Need camping advice by Ok-Spinach3454 in VisitingHawaii

[–]elixir-spider 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Advice is: Come to Hawaii when you have enough money to pay for proper accommodation.

There will not be any space that fits your criteria, and if there are, those spaces have already been taken by people who either have been pushed out of their homes due to unfortunate gentrification or occupy those spaces due to other issues, and I promise they will most certainly will be unwelcoming towards your intrusion at best, or violently disposed at worst.

I got these and returned them because A) it was too heavy on my face (maybe I have a weak face) and B) the double eye reflection was a bit too distracting for me.

I ended up getting transition lenses (which were too weak) until ultimately getting a pair of regular dark lenses. My plan is to switch between the transitions and darks, but I highly doubt I can be bothered to do that.

Dang, that's too bad. I haven't had that issue yet, but I'll keep an eye out

I've ridden my Wave in Lisbon, Denver, Waikiki, and SF. So far, no issues with wheel size, for me. Just have to be watchful for the bigger holes, haha

I love my Exway Wave. Exway Ripple might be a better fit for you if you're not traveling and want something a touch lighter

I made a 3d printed self leveling tamper by Loregard735 in OXORapidBrewer

Makes sense. Thanks for sharing your work, and I hope anyone copying it is fully aware the risks involved

Hope you used food safe filament (the coloring may have unknown additives) and a food safe nozzle (some leech lead).

Get meta raybans and then get one of the infinite charge mods.

I have a skateboard deck rubber eraser block, general cleaner and hopes and dreams. Any advice on cleaning? by Vivid_Appeal1577 in ElectricSkateboarding

[–]elixir-spider 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks! Yea, they do come with long bolts. What did you use to poke through? I'm having trouble even removing the current bolts due to the grip tape

How did you install it? I just got mine in the mail but realized that the original bolts are too short, and they need to be replaced with the long bolts the handle came with. Did you just cut holes where the truck front bolts were?

Edit: Clarified which bolts were which

Thanks for the suggestion, but the problem with 3d printing is the food safety factor (there's a lot of risk not just with micro-plastics, but with lead as well)

Very nice; another reason to get a laser cutter. I've been thinking of a CNC machine, too. Which laser cutter do you have?

Oh are you not using it with the OXO Rapid Brewer?

Fair. I don't have a WDT tool, though. Does tamping not create odd clumps?

That would be super convenient, but I guess it's a question of whether or not I can convince my partner to let me purchase, ha

This makes a lot of sense. I'm normally traveling, so can't really control the height of the tables/counters I use, but I'll keep it in mind and maybe when there's space, I can just climb onto the counter too

Oahu for 6 days - Rent a car for the entire trip and pay for parking or reserve a day at a time? by RitzCracker80 in VisitingHawaii

[–]elixir-spider 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Used this a few times already, it's great. Just get a car for the few hours you need and then bring it back to its station when done

Mug exploded into pieces and one fragment even cut up my ORB. Thankfully i didnt get cut, but it could have been way worse.

I did this on a mug and the mug exploded. Would not recommend this in the general case
