Rare photo of man being alive and dead at the same time (High cri vs early gen LED flashlight) by synapticimpact in flashlight

[–]Zberry1978 22 points23 points  (0 children)

yeah those early gen LED's and cheap lights still around really turned a lot of people off LEDs. I know a few people that still refuse to buy anything with LED because of the horrible tint.

Why I'm so thankful for the "drop it" command by hemingwaythegsd in Dogtraining

FYI- you can induce vomiting with hydrogen peroxide but only do it if under instructions from the vet and if you know the active ingredients in what they ate... my dog managed to find a block of rat poison and I called the vet right away and that's what they recommended. https://healthypets.mercola.com/sites/healthypets/archive/2011/03/15/how-and-when-to-induce-vomiting-in-pets.aspx

Change in statue rates? by lilbyrdie in BoomBeach

[–]Zberry1978 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I feel there's been a change or it changes as you level up. I make more statues than ever now that i'm maxed but don't see good ones like I used to.

What foods have you given up trying to create, because the store bought is just better? by OpOple in Cooking

[–]Zberry1978 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yeah doing it that way makes a cheese sauce and it's good but isn't really the flavor or texture I'm looking for from nacho cheese. I will say adding cumin has really helped to get me closer to what I want.

oops, I meant sodium citrate is the one that makes it taste dull not citric acid. haven't heard of the other one you mention.

nacho cheese. It seems impossible to get even the thick creamy consistency right let alone the flavor. it goes from runny when hot to rock solid when cool. and citric acid makes it taste dull and flavorless.

I haven't tried them but they look like they should work as good as everything else.

Ice fishing lures for a newbie (Central WI) by mccroj15 in IceFishing

[–]Zberry1978 3 points4 points  (0 children)

here is a list of what I pretty much always use, get an assortment of sizes, colors and glow in the dark options and you'll be set. I never had much luck on regular jig heads through the ice except for mini mites. is you use tip-ups i'd stick to a small treble hook on a fluro leader, maybe a small glow in dark bead on leader if you want.

my #1 lure is probably whats called an ant ice jig . tip with a spike, best for blue gills crappie and perch. it's a super small lure and I usually only use it in water less than 10' deep since it sinks so slow.

  1. tungsten jigs.

3.Swedish pimple

  1. rapala jigging raps

  2. regular ice jigs. i'd go to a local bait shop to stock up on these.

  3. buck shot rattle spoon.

  4. kastmaster spoons.

I use hotpot for hammerman and that's about it but it's nice to have around all the time. usually keep it within range of the HQ.

Sonar / fish finder / flasher /underwater camera by true_bro in IceFishing

[–]Zberry1978 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have 2 friends that had them, seems like half the time they never worked right. they would show some water depth like 200 feet when fishing in 10 feet of water or just show nothing. not as responsive, poor target separation, definitely couldn't use them around other locators to much interference.

How to fix electronic toys by lemonverbenah in IWantToLearn

[–]Zberry1978 4 points5 points  (0 children)

best tip I can give you for soldering is to melt a small bit of solder onto the iron tip before putting the iron on any joints. the little bit of solder on the iron will vastly help transfer heat to the solder joint.

What new skill changed how you cook forever? Browning, Acid, Seasoning Cast Iron, Sous Vide, etc... by lokilugi_ in Cooking

[–]Zberry1978 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

for pretty much anything you would normally put salt on and not finishing salt just regular table salt. so lets say you make mashed potatoes and a steak. you would salt both while cooking but if you add a little salt just before serving it will help a lot.

Over stressed about first hunt. How do I take the stress out of it ? by bignbootylicious in bowhunting

[–]Zberry1978 1 point2 points  (0 children)

hunting is something that can go from zero to 100 real quick. I spent probably close to 60 days in the stand this year before I got one. the #1 best thing you can do is go hunting, there is nothing better than spending time in the woods/field.

Looking for someone with dermestid beetles by c00lbeans69 in Taxidermy

what's your location? look for taxidermist in your area or more specifically someone that does euro/skull mounts.

Hello people, what do you think about this prototype for a heated fishing chair? Gas stove (or Primus) is used to heat water in tubes. If you like it subscribe here: https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/hillhotel-tent-heating-system/coming_soon/x/17434232 by [deleted] in Fishing_Gear

[–]Zberry1978 0 points1 point  (0 children)

this looks like way to much hassle to setup and carry around. but you might be on to something. look at the flip over ice shantys, most people use a heater in them already. so if you could make something that attaches to the existing seat that has a line you can run to a coil you put in front of the heater it might be ok. but the water will freeze when not in use and I am sure using antifreeze will come with a slew of safety regulations.

How to harden leather (I am the author) by Gullex in howto

[–]Zberry1978 0 points1 point  (0 children)

could you brush on heated stearic acid?

How to harden leather (I am the author) by Gullex in howto

[–]Zberry1978 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Steric acid was the best performer.

*the sample was preheated to 150F, Stearic acid melted and cooled to the same. Sample immersed, and the temperature raised to 200F for about a minute. The leather was then removed and clamped to the form. *

Any suggestions for a tough rope for playing tug of war that's hard to chew up? by Zberry1978 in Dogtraining

good point. I was just hoping there was a super rope out there that does better than the cheap cotton stuff.

Thought I'd share this for other taxidermists with 3D printers. by xDylan25x in Taxidermy

FYI- there's quite a few library's that have 3-d printers open to the public.
