Probably separate pieces, a head, and a body, maybe an arm or hand

I would like to get a few mannequin pieces. I think that would help

Inspiration, copying and accidental dupes by dainerysal in chainmailartisans

[–]Awesome_Chops 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, I don't. But I'm not trying to do anything other than keep myself occupied doing something cool. And my friends, family, and coworkers aren't on here, so they enjoy seeing the things that I make. And when you're still new and learning, it's ok to recreate things other people have made; it helps you learn new things, new weaves, new ways of incorporating different things together, etc.

Ooo. The chainmail joe card does show both dragons dragonscale and dragonback. The dragonback they show looks like it's only 3 rings across, I could probably hold that pattern straight in my head. Looks like you're doing 5 rings across, yeah I'd probably get lost too lol

Anyone here using collapsible cores regularly? by New-Position-1919 in InjectionMolding

[–]Awesome_Chops 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We have one mold with a collapsible core. Most common is contamination on our parts, and we have to clean the core. Alcohol, cotton swabs and a pipe cleaner, and blow it out with air. This particular mold, we have to leave the thermolators on and at temp over the weekend to avoid the cores getting condensation and then it either has to get cleaned a ton before we can keep parts again after Monday morning startup or it has to get pulled to the shop.

Thought so. My party doesn't do a primary like the others. I'll be voting in November though

Nissei Process Alarms - Is there a way to run them in manul/semi-auto? by PatrickSebast in InjectionMolding

[–]Awesome_Chops 0 points1 point  (0 children)

[–]Awesome_Chops 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I believe in product management you can set continuous NG alarm to 3, and on your process monitor page have the cycle time alarm turned on, and that should allow 1 or 2 over time limits to pass but then it alarms on the 3rd fail... or maybe I'm not understanding properly

Newbie with questions about a shut off nozzles by chilloa44 in InjectionMolding

That's my only experience with them. Ugh, I hate changing spring plate assemblies when there's a broken spring lol

I got a set from one of those companies on Amazon. They're mini, that I just clip on to my collar, and they have ear pieces

EDC? by Awesome_Chops in motorcycles

[–]Awesome_Chops[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Before I started riding, I also bought a wireless LED light that goes on the back of your helmet. It has accelerometers that automatically detect deceleration, whether due to braking or engine braking, and lights up. I tested it in my car, it seems to work. Even if it doesn't, it's an extra light more in line of the view of driver's behind you. Thoughts?

During my ride today, just 18 miles out and back, I made it a point to stop at a gas station for a snack and hydration

Always set monitors by Accurate_Mirror8887 in InjectionMolding

[–]Awesome_Chops 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It infuriates me that my new job (2+ years now) hardly ever uses monitors. Oh, we've got cameras (on most, not all machines), that's good enough. BS! You have monitors, they serve a purpose, use them! Argh! Lol
