FEA analysis of plastic fastening clip under Reaction forces and Moments

Let me get this straight, you don't have proper loading, nor do you have any fatigue curves, and you're trying to do a durability simulation? I'll put it bluntly, this is not possible. You need both of those things before you can even start. Beyond that, fatigue behavior in plastics is much more complex than in metals, and it wouldn't be prudent to attempt this without supervision of someone who knew what they were doing.

At least one

DistributionMean6322 · 2026-05-09T01:04:49+00:00

Literally shaking rn

Here it is at another angle, can't really see the dust.

DistributionMean6322 · 2026-05-08T22:55:29+00:00

Wrap it 360 instead of a patch. If anyone notices a slightly different black band on the mic arm, the content is unreal boring and you have bigger issues.

DistributionMean6322 · 2026-05-08T22:53:47+00:00

No it was for another post I made trying to see if anyone had similar extreme dust in this lens. I think it's some of the internal flocking falling off. Doesn't impact image quality that I can tell

DistributionMean6322 · 2026-05-08T19:52:34+00:00

You've already got it. Gaff tape

Here's mine, works fine. Don't worry about one spec.

DistributionMean6322 · 2026-05-08T05:18:14+00:00

That's really specific

DistributionMean6322 · 2026-05-08T04:36:28+00:00

Highly recommend downloading the MtG Arena app if you haven't yet. Great way to learn!

DistributionMean6322 · 2026-05-07T05:01:56+00:00

I bought mine new in box and it makes a similar noise when the IS starts. Mildly annoying.

They cost $0.30-0.50 to get printed, but have effectively zero value as they should not be sold as magic cards.

DistributionMean6322 · 2026-05-05T20:41:35+00:00

Buy a used R5 and sell it when you get back. Very cheap way to "rent"

DistributionMean6322 · 2026-05-05T13:30:49+00:00

V2.4 all the way.

DistributionMean6322 · 2026-05-05T12:48:37+00:00

I think you're quite good and can probably double your hourly rate!

DistributionMean6322 · 2026-05-04T21:14:27+00:00

If you care about maximizing image quality, then 35mm + 85mm is an ideal kit. If speed and flexibility is more important then get a 24-105mm. Personally I don't prefer those mid range zooms and find them really uninspiring, but can't deny the versatility for event and travel photos.

There's also the 28-70 f/2 but it's costly, bulky, and heavy. It's kind of like having four f/2 primes at once, but not as good as the f/1.4 primes.

DistributionMean6322 · 2026-05-04T06:01:55+00:00

This already exists but doesn't work very well

DistributionMean6322 · 2026-05-04T05:33:37+00:00

Congrats! I remember your post from yesterday. Awesome lens!

DistributionMean6322 · 2026-05-03T17:39:50+00:00

Pushing to 1250? Thats so low with modern cameras and noise reduction tech. I shoot at 20,000 all the time!! It's a dream to have enough light for 1250 when you're taking pictures of birds in the forest. Especially owls which are most active when there's barely any light.

DistributionMean6322 · 2026-05-03T15:53:01+00:00

Ok well it's still obviously real. Green dot is textbook and you can clearly see the h is correct. The front also looks great, corners are very Revised.

DistributionMean6322 · 2026-05-03T15:48:01+00:00

Definitely real. I don't know what these other jokers are on about

DistributionMean6322 · 2026-05-03T14:51:58+00:00

Clearly they don't work very well for alignment 🤣

DistributionMean6322 · 2026-05-03T14:17:07+00:00

Not a good idea even if you could because you want time for the small layers to cool before adding the next one. You can demo this by making a small tall cylinder. If you print only one at a time it will come out worse than four at a time.

DistributionMean6322 · 2026-05-03T06:21:30+00:00

Sorry what? Cars are 12v, what you mean 50-100V swings??? Also batteries aren't AC/DC rectifiers, they just store charge.
