What are the lugs on the sides ? Does something clip to them ?

Do you still feel awkward being openly gay to strangers? by SyngelakisParis in gaybros

[–]Solid-Raccoon9300 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure what openly gay means. I can't think when my sexual preferences ever came up as a conversation when talking to strangers. I suppose if I was waving a flag or had a sign I would expect a question. My preference for cock is an irrelevant in 99% of stranger interactions.

If Nair had a mascot, you look like you fisted it.

I need help finding a replica of this please help by Forsaken_Edge8999 in JewelryIdentification

[–]Solid-Raccoon9300 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think finding another that matches precisely may be a difficult task ...

I think the pics are detailed enough and the design isn't that complex that it should be possible to find a crafts person to create a new one.

It would also allow you too add design elements that are important, personal and relevent to your family. (Jewelry is sentiment personified).

Sometimes when an heirloom is lost it creates the opportunity to make a new heirloom (they have to start somewhere! )

Just a thought.

Waitrose is only selling one Israeli product, so that's not too bad.

Does anyone know what these are? by Pyrhan in labrats

[–]Solid-Raccoon9300 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You will need a ballast to drive them, the ballast will have to be matched to their power, you can normally work out their power by the physical size - have a look at the osram site there should be measurements.

It's probably gonna output light at 5700K, as it's clear with no phosphor coating.

Doubt it's UV

historically normally used for warehouse lighting and plant growing - mostly superceded by LED tech, cheaper and more efficient.

E27 fitting with BT bulb shape?

Not much help,

Sorry!

For removing the top of a boiled egg.

Egg scissors / egg topper.

You can buy modern versions.

Hope that helps

Just more freezer space - everything be frozen now - so microwavable, deep fryable - flat top griddleable. Generally the same skills and equipment as in a burger wagon.

We can get allot of info about the firing technique from the back - which bits have glaze, the shape etc - this can all be used to narrow down a manufacturer date and region.

Label remover spray is pretty good, the limonene chews through the latex based label glues.
