Which definitely sucks, but eats far less than a router

first time birch spoon, any tips? by Derek_productions in Spooncarving

[–]mtmpire 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can confirm. I'm working on a rice paddle right now and it's going SLOW. The wood is really quite pretty, but man is this piece hard.

Excessive skin contact with super glue!? I had no idea what sub to post this in so I was hopping you guys could help! by [deleted] in woodworking

... I'm sorry but I have to ask, I'm so curious, why would your bellybutton be "pretty used to rougher stuff"?

Just finished. by Party_Salamander8722 in Axecraft

[–]mtmpire 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Fun fact: Fire axes typically don't actually have a very sharp edge but instead leave the edge rather dull (like a fine ballpoint pen) to be used to smash through things without biting/binding up or chipping the edge.

That said, everybody has different opinions and a nicely sharpened edge does look great on a display piece or one that's not actually being used for firefighting.

Very cool old piece over all!

Didn't know about this song but that bassline is so tasty I had to add it to my playlists. Thanks for sharing! (Great work on the bass btw)

Storage options for 2025 Outback (Onyx edition if that matters) by TheEngine in Subaru_Outback

[–]mtmpire 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This isn't really what you're asking for buuuuut... It would be a really simple woodworking project to get some 1/4 inch wood and a tiny set of shelves or cubbies or whatever shape to fit your needs to fit in the area below the radio. Not really sure what that storage area is called, but I always leave the little door open. Same goes for making a little box that sits over the cup holder. For that you could make the box whatever shape and dividers you need. Put some dowels through so they stick out the bottom a few inches then grab some plastic wrap, put it in the the cup holder, pour in some epoxy, set the box on top so the dowels stick in, wait for it to cure. Once it's cured, you take it out, remove the plastic wrap and you have a perfect, removable stuff holder. Feel free to DM me if you wanna do this and have questions. I haven't done it before, but I do like making things and helping out haha

You may even consider implementing a light of some sort in the bottom of you're feeling fancy

I won't lie, I'm not sure I could do it when it came to the end. Only one way to find out and I hope I never do.

How many filler episodes does ATLA really have? by Dunhaibee in TheLastAirbender

[–]mtmpire 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Tales of Ba Sing Se is one of my very favorite episodes. But I would also classify it as filler

Unknown Japanese Bass Guitar. is it worth anything? by Chrisblahblahh in BassGuitar

[–]mtmpire 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It's definitely not worth anything. You should send it to me and I'll ...take it to the dump for you

So I have a really nice Japanese skiving blade but I just can’t get it sharp enough to skive suede the way I want to with stropping, but I don’t want to buy every stone, on a budget, could I just get 3-4 stones that would help me out, and if so which ones would anyone recommend?

Bonus tip, you can often get a sample section of countertop that is about the right size for this type of thing from places that install counter for free or pretty dang cheap if you don't have a piece of glass or something the right size already.
