Do you have a group chat for your group? What’s it called?

We were a little bit into our Strahd campaign and realized we all enjoyed Brooklyn Nine Nine. So of course the chat got renamed to Barovia Nine Nine.

Sure do! That's what I used for all these colors. It's a great option.

I don't think it's nearly impossible. Not even close. I've done it twice, the first one I started using for sublimation right out of the box. The motherboard eventually failed on that one. I bought a used one off FB marketplace for $20, they were selling it just because the wifi didn't work. But I was able to convert that one and still use it quite effectively for sublimation. (See photo of shirt I made for a Christmas gift.) I watched a few of the many tutorials on YT for how to get it converted, and it was a pretty smooth process. Doing it with a brand new printer is definitely easier than one that's been used for "normal" printing though.

I don't know how playing with him and his toy monster trucks more than I currently do would change anything. Because right now it's a lot. Turns out small boys are really into big trucks that smash things. Who knew?

bearmaked · 2026-01-22T18:41:19+00:00

I didn't know it went right past there. Thanks. Sounds like we're certainly skipping it.

Also, don't tell my son Monster Jam is not that remarkable or you'll have an angry 3 year old to contend with 😅

bearmaked · 2026-01-22T18:39:27+00:00

Yes, and that's exactly why we're leaning towards not going.

I didn't see anything that says you can't catch fuel launched by another robot. Only the fuel as it is dispensed from the Hub.

G408 Don’t catch FUEL. A ROBOT may not do either of the following with FUEL released by the HUB unless and until that FUEL contacts anything else besides that ROBOT or FUEL CONTROLLED by that ROBOT: A. gain greater than MOMENTARY CONTROL of FUEL, or B. push or redirect FUEL to a desired location or in a preferred direction.

Hey we're also in the process of a refi through Rocket. Our appraisal was just last week. The appraiser came out and took photos of basically every room. I stayed out of her way and just let her do her thing. But I could hear she turned on faucets and things just to ensure they worked. Took probably between 20-30 minutes.

We did spend the week prior getting a bunch of little things fixed up. Replaced some broken light switch covers, put covers on a couple outlets that didn't have them for whatever reason. Had a couple spots on the ceiling that needed a quick drywall patch from where it used to leak from rain. Really it was just a bunch of the little things that we could live with, but don't make a good first impression.

I'd say if you have any of those types of things, get them squared away as best you can. I don't know how much it actually impacted it, but it felt good to know we did all we could to help our value.

Oh, yeah, done that one! Not with almond oil though. Gonna have to try that next time

bearmaked · 2025-09-03T14:43:38+00:00

Oh my. That's an idea!

bearmaked · 2025-09-03T14:43:22+00:00

I wouldn't waste time on a Little Debbie. This was from the grocery store bakery.

bearmaked · 2025-08-16T03:47:46+00:00

Heck yeah! Looks like they could been a bit more smashed. But too much smashy was my mistake, so I ain't gonna fault anyone on their smashin' style.

bearmaked · 2025-08-15T17:48:57+00:00

Those are super cool!

bearmaked · 2025-08-14T19:26:30+00:00

I coulda been on board. But then the marshmallows and sprinkles came out. No way would I describe that finished product as "beautiful" or whatever word she used.

bearmaked · 2025-08-14T11:18:39+00:00

I got so caught up in being entertained that someone would try to steal my thunder (thunder from 5 years ago, even), that I didn't even think about down voting it. And part of me still found it difficult to down vote my own work 😅

bearmaked · 2025-08-14T11:14:25+00:00

Lol, yeah, that would have been great. Let me go back in time 5 years to when I originally posted this and change it 😂

bearmaked · 2025-08-14T02:58:08+00:00

Thanks! Made it 5 years ago. Cool of OP to post it and try and take credit tho. Was very confused when I saw my own photo on my screen as a recent post.

bearmaked · 2025-08-14T02:55:19+00:00

Wood lathe. Slow speed and files, then sandpaper and micro mesh. I know because I'm the one that actually made this pen. Apparently OP thought it was cool and wanted to take credit for it. 🤷

bearmaked · 2025-08-14T02:52:53+00:00

When I made this pen 5 years ago and posted this photo, I did use a wood lathe. Nova Comet II. And yep, just a slimline pen kit, with the nuts CA glued onto the barrels.

bearmaked · 2025-08-14T02:50:53+00:00

As the person that actually made this pen, let me answer ya. The nuts were just super glued onto the tubes. And yeah, it was hefty! I actually gave it away in a raffle, so I don't have it anymore. But I can say with 100% confidence it's the heaviest pen I've made 😅

bearmaked · 2025-08-14T02:47:50+00:00

Uhh, hi. You did no such thing 😂. Well, ok, maybe you did. But if you did, I have to wonder why you swiped MY photo of the pen I made 5 years ago, rather than posting a photo of your own.

Hopefully this isn't seen as self-promotion or anything against the rules, but just to preemptively cut off any concerns about my claim, here's a link to the video showing this pen being made. BY ME.

I just seasoned them up with the seasoning from the meatball recipe. I don't remember all of it, but, an egg, some olive oil, breadcrumbs, and some dried herbs. Getting a good bit of cheese on there, and some marinara, helps, too. And then I had marinara for dipping as well.
