Normal resting position.

When you were little, how old did you think people used to get, and at what age did you consider a person old? by Golfnbrew in c/[email protected]

[-] [email protected] 12 points 1 month ago

When I was in grade school in the 60s, we had a math problem... "how old will you be in the year 2000?" I calculated 42 and thought "OMG, I'll be nearly dead by then"...

Clicking is not a good sign for a hard drive. Yup, time to replace.

Where will you be on the 7th of July? by Golfnbrew in c/[email protected]

Well, one of Trumps many reckonings is proposed for the 8th, so I may be out buying liquor to celebrate.

Trump leads Biden in election rematch, Reuters/Ipsos poll finds by Golfnbrew in c/[email protected]

These polls are bullshit. Trump lost by 10 M votes, and he hasn't converted any new friends. No new love for the man. Only deserters.

What's your favorite instrument that really gets through to you? by Golfnbrew in c/[email protected]

OP didn't say "musical"...

Woodworkers, will you please share some of your favorite tips and tricks with us? by Golfnbrew in c/[email protected]

[-] [email protected] 7 points 6 months ago

Salt, as it dissolves into the glue. But I imagine a couple of sand grains would be fine, as long as you keep it away from the visual area, since sanding might bring it out and scratch the surface

What's a food you forget you like? Then you eat it, and wonder why you don't buy it more often? by Golfnbrew in c/[email protected]

This... Toasted and slathered in butter

What is one fact that someone shared so confidently but turns out to be false? by Golfnbrew in c/[email protected]

Assuming she makes it through her first twelve years of school...

How many of you have tinnitus/hearing loss because of using headphones/loud music over the years? Did you do something about it? If you don't have those, how did/do you avoid getting them? by Golfnbrew in c/[email protected]

[-] [email protected] 8 points 9 months ago

As an older guy, growing up in the 60s and 70s, loud concerts, loud stereos, and working with power tools in the construction trade, we never thought about hearing protection. And now, my tinnitus is so bad sometimes I wish I could snip the nerves and become deaf. It's LOUD inside my head. Please protect your hearing!

Sometimes when I poop there is blood. Anyone else? by Golfnbrew in c/[email protected]

This is how my wife found out she had colon cancer. Go to a doctor NOW!

Glue line problems (lemmy.world)

No photos, just a question. When I do a glue up piece for a lamp or bowl, after I am finished, it's in the house, and after a week or two, I can feel the glue lines. Finished smooth as a baby's butt, satiny, and a week later,... Ugh!

Do I need to postpone the finish work, from lopping off tenons to applying the finish (poly, or wax, or danish oil, etc)? Remount after two weeks and re-sand?

Way more work than a blank, and more precision is required. Lessons learned, mistakes made. But not bad for a first time.
