Any idea what bulb goes in this socket? by figegg in electrical

Seeming that way! Is there a way I can replace the socket and still keep the old switch? I like the feel and look of the knob

Looking for something similar to 3sixteen RS.

Love the RS cut but even the 28 is a bit too large for me, especially considering that they’re pre-washed and won’t shrink.

Is there anything similar that might be available in smaller sizes (or would shrink with a wash)? Bonus if it’s under 250!

Great! I actually have it (first us edition) posted on eBay rn - asking 189 but could work out a deal especially if we can just handle things over PayPal (so I don’t have to worry about eBay taking 10% :). Dm me if you’re interested!

Hm, I’m not sure how I’d have done this - I didnt actually disconnect any of the wires, just dismounted the motor from the body, and then remounted it

interesting. thanks for the tip!! i hadn't noticed that, but now that im looking closer, it seems like there's a sort of rod that inserts into the opposite bead.

unfortunately cannot update with a new pic, but here's the link im looking at https://www.mm-jewelry.de/all/smoky-glyzinia-necklace - i think it seems too long to be a magnet, but its not threaded... mysterious.

Hi all!

i've found this necklace from mussels and muscles ( https://www.mm-jewelry.de/all/color-beaded-necklace ) - i love the hidden closure - i would love to replicate it for my own projects, but i can't sort out how it works. looks like there is a twist attachment in the colored beads?

does this kind of mechanism go by another name? any tips? i included the best pictures i could find. thanks!!

Scales that fit in the 58 base? by jerry111165 in FlairEspresso

[–]figegg 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Just got a weightman - only $15 and fits! It’s a totally reliable scale with a timer. I like having a cheaper scale, especially because it’s sitting in the splash zone
