I think on the Australia scale it means you live at least 15 min, as opposed to normal venomous (die in <2 min) or highly venomous (die when it looks at you).
The highly venomous snakes are the ones who can slither away really, really fast so that your body doesn't fall on them right after they bite.I think on the Australia scale it means you live at least 15 min, as opposed to normal venomous (die in <2 min) or highly venomous (die when it looks at you).
I did finally get off the couch yesterday. Went out for some errands, including the accquision of a two gallon gas can, Stay-bil, two cye oil, and chain and bar oil. We got the chain saw running after a few years of inactivity, which wend much more easily than it might have, then cut up a couple of fallen trees. One of them had taken out a couple of fence rails. Hauling the wood to the wood shed and fixing the fence will wait a little while, as the pair of middle aged obese men had had enough after the cutting.Nope, still sitting on the couch.
Yes, but were the parts for your daughter's chair undamaged?IMHO companies that use that much styrofoam show contempt for their customers (much less the environment.) I find it infuriating.
These were huge sheets, not useful in their original form. Breaking them down is a mess.Yes, but were the parts for your daughter's chair undamaged?
I keep styrofoam peanuts and packing material and use them for making home made sanding sealer instead of sending them to the landfill. It's 99% air so a huge volume of it melts down into a bottle of MEK.
Think liquid plastic.
Good luck!Today I get my right shoulder reconstruction surgery. Wish me luck!

Dispensed with a long-procrastinated project: breaking down the box and packaging from a chair we got for my daughter's bedroom a few months ago. Completely filled a 30-gallon trash bag with the styrofoam, and left my hands (and a chunk of my basement) like this:

After many minutes of work with the shop-vac everything was cleaned up.

Great news!Out of my shoulder surgery. All went well apparently . Hanging out for food now as I have been fasting for over 11 hours.
Remind me of a joke that says Canada has the best of American culture, English cuisine, and French technology.And what is typical "Australian" cuisine? (I assume a mash-up of typical western [US, UK, CAN, FR, etc..] foods & drink..)
Quebec is one better:Remind me of a joke that says Canada has the best of American culture, English cuisine, and French technology.
Our full scale V2 was Styrofoam, shaped and then covered with a vinyl wrap. Six years later the building where that was assembled is still foam-infested.Dispensed with a long-procrastinated project: breaking down the box and packaging from a chair we got for my daughter's bedroom a few months ago.

Melbourne is the cuisine capital of Oz. Very international. Whatever you want, even great French food! We are lucky to live here as we enjoy the food quality and variety.Great news!
What are you waiting / hoping for? Hospital food? or something more, uhm, palatable?

Well then, when you eventually get around to shipping that thing as a kit, you'll need to come up with a different approach.Our full scale V2 was Styrofoam, shaped and then covered with a vinyl wrap. Six years later the building where that was assembled is still foam-infested.

Kangaroo has become very popular as steaks, diced meat and sausages. Ten years ago it was pet food.
I actually had Kangaroo Jerky about 25 years ago. There was a college student from Australia who attended the same church I did in high school. He talked about hunting kangaroos like we hunt deer and I think some people were a little shocked. He had a hat and mittens he made from their fur and brought some jerky for us to try.
