![]() ![]() I figured as long as I have all the swatches, I can always get the color matched down the line. We have not finished painting our whole house and may want to repaint some areas in the future, but I think we will always want to stick to this color palette. I did not grab even chip from the asterisk collection, but picked out all the specific ones we like. ![]() We like many of the sea glass type colors in this palette, too. Our laundry room/craft room was painted in a color from the asterisk palette. Many we have already used, some we are planning to use, and the rest we may use some day. We prefer colors in the star palette, so I grabbed every single paint chip with a star on it. We based our whole house color scheme on Martha’s color key symbol system and it has never failed us. I was just concerned the paint colors may not stay forever, but we love the color selections so much. Have you ever grabbed such an obscene amount of paint chips?Īll reports claim Home Depot will continue to carry the Martha Stewart color palette, but I was not taking any chances. My hubby thought I was mildly crazy, as I stacked up over an inch of paint swatches in my hand. This is what we get for taking over a year to finish a paint project and not getting enough paint for the job in the first place.īefore we left Home Depot that day, I went and grabbed every paint swatch from the Martha Stewart line with the star color key symbol and several with the asterisk color key symbol. Is there anyway the Glidden paint color and sheen can match the Martha Stewart paint we already started the project with? Or will we have to re-coat the entire room to even out the color? We are crossing our fingers for a match, but preparing for the let down if it does not match. We have not used the “Zinc” paint in the family room, yet. The finished walls matched the “Enamelware” paint chip as closely as expected (there is always a slight difference when comparing a paint chip to a painted wall). Had you put the Glidden paint in a Martha Stewart can, I am not sure if we would have been able to tell the difference. We redid our guest bathroom in Martha Stewart’s “Enamelware” mixed in Glidden paint with a satin finish. I am happy to report, we were impressed with the quality and coverage of the Glidden paint. Paint is not an area of life where we care to experiment. We are pretty adaptable to change, but when we find a paint brand we like, we try to stick with it. ![]() We were worried about the paint quality, coverage, and color matching. We have never used Glidden paint, and with no option for getting the matching Martha Stewart paint, we had no other choice. The Home Depot lady recommended mixing the Martha Stewart color into Glidden paint. This was the current state of our living room, without a drop of Martha Stewart paint to spare: Of course we were one gallon shy of finishing the two-story living room that has taken us over a year to complete. I immediately felt a sinking feeling in my stomach. When my hubby went to the counter to have the paints mixed up, they broke the news to us. We found the perfect “Enamelware” blue for the guest bathroom and we grabbed the swatch for “Zinc”, which we are using in the family room. This weekend we went to find paint for the guest bathroom and grab another gallon to finish off our two-story living room. Since the Martha Stewart paint chips are still in Home Depot, which we walk by every time we go in the store, we never gave it a second thought. Just a week prior, the New York Post reported Home Depot was dumping the Martha Stewart paint base. Here is a post on Martha’s blog in early January, where she kind of ignores the discontinuation of her paint, but promotes her color palette being mixed in the Glidden paints at Home Depot. So, it had been several months since we actually purchased paint. We will stock up on a couple paint colors for various projects all at once. ![]() You might think we have been living under a rock, but we actually just tend to buy lots of paint infrequently. We were shocked to learn Home Depot no longer carries Martha Stewart Living paint. ![]()

![]() This naturally means it looks a little rough around the edges and new features aren’t likely to arrive any time soon, but the ones already in place are still effective at getting the job done and the program is delightfully functional as a whole. MonkeyJam is slightly (and sadly) neglected, having not had an update in four years. MonkeyJam is the only free stop motion animation software we’ve been able to find that is still operational and worth trying, and by free we mean it isn’t just a free trial with the need to pay for access later on. The full version, although expensive, represents great value for the money for a professional suite. This is one of the pricier pieces of software on the list at $299 for the full version (which comes with controller hardware), but it deserves a mention here since there is a free trial which is well worth checking out. A similar app exists for the iPhone by the same studio, albeit under a different name (search for iStopCamera on the App Store.)

It’s updated regularly and is already packed full of brilliantly implemented features. IStopMotion by Boinx Studios has long been the go-to software suite for both amateur and professional stop motion animators alike. Smoovie offers a free trial for its desktop version (the full version is priced at a budget level $39.99) while the iPad version is currently $6.99 in the App Store. To boot, the iPad version makes good use of the tablet’s camera, meaning the entire production can be conducted right from within the app. While it’s not the most powerful or beautiful software ever released, it’s ideal for getting to grips with the basics. But if you’ve already got all your image stills lined up and just need some free or budget software to process them, then here are… The Best Stop Motion Animation Software and Apps Smoovie (Mac & iPad)įeaturing precision editing, onion skinning, chroma key effects, direct-to-YouTube publishing, and an intuitive interface, Smoovie is specifically designed for stop motion animation. ![]() If you’re looking to get started in stop motion photography, you might want to start with our guide on the basics of the craft. ![]() But what about when you want to work on the go and experiment away from campus?

