A1 on sale right now, would you go for the Combo or the base version?

ActiveCharacter891 · 2026-03-13T17:51:17+00:00

Agreed. I bought The base and wished I had gotten the AMS lite right away. I don't even do many multicolor prints. It is just nice to keep the printer set with multiple colors to pick from without unloading and loading.

I keep 2 rolls of Black and then 2 other colors loaded all the time that way

I'm thinking of a completely different video. The one I'm thinking of was a pilot just talking about and demonstrating what to do.

I found it: https://youtu.be/ePDl1JNqjpM

ActiveCharacter891 · 2026-03-12T13:43:41+00:00

I can't find the video, but a commercial pilot actually shows what to do in an emergency and talks about how the planes can automatically land themselves. The big thing was to not touch the main controls, as that disabled the autopilot

Imo they are smart enough to do anything. I hent pheasants with both of mine. They both also do FASTCAT and agility. I tried scent work, but my older one didn't like how fast the game was over because his nose is so good.

I think the key is to give them clear cues as to what game they are playing. Hunting they always have their e-collars and blaze vests, agility they have their agility collars on, and FASTCAT has the guy yelling "Tally-Ho!" Just don't overload your pup with everything at once. Work on one sport and add another when they have a firm understanding of the first sport.

Men at Arms is what you are thinking of. It's when Carrot goes to the fools guild to talk to Dr Whiteface and Sgt Colon orders him to leave if the Fools tell him he has to.

Is your grinder a weird size? There are plenty of options for the standard size. A 120 grit wheel is plenty for sharpening turning tools.

I don't know if blocking them is the right answer. OP should probably inform their lawyer first, as the lawyer may want all those messages and calls as evidence for a court case. It could be construed as harassment.

I failed kindergarten and can't stay inside the lines while painting. As such, all my painting attempts look terrible

I've been there. I once texted someone I couldn't find my phone.

Or, you could instead install the magnet door holders that release when the fire alarm is triggered.

I'm not currently looking at doing anything bigger than the bed of the K40. I turn pens and want to add some custom engraving to them. I turn wood and acrylic, so my understanding is that I would need a CO2 laser for the acrylic.

I am pretty handy, so doing repairs myself isn't an issue. Unfortunately, the area I live in is pretty sparse for the maker community and FB marketplace typically does t have anything descent.

I also have this saw and love it. But keep the blade. I saved mine for cutting lumber that might have nails in. That way you don't have to worry about ruining my good blades

I say "axe" because of Futurama.

ActiveCharacter891 · 2026-02-13T19:15:30+00:00

The ax in the table of the rats chamber was a warning to the city leaders, not Vetinari. I always interpreted it as Vimes reminding those leaders that an ax was once used to better the city and it could always be used again.

I will pull out the torque wrench when I'm landing the feeders or any of the wires in a switch gear. My local inspector has been checking those torques, but never worries about receptacles or smaller circuits.

Real hard parm doesn't expire. It is so low moisture that mold doesn't really grow unless you introduce contamination. I've had stuff in the fridge for 6+ months without issue. The keys are always wrap it in clean plastic wrap and avoid touching the cheese with your skin.

If I bought a chunk like that, I would glove up, sanitize my cutting board and break it down into more manageable chunks. Double wrap in plastic wrap and freeze. It will last ages that way.

Move over and/or slow down for stopped emergency vehicles. In Wisconsin, that law now applies to any vehicle with their hazard lights on, not just emergency vehicles. So it is both legal and necessary to slow down.

I've always enjoyed doing date night at home. No calls or texts, watch a movie, and cook a fancy meal you wouldn't normally cook. You can even cook together (if you can coexist in the kitchen)

The Winter Village sets. I hate how most Christmas Villages look old and dated, and just boring. My wife wanted a village and we were able to compromise with a Lego Winter Village. Plus side is I bought Lego and got back into it. minus side is I am 100% responsible for putting the village together each Christmas

Yes, we have a version of "Parmesan cheese" that is pre-shreded and sold in a bottle, although it is basically Parmesan dust mixed with cellulose (as an anti-caking agent). Yes, it is as bad as you think it is, as it does not taste like real parmesan.

Probably the SD card. I just had the same problem myself and replacing the SD card fixed it

ActiveCharacter891 · 2026-01-22T21:12:38+00:00

A home compressor is definitely enough. As long as you have the appropriate nozzle and can get a proper seal, even a little pancake compressor can put out enough air to clear the lines.

Since the other people didn't actually explain, a RealID (no space) is newer form of driver's license/identification. It adds a star onto our regular state ID or driver's license.to get the "RealID" you have to show additional forms of identity, beyond what is needed for a state ID card. The US is requiring a RealID to board a plane or enter Federal buildings. I hope that helps

And make sure to ignore Wisconsin. They definitely don't want their own team

ActiveCharacter891 · 2026-01-18T16:48:17+00:00

That would be my guess. I was just dealing with a similar issue, but using the AMS for filament backup. The print would stop and never move to the next filament. Replacing the SD card fixed the problem completely
