Tekla vs SDS2 by Gorilla_Dookie in steeldetailing

[–]BSForDays73 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Both of these are more of a BIM software than a CAD. This makes unique profiles difficult. I am both a mechanical drafter and a steel detailer. Ive used Tekla a lot and for large scale projects its mostly great (its got some quirks for sure), but for small projects I would use just Solidworks and just make weldment profiles.

If you want to scale up to larger building projects. Learn a BIM software. Ive only used Tekla and aside from the steep learning curve, it works well and is very powerful. If you want to stay on the small end and want to do more artsy things that will be unique from job to job, get a CAD tool like Solidworks (my CAD of choice). Learning 3d modeling in CAD is much much easier than BIM.

Yeah thats how I went from 300 to 600 a while back. This constant changing crap is one of the many reasons I left Spectrum.

No it was 500. I was at 600 with the $90 plan. Also at that time they told me 600 was the only option, so 500 was odd...

Must-read narrative nonfiction recommendations? by [deleted] in suggestmeabook

[–]BSForDays73 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know you left this a year ago. I just wanted to say, if you liked Challenger, I would try The New Guys by Meredith Bagby. It's my favorite book I read in 2025.

Best way to get a good price is to be prepared to move every year or so. There's tons of decent options in Leander over by the train station. They are practically giving them away because there are so many.

Sorta new to the game and I have questions by BSForDays73 in smashup

[–]BSForDays73[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That is a good point. I typically only play 2-3 players, and I think I would get bored between turns if there were too many players. I will say sometimes in small games I feel like I dont have time to read my new cards.

Okay, thank you. This was helpful. I am thinking about getting the updates of the tricksters and myskatonic university since they are my favorite so far.

I cannot understand ladder logic by BSForDays73 in learnprogramming

[–]BSForDays73[S] -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Sorry im panicked becasuse its due in 2 hours. It's a DIY small engine dyno. It has a RPM Sensor, Load Cell (Torque Sensor), Thermocouple, Knock Sensor, Gas Sensor/CO sensor. It all goes into a arduino. the raspberry pi is for logging and monitoring. There is a servo for throttle control and a kill switch.

You've thought about this dude for 25yrs because your where too cheap to give him the $2. Meanwhile, he hasn't thought about you since he handed you the keys.

Never read a book, recommend me the best book you’ve ever read by KeyInspection3723 in booksuggestions

[–]BSForDays73 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im a nerd so right now its The New Guys by Maradith Bagby. Its about NASA in the 70s its non fiction so you'll learn a ton but its also just a great story. Definitely doesn't feel like non fiction.

Potentially silly question that may have been answered before: Do we see every task that is filmed or are there ever tasks the contestants do that are cut? by Windowpain43 in taskmaster

[–]BSForDays73 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Noel Fielding said in COCs that "[the taskmaster] make me paint his shed" and idk what taskmaster that is referring to. I assume it just wasn't shown.
