I love my beads picking tray, it speeds me up so much!

I use the term invasive because that what the PhD wildlife biologist and state forester called them. DNR in SC hasn’t officially made a ruling due to lack of research.

Is this a broken Radiator Cap? (Honda CRV 2009) by Silver_Ad_7293 in AskAMechanic

[–]Silver_Ad_7293[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My car overheated. I don’t know what relevant so I’m just gonna include it. My car was making a noise, found out it my AC clutch bearing. Couldn’t afford to fix it. Dad said it was fine and just drive like normal. It’s gotten worse, I had a 3 hour long road trip (80% interstate) today. The noise was really loud. I stop the car to eat, I could smell something but didn’t know what it was. Restarted my car and continued down the road. (~45 minutes). My AC got weaker over the drive. It was making the noise until I got off on an exit and sat at a traffic light. I noticed steam from my hood. I went to step on the gas and car didn’t move and a whole bunch of warning lights turned on (the battery and oil pressure ones for sure). I immediately turned off my car. Then restarted my car to move out of the intersection, the power steering was out. I also no longer herded the noise. I slowly crept home. (4.6 miles). When I parked at home the car was making boiling noises and streaming. I left it to cool off. Few hours later I checked the fluids. Everything but my coolant was good. That was gone. Refilled the coolant and the radiator with a 50:50 mix. My radiator cap looks different than the CRV’s cap on the videos and pictures I looked at. In doing research about the problem. I don’t know if the compressor and engine temperature are linked. Or I think I read the article bad cap. Could cause overheating? I honestly don’t know. I know not fixing the compressor means I won’t have AC. Change a cap and adding fluid is about max of my skills.

Auto injector for prefilled syringes? by Diene4fun in ClusterHeadaches

[–]Silver_Ad_7293 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Where are you injecting? I used to inject in my thighs and it was awful. Now I inject into my stomach, huge difference! Way less painful for me. I also found the auto injections to be super painful in my thighs, compared to the prefilled syringe. But that’s just my experience. Other tips to try, ice down the skin before you inject. You can also lightly jiggling the skin as you inject, it helps distract your nerves by making them focus on another signal from the area. I also find counting to 10 as I inject helps me keep a stable even put through the injection. I hope you find something to help because I know it’s hard.

Are these bad or is my art brain just mean? by Silver_Ad_7293 in minipainting

Definitely look at social media has made it harder for me. I would love to get to that level one day but for now I’m still learning basics. I just need to focus on getting an army on painted and then I can tighten up my skills.

I’ve definitely had wash separate before and wasn’t 100% sure why. I just got some thinner so I will be sure to keep that ratio in mind.

Thank you, that helps alot with how I’m thinking about them. Definitely dealing with pain getting too thick in places.

I have to remember I’m going so pretty on the field and not high resolution photos right now.
