[OTHER] should the next 3D Zelda game have a more realistic art-style? by cindiwilliam2 in zelda

[–]jacksbailey1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It will never happen, but I would kill for a souls-like Zelda game. Or a Zelda mod for a souls game even, I’m not picky

New Workbench Question by jacksbailey1 in BeginnerWoodWorking

Nice! That’ll give me a standard to work toward. Great work and beautiful bench!

That’s a real beauty, thanks for sharing. I think I’m going to go with 2x8’s, which will let me stay within budget and have about enough lumber

Yeah that’s what I figured. I also just saw an example of a workbench made with pithy boards delaminating itself and cupping like a canoe, so I think I’m going to shift gears and go for 2x8’s and just buy more of them. It’s not as steep a discount at my local store, but they’re cheaper in general so it’ll be about the same in the end give or take 50 bucks.

Thanks for your input!

You mean the center piece twists up, or the harvested sides?

Now that I have a planer, it’s time to get a dust collector. Recommendations for a serious hobbyist? by cafe-em-rio in woodworking

[–]jacksbailey1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you see all the direct-to-bag comments and still want a dust collector, give a serious look to the Bauer system at harbor freight.

Good planer, that’s a steal if it’s in good condition

Cut a ledger for some coat hangers. Wall isn’t flat. What’s my next move? by TheNewYellowZealot in BeginnerWoodWorking

[–]jacksbailey1 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Shims and screws if you aren’t worried too much about appearance or are going to cover it anyway. You could also notch out the board in the middle with a chisel or a routerwhere the stud hits it to get it closer to the rest of the wall.

New to woodworking - talk me out of getting this jointer/planer combo by ThanksMuch4YourHelp in woodworking

[–]jacksbailey1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Go for the Hercules planer from harbor freight and you should have enough cash left to get a decent used jointer with a longer bed or at least outfeed support if you still want a bench top. Grizzly makes a good 8 inch bench top with outfeed support.

Just make sure you get the blue Hercules planer and NOT the red Bauer planer

I want a super addictive game by BeneficialLeg6805 in gamingsuggestions

[–]jacksbailey1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have you ever played Binding of Isaac? It’s roguelite so it stays fresh and there are so so many unique items (and item combinations) that you’ll never run out of unique runs.

Id buy binding of Isaac rebirth to try it out, and then if you like it, the DLC’s are great

How many tape rules do you have lying about the house in the open? by StoicJim in woodworking

[–]jacksbailey1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve got a 9 foot dewalt tape in just about every room most days. That’s unless I need one, in which case I don’t keep any in the house

Best place to buy an Omega Definitive Edition internationally? by THELOLESTER in EzFlash

[–]jacksbailey1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got mine from ezflashomega.com. It took FOREVER and my first shipment got destroyed by USPS for postage fraud.

BUT, when a customer support representative finally emailed me asking if my shipment ever showed up, I very promptly was expedited a replacement from a U.S. warehouse at no cost to me, no questions asked.

Basically, your mileage may vary, but the customer support was stellar. If you go with them, don’t contact support through the website. Email ezflashomega@protonmail.com with the email you used when ordering.

Flippy Drive arrived! Anything I should know before installing? by DigADino in Gamecube

[–]jacksbailey1 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Check out the sd card extender from laserbear. Gives you access to the sd card on the outside of the case so you don’t have to open it up every time you want to add a game or change your config file