It also ensures that your table will last for years. A sturdy cabinet helps to keep your playing field steady and level when players lean on the table. The cabinet affects not only the overall look of your table but also its performance. Hardwood is a far sturdier and more attractive option. The cabinet may be made of hardwood or medium-density fiberboard (MDF). While the playing surface is the most important component of the table, the overall construction of the cabinet - the legs and frame - is important as well. Most resin finishes are a quarter-inch thick and will last for decades. It should be poured over the wood, resulting in an even surface that is free of bumps or bubbles that could affect play. However, you should carefully research the quality of the application of the resin. Other resins are less common, which makes your decision easy. The most common finish on modern shuffleboard tables is epoxy resin. Take note that while manufacturers will list the thickness of the playing area, this usually includes the resin as well. The wood should be around three inches thick. Maple is the best and most expensive option due to its appearance and its resistance to warping. Popular woods include North American maple, white maple, poplar, and birch. Playing surfaceĮven though the wood playing surface is coated in a finish, the type of wood can still affect the gameplay and the look of your table. Once you figure out the table size and scoring system you want, there are several other features to consider, such as the materials used to make the table and the finish on the playing surface. Before you purchase a table, have some idea of which type of game you want to play because most tables only have one type of scoring grid. This typically requires more accuracy and presents a different challenge. Some tables have a triangular scoring grid with six-point sections. The traditional scoring lines on a shuffleboard table denote three sections (the three-level grid) worth one, two, and three points. Avoid anything narrower unless you’re looking for a small tabletop model. The width of the table is important as well, but this dimension isn’t as likely to vary. A longer table is typically more challenging to play on. You need a minimum of two feet of clearance on all sides to allow players to move around the play area and line up their shots. ![]() The right size for you is a matter of preference, but it’s also highly dependent on where you plan to put the table. Shuffleboard tables vary in length from around 8 to 22 feet. You should also consider whether you want a table with traditional scoring lines or alternative scoring options. The most important factor when shopping for a shuffleboard table is the size of the table and how it will fit in your space. Any points that would cause a player to exceed 21 are instead subtracted from their score. One popular variant requires players to reach exactly 21 points. ![]() Like many table games, the rules can vary greatly. Play continues until one player reaches 21 points. Scores are based on which section of the board the pucks are in. After each player has used all four pucks, the player with the puck farthest down the board wins the round and scores all of their pucks that are past the other player’s farthest puck. It can be played by two people or by two teams of two players each.īoth players stand at the same end of the table and take turns sliding their pucks from one end of the table to the other. Shuffleboard is played on a long, narrow table, usually with a wood surface. Here, we’re talking about the table game, not the outdoor sport, though there are many similarities between the two. Shuffleboard can be played casually and without keeping track of points, or it can be cutthroat and competitive!

![]() ![]() The standard driving mode, MySense, automatically adapts the hybrid powertrain to the driver’s style and conditions, switching between electric power and the engine. Three driving modes are offered: Pure (all-electric mode), MySense and Sport. While it doesn’t deliver a thrilling ride, it does feel cool, calm and collected. The hybrid is capable of driving up to 28 miles at speeds of up to 83mph in pure electric mode. Our F1-inspired E-Tech plug-in model combines a reworked version of Renault’s 1.6 petrol engine with a 9.8kWh lithium-ion battery, two electric motors and a six-speed automatic transmission. In addition, front and rear parking sensors, rear-view camera and a 360-degree camera with bird’s eye view all help when reversing into some tight spaces. In the ADAS department, the Captur incorporates a suite of technologies, including adaptive cruise control, traffic and motorway assistance, blind-spot warning, lane departure warning, automatic emergency braking and traffic sign recognition. In addition, the Dynamic Speed Compensation automatically adjusts volume and equalisation on the move, hence a seamless listening experience without the driver needing to constantly make adjustments. Occupants can tailor the audio experience to their tastes, switching from a neutral, studio-like setting to a more immersive sound. Integrated into the side of the boot is the optional Bose audio system, causing no reduction in load space. Instead, the sound is channelled to the passenger compartment through a patented duct system built into the car’s structure. Fitted to a Renault for the first time, the FCA offers bass frequencies without the need for a conventional large enclosure. ![]() There’s also a new compact subwoofer – the ‘Fresh Air Speaker’ (FCA). There are also two cupholders in the front console area plus two in the back, integrated into the central armrest.Ĭompared with the audio system in the previous Captur, there are now nine speakers rather than seven, with two additional tweeters in the rear doors. ![]() The glove box has an unusual pull out tray-like design instead of a hinged door. A sliding front centre armrest conceals a fairly deep storage area. The front door storage compartments can each accommodate a 1.5-litre water bottle. Boot capacity has been boosted by 81 litres to 536 litres, thanks to a sliding rear bench trading rear legroom for luggage space. In addition, a movable floor allows the boot space to be configured either for maximum space or to create a flat load entrance with hidden storage beneath the floor. The 60/40 rear seatbacks can fold down completely to give an almost completely flat load floor of 1.57m – 110mm more than in the previous Captur. Rear legroom has been boosted by 17mm, thanks in part to re-designed front seats that also benefit from slimmer, comma-shaped headrests to improve visibility. Size-wise, the overall length of the car has increased by 110mm, providing a spot more room for occupants and their luggage. ![]() When combined with the 9.3-inch infotainment display it gives the Captur one of the largest screen combinations in its class. It allows the driver to choose their preferred set-up, including turn-by-turn navigation instructions displayed directly in front of them. A reconfigurable instrument cluster is available as an option for S Edition models. The latter allows drivers to choose from eight different LED colours that provide a calming glow. Other creature comfort and convenience features (depending on the trim level) include an auto-dimming rearview mirror, rear privacy glass, high-beam assist, and an ambient lighting pack. This elevated centre console incorporates the ‘E-Shifter’ gear selector on top, additional storage space and wireless phone charger below. One of the highlights of the interior is the new ‘flying console’ available as part of the optional Comfort Pack for S Edition models. The steering wheel has a smaller diameter allowing an improved view of the instrument display, as well as re-designed backlit controls adding to the ambience.
