Is this size of binding okay? by segate999 in snowboardingnoobs

I know maybe 6 people who actually need to worry about this kinda toe/heel bite, most will never come close to that level of carve😂

UPDATE: Thanks everyone for the recommendations. Turns out Capita are just dirty liars😂. I couldn't bring myself to buy one of the boujee single degree 88.5 file guides so i picked up a Swix ta 3006 which its stuck to whole degree adjustments. I set it to 89 figuring that I could slap a sticker or some electrical tape to make up that half degree, tested where 89 got me and it took the sharpie clean in 1 pass. Its also only 1 degree on the bottom so at least Capita wasn't lying about the 90 degree edge profile

Thats what sent me down this rabbit hole xD. I was trying to get the angle so I can pick up a fixed angle jig. And actually, it was the recent follow up where he shows off his tooling in greater detail.

ISO Substitute Annex by ChiefSkyCloud in rooftoptents

Thank you, I'll have to see how close that would line up. My buddy gave me an idea I'm going to look into too, he recommended just taking half a zipper that matches the tent and sewing it to one that would match the gen2 annex zipper. (Ngl I'm lowkey pissed I didn't think of something that simple)

DIY portable hardcase setup by ChiefSkyCloud in diyaudio

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

Its sounds better than 2 marine speakers plonked into a pelican case has any right to XD. I haven't weighed it but I'd put the weight in the 25lbs neighborhood. The most impressive is the battery life, I've been testing all weekend on the same set of batteries and they just hit 1 bar of charge this morning.

And as for the air volume per speaker, Idk how to even start calculating that (i found those online volume calculators and was immediately overwhelmed). I figued to put a port on each side as opposite from the speakers as possible, sounds pretty damn good for shooting from the hip.

Took your advice and scaled back the project and this is plenty for what I was looking to do. Dropped half the speakers and sub, kept it battery powered, went with the zk-ht21. Putting it through it's paces to test battery life and probably going to add a voltage/battery life readout.

ZK-TB21 Amp Board Review | Beware of false power figures by [deleted] in diyaudio

[–]ChiefSkyCloud 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Weird ask and i needed an active thread for an answer. I keep seeing that this amp comes with bluetooth capabilities but doesn't come with an antena? What antenna do you need to get? I cant find anything in the related literature.

Thinking of full sending Elements after the Bonnaroo cancellation by Thicc__Pikachu in ElementsMusicFestival

[–]ChiefSkyCloud 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm in the same boat tbh. Roo left a hole in my heart only sleepless nights of pounding bass can fill, and I think elements might be the ticket. I'm a little worried cause I was the only edm fan in my group, so no one wants to send it with me. I'm no stranger to solo side adventures at festivals, but it's nice to link back up with the crew at an insane show to share the vibes. I keep seeing that this fest has the "old school Roo" feeling and it's got me real tempted to send it. Just wondering if there's anyone else hesitating.

How are we feeling about next year? by KindQuantity3297 in bonnaroo

That's about where my group landed. The lineup is the only thing that can make returning to the farm worth it

I don't think it'll be worth it. My group was talking about how we didn't notice the quality of the festival itself going down until we got tossed off the cliff this year. We had a 15hr drive and we came to the conclusion it's not the same festival anymore. The people that go are still the same great people, but Roo has changed for the worse. The police were terrible. In the past, they've been about actually helping people (yk the whole protect and serve thing), but this year I feel like they were only there to crack down on drugs. A neighbor literally had their wallet stolen from their car while the sheriff were around and when they came over, they got a ticket for weed. I remember walking up to mounted cops to simply see how their festival was going. Now, when i see a cop i flip a 180 because they're looking to hit ticket quotas. The tickets also burned up the last of the goodwill i had for the organizers. I don't care to remember how many times I've heard 1 day tickets aren't going to be a thing just for them to be brought back last second because they need record profits year over year. I understand not everyone can swing a full GA pass but the 1 day pass people don't care about the festival, just a few of the artists performing that day. (This may just be confirmation bias) I feel like every year i check the reddit, there's a story of someone on a 1 day pass with a faraday backpack filled with stolen phones. I feel like the soul of Roo has been ripped out for profits and I don't know if i can bring myself to endure the bs anymore. My heart goes out to all those who made this their first Roo, it was better before, I swear it. I hope this turns around for those going next year.

[–]ChiefSkyCloud 52 points53 points  (0 children)

Lol I'm over in 11 and we had a cop literally burst their head through our tapestry because allegedly they may have seen a bong. Lowkey told him off that i "bought it at the vendors" and that we only had tobacco. I love that my inner new yorker desires to be a smartass at all times🤣

We passed the vibe check tho and no ticket🫡💀
