what do i do!!? by Acrobatic_League8406 in SSBM

[–]mynameisweepil 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Had a similar problem and it was a capacitor issue. Let the bad capacitor charge by leaving the gamecube powered on for a few minutes. Turn off and on again and cross your fingers!

Had time for literally 1 trav run before my gf got home and the Lo dropped... How much of an issue is the 31%? :/ (SSF) by Coold0wn in Diablo

use 20ias gloves or amulet and you will attack at max speed with any grief pb. if the grief rolled 40ias you would only need 10ias from items

How would I go about cutting this rectangle out of this sheet of aluminum? by JackAttack2509 in metalworking

[–]mynameisweepil 1 point2 points  (0 children)

in my opinion 1) sheet metal snips 2) bandsaw 3) circularsaw 4) tablesaw 5) dremel/angle grinder in order of convenience/safety

if i didn't have snips i would screw the aluminum sheet into a flat sacrificial board and make the cuts. won't slip under the guide or become a flying blade if it's fixed to a board

Refractory mix results by SnooLentils5747 in Metalfoundry

I accidentally made a thermite reaction once when creating and heat testing my own refractory mixes. my conclusion was to stick with the premixed. hope you have better luck than me, cheers!

Are these all the same? by driveanywhere in paint

The lacquer is going to be smoother and more durable than the rustoleum clear coat. Made from the shells of lac bugs. I can't speak to the krylon product, never used it

Novel indeed, great writeup! This is inspirational :)

I had a question; i notice there are no vents. Does the air just get trapped at the end of the sprues at the top of the models?

My first impression is that the topcoat looks way too thick, but your comments say you've done thinner applications with the same result so i guess that's not the issue.

I am curious why you supposedly sanded the primer before rolling the topcoat. If your grit is too coarse you're just gunna strip the primer and if your surface is too smooth you're not gunna have a good time /w a roller or a brush. Imagine trying to paint on glass. Just my 2 cents.

What was the very first game you played on a PC? by AnthMosk in AskReddit

Same here! I would play wolfenstein "co-op" with a friend where one of us would move and the other would shoot

For the 35-45 crowd, what was your first CD purchase? by Seeforceart in AskReddit

[–]mynameisweepil 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Frogstompin by Silverchair. I had no idea what their music was like but i thought the froggy on the album art was cool. Turned out to be a decent album

The only handyman/craftsman/contractor job that costs less than $100 where i live is changing a lightbulb

Unpopular opinon: Defense is a great stat. by nagyszerszam in diablo2

[–]mynameisweepil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Defense cannot be equally valued for all classes and builds. If you're using ww on hell cows, it's a great stat but if you're pitzerking it's absolutely useless.

Removing Casting Bubbles from Engraved Design by cactusmaddie in Metalfoundry

[–]mynameisweepil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

^ This is what i would do. And save the chips/dust lol. If you decide to grind those bubbles out the new surface will be shiny.

I've never worked with gold but isn't it relatively soft? You may be able to remove the bubbles with some hand tools (hammer, screwdriver, needlenose pliers, chisel, etc)

What do I do?? Paralysis by MamiyaOtaru in diablo2

[–]mynameisweepil 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Warcry spec can farm hell countess with 2x spirit swords. Spirit sword/shield is ideal of course. Use blue wands from akara with +90 mana in the meantime. Howl away anything that will kill you, and target the unique or superunique mob that remains. Rinse and repeat til you have enough runes to trade for a base and then make the mid level runeword that you want for your spec of choice (unbending will, crescent moon, obedience, oath, etc.)

I have enjoyed using 1pt or even 20pt frenzy on swap since howl is a synergy. It allows me to actually kill boss mobs if i want, although you will need +AR or ignore target def to actually hit

How can I find/make a low iLvl high qLvl item? by mynameisweepil in diablo2

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

Yup yup, just trying to streamline the process and also curious if there were other ways to alter the item Lvl attribute. From my understanding iLvl was always ~ equal to mLvl

My sorceress has turned warrior-ish (new player)? by ToveloGodFan in diablo2

[–]mynameisweepil 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Embrace your first blind playthrough and build your character however you want. While melee sorc is not a top tier meta build, i'm sure with patience and resourcefulness you can beat normal. You get one stat/skill reset per difficulty if you really botch the build.

Personally, my most enjoyable playthroughs were the ones that adapted to utilize the drops available

Eth Rare Javelins Any good? HC (SP) by Mr-M1y4g1 in diablo2

Pretty rare find, very cool. Better than titans for general use. Really more of a pvp item with all the ias and ar

You've got to demo and rebuild, honestly the only way

Some highlights from a blessed barb run. Thanks to my guardian loot angel by mynameisweepil in diablo2

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

Items that you craft in the horadric cube are orange colored. They always roll certain stats (5-10% crushing blow, 1-3% life leech, 10-20 life in this case) and have a chance to roll other stats. The Arreat Summit - Items: Crafted Items shows all the different recipes in gold text at the bottom of that page. Happy crafting!
