Correct, it isnt. Which is why you use a high pressure regulator in conjunction with the air compressor regulator. Like the pictures and instructions show. Paintball Co2 and beer Co2 come from the same tanks/source. So its as safe as any metal container holding 1000+psi of compressed gas...

The rope is just a plain hemp rope. Should be available from any hardware store. I got a router last year and have been trying different projects with it (just finished trimming a newly installed window with curly fiddleback maple). Dovetails are my next challenge to tackle.

Just wanted to show a set of mugs I did for a wedding this weekend. Hopefully you can make out the depth of the etching in this image better.

Excellent points! 1. I've done it both ways. Personally for sandblasting I'm leaning towards weeding the image after it is applied to the substrate. For every other application I always weed the image first. 2. The hinge method (which I don't outline in the instructable) I have found works...

I do this in my home :confused:. Last I checked the Cricuts only allowed you to cut stock images from their very expensive cartridge based image library. For $200 you could get any one of the value budget cutters out there, like from USCutter.com. With those you could cut any image you...

I finished a rough draft of how I etch glasses and created a seperate post as not to clog this one: https://www.homebrewtalk.com/f51/sandblast-etched-glass-345566/ But here is a link to directly to the write up: http://www.instructables.com/id/Etching-Glass-with-a-Sandblaster/

I play for the scenario paintball team Pub Crawling and with a name like that we know our way around a pint or two. There was some interest about a writeup on etching glasses with a sandblaster from this thread here: https://www.homebrewtalk.com/f51/diy-pint-glasses-345017/ So here is a...

Shouldn't be a problem. PM me with details.

The cutter is a Graphtec CE5000 and the Sandblaster is this one: Sandblaster/. The stencil adheres directly to the glass and is a single use. But thats ok because they are cheap enough to get/make lots of them. I actually tried using a higher quality vinyl that I use on cars and it sticks...

I have a vinyl cutting machine that I use to make my stencils. If anyone is looking for stencils, decals, stickers, etched glasses etc drop me a line. Attached are two images of a sandblasted mug. Its hard to tell from the poor quality cell phone picture, but that etching is about 1mm deep.

I've been experimenting with a sandblaster and have had awesome results. I'll get a post together about it at some point.

I use both paintball tanks and a 20lb bulk tank. I have not noticed any difference in my beers no matter which tank is used. I typically get my paintball tanks filled for free at events I go to. My bulk tank I get exchanged at the Airgas distributor down the road from my house. Side note...

I do a coffee RIS and I use a starter for my yeast. I've been using Rogue's Pacman yeast for all my ales and imperial ales with a lot of success. My current RIS is ready to move to the secondary this weekend. Here is the recipe I use...

I make a russian imperial stout and I generally add almost a gallon of french pressed coffee. If your coffee tastes really bitter or unpleasant in a coffee cup I find that it will taste equally, if not more so, unpleasant in a beer. I add my coffee to the secondary. The long aging time of...

That certainly sounds like the correct way to do it. I am admittedly a hack. Also I didn't have either a ZCI or a throat plate for this particular Dado set. The table saw is a hand me down and has been in the family for about 30 years. I just got it and this was my first project on it. I'm...
