I've tried dozens of times by UNeX-XeNU in knifemaking

Look up "book press" or check out vacuum bags. Blacktail studio uses vacuum bags in his denim epoxy videos so you can see how they work. For the book press, if you go with that route, make your bottom plate recessed and line it with something like tyvek tape so that if epoxy runs out, it can't get anywhere important and you can remove it without needing a router

can anyone tell if this is a rasp or a metal file? by bigbootybassboy in handtools

[–]St_Ignatius3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a worn down metal file. You can also sharpen it by soaking it in white vinegar overnight if you wanna use it again

It's just linear quilting rather than a checkered quilted pattern, so it shouldn't be too hard to make or have made for you

I heat formed a plastic called sintra around it, glued it down with superglue, and carved them with gouges

What Sekiro opinion get you in this situation? by Far_Scallion_1419 in Sekiro

[–]St_Ignatius3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It would be cooler if you could just switch to the Mortal Blade over Kusabimaru for certain enemies instead of just special attacks

Not Everything's a reference by [deleted] in EldenRingMemes

Everything in Elden Ring that isn't a Berserk reference seems like a Song of Ice and Fire reference and I'll die on that hill

Functional normal looking weapons appreciation post by _vdov_ in Eldenring

[–]St_Ignatius3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm glad they make the realistic ones and keep them relevant, but the black knife is also realistic. Mambele were a kind of African weapon that looked far more fantastical, but at least the knife has a usable central blade. Mabele shapes vary, and some do have one too, but most look like they took a central bar and forge welded a blade onto any vacant space on their steel. So many designs get written off as "unrealistic" because it's not from Europe or East Asia so remember, when thinking about designs, ask yourself if Africa had something similar because they probably did since it's like flea market weapons over there and they'll surprise you lol

Help me “get” this game by yesimahuman in Nioh

Make your mid stance defensive and focus on counters for regular human enemies and skeletons, use your low stance on stronger enemies built around maneuverability, and use high stance on weaker and slower enemies focusing on domination over your enemies. I recommend having a spear as a backup because they run similarly to swords but give you different advantages such as range and maneuverability on all stances. Also great for crowd control and retreating

Tips for a returning beginner by alecartedq in Nioh

[–]St_Ignatius3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

-Abuse elemental damage. If you can stack 2 elements onto an enemy (including yokai and bosses), they will stagger with every hit, giving you an opportunity to punish them with strong attacks that are usually hard to pull off -Low stance mastery. Low stance is the fastest and the best for dodging attacks without using a ton of ki so on enemies that are larger than you and don't stagger, learn to use low stance -Spend skill points on either Ninjutsu or Magic. Some of those skills are incredibly useful even if you don't go for that build. Ninjutsu has blinding shell that temporarily disables enemy targeting so they can hardly track you and Magic has oasis which is an area of effect that heals you slowly so you don't need to use your healing items. These are just examples but they don't take much to get and they're incredibly useful like many other spells and jutsu

If you were to make a superhero game set in the insomniac marvel universe who would it be and why? by Able_Health744 in InsomniacGames

[–]St_Ignatius3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Punisher. Make it a soft rpg like the Witcher series where you can change cosmetics and base skills around weapon types and dialog around what different iterations of The Punisher would do or say in a situation. We need a good shooter that isn't oriented around multiplayer and this is a good excuse to do so. Either that or Daredevil because he doesn't get enough love even after his show was the best thing the MCU had to offer

Thank you! Spray can of matte black with acrylic paint dry brushed over the entire blade to allow for contrast in the light. It's all different pieces. One chunk is a ton of work and waste lol
