Have you considered inventing a time machine, going back in time, becoming a general contractor, and then building your house but smaller? Smh, people won’t go the slightest bit out of their way to make things better these days.

Thanks!
Once it’s a solid piece I can cut it with a tile saw. That kind of saw can’t really cut you, so I just do it by hand. Once it’s in the right shape I grind it down through various grits and then polish it with cerium oxide.
Glad you like them!
Thanks!
That one used a piece of petrified wood and blue dichroic glass. That’s what gives it the color. I wish I could post videos on here, pictures don’t capture the effect very well.
Thanks! They are made of stone and laminated glass.
To make them I cut the rock and make a flat face, then laminate multiple sheets of regular glass and one of dichroic glass with UV resin, and glue it to the stone. Once everything is set nicely I shape it on a tile saw, then grind and polish the faces with a flat lap machine and a massive wet belt sander.

6·2 months agoWhen pets go they take a part of us with them, but they’re worth it all the same. In the end, all you can do is give them the best life you can and appreciate all the love they give.
Hug your pets everybody.

4·3 months agoThat would make some sense, but I’m doubtful about the bullet caliber. I’ve seen what 30-06 does to large game, and it very rarely stops even when hitting bone. Especially if he was shot with a hunting round (which are designed to flare out and dump energy) we would have seen a truly massive exit wound.
You know, I was trying to come up with a well reasoned argument as to why you’re wrong, but I realized that you had no intention to actually discuss. You came here to clutch your pearls and cry “so much for the tolerant left, they’re the real bad guys!”
So instead, fuck you.
“Won’t someone think of the dead white nationalist? Sure, he was racist, hateful, and spread nothing but misinformation and pain, but he was also a human. Therefore you should only feel sorry for him.” Fuck that. Do I think anyone should be killed for their beliefs? No. Am I required to feel sorry because his chickens came home to roost at a tremendously ironic time? Also no.
