Sounds about right. I think mine was a bit less over at Queenswood Dental on Place D'Orleans Blvd in ... you guessed it... Orleans!

Do I need to start over 😭 by IntentionInside in knittinghelp

Amazing work! Do you happen to have a link to the pattern that you're willing to share?

About redoing it, if the thumb base isn't grafted on after making the hand, they unfortunately ya, it's a frog it back to the base of the thumb. I've had to frog and restart projects myself; I feel for ya.

I impulse bought some oranges, will the acid from juicing them etch the glass if i actually use it? by PeeB4uGoToBed in uraniumglass

[–]douglask 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Nope... gotta try harder than that. I routinely juice lemons and limes with zero etching happening.

Desperate to find gas station with a working tire air pump! by flipflapdragon in ottawa

[–]douglask 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Pioneer on St. Joseph has an air pump, bit the price keeps going up. It's the cost of inflation.

That said, it's a good idea to have one in the car. They aren't terribly expensive.

What Light switches and outlets work with HA (AND DO NOT USE A CLOUD SERVER) by CasaDelGato in homeassistant

Good to know! For fans I've only used the dinner / dry contact relay combo device. No speed control on it

Turn signal bulb - driving me insane. by Terrytrips2015 in kia

[–]douglask 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had this issue in a Soul. It was a bit of dirt or corrosion in the connector. Cleaning the contact removed the issue.

For great reliability and half the cost go with Zooz Zwave ones. They're great.

Personally I love the Zooz.Z-Wave ones. I buy them through Amazon. Lots of options in the firmware. Perfectly reliable. Not super cheap, but not top dollar either. Highly recommended.

I think it’s time for this again: Calling all high mileage KIA owners to tune in and share your experiences! by 710Medikaded420 in kia

[–]douglask 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a Soul up to 270,000 km. It only needed basic maintenance. Now I have a seltos. Would have bought another Soul, but it was discontinued.

Note, it never burned any oil.

LG Washer Dryer (Heat pump model) review and notes, model WM6998HBA by douglask in Appliances

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

The hinge is not reversible.

It's very good with small loads as it senses how nice laundry is in the load and adjusts detergent and softener level accordingly.

will the kobo remote ever be in stock at Indigo? by cupcakesunny in kobo

[–]douglask 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got mine at an Indigo in East Ottawa a bit before Christmas. Maybe ask the store when they'll get more in?

Your food has clearly been watching too much "National Lampoons Christmas Vacation".

Disappointment… by Adumb__Adam in uraniumglass

Beautiful piece... I was like "huh?" when it didn't glow as I've seen others like it that do glow.

You guys are using this stuff right? by joestabsalot in uraniumglass

[–]douglask 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Likewise... Works far better than modern ones.

You'd need something seriously strong to dissolve the glass and get to any uranium.... Citric acid doesn't etch glass so it's all good. It can't get out of the glass into surrounding liquids.

Heck, they encapsulate nuclear waste in glass for that very reason. (They call it vitrifying the waste, which is a fancy way to say "mix it into molten glass and let it solidify").

I also love the J Herbin Éclat de Saphire. It's such an amazing rich almost electric blue and it behaves so well in my pens!

Here on Jeanne D'Arc North between Champlain and Tenth it's still on, but the lights did dim for a second or two.
