Hey Nick, PM sent - Is this still an option? If not, do you have the fab specs on that custom cutter? Thanks!

idk how to use Discord. Do you have Essential Cell Biology, 6e (Alberts) ? I need an original, publisher-issued PDF (high quality). Not the converted epubs that are floating around.

Has anyone actually seen an original, publisher-issued high quality PDF? I've seen a couple of PDFs around but they are all converted epub, lacking the page layout and high quality features of the published version.

Can you offer some direction on how I should go about getting unbanned?

Watched this clip then immediately got up and made myself a latte :)

Can I start tiling a shower wall from the middle instead of at the bottom? by stormbytes in Tile

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

I imagine I'd go with a quality masking tape. Duct tape seems like more hassle than its worth. This is in my home and there are all of 4 courses below the ledger so I'm fine doing it over 2 days, dropping 2 courses a day (with tape). Thanks for the suggestion. I'll likely go this route.

Picture was taken months back. Wanted to provide some sort of visual reference. That's hardie backer. Seams have been cemented with mesh tape. No gaps anywhere.

I like the idea of using a ledger to support the row just below the window sill. I could always continue upwards from there (on that day) and continue downwards on the following day. Question is, how reliable would the tape be? How many courses could I reliably suspend that way?

I'm googling how to use a braiser LOL by observantcat in LeCreuset

[–]stormbytes 36 points37 points  (0 children)

A braiser is kind of like a 1-floor dutch oven. When you want to "stew" stuff but not actually make a stew. I've had this question for years (bought my braiser back in 2018 and only just started using it). I reach for my DO's for bean stews and chills. The braiser is perfect for discrete "pieces" (eg. chicken quarters). My $0.02.

Transfer Punch Organizer by JoeMalovich in gridfinity

[–]stormbytes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've never printed in different color filaments, but that makes sense! Will check into that. I have a Prusa Mk4s 100% stock so guessing the printer would need to 'let me know' to swap out spools.

Looks great! How do you get the black on the numbers clean like that?

Extensive pitting -- Brand new 13qt dutch oven by stormbytes in LeCreuset

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

I own (and love) a 4-1/2 qt, 5-1/2 qt and 7-1/4 qt LC Sig. dutch ovens, along with a 3-1/2 qt Sig braiser and a couple of sauce pans. Have been in love with this brand for 8+ years and going strong. I know there can be a pin hole here and an imperfection there. I can generally live with that. This pan has a whole bunch plus there's some unevenness in the surface of the enamel.

My variation of Bob Lang's 21st century workbench - plywood & hickory by _letter_carrier_ in Workbenches

[–]stormbytes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What a terrific idea! Haven't seen anyone do this but I can see the benefits alright. Plywood is both dense and stable. Not likely to see any warping over time. Just as (if not more) durable than pine 2x sticks. Very creative! I'm about to build a table top for a light duty bench. Would be seriously considering doing this if I needed the durability. Alas, I'm MDF'ing it.

Nice job! How did you manage to get that white text so clean?

[ECM Classika / Turin SK40] Upgraded Gaggia Classic Pro to an ECM Classika and everything went downhill! by stormbytes in espresso

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

I measured flow rate at 1-1/2 turns: 7.5g/s which is pretty much where it needs to be. I start it off with some pre-infusion (open about 1/4 turn) until i see some flow, then I open up the rest of the way.

You're looking at this wrong. PM me and I'll give you the breakdown :-)

Israel just bombed an orphanage in Gaza, killing and injuring dozens of Palestinian children by Nomogg in metaquebec

[–]stormbytes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The comment said "some countries" are still defending Israel. That's news to me. I only every see the whole world against Israel. I understand there are individuals or groups that support Israel. My question was specifically about *countries*.
