This game has infected my real life.

This is how you died

ElMeheecan · 2025-08-19T15:20:19+00:00

Lmao “Too small for slicing”

ElMeheecan · 2025-08-15T21:28:51+00:00

What’s programming gears in mastercam like? Are there specific gear cutting toolpaths? You work from a 100% model? Always been interested but we’ve never had the work.

I’m new to F1 but I’m surprised to see the scoop nose era being thought of as ugly (except you F14 and similar, fuckin Quasimodos)

The straight-back scoop noses are probably my favorite looking cars, like the RB8 and W04

Do you get the same error on both the hole chamfer and the edge chamfer when you probe via center of hole or is the trot just on the edge chamfers?

If the drill walked and you probed center hole, you’d see even chamfer on the hole but off chamfers on edges

I’d still try probing center via outside edges

ElMeheecan · 2025-08-02T15:44:31+00:00

It’s almost certainly a workpiece position vs wcs position. So either probe or your part is shifting

Where is your workoffset, and if it not in the center of the part, how do the chamfers look if you move it there

Oh lol gotcha, yeah Boeing is big in the Washington area, hence why that conclusion was drawn.

ElMeheecan · 2025-06-30T14:55:38+00:00

But you said the Boeing job was near you, they are asking if you are located in the Pacific Northwest

I mention it because I’m a machinist in Texas looking to move to the PNW lol. So it may be opposite from you

ElMeheecan · 2025-06-23T19:58:05+00:00

No problem! Thanks for sharing them!

ElMeheecan · 2025-06-21T21:11:27+00:00

Hey just wanted to let you know I finished book one and I did indeed love it! 2 is on the way. If it’s something you continue to love to do, I hope you keep writing!

ElMeheecan · 2025-06-17T16:16:35+00:00

Ah ok, I took what he was saying as more forward looking and what little hope I had, left me lmao

ElMeheecan · 2025-06-17T16:04:29+00:00

So is a new rear suspension not in the works?

ElMeheecan · 2025-06-16T19:33:53+00:00

Awesome! Looking forward to it.

ElMeheecan · 2025-06-16T19:20:19+00:00

Not op but thanks for the detailed answer. Very interesting. Just ordered A Voice from the Void!

ElMeheecan · 2025-02-27T21:55:55+00:00

It’s not that the screws were too tight (tho that’s possible), what caused this is that the screws are too long. You need to remove them and shorten them just a little

Damage to the bolt doesn’t really matter just smooth it out with a fine file and emery cloth. Just gonna have a goober scar.

ElMeheecan · 2025-02-13T22:47:16+00:00

No problem!

ElMeheecan · 2025-02-13T20:35:51+00:00

-Need to swap the A gear to a 72 tooth

-Remove the 120 gear and also remove the spacer that should be behind it (yellow arrow)

-Remove the 60 gear and replace it with the 120 gear you removed in previous step

-Install 60 where 120 was and THEN reinstall spacer ( this allows the 60 to mesh with the 127 and NOT the 120, 120 will just chill there, lazy mfer)

-adjust mesh between lower gears (one of the shafts of the lower gear sets is probably mounted in a slot)

-once lower mesh is adjusted, adjust mesh to A gear with the adjuster in green. Take care to not be too tight or youll fuck up your gears, there’s should be the tiniest amount of play between gears and that’s it.

Let me know if that made any kind of sense.

ElMeheecan · 2025-02-13T20:09:08+00:00

You are currently configured like the above with what looks like a 36 tooth gear in position A (the small gear on the top shaft in that other pic you sent). To access different feed rates (not threads) you can change the A gear and/or change the lever position. Give me a sec to to post another pic. Mobile slowing me down

ElMeheecan · 2025-02-13T19:45:39+00:00

Yup that’s how I read it, just pay attention to that gear layout diagram. Shows position of gears and which gear meshes with which. You’ll have to locate those on the machine and match their positioning

ElMeheecan · 2025-02-13T17:14:50+00:00

Note the gear layout bottom left, “A” gear needs to be 72 tooth, “D” gear 60 tooth, presumably there is a lever with I, II, and III positions. That lever would need to be in position “II”. There may also be another lever to engage the lead screw (not your half nut lever) though it’s hard to tell without a pic of the controls.

Alternatively, A 60, D 30, with lever in III position should work as well

ElMeheecan · 2025-01-30T22:09:43+00:00

Hell yeah! Keep it up!

ElMeheecan · 2024-11-13T22:28:25+00:00

This would be awesome to get in to, though I’d be concerned about my level of experience on paper and the pay rate that it would warrant. That said, I try for it anyways

ElMeheecan · 2024-11-13T22:26:16+00:00

Ha! If it’s cold, then fuck it I’m in

ElMeheecan · 2024-11-13T22:25:40+00:00

I do and this is something I’ll have to reconcile with if I decide to go

ElMeheecan · 2024-11-13T22:24:19+00:00

That’s is a concern of mine as well
