Twisted metal style!

My mom tried a similar tactic to get me to eat green beans saying my eyes would turn blue. I took a bite ran to the mirror, so she said they switched back and I'd have to eat more faster. She knew the gig was up when I came back with her hand mirror...

I bet you really hate Santa Clause, the Tooth Fairy and the Easter Bunny.

I'm going to be working on turning an old wooden ammo box into a bathroom shelf. Maybe I can work this into the design.

Looks nice, minus the hose clamps... A small shelf with holes drilled in them that are the size of the jars would let you drop the jars into the shelf for an elevated look.

One issue I have with my Hulu plus is a lot of newer tv shows are marked "Web Only", so I can't stream it to the Roku I have set up in my bedroom. I have to watch it on my PC hooked up to the TV in the living room, or get out a laptop.
That and the damn ads.

They make cards that are gray that you can photograph to help find proper white balance. When you start editing photos you just open up the white balance adjustment on the image with the gray card and use the eyedropper on it to set the white balance. Doesn't always work perfectly, so you may need to tweak it a…

What do you use to edit photos?

Expiration date warnings should show up in your list under the notes column.

I do, but only because I have a computer connected to my TV

White balance needs some correction, but yeah it looks fine.

That's a good point. Often though I use prime to get free shipping on something I would otherwise have had to drive to a store to purchase anyways, so in a sense it can definitely save you some cash if you're only buying things to actually need.

Agreed, but they take time and attention to detail. Labor is always included in the cost from the manufacture, and is passed on to the customer when purchasing a belt. If you're going to spend hours creating one, then it raises the question on how you value your time.

We have these stackable bins from the container store, and they work pretty good. The only thing I would change is to make the lids snap on/off. They just lay on top, and are kind of useless for anything but being able to stack another bin on top.

I actually don't manufacture the belts myself. I provide designs and instruct factories how to make the belts. Belt minimum order quantities are typically around 600 pieces.

A few things that a $100 dollar belt probably has that this one does not...

I've been designing and making belts for major retailers for about 10 years, so I can say that while this isn't a bad deal, it's definitely not cheaper than buying a similar belt already made... Depending on where you shop. In most cases it can be, but not in all.

100% leather does not mean it is one ply full grain leather such as the belt being made in this tutorial. Almost all cheap belts like the one in your link are made from thin layers of split leather, and usually have a bonded leather (think particle board, but leather) core.

Isn't there another way that you can cause the reaction without adding in crystals? I think the retail versions have something in them that snaps quickly, and that starts the crystals to form.

Those types produce an exothermic oxidation between iron and oxygen when the package is opened. They are not made from sodium acetate, and are not reusable.
