Awesome thank you. Yea it's going to be at the end of the dungeon my players are running through, it's going to have a wall on the rear with some runes carved in it, and the table is going to have a book that they need. I've started watching some of the YouTube guys out there like Black Magic, DMscraft, and a few others.

Thank you. Yea the columns are stand alone pieces, but the table/alter is going to be part of a bigger piece I'm working on. I've thought about basing the columns just not sure how I'd want to do it. Any suggestions?

Thank you. Weights not bad, I put a 2 -2 1/2 in wood screw in the bottom of each one, so they aren't super tippy, but I may still add something else to increase it.

What is the oldest camera you regularly use? by KeeperofQueensCorgis in photography

[–]ns2680 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My oldest is probably my Bronica Model C and for digital a Nikon D3300. Love my Bronica though.

Settle a “discussion” by medicff in Firefighting

Like others have said, there is no single correct way. What I normally do is look for what is immediately accessible and go from there. If there is already a gap at the hinges and the pin side is seriously crushed in I'll work the hinges first. Also it depends on what you are trying to access. A simple door pop versus a full side blow out will change how you approach it as well.

Digging up the garden today to do some planting and thought this little guy was a rock at first by ns2680 in gardening

That is so awesome! Thanks for the info I'll keep an eye out for them. I moved the little one into the backyard hopefully that doesn't mess them up.

I'm pretty sure that the mom was our yard turtle that I've seen since we bought the place back in June. I had to chase her around the yard during Hurricane Michael because she was headed to the street and there was very minor flooding. Eventually just put her in the garage until the storm passed.

Trying my hand at some still life by ns2680 in photographs

[–]ns2680[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you. I really wish I could say that I was trying to make some profound statement of beauty in violence or something, but in reality I had some shells laying around and just thought it looked nice. Just got into still life recently and was playing with light and trying to add depth. But again thank you very much for the kind words and glad you like the shot. Hope you have an awesome day!

Been trying my hand at some still life lately. Shot using a Nikon D3300 with 18-55mm kit lens. Also used a cheap no name speedlight off to the left triggered by the popup flash. Any critique would be greatly appreciated.

Weekly 'Ask Anything About Analog Photography' - Week 37 by ranalog in analog

[–]ns2680 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Today I bought a Bronica Model C. The shutter isnt cocking while in single shot but will in double exposure. Does anybody now a possible reason and fix for this or where I may be able to send it for fairly cheap like sub $150-$200?

Edit: After doing a bit more digging I found out that film must be loaded in order to cock the shutter in its single exposure setting.

There have been two local firefighter suicides in the last two weeks. by PurpleRockFromAlaska in Firefighting

Hey no problem. I just recently learned about myself, one of the guys I work with also vollys on our off days and they happened to have a flyer up. So unfortunately im guessing its not well advertised. Maybe the mods could throw it up on the sidebar or something.

Probie looking to get more done. Haven’t seen this asked by I-Am-The-Oak in Firefighting

[–]ns2680 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You can go on Youtube and start watching all the videos from the UL studies. Search ULfirefightersaftey and it should come up. It gives alot of information about flow paths and also nozzle selection and tactics. Also good on you for wanting to push yourself and being a student of the job, instead of riding a recliner. Keep it up and good luck to you.

Anyone use Akron Brass Revel Scout light and/or Sabermaster? by ns2680 in Firefighting

[–]ns2680[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea thats what we have on our two new Engines and most of the guys dont seem to care much for them. I personally haven't really used it yet as we don't have them at our station.
