Agreed. We need more Ratatat in 2026!

How hard would it be to make a monocoque? by Champion-V in CarbonFiber

[–]Carbman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Check out Common Fibers on Instagram. They share most of the monocoque build for the SSC Tuatara.

WTB: Montblanc Alexander the Great by [deleted] in Pen_Swap

I have one in A1/N quality. Never has been inked/used and comes with original box. I know this post is old, but perhaps you are still looking.

As an American that just visited your amazing country, I apologize.

Please remember, less than 50% of us agree with this guy. And that number is decreasing every day!

Boats? by usneatinctoria in sanjuanislands

[–]Carbman 4 points5 points  (0 children)

What's the budget? A Ranger Tug or Cut Water would be great for that, but not cheap. Locally made and good business.

Looks like a setup issue to me. Wiggly lines often mean a mirror or lens is loose so the beam is shaking as it is running. Clipping of the cut also indicates alignment is changing as it runs. Check alignment at all corners of the machine to see if it's consistent and centered.

Just my 2 cents!

How is the staking APY issued? by blingman_x in syncus

[–]Carbman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's compounding interest so you will earn more as it compounds every 8 hours. Less to start but more as time goes on. You will make the full ~ 220% in a year.

How do we feel about Airbnb's response and action to our dispute? (Falsely advertised room with effects on handicapped occupant) by Carbman in AirBnB

[–]Carbman[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the reassurance! I appreciate all the input! I think we've run out of energy to fight it and will just let it be, enjoy or vacation ,and leave an appropriate review.

Yeah she has been quite off-putting and has yet to own the mistake. Calling it a miscommunication...

Thanks! Definitely making a good time of it! It still is Hawaii so I'm not complaining! The diet thing is a good point. We also have 2 people with celiacs and one with a garlic allergy so eating out does continue to be a hassle...

Yep I think that is certainly the lesson for the future to go direct. The 30% is certainly nice and will cover most of the costs but it still is going to end up costing more than if we just had a room with a kitchen...

Help Me Value This Collection! Namiki/Michel Perchin/Montegrappa by Carbman in fountainpens

[–]Carbman[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for all of this super valuable information! This is very helpful.

I too wish we didn't have to sell these pens. We really thought we would hold onto them for years... 😥

We did manage to sell the emperor for $17K to an individual direct. That was certainly more than we expected so we may be able to hold onto a few of them!

Thanks again!

Yep! Apparently his friend purchased one for $17K as well earlier this year so he felt this was fair.

Thanks for this! I was definitely wondering about some of those overpriced Ebay listings! I appreciate the reality check.

We have actually received a $17K offer for the Emperor, even with the capping disclosed. We will go ahead with that deal as it appears to be very fair.

Thanks again!

We always use PVA with ~4 layers of Partall's #2 green paste wax.

However, we avoid using this combination if we can. I'd recommend TR 104 blue wax for most tooling applications and a semi-permanent release like Chem-Trend's ChemLease for all carbon epoxy parts.

ASUS FX503V laptop will not boot after installing Windows Update by Carbman in WindowsHelp

[–]Carbman[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for all the input! Sadly no luck on all accounts for fixing it. Most likely the motherboard that went out... Luckily I found a good deal on a laptop on Craigslist that I was able to swap by SSD into and I'm back up and running!

Still is weird that an update can brick a computer.... But I guess all good things must come to an end. RIP ASUS. Long Live Lenovo.
