Did you not get an acceptable response in your last thread?

>no skills no experience

get some lego and lay them out on a grid, add blocks to each point until all are level, then put a plank of drywall over it

Sand to even out the floor, OSB to make a new floor.

Looks like shit to me.

Plywood veneer isn't all that strong, only staining it is not going to give you a very durable desktop.

I used some wood filler to cover the sides (some bizarre shit which was powdery until you applied pressure to it). Painted the whole thing in acrylic paint and finished it with a poly (-urethane) clear coat.

If you want the best durability&chemical resistance finish with a two component poly, although I didn't. Poly is expensive enough.

What's the problem with the plywood anon?

>>1079764
>>1079769
I understood now. And no. I never planed to use what you call "plywood veener" even less considering that crazy idea of mine.

How the hell does glass permanently fog? Are they double pain?

How much money do you want to spend? That would be the deciding factor for me.

>>1079739
>pain

Fuck I'm an idiot.

>>1079739
double pane
some pieces of glass have water vapors
some pieces are stained by the moisture absorbing stuff (some sort of white powder) that migrated from the margins
basically you have a metal frame that holds the 2 pieces of glass and keeps the space between them airtight
the frame itself has some silica gel (powder) type of stuff in it to absorb the moisture that goes in (no matter how well it's built) after years and years
that container that has the powder will fail after a while and you have stains between the glass panes

money-wise, I'd like to spend as little as possible but if vinyl windows are better (as far as insulation, durability, esthetics), I'm OK with spending more

I have a hammer drill from amazon that is Skill brand. I was skeptical, but I've used it to drill holes, to place mounting studs in concrete slabs several times over 3-4 years and never had an issue. $50 maybe

5J is adequate for nibbling a groove into plaster and concrete blocks, 50J would be more for breaking up a road slab or drilling granite, and it might be uncontrollable for the fine work.

consider a wall chaser. it's less versatile but more elegant.

>>1079237
do you want to buy a fucking impact hammer to chisel a few cables in?

if you are proper sparking then a decent 2-3j rotary hammer will drill your holes and chisel out channels.

if its a one off go to a tool hire shop
if you are too much of a pussy then get a bolster chisel and a lump hammer for about 1/20th the cost

Here other plushie with the shape of the snout I would want to try to achieve

>>1078658
I know nothing about sewing.
Guessing you'd just take a seam ripper to the face, trim off about as much as you pinched, and then sew it back up. Cannibalize a nose from the dollar or thrift store?

>>1078658
You're going to have a tough time reshaping the snout. I won't say it's impossible, but it's really not easy.
But you could embroider a nose on fairly easily by hand.

The clothes or the large breasted manikin?

amidoinitrite?

>>1076889
the best one is any one that is plugged in

the flex shaft is nice to have

the mini chuck is a good accessory

any bigger jobs get hit with the 41/2" angle grinder + cutting disc

>Do you guys have any suggestions on a good or the "best" dremel tool?
As I've seen it, the bigger brand names do work better than the cheapo generic stuff.

The variable-speed ones are best for general use. The single-speed ones are shitty for general use, IMO.

If you sit at a work table a lot, then you can get a variable-speed floor pedal, which is very nice to use. But it can only be used with a single-speed Dremel; it will not work with the dremel models that have their own variable-switch on them as well.

I bought one of the flexible shaft things and hardly ever used it. A real Dremel-brand one, and it knocked about 25% off the top RPM speed.

Pic related: someone IRL tells me these table-clamp mount things are really nice to have, ***IF*** you have a spare grinder you can leave in there all the time. I don't know that this particular one shown is that good, it's just one I saw on aliexpress.

I have a Black & Decker RTX-B, it was $25 and is awesome. No reason to pay the Dremel tax.

It takes the Dremel flex shaft and other crap too.

Slab of metal+ grinding

It's been 2 days now but I'm thinking I should give it a week?

Looks good op. I want to make a weed box too. After 2 days you'll be totally fine.

>>1078949
nice man,
2 days seems like long enough but the weed should be in its own air tight container anyway

Amperage kills. Voltage hurts.

>>1075969
Let's say hypothetically 10 amps of 120V versus 5 amps of 240v applied directly across the chest

Which is more likely to be fatal

>>1075968
yes

>>1075969
>voltage hurts
no it doesn't, you can charge with a few thousand volts of static, it only hurts when you ground yourself because it discharges all in one go i.e. the current.

also "amperage" fuck off.
amperage through you depends on the ohmage of your skin.
