I have 9 cups per day, so 80 is too few for me in fact

No. I made them up.
Yes
In most fossils all living matter is replaced by stone, including DNA.
Yeah but i have a scholarship that covers more than tuition
I feel very lucky to be in the UK. I get to go to imperial for less than the cheapest offerings in the USA.
Pencil after this experience
Like… Maybe a 17cm side cube… I would cast it and just finished it on my old manual milling machine
Well its response to finishing varies hugely on a sample to sample basis, due to prior heat exposure, moisture, age and other things hard to verify (more than other words) so it’s a matter of getting lucky
thank you so much
My status symbol is one i made from cigar wood
a kit but I electroplated the pieces with gold and the wood is turned by hand.
Thanks, the problem is very few people have made pens with this wood on those sites.
I used purpleheart, which is probably 4-6x more expensive than any of those in the etsy shop (I primarily make furniture, and a log of olive is even 10x cheaper than purpleheart of similar size). It is also somewhat harder to turn due to it’s density.
edit: there are some purpleheart pens but nobody really knows how to finish it properly. A furniture guy from the uni of Edinburgh once told me that you should use turpentine and a fat coat of linseed oil.
as you should
