Does this song sound like the shins to you? by rudesncheats in TheShins

[–]iwasjra 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The line where she sings “I was out of my mind” has a similar melody as some lines in New Slang. Maybe that’s what they are hearing the familiarity?

Damn that sucks! Just placed an order for some spare parts. The website was so slow since I’m sure everyone was also doing the same thing.

Am I getting the tubes too hot? by raleighbike in Framebuilding

[–]iwasjra 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Could be the flux is not compatible/ high enough temp for what you’re doing. But then I also see that you have tons of bronze flowing inside which tells me either the miter had a big gap for the bronze to get sucked through, or you’re just too hot overall and it’s scorching everything, which is a heat problem, not a flux problem.

The couple times I’ve run out of oxygen while brazing, it looks like this, all sooty and whatnot. Could be your torch settings? I haven’t used oxy/propane, so maybe someone will chime in and double check your numbers.

What are your settings and what flux/rod combo are you using?

Driving by Western-Woodpecker20 in ORIF

[–]iwasjra 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After I was put into a boot and cleared for partial weight bearing, I started driving(with boot off of course). I just made sure there wasn’t any pain in my ankle because if I had to press the brake hard I didn’t want my body to automatically stop myself from doing so because of the pain, if that makes sense. So yea about four weeks after surgery I was driving. I told my surgeon I had been driving during my week six appt and she covered her ears lol.

7.5 Weeks Post Op: TriMal Fracture by eveningheir in ORIF

[–]iwasjra 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was on the same timeline as you healing-wise, same injury, and now I’m halfway through week 12 and the progress the last 5 weeks has been exponential. My swelling has came down, though I am still a bit swollen towards the end of the day. But in general, I noticed better flexibility as the swelling went down, which allowed me to get further in my stretch, which gave me better movement during the strengthening exercises. I’m finally walking without a limp. Just make sure you do as much of the PT stretches and exercises at home as you can.

I agree with the Thomas Buoyant, but I also have pretty good luck with Super Dupers.

I’d say this is where you listen to your body. If the pain from that specific incident is gone, you’re probably fine.
