Absolutely no idea how that happened but it is what is is #patina

Damn corporates… how can there possibly be a thousand screws and parts in an aqua toy that costs €240?

In all my years of assembling expensive toys my kids never used them half as much as they did the boxes they came in. Still to this day.

@Matt same with cats

[goosehd]

@don_pipone they have the same attention span…

@Matt I had hoped it would at least turn into some kind of father-and-son project… that lasted about three minutes. After that, I was apparently promoted to sole assembly technician while the little man moved on to more important business.

@Indigo-Alchemist I'll take your duck and raise you a Tailgunner. No clue how those spots got on there as it was in a clothes bag (but some other heavier bags stacked on top). I tried to smooth it out, but created the surrounding darker area. Unsure if I can embrace the character or not. I guess I'm NOT a natural leathers guy though lmao

[Indigo Alchemist]

@anodyne that hurts!
I washed my duck pants in the meantime but it’s still there so now I need to get that pattern all over it to make it more even looking

[Indigo Alchemist]

It’s done! Unbelievable

WTAF is it anyway?

[don_pipone]

@Giles I‘d say it‘s a sort of water play table for kids

@don_pipone 100 points. It was a Easter present but the wood is really bad quality and instead of precasted water slides it came with a rubber foil at least it’s done now…
Sorry if I bothered anybody with my post, if so this is the right thread to complain about my posts

[Giles]

I don't think you bothered anybody, and if you did, then they should not be reading this thread.....

@Indigo-Alchemist @anodyne it was my turn today. I put my shirt on the back of a chair when I was out (somewhere I’ve been hundreds of times with no issues) and discovered red had transferred from the upholstery to the inside of the shoulders and collar. Still there after two washes but reducing (and mostly on the inside so the shirt’s not dead. Still annoying though!

[Indigo Alchemist]

@ARNC Is that one of those coffee-dyed shirts they did a while ago? Hope with time it disappears

[ARNC]

@Indigo-Alchemist it is, and thanks!

[Indigo Alchemist]

@ARNC Really like that little ceramic button detail. Nice reference to the whole barista/coffee-dye thing they did.
