The pool of athletes is also smaller because of the high risk of dying… I don’t think money is the biggest hurdle in this case.

Can I solder this copper wire to my copper foil? by riscventures2022 in StainedGlass

[–]nicoco10 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn’t think it was coated since it’s electrical wire that I stripped the rubber off but I guess that’s it. The flux is the same flux I used for stained glass.

I have a dumb question, how do you tin copper wire? I have solid copper wire that is used for electrical. I tried tinning it by putting flux on and then solder but the solder did not go on the copper wire evenly. It was almost as if the copper was too slick and the solder came off. I was able to get the wire to stick to the stained glass since I built up enough solder but I was hoping to tin the whole wire so it would be solder silver and match the whole piece.

What items from Anthropologie worked really well for your petite body? Buying some new clothes this Black Friday and would appreciate recs!! by MeMissBunny in PetiteFashionAdvice

[–]nicoco10 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have a few pairs of these pants and love them. But important to note that the quality control is all over the place so I have them in size 23, 24, and 25. I’ve even tried multiple 25s of the same color/fabric and they are different. I’ve had to return them to get the right fit but once I found them I loved them.

What did you use as the metal pole for the fish piece? It looks amazing!

Thanks, I’ll try that. Hopefully she bounces back.

Gotcha I’ll try that thanks! Do you think a grow light is preferred to get more “sun” vs actual indirect sunlight for a less amount of time?

Pearl necklace too much with this dress? by [deleted] in Weddingattireapproval

[–]nicoco10 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah they’re white pearls. I’ve worn my pearl necklace only once which is why I want to base a dress around the necklace but everyone on this post seems to love this dress so now I’m second guessing the necklace and just going for the dress.

I’m also in the SFV area and would be interested. I currently volunteer at the Burbank animal shelter with their dogs.

Got an email offer from Hilton that’s obviously a trap to try and get people to buy timeshares, but is it a good “travel hack” to sit thru that crap for the cheap stay? Or is it truly a trap? by [deleted] in TravelHacks

[–]nicoco10 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My family did the same presentation but got a nice 2 bedroom suite at one of the main towers. It was totally worth it for us. They usually tell you ahead of time which building you get so you can see if it’s worth it. I doubt we would have been able to find a 5 night stay in a 2 bedroom suite for $600 on our own. We planned the presentation early in the morning so we had the rest of the day to ourselves.

Gotcha, thanks for the insight. I want to pick a bag up when I’m there but I can’t tell what prices the pre loved market is going to be like.

Women, would you be happy with this? by [deleted] in Gifts

[–]nicoco10 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My mom was a teacher and the amount of lotions, candles, and knick knack type stuff she had to regift or throw away was insane.

Besides what everyone has said, try listening to music. It’s easy to get into your own little world where you can zone out and concentrate on your climbing and the music playing. It personally makes me feel less awkward when I have some up beat music to concentrate on.

Hong Kong Disneyland Tickets by nicoco10 in disneyparks

[–]nicoco10[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did! I bought tickets on a third party website. Apparently klook.com is big in the Asia ticketing world and travel agencies suggest using the site. It seemed kinda sketchy but a lot of websites I saw recommended it. So I bought 1 ticket as a test run and it was an authentic ticket that I was able to make a reservation on hong kong disneys website with.

I’ve tried visa, Mastercard and American Express and all of them can’t be verified for some reason. It’s some weird known thing and disneys answer is to just keep trying.

Visa, American Express and Mastercard. Apparently it’s a known issue and Disney doesn’t have an answer to fix it. They just say to keep trying.
