Fox Tail Pencil CaseJanuary 1, 2021 at 11:05 PM I'd always wanted a fox tail keychain ever since I joined cutout and keep but never could make a good fox tail, until now.
I live with a roommate who makes furry suits and they gave me some "ruined"faux fur (it looks ok to me other then a few bend marks and stay strands). We were also trying to relax so we thought some sewing on New Years would do the trick and they taught me some tricks to sewing a fake fur tail.

Like Clarify tech specs: Screen on Onyx Boox Note Pro vs Onyx Boox Note 3.January 1, 2021 at 9:29 PM Hi everyone,
Looking to compare hardware of Onyx Boox Note Pro vs Onyx Boox Note 3.
Obviously Note 3 is newer chip , faster UFS 2.1 storage, 5G wifi , OTG , fingerprint sensor.
Can someone confirm the claim that screens are different, meaning:
Note Pro: Glass front screen ( E Ink Mobius Carta screen )
Note 3: Plastic front screen ( Eink Mobius Flexible Screen with Flat Cover-Lens )
If so , is note pro screen in theory more fragile than note 3?
