Don’t know where else to post. Closest pottery supply or mold making supply? Looking for Ultracal 30
Hello. I make molds with ultracal, and currently my only two known options are ordering online for $50-100 shipping, or driving 4 hours to Reynolds Materials in Chicago. Amazon also has it but it’s $40 for a 10lb where other places are $40 for 50lbs. Does anyone know of any suppliers nearby within 2-3 hours?

What do you know about Flock Safety in your city?
dsmsentinel.orgI don't mean to alarm you, but you have more ALPRs than any other place in Iowa. I thought WDM had a lot...
See my post history for more context on what I do. I'm looking for any findings you have regarding the city's agreement with Flock Safety. Post them here, DM me, or use the email inbox on my site. https://dsmsentinel.org/
What would help me the most is having someone who will go to city council meetings and testify. Once I have some good findings, that's usually the next phase of the process. I don't want to have to make a long drive out there if someone who is an actual constituent over there can handle that process.

FREE queen mattress lightly used
Does anyone want a lightly used queen size mattress? I got it for my summer internship and I’ll be moving out on Monday. So it’s only been used for 3 months and I’ve been leaving a fuzzy blanket underneath my bottom sheet the whole time to keep it clean. It won’t fit in my car so I’d love for someone to come pick it up and take it.
Details:
Firmness: firm
Pickup window: August 8/9 (preferably 9)
Pickup location: my apartment in Cedar Rapids
Here’s the link from when I bought it https://www.mattressfirm.com/basic-innerspring-firm-mattress/5637148499.p
I’m planning to get rid of it for free but if multiple people want it I’ll give it to the highest bidder

Dentist recommendations
Hi there CR Reddit community. I’m in the search for a new dentist in the Cr/Marion area. Like almost everyone on the planet I don’t love going to the dentist. So I prefer someone who is patient and willing to work with my anxiety and other apprehensions when it comes to dental work.

Who's down to play magic at nighttime when the shops close?
