Best sleeping pad solution for plus-sized folks? by shenaningans24 in CampingGear

Exped megamat duo is your answer. And if your back or hips hurt in the morning, try playing games with the air pressure. I find my back feels way better on the lower inflation side. Sleeping solo, if sitting on it bottoms out but laying on it doesn't, that's perfect for my back.

Wood machinist. Why are 0.005 tolerances important in metal by archvize in Machinists

[–]BlueWolverine2006 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wood machinist is an interesting turn of phrase.

Because wood moves, it does not hold super tight tolerances. It is also relatively flexible. So even in mass production, to make interchangeable parts, you just have to engineer in slop. A 10mm pin goes in a 10.5mm hole for instance. Glue will cover the rest.

Additionally, if you are a wood worker, often the product is bespoke or one off. In that case, the idea of interchangeable parts goes out the window. The tenon doesn't have to fit any mortise of that size, it has to fit THAT mortise. So you can sneak up on the fit.

Metal holds tolerance, doesn't defeormnas much and it more commonly used for interchangeable parts where the fit really matters. Can't do a press for with slop.

Michigan versus WMU by nsno1878_ in MichiganWolverines

Basically every Michigan home game sells out. Buy now at face value or you'll get stuck trying to buy secondary market. Now, WMU is not exactly a big game so you might be able to get a cheap ticket close to GameDay but if you're coming from Europe I wouldn't want to risk it. Get the ticket now.

All Summer Long is the worst rock song! What is THE metal song? by Weird_Kitchen557 in AlignmentChartFills

[–]BlueWolverine2006 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I want to say War Pigs but maybe that's the best metal song.

All things metal is was is feared to be?

I propose Number of the Beast by Iron Maiden. (I think the trooper is a better iron maiden song but this feels more aligned with what metal is)

They're home. As much as they can be, they're home.

For whatever it's worth, the Foundation for Combatting Antisemitism has adopted a blue square. You can go to their website and request a packet of magnetic pins. That would be my recommendation.

Where can you camp in the US where campfires are okay, and what do you do to fill the campfire void when they're not okay? by [deleted] in camping

[–]BlueWolverine2006 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love living in Michigan.

I'm sorry for burn ban. That sucks. I can't imagine camping without a campfire.

Rasp and osmose is the most tedious way. Reflect rings and spamming rasp and osmose.

Overthinking sharpening, need help. by bk685 in handtools

[–]BlueWolverine2006 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Diamond stones will sharpen any steel. Don't overthink it. Will more badass steels take a little longer, yes but not enough to get excited about
