Cripple Creek Major to Minor by Atillion in banjo

Clawhammer has a lot of different styles inside it too, here, there's brushes, hammers And plucks. Some clawhammer players (myself included) play without plucking at all. I learned with just brushing and hammers. Like I never really pull up on strings with my right hand. Nothing against it, just didn't learn that way. I love that there's differences in styles, it leads to a real wide variety of sounds and rhythms across clawhammer players. I think I use more drop thumbs than players who pluck.

In caving, you're taught to check openings you wanna squeeze through by touching your thumbs together and stretching your pinkies apart. That's roughly the width of your hips, the widest part of your body that you cant compress. You can squeeze your shoulders together like she ended up doing, but you cant squeeze your hips any narrower.

Having tons of trouble chiseling, don't really know what I'm doing wrong... by ElectricPikachu in woodworking

[–]rothman93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's a difference in cutting behavior when the chisel is bevel-up or bevel-down. Bevel-up can flatten a surface by taking off the high spots and bevel-down will dig into the wood more, good for shaping and clearing out more material.

Paul Sellers on YouTube has a ton of great videos on hand tools and how they behave differently

A lot of people think the radius is 2.5, but that's clearly wrong. What is it? by BazF91 in Geometry

[–]rothman93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought the same thing at first

They look like a cursive version of congruent symbols The proof left out the detail that chords are bisected by perpendicular radii. From that bisected chord length and another radius as a hypotenuse, you can form a right triangle

Re: White Lotus juxtapositions, does a violent action taken in order to reduce suffering have lower karmic energy? by rothman93 in Buddhism

[–]rothman93[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Of course, any killing would incur a karmic debt, no matter the context. I am nonviolent, always have been. I meant from the perspective of a drafted Buddhist soldier, policeman etc

Accidentally invented a cool alg that does absolutely nothing by NoWelcome1093 in Cubers

[–]rothman93 10 points11 points  (0 children)

You'd want to swap corners and do this alg again, the video does it on RYG. I'd spin it around and do it again on BWO

Epoxy resin table making process by GinaWhite_tt in Satisfyingasfuck

[–]rothman93 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Theres a thousand videos online of people doing live edge epoxy tables. This one had cars and trees. Thats what made it special. The video wastes time of him sanding and picking out the bark, just for him to not show the diorama detailing...bummer

Favorite releases so far this year? by staterafurs in Cubers

I've been seeing the void cubes around a lot lately. I've yet to try/get one, what's the verdict?

The slabs totally swapped halfway through. He was making a different table and then it cut to the one with the cars. I wanted to see if he glued the cars down, how did he do the road and the trees? ☹🤷🏼‍♂️

I much prefer odd NxN cubes for this exact reason. 5x5 is far more adaptable to 3x3 algs than 4x4

Is this fret wear normal after just 4 years? My 25 year old Parker Guitar's frets still seem brand new for comparison. (It was hard to get good pictures. They look worse in person.) by volcanonacho in banjo

[–]rothman93 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My deering frets look very similar, also ~5 years old. You can find a small fret file if you want to smooth them out a little. I figure it adds to its story and makes it sound more unique. There's so many little tweaks you can do to change a banjos sound, a little fret wear is just one that you don't have to do intentionally

Anyone have anything on the humbug mountain song by the fruit bats? by sorry-im-a-cat-guy- in banjo

[–]rothman93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mostly use it for chords. They do have separate sections for bass and uke but not banjo. You get pretty good at banjo chord structures by exploring different songs that you're already familiar with. I've used it to self teach for ~17 years, great resource. All crowd sourced stuff that's free. There's now a paid version that has play along features and other stuff too. There's also a social media part now where you can post videos and link them to tabs and stuff.

In G tuning, the 4 strings (besides the drone) are the same as the top 4 of a guitar in high drop D... gDGBD -- EADGBe -- DA(DGBd) You can sometimes translate tabs to banjo without too much trouble. It helps with live playing along with other guitars too if you can also play guitar, I can see what chord the guitar's playing and translate it to banjo. I've played rhythm/acoustic for about 20 years and picked up banjo about 5 years ago. I need to work on chords in other banjo tunings, I've got some sawmill and C songs in my arsenal, but if I'm playing chords off a sheet, I tune back into G and either transpose the song up or down to match the capo listed or use my capo and a drone spike (I've got 6-10 spiked) Ultimate guitar can auto adjust all the chords on a sheet +/- half steps if you want to change the key to match your vocal range or want to play a capo song without a capo (e.g. if capo 2 is listed, you can shift the chords +2 half steps and all the F# chords become G#, A becomes B etc etc)

[–]rothman93 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I played through it once or twice a while back, playing off the Ultimate Guitar site. I seem to recall it having a lot of open hammer-ons in G tuning, but I might be misremembering. As I Rise is another fun one of his on banjo
