And here I was running out of ideas of what to encapsulate!
BTW if someone has an idea of something cool to do with this, I'm all ears.
I bought phosphorescent pigment with the plan to make little canisters of ooze from TMNT 2 but not sure what to mix the pigment with...ideally something non flammable, I've tried water but it wasn't super conclusive.
Machined it in two parts using my former workplace's CNC (I only gave it this shape because I had access to it).
The dark line you see is where the parts are glued together, and I added a black laminate interlayer thinking it'd give it some style.
Then did what felt like a year of sanding for such a small object, and some oil to finish it.
I messed up the grain orientation though and the smaller hole in the back has been broken and glued back on already
Interesting! To each their own I guess, I enjoy most of these things when used in intelligently. Kind of like what an artist's style in a painting adds to the scene.
I had a different experience with avatar 2, saw it in 3d and apparently variable framerate and my eyes were getting lost everytime the framerate changed by a noticeable amount.
Dude me too! If you ever do please post it here, I'd love to follow your process!
Thanks!
Oooh yeah well finances are helping me behave in that regard (งツ)ว
Recently dismantled a TV and its backlighting consisted of thin cfl tubes. This gave me the material to try something I've been curious about for a while!
I sealed some yeast in a little section of tubing for a friend's birthday (his last name is Baker). Kind of a shitty gift as i doubt it would survive as a keychain but I had fun making it (and its failed predecessors).
Here are the other attempts, from left to right: pepper, red and blue food coloring, yeast 
I sense i'm missing the joke, but in case it'q a genuine question: it doesn't, it's for weighing about 60grams of rice :) And thank you!
Plug one side of the cable on the left of the box, the other side on the right, press the button and whichever light doesn't come on means that part of the cable is faulty.
I learned a lot from my bad decisions :)
Great idea!
I made this a few years ago and still use it regularly! The "spoon" side fills up with 1 portion of rice and the hole in the handle can fit 1 portion of spaghetti. What do you think?
Edit: sorry about the double post.. I thought I had backed out and lost the first one so I posted this one, and I just noticed the first one went up
Made this out of a plastic bottle after seeing a YouTube video (can't give credit unfortunately as I can't find it anymore).
You can make it into any shape that the bottle will fit around (and can't be much smaller than the bottle since it will only shrink so much).
I used a piece of wood as template, cut the top of the bottle, put it around the piece of wood and shrank it with a heat gun. I then cut off the excess and shaped the closing mechanism.
It took a few tries to get it right but I've since used the technique to make containers/protections for several objects and I'm very happy with the results!
If you want to try this, be aware that the tightest you shrink the bottle around the template, the hardest it will be getting it out! I suggest making the template in atleast 2 pieces, this helped me a lot. (In this example I first pulled out the small wooden tab with pliers, and once out the bigger one came out easily).
Nice! Sounds very handy, I actually didn't know this type of extractor existed.
Oh Nice thats not bad at all
I didn't know about Farmell, thank you for the link!
I wanted this without knowing I wanted it, it makes so much sense.
It would make this community much more interesting to me than it already is, what a great idea!
