Did you get kicked out of class?
No, it was part of the class.
Oh, I see.
Waddling, leather working. Can't think of what else we did.
Widdling*
What did you widdle?
We all were tasked with Widdling a little gnome.
uh oh
Did it end up nice?
China doesn't like money?
(dumb statement, I know)
What's going on, Tribit?
Tensions between China and the US I guess
Serpentza also mentions this in his latest video
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VlxUZmXuKVw
but now MisterTao is closing their doors... does that mean that US was its biggest importer?
we don't know what these new regulations are yet
but it must be pretty big if it makes a taobao agent shut down entirely
Wait, who's side are these new regulations on?
Fuck, is chink shit going to become illegal imports now?
@Austin sorry at the dmv. I honestly don't remember how mine turned out, I think it was decent. We all got head started with the blocks being pre cut to show the profile of the gnome.
I've got some epubs I'd like to read
Oh okay
Which is the best way for beginners. Rather than Widdling from scratch.
Yeah, I'm watching a video right now where one describes how he's cutting a basic wooden owl
Looks kind of cool
You get a printout or something to trace on, then cut out a general shape and work from there.
@kennethlujan how about a refurbished nook/kindle from eBay
I was gonna suggest one of these, but the price went up because reasons. I think a /g/ thread increased demand. https://www.amazon.com/Sony-Reader-Pocket-Silver-PRS-300SC/dp/B002MSNS4S
I have one
This bid ends in four hours. http://m.ebay.com/itm/Sony-EReader-PRS-300-digital-book-reader-used-and-tested-/122407157849?nav=SEARCH
This is better and cheaper, but it doesn't charge, so you better be smart enough to fix it. http://m.ebay.com/itm/Sony-reader-prs-600-/222447570166?_trkparms=aid%253D222007%2526algo%253DSIC.MBE%2526ao%253D1%2526asc%253D20150519202348%2526meid%253D1de9766cf7d44c97b7a2efe6ca0f36ca%2526pid%253D100408%2526rk%253D6%2526rkt%253D25%2526sd%253D122407157849&_trksid=p2056116.c100408.m2460
why do you like the sony
Because they're resold really cheap.
And they're perfect for epubs.
Bhiner?
Taobao Agent
So far MisterTao is the only one actually shutting down because of these regulations***
it's still unknown what these regulations actually are or mean
