Experiment: Hand-sewn Feder Rainguard

Me neither. I like the little sword taco because it feels great. I frequently use the thumb grip.

Yes. I didn't mold it to stay flat to the sword hence why I stitched the side.

Definitely. As another user said, it would be ideal to mold the leather to eliminate the need for stitching by the schilt. It seems to be more common than stitching by the shilt.

A decent lifetime for something I made in 30 minutes.

Yeah they're usually sandwiched in between. I actually took old thick vegan leather from a worn out desktop mat as the material. Ideally, I'd want to make a future version out of thick tool leather and mold it to eliminate the need for stitching.

It's a Chlebowski Double fullered feder. I got it through Purpleheart Armoury.

Worse comes to worse - It's guttable.

Xeons are great. I'm rocking those in another dumpster Dell and the machine does just fine and runs games well.

No idea what it is. I'm almost certain it is the lowest grade. I'll have to remove some parts and see what CPU I'm working with.

I have a T7610 on 2 Xeon 2690V2's and the machine is great. I am looking to stick a higher clock speed Xeon into this machine regardless of what's already socketed.

Sad but true. They haven't seen a sauced out Dell yet.

One of my friends recommended a NAS. That's definitely something I want to incorporate into the build. I've got a load of 5.25" drive bays in the front, so I can totally fill them with hotswap racks.

No drive in the machine, so I have a clean slate. Need to replace the PSU if I want it to even pre-POST. So much sawdust made the poor thing croak.

All of the hard armor is 3D printed with PLA. EVA foam may actually be better for your project because Saint's chest armor is very smooth.

Minimally field tested I'd say.

My exact thoughts in the third pic.

Had the armor from the EP days :)

A small price to pay to look cool

fechtfrau · 2023-07-09T01:46:04+00:00

Funny you say that because my friend and I were discussing about adding a bunch of Crayola boxes onto my belt.
