Comment on When You Block the Internet on Your Phone, Something Astonishing Happens Mentally
LovableSidekick@lemmy.world 1 week agoI often feel like I don’t have time for my many hobbies, then I realize I’ve just spent 3 hours on lemmy or reddit.

We need to get off the internet. Or at least off lemmy. Probably better to get off the internet more often, otherwise we’ll just find something else :/

OTOH my friend and I spent most of the weekend making this for his new apartment. The opening fits his little TV, so when he isn’t watching TV he plans play fire videos on it.

That’s so cool! Is it plaster? I really like the stone lines

It’s rectangles of 2-inch solid foam insulation glued onto a plywood frame. We carved the stones with knives and smoothed the edges with the side of a soldering iron. Then we pressed the surface of a big rock all over it for texture, and painted it with mod podge to seal it. Next will paint it gray and do some dry-brushing with black, brown and rust to give the rocks some variety. The “mantle” on top is an already varnished pine board salvaged from built-in bunk beds I made for my kids back in the day.
