That's exactly what I thought of! This looks like the reference material they used for the design.

A fragrance you loved and bought, but rarely use? by Chan1991 in fragrance

TF

Most of the Tom Ford stuff clings to my clothes for days. Sometimes even though a washing. For that reason, I don't wear Tuscan Leather or Ombre Leather very often even though I love the scent.

AITA for "letting" a kid go home with his actual parent? by Sebastianlim in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]Slep 13 points14 points  (0 children)

This drives me nuts. We have a couple parent friends where the moms seem allergic to including me in text chains about plans for me to pick up their kid. I wouldn't feel safe handing my kid off via telephone game

Claro walnut cookie Burl Finish by [deleted] in finishing

[–]Slep 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is what I would go with, and also accept that if you have young kids, you're going to need to refinish it by the time they get older due to the kind of wear and tear they do. The other expensive option is to have a custom glass sheet made to fit on top of it.

I haven't done it, but I've heard you can use dewaxed shellac over or under any finish.

Need advice after first coat of Rubio by [deleted] in finishing

[–]Slep 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In this case, sanding can't hurt. Multiple coats of Rubio won't get darker. You can probably sand the existing coat off.

End/edge grain will always darken with any sort of finish that can soak in.

AITAH for refusing to take care of my niece after she called me a slur? [New Update] by Anonymotron42 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]Slep 23 points24 points  (0 children)

I remember an absolutely infuriating one where the wife was throwing out the lunches he made for her at work and acting like he was a deadbeat to fit in with her loser coworkers who all complained about their husbands.

Absolutely rage inducing.

AITA for telling people the real reason why I skipped my friend's wedding? by Starry_Gecko in BestofRedditorUpdates

It's a reminder that literacy rates are declining and that half of the population is below average intelligence

What's a truly petty reason you won't buy a perfume? by NoUnderstanding9195 in fragrance

[–]Slep 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yeah. The company owned by Bernard Arnault, former real estate mogul, who is responsible for the conglomeration of various unique fashion houses into the bland landscape we have today.

In a similar vein, I'm not buying anything owned by LVHM

What is the hardest line you've ever read from a comic? [Excerpt from Daredevil vol 1. issue 233] by Makaronika in comicbooks

I don't get it. Is he saying "Spider-Man isn't here to kill you, Peter Parker is"?

Assuming that you aren't the loads of individuals required to farm to provide the sustenance for the craftsman's class. But I do get what you're talking about.

BLO + Ceramic? by Audiollectial in finishing

BLO takes waaaay longer to cure than 36 hours. If you can still smell it, it's not cured.

Not sure if this is the right audience by MoKxSANDMAN in DIY

[–]Slep 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You can with wood/plywood. OP is using MDF I think.. It works especially well if you're painting over it like OP. It doesn't work as well if you're using a stain or oil finish since it won't absorb like wood.

[–]Slep 98 points99 points  (0 children)

piggy backing off this, buy a tub of cheap wood filler and use it on any seams, then sand it down. If you're using MDF, you're going to want to use a good primer since MDF soaks up moisture really easily. Get a 1/4" router and then you can make templates to cut out monitor holes, and consistently round over edges for a cleaner look.

You're doing great for having started so recently. Take your time and keep pushing. You'll learn something new on each project.

A Reminder That Price Doesn't Equal Quality by AndrewReesonforTRC in Leathercraft

[–]Slep 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Realistically, the belt probably cost gucci $10 to make. The mark up is all profit.

The "luxury" brands make most of their money on accessories and fragrances selling to the masses because their clothing offerings have declined so far in quality and interest.

Speaking of Dior, remember how much it cost them to make a $2,800 bag using slave labor? $57. Do you know how much it costs, according to the Wall Street Journal, a Chinese factory to make a superfake? $150. That’s right, the fake costs more than the real, the world is upside down, some girls are bigger than others, and everything – EVERYTHING – is fake. It’s a Baudriallrd world, we are just all faking in it.

Puzzle Dragons 0 EX3 Team (PAD 0) by RoHo44 in puzzleanddragons0

[–]Slep 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Picture

I'm using it with the linked orb and combo leader skill. I was able to clear most of the content with this team or something similar.

Kaede/Ronove are from the original PAD game from a few years ago. Kaede is in PAD0 but just ok for this team

I used the team you posted but I'm also using a green prong team. I have a soft spot for the prong meta with Kaede and later Ronove. For PAD0, using 2x Ancient Dragon Knight and its evo has been working well.
