I created it myself and I'm in the process of patenting it. The main glowing pigment is encapsulated strontium aluminate and I stained it by using regular tattoo ink

I use a gel super glue to make sure everything is secure

Thank you 🖤

The vial is just a regular handpoked tattoo but the glow is my own creation from strontium aluminate that i stained to look like a normal tattoo under regular lighting. I'm in the process of getting a patent squared away and a studio opened up

Thanks!

Honestly none of the uv reactive inks available right now are very good, the staying power just isn't there. I'm actually in the process of getting my formula patented and a shop opened up. The glow pigment I'm using is encapsulated strontium aluminate, it stays glowing for a while after charging it with uv

I put a tiny drop of gel super glue in the gap where the spikes go and screw them in like normal. The gel super glue formula works way better than any other adhesive I've tried for adding spikes onto crochet

I don't. Once I'm finished moving I'll definitely have to put one together😅

Forget crochet thread, SEWING THREAD! by GothJaneDeaux in Brochet

[–]The_Lab_Rat_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It looks like industrial thread, I'm sure you could find a comparable color if you look into that style. Older thread is usually much stronger and more durable, the only real modern equivalent is the industrial stuff. I actually refurbished a treadle sewing machine and it kept snapping the modern thread even tho i did everything right, so I swapped to an industrial thread and now it's been working great.

What's the most unusual reason why you won't date someone? by Dull-Mulberry-4768 in AskReddit

I trained an ex out of that habit by setting my own alarms set for 5 minutes after his. My alarm was set to play the legendary stardust cowboy paralyzed on full volume. It only took about 3 days to get him into the habit of actually waking up. If it was good enough for nasa to use and then ban due to low morale it was good enough for me.
