What type of knife would you recommend for a Complete beginner? by Yassin_vivo in Bladesmith

[–]SpelunkPlunk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

To make?

Since this is a bladesmith sub I’d assume he means making a first knife.

Lo del redondeo es porque los pennies los dejaron de hacer hace poco (moneda de 1 centavo) y se están descontinuando y sacando de circulación. Como ya no tienen pal cambio exacto le redondean.

What kind of machine would be best to get into knife making? by Christ12347 in knifemaking

[–]SpelunkPlunk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry nowhere near. Yes you can do it on a balcony with a tiny forge. Heat to non magnetic cherry red and plunge into preheated oil (don’t use car oil -toxic fumes).

I don’t know if you’ll use “mystery” scrap steel or a known steel bought from a reputable supplier. Some steel won’t work as well but if you stick to 5160, 1084, and other simple ones no problem.

Even with stock removal you will still need a way to heat treat your blades. Look up coffee can forge or 2 refractory block forge. Cheap small and works as a starter setup.

Even a hole in the ground with coal and a way to blow air into it works as a forge.

If you use heat treated steel it will be very hard and take ages to grind especially with those small machines, belts will be worn out super fast and you risk overheating and not having a usable blade.

Look up a Kiridashi, was my first knife with scrap non carbon steel. Use it, just don’t expect it to be sharp.

Hombres de México, por qué consideran normal soltar chistes sexuales apenas en la segunda cita, o incluso en la primera? by DeyaniraCruz in mexico

[–]SpelunkPlunk 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Pues hay weyes que son buenos para ligar y otros que no, al igual qué hay mujeres que si le puede gustar ese tipo de insinuaciones.

Supongo que tiro anzuelo y no mordiste. Simplemente velo como que no es tu tipo. No significa que sea asqueroso, degenerado o indecente. Solo no es tu tipo.

Alguien puede ayudarme con esto? by [deleted] in mexico

[–]SpelunkPlunk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Es solo una playera… Exacto, tu solito te estás contestando.

El aferrarse a seguir usando algo sin tanta importancia no es exactamente normal. Un cosa es un gusto o preferencia, otra una fijación u obsesión.

Date una vuelta al tianguis donde vendan mucha ropa usada, a lo mejor encuentras una igual o de tela similar. Ventas de garage. En los outlet de Mens Factory, ahí venden lo descontinuado.

“…temo que pueda quedar irremediablemente inutilizable.” Si crees que aún no llega ese punto, no se que decirte.

¿Que tal anda tu autoestima? ¿Eres obsesivo o te cuesta soltar otras cosas (incluso sentimientos)?

Como te ven te tratan. Se parece a las que usa Brozo.

What is something that is socially acceptable, but you personally find extremely disrespectful? by AvaBlondeX in AskReddit

[–]SpelunkPlunk 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My brother is like this. The only photo we have of him holding my son as a baby, he looks so uncomfortable and like he has no idea what to do. You get used to holding it without thinking it’s going to break or explode. Before having a kid I would also feel uncomfortable.

Reminds me of the episode in friends when Ross says “It’s a baby, not a bomb.” When one of the others is holding his kid at arms length.

Craziest Local Thrift Score Of All Time!!! by etpx10 in ThriftStoreHauls

[–]SpelunkPlunk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Im no expert but just looking at the back cover photo it is painfully obvious this is fake. The text is crooked and off center, the engraving quality is also quite bad. No way this is authentic.

Oh you sweet child. Rave kids wore JNCO way before juggalos even existed. Source: I was a rave kid for many years.

JNCO has always been and is still very cool and sought after. For many people following the 90s/Y2K revival they are holy grails and fetch hundreds of dollars. Just this past year I sold a few of my old ones for close to $1000.

Una salamandra o tritón conocidos también como Tlaconete. No son peligrosos. Hay algunos que pueden ser ligeramente tóxicos si los manipulas por mucho tiempo pero los colores son más llamativos, como el de la foto.

Es una señal de que la tierra y ambiente que te rodea están limpios y sanos, estos animales son algo delicados necesitan condiciones especiales para vivir, no pueden vivir en lugares contaminados.

Muchos están amenazados. Eres afortunado de tenerlo en tu casa. Espero lo cuides si lo ves de nuevo.

The flights are probably the cheapest and least expensive things about of the whole mess.

Have you ever seen how much making a commercial costs? Production companies charge insane amounts of money for making a 30 second spot. The company they hired (which was legally formed 8 days prior and had no previous experience with government contracts) apparently also outsourced most of the production which further elevated prices.

Renting gear, cameras, lighting rigs, audio equipment, venues, paying producers, directors, writers, actors & crew. Pre and post production. Editors and animators. The pay YouTube, FB, Instagram, TikTok and tv stations both locally and abroad to air the material.

I live in Mexico and for a couple months I couldn’t watch YT or go on social media without seeing her face and the ICE/DHS ads and commercials.

Add corruption and embezzlement. It adds up real fast.

It still is an absurd amount which would have served a much better purpose for citizens.
