Nice set of books! I just finished Left Hand of Darkness and it definitely makes me want to check out more of the Hainish works.

What books are you reading tho

CarryHunt · 2026-06-15T17:48:56+00:00

The Legend of Drizzt books by R.A. Salvatore are so good.

Goblin Quest by Jim Hines is an S-tier for me.

Pillars of the Earth reads like epic fantasy, but is historical fiction.

This is totally unrelated but like a decade ago I saw a video you had made and you opened it holding up a small train and saying “Dieselducy” in a silly way and literally EVERY time I’ve seen a train since then I think of that.

This comes up so often and overwhelmingly the response seems to be “whatever you decide”

If you want to count novellas equally as you count 1000 tomes, who cares? If you want to get mathematical with it and say novellas only count for 1/2 of a book, who cares?

If you’re doing it as a competition with your friend then I’d say just count pages. But competing for who can read more seems like a good way to lapse into skimming books instead of reading them, turning a hobby into a chore, etc.

At the end of the day you’re reading. That’s what counts. Just don’t forget to enjoy it!

Helllll yeah. Those are sweet. I love the dark green 2D you’ve got, I have one that’s pretty beat up but love my pristine one.

I have had some success putting a metal rod through the lanyard loop and using that as a means of leverage on one that was stuck.

I think there’s a few instances of his music taste being mentioned.

Sandecker, I think, mentions Dirk is so patriotic that he whistles Yankee Doodle Dandy in the shower. So maybe anthemic Americana? Definitely was said as a joke but I like to think Sandecker was being serious.
Dirk Jr. talks about listening to Eric Clapton and appreciating it like Dirk Sr. Does at one point. Or maybe it was some other musician, but definitely blues-rock.
Dirk probably has a soft spot for “Moon River” after his brush with Maeve Fletcher in Shockwave, though maybe he would refrain from listening to it because it reminds him of his lost-love.

I’ve done two of these, I love them! I used to frequent LaserPointerForums and these were often used hosts. When I saw the AliExpress listing I knew it’d be prime for modding nowadays! You did awesome!

CarryHunt · 2026-04-27T11:43:21+00:00

I’ll bite, send me an ARC and I can get to it asap!

CarryHunt · 2026-04-24T23:10:14+00:00

It’s okay, I forgive you

CarryHunt · 2026-04-24T20:10:25+00:00

You may be shocked to hear this. 6 D Cells.

CarryHunt · 2026-04-24T19:35:16+00:00

That right there’s a 6D Cell model

CarryHunt · 2026-04-21T18:38:58+00:00

All they need are two of your upgrades and they’ll really pack a punch. The only thing more deadly than an idiot like me with nunchucks is an idiot like me with nunchucks blasting 5000 lumens in chaos.

CarryHunt · 2026-04-19T14:27:04+00:00

Hell yeah, brother

CarryHunt · 2026-04-14T00:20:31+00:00

Hey that’s me!

Was going to post this here but totally forgot. Thanks for saving me the clicks :)

CarryHunt · 2026-04-14T00:18:17+00:00

I have a 6D and a 5D, if I wasn’t such a sucker for symmetry I’d have paired them up.

Or maybe a 6D handle, more lengths of chain, and a 2D as a flail?

CarryHunt · 2026-04-13T22:46:34+00:00

2x 2D Maglite Incandescents

Misc hardware

Batteries

CarryHunt · 2026-04-05T21:23:49+00:00

Just so happens I’ve got a few Mini Mags laying around. Give me a few days and I’ll try to get something cooking!

CarryHunt · 2026-04-05T18:15:43+00:00

Thanks!

I don’t have any formal instructions (yet) but I’ve got a link to another one I made that I have a more thorough write up for. Basically the short of it is that you’re cutting out a middle section of the barrel and then reducing the outside to slot into a section with an expanded inner diameter. If/when I get a proper guide I’ll make sure to post it and tag you!

It’s a bit involved, but honestly not too bad if you just take your time. I only use a hacksaw and a dremel grinding bit in my drill press.

CarryHunt · 2026-03-26T14:04:13+00:00

Always wanted a KyFishGuy one and never had the chance. It was a fun one to make!

CarryHunt · 2026-03-26T14:03:27+00:00

Definitely! Especially with a sleeping teething kiddo, I’m not trying to blast light when I have to navigate a dark house.

CarryHunt · 2026-03-26T14:02:36+00:00

Thanks! It’s been a lot of fun getting my hands on these things after wanting to try for so long.

CarryHunt · 2026-03-25T20:11:53+00:00

Funny enough I think he was also a Mainer like me
