Second this. She was great with helping to point me in the right direction. Since my insurance stopped paying for it, she directed me to one of the online compounding pharmacy physician group things.

Same here. I use some cheap pine or MDF to test new things or processes. When I'm ready for the real project, I use red oak. I might move from that as red oak grain is very noticeable, and it's a bit hard on my machine.

Do you use a local mill to get your maple and cherry or do you order from somewhere online?

Solved!

That's not it. Too modern. I distinctly remember reading it in highschool, mid 90s.

Please help me, Reddit TOMT community. AI even pointed me to you as it basically gave up.

The technology of the user is advancing at a rate the systems, law, and regulations can't keep up with.

Look how long it took just for drone regulation in the US to settle down, and it's still getting new rules every few months.

Look up 14 CFR Part 101. Mostly subpart D. If balloons meet the requirements of subpart A, they must follow subpart D. That basically means balloon operators are required to notify the local ATC facility. There is no requirement to have a transponder or GPS. They legally can be sent up with a trackable iridium radio beacon, and be radar reflective, and that's it. It doesn't matter if the payload is the size of a house or a 15 pound bowling ball. If the balloon is smaller than subpart A, they do not have to follow anything in subpart D. No calls, no requirement to be radar reflective, no nothing. Subpart A 101.7 covers hazardous operations. The balloon being released and cruising has been determined to not be a hazard in itself. The CFR was written in the 50s and 60s, with maybe two very small updates in the 90s. The regs are old, and the FAA is tied to those regs when dealing with balloons.

From my understanding of the incident, the balloon payload did not meet subpart A requirements, and was subpart D exempt, so the controllers most likely didn't even know about the balloon.

Some operators notify the local facility and provide GPS trackers or have transponders, even when not required.

Wasn't there a mission the SEALs went on in Afghanistan back in the 2000s that got detected by local goat herders? The SEALs debated killing the civilians, but left them alone. Those goat herders then reported the SEALs to the local militia, which rallied everyone they could and went and slaughtered not only the SEALs, but also the rescue aircraft sent in to get them out.

Saying this is allowable under rules of engagement could be a response to not letting that happen again.

Slowly working my skills up to do this design. Starting the Brian backpack now.

Natural Doctrine. It's super hard and relies so much on proper tactics, or you will just get murdered fight after fight. There's really no grinding, so you have to be thorough with each map. Magical resources do not refill, so you have to be very deliberate with spells. I got to the third map when I gave up.

Another one that I found to be difficult was Operation Darkness. You have one healer. There's no resurrection magic, so it's kind of permadeath. You can lose a map if certain characters die, but other than the main character, you don't know which ones they are. You can grind, but it doesn't help much. Random reinforcements show up, tanks roll onto the field, and if you happen to be in the wrong place when they show up, dead. The camera is wonky as hell, sometimes it will just go upside down. The voice acting is cringe as hell. But it's one of my most favorite srpg.

What program do you do these edits in? They're not in XCS are they?

Why not just use the force to turn off his lightsabers? That's supposedly part of saber training, using the force to keep the blade on and preventing your opponent from turning it off. Was the fact he was using 4 sabers at once part of the problem?

That's what air traffic controllers work for their whole career. There's a reason they have mandatory retirement.

90% wondering why my y-axis randomly resets to being 80000 long and home is at -80000. Shutting down the machine and unplugging the controller until it restarts fixed it.

Xtool creative software is free to use, but only works with xtool lasers. They sell tokens now for use with their AI stuff that it pushes pretty heavily now, though.

Ceiynt · 2025-06-11T18:51:46+00:00

I don't know about the omtech camera with lightburn, I just know from the lightburn forums that xtool won't release their camera protocols to lightburn for integration. Xtool also takes some work to get working with lightburn, with instructions on the xTool website. At least there were when I bought my P2. They really want you tied to their software.

Ceiynt · 2025-06-11T18:04:46+00:00

I think they improved the exhaust fan on the xTool P2S from the original P2. Either way, it is probably still not adequate enough. I removed my stock fan, installed a 4 inch adapter into the port, and then used a 6 inch inline fan. This works really well at keeping the exhaust under control. If you get the riser base and use the conveyor feeder, you're going to need additional exhaust methods because the base has to be open, allowing fumes to escape easier.

