...but avoid nail polish as much as you can. It can get gummy after time, chip off, and/or yellow faster than other glazes
Thanks everyone! I think I'll try the toothpaste method. It's for cleaning a flute. I know I'm not suppose to attempt at cleaning it at all, but my friend doesn't want to pay $50-$100 for cleaning a bit of rust off the head joint, which is a relatively clear space away from keys (....right? I hope nothing goes wrong...)
...I thought Korean ages were adding one to the "international" age, or something like that since it's considered as 1 during the age most other people consider as 0 (or count by months)....but either way, it doesn't matter how old you are when you get your ears pierced. I think I was slightly younger than you when I first got my ears pierced at a mall (which I had no problems afterwards with)...but I only have one piercing for each ear. My friend, who has multiple piercings, goes to a tattoo/piercing store. My parents made sure to get gold earrings even though they were more expensive to avoid infections.
edit: I believe they were gold plated or something I was only 10 so couldn't really remember. They were just really persistent in not getting cheap metal.
From Pitch Perfect? Everyone started learning that during a retreat last month! We ended up with a lot of crushed solo cups
I know there was one on here using vinegar or lemon juice or something for jewelry but I can't seem to find it
Thanks in advance!
hmmm.....usually when I work on ceramics or other 3D art I just make rough sketches from the top view, at least 2 side views if it doesn't have rotational symmetry, and maybe some close ups of how I want specific things to look (key word being ROUGH)...then I start working and see where it goes (especially with ceramics...I'm horrible at controlling natural clay)...what material are you making your doorstop out of?
That sounds like a great idea already!
The only easy thing I could think of are felt adipose...or maybe a decoupage River's Song Journal...or maybe just a notebook inside a faux leather covering for a journal to make the journal of impossible things?
Thanks!
Hayley S: Ummm.....I guess since I just went from an underserved high school to a university with one of the top science programs, so I feel behind? My last year of high school a bunch of us were hinting that our new Science Club should start robotics, but no one was really interested until this year, and since I live closest among those still involved in helping them get started...
Monika Gottindottir: Luckily it's an introductory course that a lot of engineers from schools without any robotics/computer programs take...they said you can be a bum on the street and they'll teach you everything you need to know to mentor high school students. It's a program sponsored by big companies like Google, Siemens, Zipcar, and Agilent (which I find pretty cool, since Agilent offered my high school the opportunity to do research, too), so...money isn't really an issue...and my dad worked as a technician so I know some stuff about electronics and I did help out during a circuitry lesson for 2nd graders once (...I learned some basics 10 yrs ago in elementary school).
I'm tired of complaining (myself and other people from my high school now in college) about sucky unequal science programs across my state, my country, the world. I want to actually do something about it, even if it's something as small as mentoring other underserved high school students.
So....I recently joined a robotics mentorship program at school....
Problem? I have NO experience in robotics at all! Except a quick lesson on soldering from my dad last summer....
I know that they're going to teach us everything we need to teach the high school students, but anyone have any stories? Experiences? Anything to tell me a bit more about what I'm getting myself into?

Unfortunately no..I didn't really get into the historian part of science club until a bit later in the semester (since....I was secretary and we had another person who was historian, but he wasn't at lunchtime meetings that often...and I didn't have my own camera).but the tutorial we used to make them is here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rUSTXUis_ys
My friend has the Halloween one! He was using it as an example when we were making them (since he's president of science club and had to buy the parts and plan the entire lesson)....I'm kinda sad now...I went to SF today and someone wanted to go check out a toy store, and I didn't notice the huge display of hexbugs until we were leaving
Now I want one too! I love the constellations and how some of them look like they have Galifreyan written on them. I remember we made our own at our high school science club last year out of toothbrushes and cell phone vibration motors
I'd say no as well...at least, not much. I made a bag out of acrylic yarn once with a cotton stripe, then washed it...the cotton part shrank a bit, but there didn't seem to be any difference for the acrylic yarn part of the bag.
I randomly bought a cookie wool felt kit at Daiso last week....when I started working on it, I was afraid I'd freak out my new room mate because it looked like hairballs for the first few hours...
I play piano...uh....THREE!
Daiso air dry clay and wool felt (I don't have access to an oven at school , so no polymer clay stuff for a while)
