No, it was part of the class.

2017-03-27 19:21:39 UTC  

Oh, I see.

2017-03-27 19:21:54 UTC  

Waddling, leather working. Can't think of what else we did.

2017-03-27 19:21:58 UTC  

Widdling*

2017-03-27 19:22:08 UTC  

What did you widdle?

2017-03-27 19:22:24 UTC  

We all were tasked with Widdling a little gnome.

2017-03-27 19:23:22 UTC  

uh oh

2017-03-27 19:24:45 UTC  

Did it end up nice?

2017-03-27 19:27:16 UTC  

China doesn't like money?
(dumb statement, I know)
What's going on, Tribit?

2017-03-27 19:42:10 UTC  

Tensions between China and the US I guess

2017-03-27 19:49:12 UTC  

Serpentza also mentions this in his latest video
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VlxUZmXuKVw

2017-03-27 19:49:27 UTC  

but now MisterTao is closing their doors... does that mean that US was its biggest importer?

2017-03-27 19:49:50 UTC  

we don't know what these new regulations are yet

2017-03-27 19:50:25 UTC  

but it must be pretty big if it makes a taobao agent shut down entirely

2017-03-27 19:57:02 UTC  

Wait, who's side are these new regulations on?

2017-03-27 19:58:12 UTC  

Fuck, is chink shit going to become illegal imports now?

2017-03-27 19:59:46 UTC  

@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.

2017-03-27 19:59:48 UTC  

what chink e-reader do you know of

2017-03-27 19:59:57 UTC  

I've got some epubs I'd like to read

2017-03-27 20:00:12 UTC  

Oh okay

2017-03-27 20:00:13 UTC  

Which is the best way for beginners. Rather than Widdling from scratch.

2017-03-27 20:00:40 UTC  

Yeah, I'm watching a video right now where one describes how he's cutting a basic wooden owl

2017-03-27 20:00:44 UTC  

Looks kind of cool

2017-03-27 20:00:52 UTC  

You get a printout or something to trace on, then cut out a general shape and work from there.

2017-03-27 20:11:30 UTC  

@kennethlujan how about a refurbished nook/kindle from eBay

2017-03-27 20:19:15 UTC  

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

2017-03-27 20:24:27 UTC  

I have one

2017-03-27 20:40:32 UTC  

why do you like the sony

2017-03-27 20:41:47 UTC  

Because they're resold really cheap.

2017-03-27 20:42:02 UTC  

And they're perfect for epubs.

2017-03-27 20:53:43 UTC  

@Tribit Bhiner is doing business as usual though

2017-03-27 20:54:24 UTC  

Bhiner?

2017-03-27 20:54:32 UTC  

Taobao Agent

2017-03-27 20:55:13 UTC  

So far MisterTao is the only one actually shutting down because of these regulations***

2017-03-27 20:55:29 UTC  

it's still unknown what these regulations actually are or mean

2017-03-27 20:55:36 UTC  

Maybe they were doing illegal stuff, who knows
