I hope you're proud of yourself.

I can read this in two, equally correct ways

[–] Crackhappy@lemmy.world 6 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Aw crap. I meant it sincerely. It's awesome and you should be proud.

Nice one.

Are you being haunted?

My immediate reaction as well "This guy should sweep up the sawdust and then burn some sage."

Do you think It would be microwave safe?

[–] FiniteBanjo@lemmy.today 6 points 6 months ago

A few times, sure, but eventually it's gonna burn up. It's ignition temp is only 482 Fahrenheit, low even for wood, compared to milk jug plastic at 650 F or glass at 2550 F. Dielectric Heating is known to reach higher temperatures very quickly but unevenly.

This looks like it would benefit from Kintsugi.

Not that it's broken, but it would mesh well with the wood.

Ok, but let's talk about the beast in the top right corner...

Unknowingly made a Skyrim prop. Nice.

It's nice looking and will work for putting solids into. But I'd be afraid that if any liquid was put in a red oak bowl that it would eventually become a sieve.
