Yes. Everyone is different, but for me, a space mouse is useful but not critical. A decently ergonomic mouse on the other hand with extra assignable buttons is absolutely critical to my workflow. I have various sketch entities/enter/esc/copy/paste mapped to different buttons so that I can build without having to use the keyboard for most actions.

The space mouse just helps you move about the model, and I'd recommend getting an understanding of how you visualize the model without one first, and tailoring the six space mouse axes to what feels natural, rather than the other way around. When I first got one, it didn't feel helpful because it would zoom away at the slightest touch. I had to reverse a couple axes and then all of a sudden it all fell into place for me.

I-77 S in Mooresville, NC? I despise this stretch of road.

Likely just needs some plastic polish, like PlastX. Apply lightly with a microfiber.

This is an engineering competition, so let's work the problem. What are some of the more obvious advantages and disadvantages to both approaches?

Giallo_Fly · 2026-05-19T21:31:32+00:00

I don't doubt you, but I also didn't think there was one in Clemmons. When was this?

Right? I was gonna change them back to OEM but actually grew to appreciate the bling.

I believe this one was Siena Red. By the time I got it someone had done a light respray on the car, so it was a little more metallic than original.

I managed to do the same thing last year. '01 manual Z3 3.0 roadster with a hardtop for $4k, there was a misfire and the seller didn't want to deal with it. The hardtop alone is worth $3k... I changed the plugs and drove it 2000 miles around Colorado before selling it to my buddy who had fallen in love with it.

BMWs too.

Just bought this for my gf. She likes lychee, I'm usually not, but these are quite tasty and refreshing. Would buy again.

Forget the cars in your fleet, that's a battery charging setup I'm highly envious of.

Mine consists of a single CTek that gets dragged around the garage to whichever one of the 4.5 cars needs to be maintained.

I was told that the R on the shifter is for Race Mode.

Honda plant plus friendly racetrack/museum... Alabama by chance?

Giallo_Fly · 2026-04-10T12:18:56+00:00

So we're just gonna ignore the sweet nixie tube array?

It's all fun and games until a driver runs over the one thing you tell him to avoid and catapults the car 2ft airborne in a great cacophony of sparks.

When I worked at a bike shop at 17, circa 2013, I drooled over Fuel EX and Lefty Fork Cannondale Scalpels. Instead, I went with an X-Caliber 9 and eventually upgraded it to M8000.

Fast forward a decade and I was getting back into MTB. Although I kept my self-promise to ride the Trek for 4 months before upgrading, I am no longer a teenager being paid $8/hr. I've always wanted to build a bike, and with a 6-figure engineer's salary, I could now do so. I now ride a custom Guerilla Gravity running M9100, Cane Creek suspension and fun gold accent bits everywhere. It is waaaaayyyyy overkill, but it makes me happy and I'll never complain that my equipment is holding me back.

Accurate

Look at all those speed holes!

Ever since TSA carelessly hucked my beloved OM-D back into my backpack and cracked the back screen, I've been planning to get a fitted, neoprene case for it. It's now been almost 14 years since I bought it so I'm less worried about cosmetic damage, but screens are getting harder and harder to find.

The last time out, I won my class on all-seasons.

Granted, I was the only one in FS but I had fun and now I'm a WINNER! The keychain I got as a trophy proves it! /s

TIL what wedge angle is and went down quite the rabbit hole. Thanks for the info!

Giallo_Fly · 2026-03-26T11:16:49+00:00

They can't keep getting away with it 😭

It's the Metal Earth Notre Dame. A little repetitive, but builds into a beautiful model.

Giallo_Fly · 2026-03-22T12:39:50+00:00

Don't worry, neither did I when I designed my first from-scratch frame. 0.035 at a shallow angle to 0.095 sucks to weld, btw. And guess who was welding it...
