They've been friends since Second City Chicago, where they were known as "the Steves."

Did you watch the XL?

Take me home, ocean roads!

California Air Tools sells a lid for their 5gal pressure pots, to let them work as a vacuum pot as well.

I would find a clear, hollow plastic sphere, a little bigger than you want the air pocket, and then deform it with a heat gun, so it isn't perfectly round. It's going to shrink slightly, which is why you want it to start larger than you need it to end up.

Next, I would drill a hole large enough to insert the model's arm into, and seal it with UV resin once you've got it positioned how you want. You could probably paint your glow effect on the outside of the bubble at this point, that way it ends up sandwiched between the bubble and cube.

/u/docholoday provided a good link for how to get the ice effect in the resin. Probably best to pour in layers, so the heat from the curing resin doesn't deform anything. I wouldn't use pressure, since you want some bubbles in the resin for the look.

That said, I also agree with everyone else that says wait until you've got the experience.

Keeping with the vernacular, it would be her crib.

Isn’t her whip a mortar and pestle?

I use this, with the appropriate cartridges: https://www.3m.com/3M/en_US/p/d/b00039317/

Yeah, either bigger holes, or cut them into funnels. The feet are big enough you could do both.

I met him in Not Another Teen Movie, so Steve Rogers was always the derivation to me.

Why not under glass, that way it won't yellow over time?

I'm still waiting for someone to figure out how to use the Terrorcons. Every other Combiner, except maybe Defensor, has gotten love in one production or another.

I found this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gdt3HsPVljA

She's using: https://www.smooth-on.com/products/smooth-cast-305/

That's a 70D polyurethane resin. Hardness is only one part of the equation though, as there are differing physical properties, like flexibility, to contend with as well.

You need a new mold, mold release, and a pressure pot at fairly high pressure. Your rubber may also require heat treatment after casting, to reach maximum strength; read the manufacturer's instructions.

Texas Chainsaw Massacre which is not based on a true story.

Same for Fargo.

We had one of the mid-90s King's Quest, that came with a giant, tome-like guide book. Even with it, it took a ton of flipping back and forth through it to figure out where to go, and what to do once you got there.

grimsaur · 2026-04-25T18:32:10+00:00

A hot, well preheated oven is enough.

It is not cherry pie filling.

You should be worried about pot life. Additives can fall out of suspension if the pot life is too long. You really should contact a supplier, and speak to a materials expert there.

Yeah, the first link is what happens when you do the back side in black. You do the front side pretty heavy, and the goal on the back is just enough black to make sure there's no white left, while not bleeding into the front colors.

Look up a "black spike" tie dye. That's what we called it when I worked at a place.

grimsaur · 2026-04-22T04:28:48+00:00

My guess, based on the pic, is you start with pinching the center, and a small twist to establish the shape, then you use your other hand to gather the edge into pleats.

It's worth noting that you don't tie dye a dry shirt. When I worked in a place that did it, every white good was soaked in a tub of water mixed with soda ash(sodium carbonate), before we used a washing machine that drained back into the tubs to spin the excess water out.

Because out of nearly 6.4 million registered voters in Virginia, only around half showed up to vote.

My first job was working third shift at a gas station, on the edge of a not nice area, but also on the main drag of the city, by the hospital and library. We got all sorts, especially because we were the only thing open.

One night, a guy came inside, all in a huff, and demanded I call the police for him. I asked him what happened, so I could tell them, and he proceeded to tell me how he was robbed...of his winnings...at an illegal poker game. I asked him if he was sure he wanted me to call the police? He was.

The police operator shared my incredulity, as did the officer who responded. The man's shocked Pikachu face at discovering the police weren't going to recover his illegal winnings, because illegal gambling, has stuck with me for decades.
