All I see is a way for the rich to rig the game even more than they already do so they get richer while the poor get poorer.

It's about control.

I haven't posted anything or really commented but I always upvote!

I should start posting though. It's practically summer here so maybe I'll try some melons.

Yes, they are originally from here.

No Dig by Charles Dowding

A vegetable gardening book emphasizing the merits of no dig growing.

fujiwood ,

I would say it's primarily for people who are interested in growing vegetables.

I only see a pen and part of a spiral notebook.

This is all very impressive even though I'm not a Mod of anything.

Show if a link is already posted when creating a post, and where.

This feature kinda blows my mind.

Great work!

100% pure Tung oil.

Once a day for a week.

Once a week for a month.

Once a month for a year.

Once a year every year.

From my personal experience on adding pure tung oil to cutting boards after about 15+ coats over a few years(I know that's a lot of coats over a long period of time) there is now a thin solid surface on the wood. It honestly looks like a thin film finish but it's all natural.

It is also water repellent to an extent. I think of it as a natural wood stabilizer. The oil penetrates and fills the wood pores then hardens. This prevents moisture from penetrating easily. Now I only apply tung oil once a year to my cutting boards and twice to my spatulas and wood handle knives.

The mineral oil beeswax method is the convenient way of doing it, if anyone wants to use this method I don't blame them, but it's my opinion that adding layers of a tung oil over a longer period of time is the proper way of doing it.

When you use mineral oil and beeswax you will remove the top layer after a few washes. Some of the mineral oil will seep further into the wood but will not protect the exterior(the cutting surface). When I used only mineral oil and beeswax I would have to reapply that finish monthly as the wood would visibly dry out.

I'll leave it to OP which method they choose to use. One is more convenient in the beginning and one is more durable over time.

fujiwood OP ,

The biggest reason was form factor then price. I wanted something that could fit my pocket comfortably. I already have a dedicated pocket knife and screw driver so while it would be nice to have better options those weren't too much of a concern.

fujiwood OP ,

I had the same problem. The oxide makes it gritty and stiff so I also added oil. Luckily, just by using it over time most of the moving parts are smooth. I agree that I'd probably also buy it again. It fits my main needs perfectly.

fujiwood OP ,

Honestly, that's an interesting idea. I don't really like collecting but if I ever had to buy another one that could be an option.

fujiwood OP ,

Leaving behind a tool is never a good day. Especially when you don't notice untill the next time you need it!

"Corsi-Rosenthal box" my ass. Woodworkers have been using this poor man's filtration system for years before he ever "invented" it.

What an ass to think his idea was novel enough to slap his name on it.

Edit: This isn't an attack on the person I replied to. Just the scientists who are trying to take credit for this "invention".

fujiwood OP ,

Thank you, I'm enjoying it.

I use a notebook to write down tasks, to-do's, lists ie grocery, material or supplies for those tasks. I'll also write ideas or crude sketches. The other day I was waiting for carry out with my niece and we played dots to pass the time.

Most of the time it isn't anything special. I don't journal(I've tried) or write down philosophical things(I haven't tried). Just basic daily things.

fujiwood OP ,

Thanks! It's the Everyman Grafton Mini Twist. I like it except for how slippery it is. They released a matte model that has a textured finish. I would recommend trying that one over the original.

It takes Parker style refills and I currently use Ohto PG-105NP.

Why does nobody has a phone or USB Stick in their pockets?

I just browsed through the top 100 posts or so here and you guys have amazong stuff that I've often didn't ever seen in my life but nobody has a phone or a USB drive. I feel like this community is from 50 years ago. Or is there an actual reason?

fujiwood ,

Ahhh, that's why you don't see the USB drive.

EDC: Upgrades ( lemmy.world )

My Orbitkey was beginning to fray since I've had it for over five years. I made a replacement for the old canvas from 5 oz veg-tan leather. I've had my old wallet for a year and half. It was the first thing I ever made and I've never been completely happy with it. It worked well enough but there were small details that always...

Everyone always asks what is gravity.

No one ever asks how is gravity.

Poor gravity, always helping us keep our shit together but no one ever truly understands the weight on gravities shoulder.
