Yeah, that's the best way to do it. Even with a sewing machine they still end up fraying. I use fabric glue to hold them on, and the patches almost outlast the pants.

what brand of stand up does the bassist for tiger army use ?

[QUOTE=Brain Squirmin' Like a Toad]You can spray the edges with anti-fraying spray
[B]You can fold the edges over to the back, and sew them on that way.[/B]You can trim the edges (this only prevents it temporarily)[/QUOTE]

That way looks the best even if its not fraying.

You could just wash them like I do.

some (!) you can burn ever so slightly to melt the strings together, do it with a lighter, and have either A) water or B) rain around, B worked fine for me

Moisturizing shampoo

[QUOTE=spankyone]Tried those but they don't work, I wash my hair everyday but it's still dry. Does baby oil help?[/QUOTE]

wash it every other day.

washing it every day deprives it of essential nutrients and drys it out.

Brain Toad 01-19-2005 09:05 PM

Truth. If you have a good amount of hair and don't put anything in it (gel, hair spray, etc) then its best not to wash it every day.

AIRIC 01-19-2005 09:07 PM

I have to wash my hair everyday or it gets disgusting.

I didn't read through the whole **** thing-- sorry. What's the best way to paint a leather jacket? I want to paint all the border stuff white (sorry if you don't know what I'm talking about.) Anyway, I used masking tape to tape off the **** i didn't want white and used spray paint. But it kind of ran and I got fuzzy lines and spray paint on parts of my jacket I didn't want it on. Also, how do you put studs on a jacket with lining, how do you put patches on a leather jacket, and are there any good online places to buy a leather jacket cheap (I live in missoula ****ing montana, there are very few good thrift shops around here.) Thanks for any help/ referring.

Speaking of hair, I just got a devil lock and it (in the words of losers) roolz.

Your best bet is to hand paint with a brush, that way you can get straight lines. If you are putting studs on a jacket with lining, just make the sure the lining isnt scrunnched up around where the stud is going, and just push it through. For patches, just sew them, it may be a bit harder since leather is think, but you'll get it. [url]http://www.angryyoungandpoor.com[/url] has a decent priced leather jacket, you can also check eBay.

Try Oxypads. But then again, you must be diseased if you have them in your ears.

[QUOTE=spankyone]how do you get rid of blackheads in your ears? seriously.[/QUOTE]

Yea, you should try oxypads, but if you've got dry skin, it will most likely burn your skin. You could try checking in a pharmacy for blackhead cream, or talk to a dermatoligist.

Would you just stop asking irrelevent questions. This isn't a general info thread, it's a thread about information on DIY and punk.

MOLOTOV COCKTAIL

Molotov cocktails are a classic street fighting weapon served up around the world. If you've never made one, you should try it the next time you are in some out-of-the-way barren place just to wipe the fear out of your mind and know that it works. Fill a thin-walled bottle half full with gasoline. Break up a section of styrofoam (cups made of this substance work fine) and let it sit in the gasoline for a few days. The mixture should be slushy and almost fill the bottle. The styrofoam spreads the flames around and regulates the burning. The mixture has nearly the same properties as napalm. Soap flakes (not detergents) can be substituted for styrofoam. Rubber cement and sterno also work. In a pinch, plain gasoline will do nicely, but it burns very fast. A gasoline-kerosene mixture is preferred by some folks.

Throwing, although by far not the safest method, is sometimes necessary. The classic technique of stuffing a rag in the neck of a bottle, lighting and tossing is foolish. Often gas fumes escape from the bottle and the mixture ignites too soon, endangering the thrower. If you're into throwing, the following is a much safer method: Once the mixture is prepared and inside the bottle, cap it tightly using the original cap or a suitable cork. Then wash the bottle off with rubbing alcohol and wipe it clean. Just before you leave to strike a target, take a strip of rag or a tampax and dip it in gasoline. Wrap this fuse in a small plastic baggie and attach the whole thing to the neck of the capped bottle with the aid of several rubber bands. When you are ready to toss, use a lighter to ignite the baggie. Pall back your arm and fling it as soon as the tampax catches fire. This is a very safe method if followed to the letter. The bottle must break to ignite. Be sure to throw it with some force against a hard surface.

Naturally, an even safer method is to place the firebomb in a stationary position and rig up a timing fuse. Cap tightly and wipe with alcohol as before. The alcohol wipe not only is a safety factor, but it eliminates tell-tale fingerprints in case the Molotov doesn't ignite. Next, attach an ashcan fire cracker (M-80) or a cherry bomb to the side of the bottle using epoxy glue. A fancier way is to punch a hole in the cap and pull the fuse of the cherry bomb up through the hole before you seal the bottle. A dab of epoxy will hold the fuse in place and insure the seal. A firecracker fuse ignites quickly so something will have to be rigged that will deal the action enough to make a clean getaway.

When the firebomb is placed where you want it, light up a non-filter cancerette. Take a few puffs (being sure not to inhale the vile fumes) to get it going and work the unlighted end over the fuse of the firecracker. This will provide a delay of from 5 to 15 minutes. To use this type of fuse successfully, there must be enough air in the vicinity so the flame won't go out. A strong wind would not be good either. When the cancerette burns down, it sets off the firecracker which in turn explodes and ignites the mixture. The flames shoot out in the direction opposite to where you attach the firecracker, thus allowing you to aim the firebomb at the most flammable material. With the firecracker in the cap, the flames spread downward in a halo. The cancerette fuse can also be used with a book of matches to ignite a pool of gasoline or a trash can. Stick the unlighted end behind the row of match heads and close the cover. A firecracker attached to a gallon jug of red paint and set off can turn an office into total abstract art.

Commercial fuses are available in many hobby stores. Dynamite fuses are excellent and sold in most rural hardware stores. A good way to make a homemade fuse is described above under the Smoke Bomb section. By adding an extra few feet of fuse to the device and then attaching the lit cancerette fuse, you add an extra measure of caution. It is most important to test every type of fuse device you plan to use a number of times before the actual hit. Some experimentation will allow you to standardize the results. If you really want to get the job done right and have the time, place several molotov cocktails in a group and rig two with fuses (in case one goes out). When one goes, they all go . . .BAROOOOOOOOOOM!
