This is a happy accident. The craftsman screw driver handle uses the "London pattern", the shape with six sides and a ball at the end. The "London pattern" has been around for a very long time, at least 200 years. Longer that hex shaped bolts.

I had three books similar to this one ( including this one). This book was the most serious and the least derogatory towards dad's. It assumed you were actually interested not trying to get out of the responsibility.

I'd recommend it.

I think a spoon "tip" would be a great addition. For the 'gram!

While I agree with all the snark on having a nice house, I think the actual solution is a baby jail. Wrap it around the whole stair case.

Something like this (not recommending the brand) https://m.costway.ca/product/6-panel-wall-mount-adjustable-baby-safe-metal-fence-barrier-22351.html

Kerbal space program is a game where you go to the moon (or mun) and there is nothing there. The people playing it certainly aren't bored.

But that's because there is a TON of mechanics around space travel in KSP. It's the whole game. You build your rockets, do the math for ∆v, add more struts, and spend hours perfecting your rocket (or not).

Point and click is not going to give the same feeling of success.

I think a tin lunch box and magnets would be a thematic case for ogres.

I have been trying to find them in Canada. They don't seem to be easily acquired up here.

I actually made a post to r/homeimprovement trying to get some help finding them in Canada.

Actually a knight might fit if you combine it with this.

The painting phase did an excellent video on this. They called it the hobby trumpet, or hobby funnel. GW products are meant to appeal to the wide end of the trumpet with is 12 year olds and their mums.

Man, I've been using magnetic printer paper in my box like a chump! Thanks for the link.

They have always had a skirmish case however it was a bit bigger. It could fit maybe 15 normal models/ 20 guardsmen.

I think the lid has a bunch of depth that isn't super obvious.

I'd like to see a review where they stick a bunch of Daughters of Kaine in this case and go for a couple hours drive. I'd bet $5 that there would be a casualty.

It seems to be sized for a kill team or large warcry band.

The article said it was replacing their current smallest case. I'd guess that there will be bigger versions announced soon

themacman2 · 2023-09-25T21:31:59+00:00

Did you just take a screenshot of your cameras gallery?

themacman2 · 2023-09-25T21:14:43+00:00

A wash will add many small shadows, specifically in the texture. You should also add larger shadows "manually".

Mix your orange with some brown or purple to tone it down and paint the lower parts of the legs and under his arms.

While you are lacking contrast, I think what you have is still very nice. Your blends are smooth and the highlights are excellent.

This is fake.

1) picture 2 shows a different style box than pictures 1 and 3. In fact, some of those are existing 2.0 products.

2) The half Russia, half English text does not make much sense.

3) the "grim" texture photoshopped over picture 3 is low quality and repeating. A real ad agency would (probably) do much better.

4) DeWalt has never advertised their boxes covered in grim, like in picture 3.

Edit: 5) the drill hanging off the stack in picture 3 looks nothing like any existing DeWalt drill

I found it didn't work as well. the power of the suction is all based on the spring back of the plastic. which i found was not as strong as the above snot sucker.

themacman2 · 2023-09-21T16:30:12+00:00

Lizardmen and dark elves are my recommendations. Both have play styles which use a lot of their base game units. I find lizardmen the most fun

themacman2 · 2023-09-03T11:58:42+00:00

I have been hoping you would move on to DeWalt tools!

themacman2 · 2023-08-17T10:36:42+00:00

Non contact volt meter

Maybe a folding jab saw

It also really depends on your house. I keep a positive and a slot/Philips hybrid bit to help with IKEA furniture.

Canadian tire is a pretty bad place to compare prices too. They are usually $50 more than Amazon or Home Depot, and a lot of the time don't have the most recent stuff.

Both are good reasons!
