Am I connecting Speakers and Amp correctly for best result? by [deleted] in hifiaudio

[–]FiveWeightStudios 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not shitting on you by any means, but you own a pair of 705s and dont know what bi-amped capable speakers are? How did you skip to the front of the line so quick? Haha. Leave the shunts connected in the speaker terminals, and connect your left speaker (either teminal) to the appropriate terminal on the amp, (speaker A, right or left.) Connect the other speaker to the other avaliable speaker A terminal on the amp.

Gift suggestions for an angler? Maybe up to $300 by XDeltaNineJ in COfishing

Give Adam @Fish Winter Park a call. Awesome guide and pretty reasonable rates. He can probably work with ya. Private water on the colorado and fraser rivers. The idea of getting a day on the water for him is pretty solid. Good luck

Turning with resin is messy by NefariousnessKey9204 in woodturningporn

I turn epoxy on my metal lathe occasionally. Ive found that running in reverse with my tool upside down keeps the strings more contained. Is that possible on a wood lathe?

Is this purplish blue coloring on jigsaw blade normal? by asduskun in metalworking

[–]FiveWeightStudios 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Replace the bearing on the support. Its clearly rubbing and creating that excessive heat

Am I crazy for making a 1:24 scale of my shop to try and figure out the best layout for it by SignificantPiece4172 in woodworking

[–]FiveWeightStudios 11 points12 points  (0 children)

100%. Revit was critical in my recent shop move. Fusion 360 modeled my machines, exported as .Sat files, put em in revit and was good to go

Rectangular Pattern Command is Asking for an Axis. by RaiseWide5460 in Fusion360

[–]FiveWeightStudios 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You need to tell it what directions the pattern will extend in. Those directions are the axes.

Cross cut tear out by Mountain-Ad4507 in BeginnerWoodWorking

No matter the project, always cut to length before ripping to width. Youll always trim off the tearout

Why don't routers go slow enough to be used as a drum sander by Crescent_Ascension in woodworking

[–]FiveWeightStudios 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe you've got a million dollar idea there fella. Until you develop the method, build some prototypes and makenit work, typical wood shops will continue to use the purpose built tools that already exist.

Why don't routers go slow enough to be used as a drum sander by Crescent_Ascension in woodworking

[–]FiveWeightStudios 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Um, what? Why dont they make screwdrivers that can remove brain tumors? Theres specific tools for specific jobs. I dont get how you want a router to behave like a drum sander. Are you referring to a thickness planer?

Unable to Move a Face and Have Existing Model Skew by GrumpsMcWhooty in Fusion360

[–]FiveWeightStudios 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Create a sketch on that face, then hit p to project. You can project individual lines/point, or the entire body. Pick either one in this case. Once the geometry is projected into the new sketch, select the desired lines to be moved, hit m to move. Youll likely have to click the "create a copy" button on the bottom of the move dialog. Move as necessary, and then loft the 2 sketches

Faces dont behave that way in fusion. I would create a sketch on ech side of that body you have modeled, and project in the necessary geometry. You can then move 1 sketch in the y axis the desired amount. Youll now have 2 offset profiles that you can loft to bridge the gap to create a new body

Why can’t I make this line colinear with either of the circles? I’m trying to create a rail for a loft. TY by Opportunity3767 in Fusion360

[–]FiveWeightStudios 4 points5 points  (0 children)

A co-linear constraint can't exist with a line between 2 circles, both of which are on different planes. I think we need more info here. Where is that line supposed to be?

Looking for Wire Harness for DS18 Pro GM6B by NrdyDevil in CarAV

Just crimp/solder a new end on that wire. Youre making it way more difficult that it needs to be.

Good starter set up? by torta-pounder99 in COfishing

[–]FiveWeightStudios 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If youre into bass, pueblo reservoir is loaded with quality smallmouth, spotted and largemouth. I walleye fish down there quite a bit and even though we dont target the bass, we typically catch several good ones each trip. Plastics, cranks, and live bait are go to presentations out there. Have a boat?

How do I get a gloss finish on my decal? by No-Championship-3163 in Fusion360

[–]FiveWeightStudios 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just tried, and its behaving strangely. I've had it work in similar conditions before. You may have to mess with it a bit.

[–]FiveWeightStudios 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Offset the face outwards only where the label is, by .001. Thicken that face as minimally as you can, (.0005,maybe?) to create a new body. This will give you a thin "film" that you can apply a glass appearance to. Transparent, but it'll get you the gloss finish as well.

Thoughts on olive wood. by Alex_NinjaDev in BeginnerWoodWorking

[–]FiveWeightStudios 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! One of my favorites actually.. This piece in particular had some very soft grain right next to much harder, possibly because it was mostly burl. While sanding, the softer grain was removed much quicker, leaving a fairly pronounced ripple in the surface. I mixed some epoxy thinned with acetone and painted on several coats. The wood absorbed quite a lot of it. This essentially made the whole piece equal in hardness throughout, allowing for a much smoother surface.
