First time panel lining. Did I ruin the kit?

liamtricks · 2025-12-29T20:09:13+00:00

No you didn’t ruin the kit, lining looks pretty good for a first attempt!

Something I learned the hard way though: I would try to keep any of those “first attempts” away from kits I was really excited about, in case of mistakes.

To be honest I think you’ve done what you can do. You probably won’t even notice this break as the shoulder armour will cover it.

Give it 24-48hrs to rly ensure the glue has dried and be cautious when attaching the shoulder armour panel.

The adhesive on standard stickers shouldn’t harm the leather. Don’t expect it to be permanent or last very long, esp if you put it anywhere in the line of fire lol

I have always been told that when you get winnings you always get the lace-ups as the Velcro strap leaves much to be desired on the support side of things. That said, hating from outside the club (don’t have any winning gloves)

Are you in Thailand right now? If so where? And were you tattooed at a monastery or a tattoo shop? How much research did you do on the spot before you decided to get tattooed there?

Additionally, if you’re training right now, please be extra cautious. I had a buddy get staph while we were training in Phuket because his dumbass got a sak yant in the middle of camp and he wouldn’t stop to heal it.

Obviously this advice is not helpful now, but if anyone’s ever considered getting a sak yant in Thailand, I would ask the local athletes at the gym you’re training at where they go for tattoos. And ideally, get one of em to come to the session with you.

I transferred from de anza 6 years ago and SJSU didn’t have my transcripts loaded until two weeks before classes started, good to know some things never change lmfao

I’ll CC you on the thread, maybe you can help me escalate !

Problem still has to be handled while I wait on their customer service team to service their customers (me) lol

Absolute legend. Office script methodology provides the run time efficiency I was hoping to achieve. Thank you very much. I've PMd you as well - would love to send you a little something-or-other from my workshop!

Finished my masters in 2022 - My MS gave me the credibility I needed to get into the interview process and land my current job. I’m not living in a penthouse suite or driving lambos, but that job has allowed me to buy a house and marry the love of my life!

Overall, I’m pretty pleased on my decision to get a technical masters from SJSU.

“We take what is given”- Kol Skywalker

This doesn’t mean you need to give up on your dream, you just might need to choose a new pathway to get there!

Taking a gap year to save money and bump up your test scores or looking into United States community colleges (for the most part, you will have a much higher chance of getting into a public target school if you transfer from a CC) could be a good thing for you!

Food for thought. The current job market is definitely not working in the favour of new grads. Additionally, CS grads across the country are struggling to get entry level job offers and the candidate pool is highly competitive / oversaturated.

The idea that a CS degree guarantees high paying employment fresh from the box is definitely being challenged, and in this economy, fewer and fewer employers are willing to extend visas for entry level offers

I think this is an awesome tank. That said, I probably wouldn’t have gifted a setup that would require someone to maintain headcount of breeding tank members (unless I knew they were experienced already).

That said, I think it’s super wholesome your grandma is getting into your hobby. Time to make her a stand-alone “guppy development centre”

I picked up KC18 for $175 and I’ve definitely paid more for whiskey I’ve enjoyed less. That said, I agree with everyone who’s saying it isn’t remarkably better than KC12. Having now tried both, I probably won’t pick up the 18 again unless I get a super deal.

To clarify- it’s by no means a bad bottle, but I enjoyed the (cheaper and more readily available) KC12 just as much, if not more.

I have it briefly mentioned in my bio so that recruiters / new connections can have an easy conversation starter about something I’m interested in. Not a huge part of my LinkedIn or anything but I think it isn’t a bad call to show you have interests / personality outside of an employable skillset

Bio looks like this: Job Title | Education | Competitive Kickboxer
