Progress on the first one. Anyone got tips or tricks? Waiting for a hook knife to come in from Amazon so I can finish up the hollowing. For roughing I've been using a gouge with the kuksa wedged into a log, as I don't have a vice here yet
@RevStench and a few other guys should be able to give you a few pointers
@nils awesome. I'm working on some carving myself. I'm making a sign for a member, I don't carve often enough to give pointers though.
I did come into some oak 1x that's going to make this thing sweet as.
Everyone who has offered to help others in any academic area has received an AE (Academic Expert) role. So if you have a question (homework or otherwise) you can preface it with <@&387091385075105804> to get the attention of this group!
Chalk it up to tism or OCD, but I've become a big fan of to-do lists over the years for activities, studies, and exercise. I've been doing them monthly for a while now and have found that looking at them every morning encourages me to stick with the things I pursue. I want to share this month's as a template that some of you more diligent guys could use for your pursuits.
It's satisfying to cross stuff off the list every day.
Nice, I need to start doing this. I've been getting pretty lazy lately
My working hours got cut in half, so for the first week I didn't see any harm in just browsing the chans in all my free time
should add a sales skill for all the IE sales bros
Do we have any car experts here?
Yea there's a mechanics category
Ive been in the car buisness for years sales since 2014 finance since this year
@this_that5553 might fit better in <#387059792432201729>
or just <@&387091385075105804> can someone answer @this_that5553 ?
Not sure if humanities or stem or what
@sigruna14 Want to start a language learning channel here? Or a german learning channel?
Memrise is great
@this_that5553 a few of us were considering that. I’m going to be picking up Latin this semester and I know a few people were saying they’d like to as well.
Language learning is a hobby of mine. I simply dabble though. Would love to focus on one language in particular with a group of us. Maybe french or german for us and we can practice with our euro bros haha
@Kingfish
Yeah absolutely. I have to learn a language for my degree and I went with Latin. Maybe not the best choice but I couldn’t resist
@this_that5553 bro I'm the same. I love language, but I've committed to one and I've been teaching myself Ukrainian for the last 3 years.
Yeah, language learning is great. Helps with self-confidence and talking to people as well
Same, but I dabble and can't commit
Need to fit it into my routine
We could start a group here
We should ^
We should set up a language exchange club for GI and IE. I'm sure most GI people know English really well, but perhaps they want practice. @Deleted User Did you notice any bad English over there?
Most didn't, only higher ups and those living in Belgium
English wasn't very commonly spoken and only somewhat understood
The leaders speak fluently however
Is that a prerequisite for leadership?
odd i thought almost all europeans knew english. especially younger ones and those in western europe
This is good. I think Germans are better with English, but either way, it would be great to have this language exchange program. We could have a discord server called “LBGTQ-Muslim Language Exchange” or something
I was part of a Rhodesian discord and before it was deleted they had several documents gathered. These were mostly do it yourself stuff found on chans but I'll leave them here for any who haven't seen these or are interested. Sorry in advance for the way these are organized, I had a hour to copy the links from discord and paste to my notepad before all was gone.
I'll do you one better. Something I picked up for my personal collection
Whomever want to learn French, I lived in Montreal when I was a kid for a while and speak it pretty well, so you could practice with me if you want
