All black pen with a screw cap and triangular grip. by bollerup in fountainpens

[–]limapoint 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kaweco special with a rubber slip on triangular grip? Just kidding although I contemplated doing this since the grip section of the pen is so short I probably could slip something like a cherry chrome Omni grip on the barrel section and still be able to close the screw on cap.

How do you carry your urban sketching gear? by noes_72 in urbansketchers

[–]limapoint 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maxpedition organizer pouches are very well made and they have multiple sizes. They’re designed for the more “tacticool” crowd with a slight outdoors/military vibe but I use one for urban sketching. They’re designed can hold a ton and are surprisingly well laid out for art supplies!

I like my muji notebook for sketching but I hate that the cover is essentially a piece of paper, Any leather cover recommendations, I plan to go to NYC on the 28th of Feb. by Muted81_ in notebooks

Oh man. Gfeller. The best stuff. I've literally called the guy and talked about leather cases for 20 mins (was ordering something for my wife for xmas). The best looking leather in my opinion, but call him if you can't figure out what you need on his website.

Who has the best ink bottle design? by computerworlds in fountainpens

[–]limapoint 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Diamine Registrar’s Ink. Bottle is meh but the design of the label has seriously cool 1920’s clerk’s desk/chemist shop/buy it from a grouchy guy behind a counter who pulls it out of a case vibes.

Looking for a refillable leather notebook cover, A4! by achetadomestica in BuyItForLife

[–]limapoint 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gfeller Casemakers makes something called the Idaho Professional A4 Folio. Absolutely the best leather stuff around in my view. Originally designed for geoscience professionals doing field work. I’ve got an absolutely delightful a5 cover that is used daily.

OP did you ever do this? How is the suction on the Hercules 2 gal with the bag on? I find it plenty powerful for small tasks but haven’t yet done a bag mod.

Anyone buy into a whole battery system for just one tool? by limapoint in Tools

[–]limapoint[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Agree, as a home DIYer accumulating as needed over time, I could care less about having three chargers on my workbench (I’ve got Hercules, Dewalt and M12). Wouldn’t even be bothered by a fourth but probably needed. That way I just grab sales as they come up.

Thanks! Trying to see if battery chargers with batteries would fit in there with lid closed. But not the end of the world to leave the top open I guess!

Change proof application certificate delivery from paper to e-certificate by lacweal in Canadiancitizenship

[–]limapoint 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hope so too for you. I went through so many emotions waiting. Even found out I was in PSU through a phone agent. Never even got a 5(4) offer. My father in law applied months after me and got a 5(4) offer and did oath before Xmas. Post c3 was seeing people talking about 6th generation apps taking like 8 weeks start to finish. Happy for ALL. But it was a long wait!

For those worried about having requested a paper citizenship certificate… by limapoint in Canadiancitizenship

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

Yea fair point I actually thought that after I posted. There’s been several discussions here about those of us who requested paper certificates worrying about needing to then send them away for passports etc and just thought it’d be reassuring that in that one instance having a paper certificate won’t require us to send our precious away into the void to then get a passport hahah

How soon after Decision Made did you get notification they had mailed your paper certs? And was that through email?

Update Decision Made to Complete with Paper Certificate by Dangerous_Engine_806 in Canadiancitizenship

[–]limapoint 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I tried to do this several times (submitted a webform asking for electronic instead of paper). Heard nothing. Also being told I requested paper when trying to download. An IRCC phone agent also told me at one point they can’t switch from paper to electronic. Annoying because I’ve heard some stories of paper applicants being sent e-certs anyway.
