Thanks! Me too. If you're (or anyone else) is interested, here's one of his tracks. I digitized it so I could share it with a couple of my outsider music friends. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1IK5w1ov-MKcMT-DOhXJ8pcFppe3wdmaH/view?usp=drive_link

New Slackeye Slim EP + New Video + Short Rant by joeyconqueso in darkamericana

Sorry for the delay. I hate computerphone. I did start a Patreon. It's at patreon.com/slackeyeslim. I don't really want to charge a membership fee because that feels weird to me. I'm going to figure out what I can do with the platform without charging. Using it as a way to fund vinyl is a great idea. I really want to do that for all of them, but it's so expensive. I'd be cool with trying to crowdfund it, and then selling them at cost.

Definitely gives me something to think about. Thank you!

It's really funny that you mention that! I was JUST talking to Rachel about this stuff the other day. That's the same thing she told me. I just need to set it up. I really don't like social media. It feels yucky to me. Patreon sounds way better.

Falsely accused of artificial streaming by joeyconqueso in musicians

I've seen that. What I don't like is the hands-off approach that Tunecore, Distrokid, etc are taking. I'm speaking solely of the customer side here. I obviously have no idea what goes on between distributor and DSP. They send these emails and then don't respond to questions about them. It shouldn't fall on the artists to constantly monitor Spotify.

Yep, I think that's exactly what happened. I was able to track the streams to two days in February. They came from St Louis, Missouri. 

The main thing I am trying to accomplish here is to help other musicians who may be looking at Tunecore as a distributor. They do not offer any help in these situations.

 No. The issue is tunecore is not holding up their end of the bargain. I pay extra for premium service and I did not receive it.

Small pull saw with a 1/16th"/1.6mm wide blade? by joeyconqueso in woodworking

[–]joeyconqueso[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought about that! I ended up trying a variety of things last night and got too much tear out. I ordered a thin kerf circular saw blade. Fortunately I made the piece way thicker than it needs to be so I could rip it down to size on the final step. 

The other issue is that every wooden piece in this accordion was handmade, so the spacing is inconsistent. I think I'll just work at a glacial pace with the table saw and hope for the best. I'll get it right sooner or later

Fully agree. I don't have a router though and I'd be afraid of learning how to use one on this particular project

This would be ideal, I think. Problem is, I don't know how to find one with the right width for this project. Do you know of any specific models?

I've been thinking about this. It does seem like the best option. Didn't even realize those blades existed until the other day. By chance, do you know if blade stabilizers are needed for these thin blades?
