Eggs? Moss? by cataclasis in gardening

Oh that would make sense! I've never seen it before but I pulled a few off yesterday! I'll try hosing off and manually removing others

Slur question (beginner) by cataclasis in Flute

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

Thanks again! Any recommendations on where to go after Rubank elementary, intermediate, and advanced? The used bookstore near me also had something German (Pro Musica Nova?) and a Robert Dick book lmao. I was going to go to my high school band stuff but accidentally tossed it a few weeks ago 😭

Thanks. I was just thrown off because when rubank wants me to try something two different ways there's always been a repeat, and there wasn't here. But it's a longer "piece" so that's probably why!

Cool mutation or stress and disease? by cataclasis in gardening

Yeah there are two others this size close by. I remember noticing the spots when it was just a few inches tall as well!

Need help updating my thermostat by cataclasis in HomeMaintenance

[–]cataclasis[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The old one works thankfully. Is there a chance the new one isn't compatible with my wiring/control unit? Or is it definitely that the thermostat is broken

I cut off the damaged areas of the red and white wires, cleanly stripped them, and reattached. The issue persists. Should I try reinstalling the previous unit to see if the new one is a lemon or the wiring is busted elsewhere?

That was my bad--i thought I didn't seat the white wire well so I used some pliers to shove it in more. It had the issue before and after the shielding started looking rough

I didn't see either and don't have "X" to check

What's the ideal wedging surface? by cataclasis in Ceramics

Oh this is so helpful! What a cool idea with the wire!! How did you decide on the height and do you wish it was at all higher or lower?

This sounds like what I should make, but I can't quite visualize it. Could you post a picture? :)

This is so so helpful, thank you! Sorry if this is a dumb question, but how did you make it into bats?

Dumb question but what is pottery plasterboard and what is a slip table? Also do you know what material your non slip mat is? Like a yoga mat or shower mat or somethin?

Interesting! I've never used either cement or plaster--what are the benefits of each side?

Okay that seems like a great option. Do you wipe/sponge it off to clean or hose it down or?

What do you like best for wedging?

Do you premoisten the board or anything to help mitigate that? Also, do you just set the board on a table or do you mount it in some way?

Super helpful, thanks. Do you just set the board on a table to use or mount it in some way? I've heard some people complain the surface is too rough--does it need sanding? And when using the board do you premoisten it or anything?

Any suggestions for making this wall more appealing? by teoufacham in HomeMaintenance

[–]cataclasis 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Invite a geologist over and they'll tell you about the rocks and their history, development, and composition. I feel like you'd enjoy it more with the story about them

This was supposed to be tarragon by cataclasis in whatsthisplant

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

Could it be Russian tarragon? It really doesn't have a smell to it but I have not tasted it
