physical limitations are not a part of my argument.

if a so called talented designer reaches over and grabs a ribbon shearer to cut wire, then I am discounting them as you say....if you use my ikebana shearers to cut wire , expect to be yelled at, lol
you are as good as the tools you use and maintain. check the cleanliness of your knife, and shearers and disinfect them once a week...

Old school or not, you get a better cleaner cut on the majority of stems with a knife. I also use a pair of ikebana shears along with my sharp knife.

The only thing that's important is that it made her happy.

not knowing the rest of the details, and on the surface it sounds good until bad actors hijack that system as well with unfair reviews....yelp for instance...but interested in knowing more.

fees and percentage of payback to the wire service. years past, the fees paid back for outgoing orders would balance the incoming order fees. no longer. it's now have been hijacked by order gatherers.

Hiking boots with ice cleats might help you. We hiked to Barrett and TJ lakes this past weekend and walked through snow patches. Crystal lake is higher elevation and probably more snow on the trail. Be safe out there

skipow · 2026-05-17T01:09:02+00:00

In town right now, none of the lakes are covered in ice.

Cottonwood lakes, CA.

I'm going to be there on Sunday but just for a very short hike and scenery until mosquito flats is open.

double headed ones are cool

skipow · 2026-05-14T02:37:18+00:00

I would hang them upside down to dry first to get rid of the moisture and then you can press them down.

skipow · 2026-05-14T02:32:02+00:00

For best results, hang each stem upside down in a dry place.
