Vodka is normally 37.5% to 40% alcohol by volume (ABV) (75 to 80 US proof, respectively). On the other hand, Everclear is bottled at 60%, 75.5%, 94.5%, and 95% ABV (120, 151, 189, and 190 US proof). https://thebottledprices.com/everclear-vs-vodka/
the residual is water...
Yup - I've always been a fast healer - since being a man of action - and a very active boy before that has led to good blood circulation - so wounds tend to mend quickly -
- It's been one month now since the main open heart valve fix and bypass was done - when my chest was cracked open - then resealed - and that does seem to be healing rather well - it doesn't hurt much or at all when I cough rarely - but can hurt a bit if I sneeze - and the outside wound is all healed looking with a thin foot long scar - straight down my sternum -
Where they opened up a pocket/flap surgically - top of my left pectoral muscle - to install the pacemaker is still a bit sore - especially because just a week or so ago - it had to be reopened - a wire pulled out of the heart - and another secured in its place for the corrective surgery to happen -
I'm trying not to overextend particularly reaching movements - when some pain kicks in - telling me to 'watch out - this could tear a scar' - and staying away from food markets - where the normality of buying heavy goods and schlepping them home - could reopen part sealed wounds - so reversing the healing process - by leaving my backpack at home - and avoiding carrier bags to carry stuff in - when I go walkies - but its always a temptation - and hopefully won't be long before I can carry stuff for miles again - enjoying the weight of it on my back - and thru my legs as I walk - perhaps another month or so now - fingers crossed

Don't know if you folks have a need for stackable strainers, but here are several you can choose from to achieve your results.
One could also solder their own screens if industrious enough... 500 mesh is pretty fine.

Wood Frames
Commercial grade high quality tongue in groove wooden silkscreen frames for screen printing. As a general rule you should leave a minimum of three inches around your design for smaller format frames, and four, to five inches for larger format silkscreens. Please use this reference chart to help...

I build them out of these for flat screening I like a rotary tattoo machine with a cork over the needle to vibrate the mesh.

I would bet that overproof vodka would do much the same. Soap and water after, and any smell should be gone.... I see now that this concept has already been discussed, ad nauseam. Musta been way too many gulps (of air). LOL

Carmelized potatoes are delicious. I would fry them until they are browned then throw in the rest of the ingredients. I make a wicked cast iron fried/mashed potato side dish that winds up being the entree.

I am not sure if you use Edge, Chrome, Firefox, etc. Personally, I avoid Edge (and Chrome) like the plague. They are all gleaning information from you to sell, "anonymized" or what-have-you. I don't trust any of em really. Must resist and fight the Borg!! The EU just sued Google for taking and using information that they gleaned from Chrome, when they said they couldn't and wouldn't do it! I actually never use Edge, though Microsoft has made a way that you cannot delete it like other browsers. Convenient, eh? I've never downloaded Chrome. Personally, I think that Firefox might be safest, but what do I know. If by favorites you mean your bookmarks, yes, they are transferable from device to device, if you sign in with your address. Like anything that can be a good thing, or a bad thing. GL figuring it out!

My boy Zig finally got to play off leash with another dog today. He was the happiest I have seen him. The other dog is old and grouchy but Zig was gentle but provocative and got her to play. It was the first time my wife got to see him interact with another dog. She almost has PTSD from our last pup who was an asskicker so she was really happy to see Zig play like a dog should. Happy wife/pup-happy life.

Check out Brave. Firefox always gives me what I perceive as biased search results, Brave supposedly doesn’t collect info on your activity. The search function is a bit clunky though so I mainly use it for general surfing but if I need to search for something where I don’t care about bias(everything apolitical), I use Firefox. Fk Google and Edge.

Ingenious ingenuity. Repurposing a palm sander as a source of vibration is brilliant and consistency from batch to batch is likely rock solid compared to manual vibration.Here is how I dry sieve mine for the first cut:

I got my idea for the Grinning Reaper design, based on the short-lived Resin Reaper that briefly appeared in the market place, and Roger, a […]graywolfslair.com

The key to Firefox is going in and personalizing the settings. Do not let them suggest anything. Kill all browsing history (there are Firefox add ons). And don't send them any information, anonymized or not. A much better experience that way. And I use duck duck go for searches. Similar results as google, without the tracking. Get rid of everything else other than allowing suggesting Bookmarks. And be aware that nearly every time there is an update, however, they will try to "revert" you back the way "they" want it. So you have to remember to go in and put them back your way. I tried Brave for a few days and discarded it pronto. It was way too clunky, and caveman for me.

I've been wanting to ask this question for a bit now and here seems the perfect chance to do so.
I have been making my capsules from bud/ trim for years infused into coconut oil.
Since no longer consuming any vegetable oils, would tallow work as well?
Edit:
or... any animal fat for that matter
The closer to liquid at room temperature the greater and ease of solubility. So my college chemist mind sayz.
I've always used a old fashion flouro and a T20 light...I was using so little light the cuts hardly survive...he told me to let them root in bright LED's...I keep the covered dome along with my regular veg plants, give them far more light and I see 100% rooting withing 7 days...What was the lesson, Boo? Those look dang healthy and always keen to speed up the process. Got a link (here)?
O, my goodness! That is nuthin' short of epic! [bows]I’ve been scoping out my kitchen and found something that would work for a small amount. I do have a set of bags that I use for the dry ice kief that I watched a utube where they used the bags to make dry sieve too. Still the dry ice stuff looks a lot easier.
‘Thanks tons tho for your offer… it may have been my only chance to get something useful from joes place
this was my last kief session. I used Pute‘s recipe. It was the second time I made it. It wasn’t pretty and golden like his but we loved adding it to our smoke and tasty too. I added flower which made it way good-er so I’m adding flower again this time along with trim and popcorn

What a difference from a year ago; you had problems with problems on them and were about to chuck the whole thing.
Now, you got a fargin nursery going. And having fun.
It is obvious to me why I never had any success at all: It is the equivalent of someone sitting down in the pilot's seat of a jetliner and trying to get the plane running, taxiing, takeoff and flying... then landing safely at a destination -- all without knowledge of aircraft.
As a pilot, I consider that to be a fair comparison of me to youse guys.
Only it's my arse in your hands.
I think they look beeyootiful.
