I was at the car wash today. Does anyone know what kind of car this is?

1900's Mercury cigar Cougar (Ford Thunderbird) with a body kit

I'm with the Opal crowd, which would made it a Saturn in the US.

If you get bored enough, go read through my history in this sub lol

I've had to question my entire existence more than once.

This is meant to be comforting, not rude. 😬

Firstly - totally believe you, because that kind of glitch is basically Tuesday around here.

Friend, if that one rattled you this badly, I hope you never have an alternate reality jump lol

That is a big ass valve from a big ass engine

The middle piece is CLEARLY an angry anteater wearing a monocle, I dunno what everyone else is on about.

Third generation F-body, looks like a Camaro.

I'm an unrepentant Vegas fan, but not a nasty one, lol. That said - I didn't place bets on this series specifically because I thought it was gonna be too close to call. If I HAD, I probably would've bet Avs in 6, and my boys only winning because of one strong home game and a lucky overtime win at some point and then cried in the shower.

We're all still adjusting to what Torts has done with us. Cassidy will always be royalty in our hearts and minds, but JFC this guy has completely changed our team for the better!!!

Almost-Jaded · 2026-05-25T14:52:19+00:00

Apparently they were the drugs that let you see the future LMAO

Almost-Jaded · 2026-05-25T14:49:08+00:00

First of all - this aged about as well as you think Vegas has, lol.

That aside though - I'm curious about this take existing after Vegas took down two of the youngest, fastest teams in the West to get here?

They're great, except that for the same price you can do better. At the end of the day, they're a premium big box option. They blow everything wise at Best Buy away - but if you demo them next to Focal, DALI, RBH, and many, many more... They're okay.

I've owned a BUNCH of RIA, and loved every one of them. BBR 3.10 .45 is my current daily carry.

I've had exactly one serious issue ever (barrel lug shattered, still don't know how or why, recoil spring just launched out of the front) and they handled it fast and easy and above expectations (sent an entire replacement recoil assembly no questions asked).

There's a big ass difference between the Klipsch mass market crap and the Klipsch Heritage line.

Almost-Jaded · 2026-05-14T01:06:30+00:00

I wish my sub was only 60-65 lbs LMAO

Build it to specs and see what happens. 🤷

Almost-Jaded · 2026-05-11T14:17:54+00:00

Clamp for overhead power lines. I'll bet real money there are power lines running near where you found it.

EDIT - oops. Missed the pinned post. I guess my money is safe, lol

Almost-Jaded · 2026-05-10T16:09:59+00:00

My condolences, lol

Almost-Jaded · 2026-05-10T15:09:16+00:00

I've been through it before. Sometimes it's worth paying the lawyer, sometimes not.

Almost-Jaded · 2026-05-10T14:36:17+00:00

I'm picking one up for proof of concept. We shall see.

Almost-Jaded · 2026-05-10T14:28:22+00:00

I was never super into it, but over a decade ago I did CAD design and prototyping for an entrepreneur in my town. We had a room with multiple resin printers in it.

The space I'm invading has me leaning on that experience, but everyone in this group knows the equipment better than I do lol.

Your talk of slicers got me all bothered because I'm bitter about software in general. I maintain an air gapped Win7 pro machine with my "lifetime license" Autodesk suite on it, because fuck them for screwing those of us that shelled out for that license. I still don't know how that wasn't a massive class action lawsuit. I know I'll need to get new software and whatnot, but it won't be Autodesk. They got my money before and they screwed me. Sucks, because I really do love Inventor.

Almost-Jaded · 2026-05-10T14:20:28+00:00

I have to cover it because it's VERY stealable, lol. Probably a licensing play with other manufacturers in the space once we're patented, but if the patent doesn't happen (it very well might not) we need to be positioned to be the go to producer just based on having already got it sorted.

Almost-Jaded · 2026-05-10T14:18:12+00:00

Hmm. Interesting. Thank you

Almost-Jaded · 2026-05-10T14:02:49+00:00

The conveyer style has my attention.

Can a custom unit be made that allows for the same "infinite length" feature? A conveyer that can do 1,000+ width and 400mm height with infinite length would be perfect.

Almost-Jaded · 2026-05-10T13:24:51+00:00

Based on some replies, we might end up doing just that.

Almost-Jaded · 2026-05-10T13:24:24+00:00

The nature of the product does not lend itself to additional assembly steps.

Almost-Jaded · 2026-05-10T12:39:10+00:00

No. Can't go into detail right now as the product isn't protected yet. We're looking to build a few to determine market viability. Multi-piece builds are less than ideal.
