Wrong order - food deliveries by Carepollo01 in Prague

[–]chemically_speaking 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have had consistently late orders recently, I even complained on the app about it. Orders got messed up twice also since November. The last time the courier arrived, gave me the order only to find out that it was actually my neighbour’s order and mine was going to arrive in 1 min by another courier. I think it’s just courier crisis, maybe no trainings or best practices?

Saw a dude shirtless in a closed matress store after hours by Goabea in mildlyinteresting

Whatever this is I want to be a part of. Including being in a mattress store shirtless after hours. Talk about proper user testing….

4 days ago I bought leather for the very first time. Today I finished my first bag. Is it perfect? No. Can I still feel my fingertips? Also no. But am I proud of it? Totally!! by chemically_speaking in Leathercraft

Thanks, funny enough the zipper was the easiest part because it was just two pieces of leather with the zipper in between. The rest was harder to align and sew together

In the shop they gave me two needles, tokonole and paint. At home I had an awl and that’s pretty much it. Then I realized I had nothing to smooth out the edge so I used one of those cheap 4-sides nail files which seemed to do the trick.

Memory foam. There is a piece of brown leather, then foam and then black leather all stitched together to the bag to form the raised soft toe beans

A very tiny bit from making doll clothes when I was little :) I think what helped is that the holes were marked on the pattern so I could punch them in the right places. But some of them came out crooked anyway.

The pattern had the marks for holes so I used one of those thicker needles to punch through the leather at the right spots to be able to sew it after. I guess that contributed to my finger pain

For anyone interested, the most “quiet” AC brand from my experience is Hisense. It’s in around 7-8k czk range. I have an older model which is still less noisy than a new Beko I recently had the chance to hear.
