Dakkos question
If the skin that comes from the bayis under the titurah on dakkos is missing a piece or has come away from the corner on the underside of the titurah, does this affect the ribuah?
How about the Bais of Uleovdo?

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
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?
In regard to the piece stuck under the upper titura - that is indeed questionable (and seems to be kosher), but the piece that is the lower titura [as in picture] is definitly pasul, because the lower skin [titura] isnt ribua.
ReplyDeleteso how would you fix it?
ReplyDeletethe only way to fix it is to glue another kosher skin to complete the ribua - but it will not be "or echad"!
ReplyDeleteOK I fixed it. I peeled the whole underside off, soaked the skin in a cup or water for 10 mins and stretched it out. I then glued it back on and trimmed the edges so we now have perfect ribauh
ReplyDeleteas long as the ribua will stay - good. but I doubt it will stay that long, since you had to over stretch it, it will start drying and shrinking to less then the ribua.
Deleteeven if its strongly glued? I will check it again in a few days....
Deleteif you glue it well it will hold,
Deleteyou culd also take a pice of klaf cut a square in it put it over the bayis then fold it over the bottom so now you have a full new titura.
regarding or echadthe the bayis is still or echad but its not or echad im hatitura wich is a hidur that is not brought down lehalacha and in lubavitch thy did not make batim like that.
shkoyach. anyway it's still holding the way I fixed it
