I've done that. Most horses love it. They line up when the truck pulls in. It's like spa day, and everyone's getting a pedi!
D2... for... quietness
Sound. I want sound. Where's the sound?
Speaking from many years in AA; "Show me a man who's spent any accumulative time in prison, and I'll introduce you to a man that's read the Bible."
You get an upvote just for using the correct there and their. Thank you. My English thanks you. 😊
I've never heard of those before. Wow... I might be on to something. Thanks!
It is an all sport river. But I build these pretty close to shore. So no one is boating (hopefully) in less than 1 foot of incredibly rocky water.
Found the cop.
Let's hope a few more of them go on submarine rides.
It's not that deep right there. I swim out there all the time. I just gotta wait for it to warm up. River still only in the 50s (F) teens(C). Soon though!
Someone's not coming home.

It took about 4 tries to get the proportions right. You are very correct about them not wanting to stand up. They're like opposite weebles. The final version is quite stable, though.
Thank you, unit conversion bot.
Don't be discouraged by time. I just turned 40. You can do it.
Every time I post something I've made, I get this comment. And it's the number one comment. So you get the gold sticker today. Take a +1 as I shake my head and walk away. Thanks, dad. 😊
Thanks!
I think the weight of a finished set is prohibitive to people purchasing it. I have unhealthy anxiety and thats how it came out. 😕
Too long to type out here but... I would consider myself on the low end of expert. I've been hobby blacksmithing for 20+ years and as a profession for almost 10. Almost anyone that can swing a medium sized (3lb~) hammer could do this. I started at 19 in my driveway with basically garbage. Dm me if you're really interested. I'd be more than willing to help you with ooooodles of information to get started. It's hot, dirty, HARD work. But damn I think it's rewarding.
Popular Opinion: The best New Orleans brass band out there. Very heavy soul influences. (Think Church meets James Brown) Extremely talented Jazz-esq musicians.
😝
Many ways to play tetris now. That was called tapping. And even that's not considered meta anymore. Theres a technique called rolling thats come about in the past couple years. In which the player taps all four fingers on the back of the controller in a wave or rolling pattern, allowing for a much higher button input rate than just the press of a thumb from the front. Im really good at tetris. Insanely good. And this makes me want to throw my controller in envy.
Feel this in my bones.
Maybe the sword is the only item that can damage the Preistess.
I think I could totally help with that!
I volunteer to lead that march.
I am a blacksmith and I came here to say almost those exact words. Thanks. If you leave a piece of steel in the forge too long you CAN burn the steel. Oxidizing is rust. Oxidizing is also burning. When you burn it, you're forcing oxygen into the pores of the metal. It burns out all the supporting minerals. Carbon, magnesium, etc, that make it steel. Eventually all you're left with is iron oxide. Which is just crumbly rust.
Bathing in diluted fire. You mean like tanning beds? Or THE SUN!!
Thank you! I know exactly what you mean. I almost want to wear white gloves when I pick it up. 😆
