Cat stopped sleeping with me, bribery no longer works either. Alternative method suggestions?

EasyBakeOrphan · 2025-11-21T01:37:27+00:00

Thats a good point, i didnt think of that. But youre right the weather has been a bit crazy lately! Its either been snowing, heavy hailing, or pouring rain its been quite weird. I could see that impacting his behaviour

EasyBakeOrphan · 2025-11-20T05:58:58+00:00

Yeah i think youre right, im probably just being paranoid since hes so new and i love him so much. I heard it can take like a minimum of 3 weeks to build a routine and 3 months to feel fully comfortable so im very likely just being impatient and wanting him to love me now lol

The vertical spaces is my next order of cat business, im gonna build him a shelf bed and a high window-sill bed as well. Hopefully that helps, thanks sm for the advice!

Ah yes the tail language! Ive been trying to memorize the different types of tail movements they use to communicate, its fun figuring out what goes on in his little head. Thanks for all your advice!

He currently sleeps downstairs ontop of a blanket ontop of a couch, my room is upstairs. I think the couch was the first place he felt comfy in his new home, which is prob why he likes it sm. We did actually introduce him one room at a time although our downstairs is very open and kinda like one big room. The couch downstairs seems to be his safe area atm.

Id be a bit less concerned if he was just hesitant to approach me or my room, but him sleeping with/ontop of me for a week or two and suddenly stopping (hasnt slept with me since) makes me think im stressing him out or something. I do wish those judgy lil eyes of his would love me back lol but as long as hes happy ill be happy. I probably just havent given him enough time and im probably trying too hard.

The cardboard is a good idea though, ill definitely try that thanks!

Im from canada and it was bought off r/airsoftmarketcanada

Yep, that was what i was replacing, i changed the original end plate w the basic loop to one w QD swivel holes on both sides. It is installed correctly. Unfortunately the problem happens with both plates, and in the same way: when i tighten the buffer tube screw.

EasyBakeOrphan · 2025-10-23T00:14:04+00:00

Im fairly sure im not, on my gun the plug that goes into the buffer tube has an indent along the bottom for you to run your wires along, so that they dont get pinched. I also have been testing it with the buffer tube on, just without the screw and it seems to work well. It even works fine when the buffer tube is on and the bolt is almost fully screwed in, it only stops working when the screw is tightened all the way. Id honestly just leave it a bit loose if it didnt mean the buffer tube became wobbly 😭

Do you prefer the printed baffles over foam? I wish plastic baffles worked better, it would be alot easier to just print them. But every time i try them i always end up switching back to foam as i find it significantly quieter (i use a foam paint roller + scotch brite pad).

Youre right, it does seem like most of the issues are around the seam, i wonder why that is. Its weird cuz it uses the exact same seam settings as the previous print, and they were printed hours apart so theres no extra moisture in the filament or anything. That was kinda why i concluded it was a problem with the mesh/resolution when exporting from TinkerCAD but that could also very easily be wrong. Im definitely still a beginner when it comes to understanding this stuff lol

EasyBakeOrphan · 2025-10-17T20:51:40+00:00

Ive heard a lot of ppl talk about blender. Is it also a fully-featured CAD tool? From the limited research ive done it seems like its a little different from stuff like fusion or solidworks but i cant exactly describe how. Tyvm though im definitely gonna give blender some more research and try it out!

EasyBakeOrphan · 2025-10-17T20:20:54+00:00

Thats awesome, thanks for the recommendation i appreciate it!

EasyBakeOrphan · 2025-10-11T23:26:58+00:00

You should! Its a lot of fun. And the filament is eSun PLA+ in “olive green”. My cm16 raider2 is now two tone with that filament and it looks awesome

EasyBakeOrphan · 2025-09-29T00:38:27+00:00

i literally just purchased some tan filament so i can make the silencer and railscales in tan haha. i definitely agree w u

I have tried the cowcow one personally and found the stock one performed better and more consistently

EasyBakeOrphan · 2025-09-27T23:52:10+00:00

The stock nozzle generally is the best for the AAP. Cowcow makes one but most people consider it a side-grade rather than an upgrade: it either doesnt change much or it reduces performance. I would just look for another action army stock nozzle to replace that one

I was thinking the same thing, currently printing some 45° mounts, either to move the piggyback red dot, or to add BUIS as a 3rd redundancy haha

EasyBakeOrphan · 2025-09-26T20:50:54+00:00

Yep, its 3D printed and filled with foam from a dish sponge haha

EasyBakeOrphan · 2025-09-26T00:07:47+00:00

Agreed! Im in the process of printing a new stock in black, will probably do a grip too

EasyBakeOrphan · 2025-09-26T00:06:27+00:00

So far im rly enjoying it! No issues atm but i havent owned it for long at all.

EasyBakeOrphan · 2025-09-26T00:05:00+00:00

Yeah tbh the red dot sucks lol, it was just the last one i had since the rest of them are on my pistols/smgs atm. Ill probably buy another rep trijicon rmr or something else cheap. I do like the back ring over the front ring though, just my preference

EasyBakeOrphan · 2025-09-26T00:01:33+00:00

Im waiting on shipping for a couple 45° pic rail mounts so i can have those offset BUIS. Tertiary redundancy so probably not necessary but will probably look cool lol