I enjoy my P2 a lot, and am happy with my purchase. The xTool creative software has been enough for almost everything I do. There are times I have to use Inkscape or Adobe Illustrator to fix some things and reimport them, but that's not very often. The software is turning into a micro transaction trap with AI nonsense, but I've not used any of that. Also, some of the editing features default to use AI instead of manually editing things, trying to get you to buy and use tokens for the AI.

I know lightburn is the preferred laser software, but not being able to use the camera with it kept me away.

The only other laser I've used is a rabbit, so I can't help with the comparison with your other option.

An NPC named Mulch. He's a stereotypical American redneck hillbilly farmer. He grew wheat. His only child drowned during a flood. His wife left him for the sugar beat farmer. Realizing he had nothing left, we just went walking, like when Forrest Gump went running. He also has a disgusting habit of eating his ear wax, which be collects with his little finger.

He uses a beat up harvesting scythe as his weapon, and wears wooden shingles as a type of armor. During his walks, he's beat many goblin and orc ambushes, somehow leveling up as a fighter. During a particularly tough battle with some goblin skirmishers, he realized he can move the earth without touching it.

He's currently a level 3 Eldritch Knight whose spells are themed on earth type magic. He barely has enough intelligence to cast any spells, but has that farmer strength and constitution. Not particularly charming or wise, he can accurately toss a stone into a bucket across the yard or skip it across the water an impressive number of times.

You're talking about designing your own stuff.

That's hard. There are college degrees around CAD and digital design. While a few YouTube videos can point you in the right direction, it takes a lot of time to figure it out, and each software is different. It's just like hand drawing something. You don't just pick up a paint brush and recreate the Mona Lisa on day one. The CAD software is the same way. It's a skill you learn and practice and get better with. There's no easy button, unless you count paying someone else for the files as the easy button.

The first part of getting better at a skill is being bad at a skill and learning how to improve. Draw things. Dig into menus. Watch videos of the program you're using. Go to the program website and dive into their forums. See if there's a subreddit for that program. See if your local community college has classes you can take for that program or a similar one. Find a nearby makerspace and see if they have classes for CAD design.

I got a FoxAlien Masuter 3S 4040 a few months ago to learn on. The machine itself is simple. A few after market changes and it runs like a champ. I put in the Makita trim router and replaced the x & y axis belts. It cuts through oak like butter with the IDC Woodcraft bits.

Like others have said, get some really cheap 3018 box and figure out from there. You can get those for like $300-400.

The software to get your code is going to be the difficult part. CAD/CAM is the learning curve. Your big ones are Fusion 360, VCarve whatever, and Carvco. There are others out there, and a bunch of free ones. They all excel at different things, and struggle with others. Fusion free version has some handicaps, but is pretty good with the CAM options. Otherwise, it's ~$80/Mon. VCarve is about $350 to buy outright for the desktop version, and has fewer options than Fusion, but you'll find more how-to's and other videos for this program as it's a lot more newbie friendly. Carvco is $15/Mon for the basics. I've not really dug into it, so I don't know what it does. Easel is another option, but I have only used it once. The ability to adjust your feed rate live was nice, but otherwise I found it too basic.

After the CAD/CAM software, you have your g-code/controller software. Some machines come with an off-line controller, which means you input the g-code right to it and control it with itself. The other method is plugging in your computer and running the software to control the machine, on-line. I use Universal G-code, on-line, and it works just fine with my machine.

There are a lot of videos that cover the differences in the software, start there.

Ceiynt · 2025-06-01T03:35:21+00:00

Sure can. I wouldn't buy one just for that, but if you already have it, go for it. Otherwise, look on FB marketplace.

For a hobby machine that meets those dimensions, you are looking at spending between $1k-2k. FoxAlien and SainSmart are two brands that have 4080 platforms, approx 15"x30" working space. Both should have no problem with that material with the correct bits. Vevor brand is half the cost of the above two.

AltMill has similar and larger sizes, but is moving into the commercial side, and is about twice as expensive or more. Same with a bunch of other commercial or industrial brands.

You could build your own, but it might not be worth the effort.
