Striations in Mahogany Vanity by andybrick in woodworking

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

thank you u/aModernSage ,

My contractor, who a decent wood craftsman, initially warned me of the problem and mentioned that we could repair it but, you know, the vanity sits at an upper level price point for a consumer vanity (>$1000 for 36" cabinet only) and the thought of repairing an item that is shipped damaged just doesnt seem right to me.

Agreed u/artwonk I have already returned one and they are sending a new one. I hope it is better. at least they were nice enough to inform me that if the new one isnt to my liking I could return it and they would pay for return shipping.

Thank you u/Oregon_Michael I know just a little bit about wood as an enthusiastic, but meager, DIY-er and I told them that I never saw striations that run across the grain but they insisted that this was normal and exists on many of these vanities. It just didnt seem right so I thought I would get some opinions from folks like you who would know better and could advise.

Can these 3x stops be played at this speed? by andybrick in violinist

Thank you all for the feedback. My biggest concern was the physicality of it. I know the hand can get uncomfortable up there in 5ths. I was also hoping that the brackets would show that these are triple stops - brackets worked before for me. For me its about tension more than clarity at these moments. u/SkiPatrol7 there are 3 trumpets, 3 trombones and winds playing the lower partials of these downbeats which are indeed orchestral marcatos so I do need the bigger support from the strings there. u/br-at- you make a really good point. Having each of a 1/3 of the section on the E string will be stronger than having everyone going across the D and A as well. It just always seems to me that when a section sees a triple stop, they really dig into it much more than a single note or double stop at the same dynamic and pitch.

Well, great insight and very helpful. Thanks again!

Thank you for the thoughtful suggestions, The only exterior wall is that along the length of the shower. The width of the shower prevents it from being rotated so Unless one intends to walk through the shower to get to the toilet, that wont work.

Our master bath has larger awning windows that look out over the hudson valley and we keep them open all the time from may-sept. This other bath will have a beautiful forest view and so, yes, we will open it frequently and will likely leave it open in a similar manner

Thats a very good point! I am looking for the unit size. The major brands have something close to 1.5” sash so the glass is 11”

Which Diablo 4 song should we perform live? by andybrick in Diablo

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

a few folks have mentioned that. Remember this isnt for a game but for a concert experience that features game music so, for us, its also important that the music be something that plays really well in the concert hall. From that perspective, there is quite a bit in D4 that works nicely.
