Good idea. If it floats, it's witchcraft. Burn it. If it sinks, it's witchcraft getting what it deserves.
If Bladite makes one of those with his new hand tools, it will advance him to Level 8 Warlock, I believe.

looks doable

If bladite makes one of those with just hand tools he may be in the wrong profession! Especially if he figures out how to do it without any plans or instructions.

I wouldnt burn it if i had one :D

Unless i woke up with purple wings or some such crap....

Won't waste bacon either. That's why Ethan is in charge.:D

In all seriousness, I envy your recent acquisitions and look forward to seeing what you come up with. I would love to find a traditional wood worker around here to learn from. I wonder if the Amish have apprentice programs...

some are recent. many are not. been at this for a while... only really have had the energy and motivation to bring it to a head...

yeah, i don't know a lot of people locally, but i'll find them and ...

just ran into a guy "getting out of it". has a lot of spendy tools. not so sure about that, but we'll see...

Ehh... I'm with ZZ on this. A small dash of oil seems to help. I've done both, I like the bit of oil. Do it however you like it, I do. Besides... Don't care what Alton thinks. Emeril uses oil if you want to name drop.. Guess what? Don't care what Emeril thinks either.

Yah, do it whatever way you want (even if you're totally wrong ;)). IMO oil in the boil makes for pasta that is a bit slimy and doesn't hold sauce well. But that's me, and I am no celebrity chef.

there is something you can put in the water, as a surficant, to keep boil overs more rare and controlled, yah?
 
My brand new PS4 has decided it no longer wishes to have a disk in it and keeps ejecting them on it's own. I did a quick google search and it seems to be a common thing that I can fix myself when I have time. If you're thinking about getting a PS4, you might want to wait a couple months and see if Sony has fixed the issue.

the screws are very tight / stuck... need to figure a way to get them moving. i'm thinking "warm / hot day, and tung oil? and ... hot wax?"

A good soak in a bucket of 50/50 BLO and REAL turpentine. Not the stuff made with naptha. Check with paint stores for it. Submerge for a week or two and let them drink it up. Be good to go.

Even Ethan's mom says no evidence they could find of oil preventing boilovers....tho they did say you could add a tablespoon of fat if desired to help prevent clumping. I find if the pot is big enough to keep an almost rolling boil going, spaghetti won't clump anyway, just from the agitation - rolling - of the water. Works for me, anyway.
 
This thread is getting closer to completion... Looking back for the snarkiest snarks and there isnt a while lot of snarking each other this go around... So far Guyon stinking up the the continent of the Americas is some of the funniest stuff, and its not really snarking...

We need to pick it up, id hate to run a RNG.

Hurt feelings, crush spirits, and make the other 'heads your -BEEP-.

:D
 
Morning, time for work :(

WW, you can always be my -BEEP- I promise I'll be gentle, in the creepy, stand - out side- your window stalker kinda way. :D
