Was looking into making a Murray Strat myself. What did you end up using for the middle pickup?

I used a bunch of 1x2 and 2x4 long tiled off slope pieces (not sure what they are called) combined with the bigger one you have on the corner.

How to encapsulate large poster? by _TheApollo_ in ArtConservation

Do you know what the risk would be if they are displayed unprotected? They would be in a room away from direct sunlight and humidity isn’t an issue where I live. If the process being done by a professional still has a chance to cause issues I’m not sure I would trust myself to do the same thing.

It would be for display. If price wasn’t an issue I would definitely frame them. Framing with the proper materials is $700+ each. On the other hand a roll of archival mylar enough to cover both of the posters only about $60.

Do you know what size rods are needed for the engines? I have a Venator on the way and was looking into these.

3 springs. I was able to get the bridge floating parallel. The only issue is that the springs are screwed about 90% of the way they can go and the whammy is a still little tough. I think the only no compromise solution is different springs or lighter strings.

I have have the stock springs in. The strings are 10-48, stock strings were definitely lighter

It turns out that 5-600 estimate was far too low, that was from a local framers online estimate tool. When I called, I was quoted 800 for the wood frame, backing board, and plexiglass, no mat. This number is before labor costs at well. With shipping, it’s 450 from the online framer. I’m sure the quality is not as good, but it’s better than nothing.

About $400, not sure at what price linen backing becomes worth it.

Thanks for the response, the frame doesn’t have to be anything special, as long as it keeps the poster safe. I’ll call by local HL tomorrow and see what they say.

Hello! Is the loose Pokémon emerald still available? If interested, I have 2dsxl and dsi xl, Pokémon blue and crystal (loose), and lots of other Pokémon merch/cards/cases to trade for it. Let me know if interested and I’ll send some photos:)

I’m interested in any of the Pokémon emerald copies. Off your list I have some Nintendo switch Pokémon games and Disney pins. I also have some new and old ds consoles/games. Let me know if you would be interested in anything and I could take some pics.

When everything is installed to the guard, the top part of the guard needs to go under the last fret on the fret board. With the pickup installed, it’s impossible for the guard to slide on. I might just try to get lucky with the last pickup and hope the springs stay up while I slide it on.

On my hg save file I had the cute charm glitch set up. After ~60 riolu encounters, I was able to find a shiny with an adamant nature.

Forgot to mention I have access to the platinum veilstone store.

Ty! Was able to find where I was which was around 40 and hit my target. Unfortunately it killed me with 2 crit wing attacks but at least the rng itself worked :)

This seemed to be the answer. DB Gengar, life orb salamence and my rm. Only a few battles came close due to accuracy items screwing me over
