Beginner Piece

My first time making something with this many different nooks and crannies. 3rd project total, any recommendations to help make things cleaner in the future? I know now this one needs sanding but how can I avoid the deep marks in future

First deck advice

LGS is doing the first pauper event I’ve seen since I’ve been going there and want to get a deck together for it. Mostly they do commander and standard. My format of preference was modern but nowhere near me does it anymore.

Looking for some advice on a first deck for the format. I played burn in modern mostly for context.

Is infect viable at all in the format anymore? If not does anyone have some suggestions as to what I can build that would be pretty good and competitive. I like the look of affinity, or Dimir terror. Tron seems cool but it’s mostly flicker stuff which is new to me.

Any advice appreciated.

Raketa Big Zero

To me these simple no frills movements that’ll outlast all of us with a proper service are better than a lot of the fancy stuff we see in watchmaking

ST3600 Pocket Watch

Looking for advice on making a pocket watch with an ST3600. Would like to learn to take apart and service the movement but have a home for it but it’s too big for a wristwatch for me.

I’ve looked in the usual places like AliExpress but have not been able to find a pocket watch case. Any help would be appreciated

North London UK

Would love to get into premodern but can’t seem to find anywhere near me that does it. Does anyone in North London know a spot that does pre modern? Preferably weekends.

Where to source movements?

Based in the UK looking to get into watchmaking where should I look to source authentic movements like an NH35 Or Miyota stuff (I know this is Seiko mods but I figure you may know)

Raketa Big Zero

Wrist shot of my Big Zero. Everything I’ve done to legit check it has been fine including checking the movement. Love it even if it does turn out to be fake but hoping nobody bursts my bubble

The Elf Ball: Upgrade Path Advice

Hello everybody! Relatively new to EDH, used to play 60 card modern but nowhere near me does it now. I opened a ton of Lorwyn Eclipsed playing limited and just cracking packs. I used a lot of the Elf self mill package and a relatively small budget for singles to make what I have been calling The Elf Ball.

It is an Abomination of Llanowar deck that aims to just make the ball of elves as big as possible and kill with commander damage. Secondary win con is just a bunch of elves that can either protect the commander or go wide themselves. This style of elves feels much more fun than Lathril or Voja to play against and play yourself in my experience.

This deck has definitely become my favourite and I am looking to upgrade it into a strong Bracket 3 contender maybe even a weaker bracket 4.

I know the commander needs more evasion to make it get through blockers in the late game or avoid removal so I have been looking at [[Swiftfoot Boots]] and [[Whispersilk Cloak]]

Would love to hear what other people think would be fun to see in a deck like this!

First Build Questions

As the title says I’m looking into doing my first build and have some questions about what tools I’ll need. I’m thinking of taking a class on mechanical watches but figure something like this would be a good and affordable way to dip my toe into the hobby.

Anyone able to suggest what tools I’d need for something like this tank?
