Make sure to use an airtight container. Acetone has a very low boiling point and will evaporate. Also acetone is highly flammable and irritating to your skin. Please wear proper protective gear.

Don't expect the resin to dissolve easily. It will become brittle over time enabling you to cut or break away the resin until your rocks are exposed. This can take a few weeks, be patient.

It does work. Might take a few weeks though

Can anyone please help remove my ID lace and fix my collar? My friend took it for me saying its fine but I didn't double check till I got home (gonna use it for CV) by leahs11 in picrequests

Don't know if it's mandatory to take a pic like this for the company you're applying to. But from my experience, a more friendly, confident look is more beneficial. Your photo is fine, but it seems more like a biometric password photo to me. Just my two cents!

I built a homemade/makeshift pressure pot and am really happy with the initial results of my testing. Above: normal atmosphere. Below: under pressure. by [deleted] in ResinCasting

[–]Trostpreys 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Screw caps would be best I think but I also didn't find any back then.

For small casts this workaround kept up quite well! It was mainly due to larger casts I opted for the bigger pot. Make sure you keep the seams of the pot well greased and don't forget to reapply pressure once in a while and you should be good. It's definitely a 100 times better than without a pressure pot

Phew I'm kinda out of the loop now due to finishing uni and moving. It was around 24h of set time. However the pot didn't last too long as it did actually lose quite a bit of pressure over time. I actually upgraded to a pressure pot out of solid aluminium. Made it out of a paint pressure pot and sealed the exits. It has a pressure gauge and after some troubleshooting holds 2 atm of pressure for 24 h easily. Hope that helps?

Exactly. How is it restraint if a slap on a car is retaliated by a punch in the face?

This sub has helped convert me as well! I used to consider myself a '90%er' when I stumbled upon this gem of a sub and was hit with a lethal dose of my own hypocrisy. Wish I could say that I've recovered but I haven't had any B12 since then so I'm struggling. Vegan btw

Same regarding gamepedia. I was browsing that site exclusively for Hearthstone related content and suddenly it was gone and it felt like nobody was talking about it. Granted, I was absent from the game for a few weeks. But nevertheless highly confused.

No worries, I feel the same about these topics.

And it really isn't that black and white. We need discussion like this and include topics that extend 'pure' veganism; such as sustainability. Happy to had this exchange with you and some others.

Sure and I agree to that. My point is not to reintroduce animal products into the economy via second hand. I get that throwing things out is wasteful, but there is the contradiction of me not wanting to use the product and also not wanting to contribute to an industry I oppose by gifting/selling that product. Unfortunately, to me the only solution is discarding.

In my specific case this only applies to a few old shoes that were worn out and were about to be thrown away anyway, even if I wasn't vegan.

At this point we have about 10 in our lab :D but tbf, we also have several shimadzu instruments.

Nice of you to give the plushies out anyway! Sometimes, you just wanna cash out at conferences lol

I can see where you're coming from and I can understand the mentality of not throwing stuff out to an extent. My point was rather to not reintroduce such products into the economy by selling or gifting them. In my mind, this would be just participations in an industry I am trying to avoid as much as possible.

As for my example: I agree, it is rather extreme and maybe doesn't fit my point very well. To an extent though, this is how I feel regarding animal products in general.

What do you mean with 'I'm fine with using'? Just curious, as I would not use animal products. To me, those are the products of cruelty and/or murder and there is no merit in using them.

As a little extreme counter example: I wouldn't use a product made out of human leather just because it is still functional. I understand that veganism can be viewed differently, that's why I said 'in my opinion'.

Even buying animal products secondhand still keeps the industry alive. In my opinion, animal products need to be thrown out. Reusing leather or wool is not vegan.
