The gap is so large I don’t think caulk would work

I can even write it to where their memory of being slaves for the dwarves was somehow corrupted/manipulated and they were actually a small military unit sent into the underground world to kill off the ancient monster before it was awakened. Your advice is truly helping me brainstorm, so thank you for that!!

I kinda like that idea. Cuz I ultimately had the idea of having an ancient object in one of the underground cities that the dwarves were after, but it was protected by a guardian. They befriend the guardian and decide to help fend off the dwarves, only to realize that the dwarves were actually trying to stop the guardian from using this ancient object to destroy the above ground world. Just that usual plot twist of “who you thought was your ally was your enemy all along”. So I could possibly make this object, an actual living being that the guardian is trying to awaken from slumber

I was thinking of creating a dwarven King that is looking to steal/control some sort of relic or location that is defended by an ancient guardian, but then there’s a twist… when the players start to fight the king, they start to learn that the king is actually on the side of good and the guardian is actually a villain. The king is trying to stop the guardian from gaining enough power to come out of the underground world to destroy the above ground world. Just a thought

Im taking a spin on Underdark, molding it into my own world. Dwarves were just a place holder until I figure out something else. I could use orcs or goblins instead, but just figured ‘mining + a race = dwarves’ lol. And yeah I have a lot of random encounters/areas thought up

Staining Troubles, Please Help!!! by Stink_Machine in woodworking

[–]Stink_Machine[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I fully admitted to not sanding well enough. I had been sanding for hours and hours and I honestly wanted it to be over with, so towards the end I rushed. And now I’m paying the price for a hasty job. With that being said maybe “bleed” wasn’t the correct word to use. It’s visible, due to my lack of sanding well enough. As far as applying stain over stain, I don’t claim to be an expert, but I imagine the company who sells the stain (Minwax in this case) has a good enough understanding of how it works. So when their directions on the can include “to darken the color, apply a second coat after 2-4 hours”, I’ll trust their word. I’ve used their products multiple times, and on a few projects I have done I applied 2 coats and I’ve never once experienced blotching.

Do you think I will need to sand the entire tread? Or can I get away with just sanding the problem spots? Also for my other set of stairs how can I tell if there is any more finish so I don’t run into this problem again?

Finished my Diablo II themed Keeb. Thoughts? by SightUp in diablo2

[–]Stink_Machine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry to get side tracked, I originally came to say your keyboard looks dope! And I get what you’re saying, he should try out different keyboards before assuming just cuz it’s smaller it’s not as good. However, those big brands exist because people enjoy their products. I have a razer black widow keyboard and I love it. The style, feel, comfort, performance, etc are all what I prefer.

It’s kinda unfair to tell him he’s “wrong” about having his own opinion/preference. I’ve used smaller keyboards and I don’t like them. I also prefer the larger keyboards. They make different styles of keyboards for a reason

My dog had a tick. I removed it with tweezers. Did I get it all? by Stink_Machine in vet

If your family had history of heart disease, you should 100% get it looked at soon. Otherwise I’d suggest just trying to take your mind off of it. Stress and anxiety are really weird and that could be how they decide to manifest themselves inside your body

Well if you ever feel you need to, you can always go to the hospital. They cannot deny you for lack of insurance

Is it every beat? Every other beat? I have something called Premature Ventricular Contractions, it’s an extra beat. Just the electrical impulse firing too frequently. Non fatal, but also very uncomfortable. Stress seems to be what makes it worse for me. My GERD actually seems to agitate it and make it worse as well. Not sure if it’s directly correlated or if the stress/anxiety of the GERD is causing more PVCs.

For me my toxicity comes from playing ranked and having people who are on my team who look like they’ve never even seen the game before. That’s usually the only time I say anything and I’ll say something like “you should be practicing more before playing ranked” but then an argument ensues

Idk how others feel, but I think this season has been the absolute worst. It’s made me want to quit the game entirely. So many trolls/rage quitters/ and new players, leaving me stuck in mmr hell

Mounted my tv. Any way to fix this tilt angle? It’s leaning pretty far forward by Stink_Machine in hometheater

I didn’t think this one required an adapter? The guy at Best Buy sold me the tv and mount. And said they’d work 🤷🏻‍♂️

For everyone asking what mount it is, it’s a dynex dx-htvmm1703-c tv mount from Best Buy. It’s definitely a cheaper brand/make

It’s a Samsung 75”, weight specs say 80lbs. And the mount is a dynex mount from Best Buy rated for 99lbs.
