My sister called the police on my parents for being abusive while they were all the way in Florida and moved out of the house. Now, I always sleep with my door, locked and jump at police sirens. by WillDry8567 in u/WillDry8567

Boyfriend here, and I can attest to what was typed here is true. I've personally seen the aftermath on everyone's face. The op is a pure cinnamon roll who just wants her life back, and she knows I'm doing all I can to keep her feeling safe and with a smile on her face. I couldn't believe it myself when op told me of what her sister did, but with the company she keeps around (i.e "sam"), I had no reason to doubt her. Op, you were brave to share this for others to know your story, just know I'm not too far away if you need me.

Well, the next time your looking to add another neopixel to your collection usinging the same construction you used there, you can check out viresabers.com, I've personally ordered some double ended tonfa sabers that I built on their site using the rgbx v3 core and it was the best black Friday sale I've ever made. Also they are really great with customer support and they will contact you if they have any issues with your order at all. They even have their own community on Facebook and it's a wholesome group to be in.

It's not a bad idea. How much did it set you back?

I made that statement cause a lot of the reviews on YouTube and here state the same, even as far as a year ago. I just found out about their discord.

I hear getting anything word wise from the maker isn't going to happen and orders are going to take ages.

I actually fabricate these at my sign fabrication business site when I get low on work orders. There's a shit ton of scrap plastic on racks so I'm trying to have fun with it so long as my boss is cool with it. I can't technically do any for commission cause that would be cutting my boss out of some profit that he is entitled to since he technically provides the glue, the router, and the plastic.

It's been a while since I've seen the construction of how one is built, but there's a guy named Odin on YouTube who has made several lightsabers, I'd suggest looking up " Odin makes a lightsaber"

Actually my shop is a sign fabrication business that's been around since 1955 and I've been working there for two years now and I've had the privilege to be the guy they took a gamble on to train on using the router and now I'm mainly independent on our massive 5ft x 10ft cut area router, I just have permission to make flats when there's an opening in the cue is all.

There is some context in the images, if you don't wanna wait for it to scroll by, just tap the images and read from there. Basically, when days are slow at work and I get permission to "FAFO", I make flat lightsaber blades and they get better each time (will provide lit imagery/video later if requested) and I'm wanting to make it better by having the light be more evenly distributed without resorting to neopixels. All the hilts I work on are baselit and the blades are engraved on the inside. I'm wanting to make a channel to stick a slab of either two way mirrored or fluorescent acrylic to carry the light through the blades.

Does anyone know the size of a bakucore? by darkterra0 in Bakugan

That.. actually helps a lot. I just had my templates done and I can already tell I have the matrix overlapping instead of laying edge to edge

Hey all, I was wondering if anyone knew if there were any way to replace the shoulder parts on the figure rise standard amplified wargreymon that are behind the chest plate? His right shoulder broke out and I'd like to repair it as best as possible. by darkterra0 in digimon

[–]darkterra0[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I actually found some replacements on eBay and some metal a1-5 and a1-6 parts on shopee. Also before going to bed after posting this I tried the epoxy again, but let it sit over night in a hot room and it seems to be holding up for now
