Warped Titora
I would like to hear some good eitzahs from the olam on fixing a warped titora tachtona (that is bending downwards) of pshutim mehudarim?
Thank you
How about the Bais of Uleovdo?

Ink, Kosher vs. non-Kosher
We all know that there is no ancient source that requires ink to be מן המותר בפיך . Possibly, as said here before, because in the olden days ink was always מן המותר בפיך and the question was never raised. It was probably self-evident. Nowadays, no decent Rav will approve an ink which is not מן המותר בפיך . Who was the first one to raise this question? Was it raised because of animal ingredients or because of non-kosher wine?
The forum is back online...for reference and research purposes.
Dear Readers and Members, The forum has been down for over 6 months because the domain name (www.stamforum.com) lapsed and it is no longer available to re purchase. Although this forum is now defunct (it has morphed into several whatsapp groups), I have had many requests to put it back online because it contains so much information (over 1,800 posts and thousands of comments in the discussions, on a wide range of topics related to STa"M). I have therefore put the forum back online at blogger, so the address is www.stamforum.blogspot.com. The forum lasted for a decade...not a bad effort! It was pretty popular back in the days before whatsapp and managed to receive over a million hits in it's short life. It was one of the only organised forums in the STa"M world and definitely the largest in it's heyday. I would like to thank all those who cobtributed over the years, particularly the early members who helped build it up. Thanking you all, Eli
just use plyers and bend back into shape
ReplyDeletefor gassos it is harder, you need to use presses
there is a chemical called shoestretch found at shoe repair stores.
Deleteyou spray some on to soften the leather then place it clamped between two pieces of wood that fit for 10 hours it should be flat.
for gassos i clamp it between two metal plates for 24 hours but I make it wet first to soften it
ReplyDeletePliers almost always does the trick for peshutim/mehudarim. Just be careful not to crack or break the titura. As mentioned, gasos is another matter and care must be taken since the pressure placed on the titura when clamping it can cause the bayis shel rosh to split open at the top.
