WIP/FO Posts should include pattern details (at least name, preferably link).
Relevant self-promo from community members is acceptable but will be handled on a case-by-case basis. Exclusively salesy posts may be removed.
I did consider that, but I really can't afford to spend $100 on a power supply right now.
Another idea would be to lean into them being black and use a bluing agent. $10 or so for a small bottle that will last forever and will help a new needle avoid corrosion for a long time. That’s what they use on guns for the same reason.
