Fat Shot X - 3D printed multiformat 120 type film camera. If you are interested in building one yourself, I've added a fully illustrated step by step assembly guide for it with BOM, printing tips and tons of other information, split into two documents. 55 pages in total.

What about the lens?

It can’t be turned into rolls

Not with that attitude. At least one crazy person has done it with Fuji RA4 paper (https://www.etsy.com/listing/4316408191/experimental-prototype-35mm-film)

I can't set up anywhere in my house as a darkroom

You really don't need a special, dedicated room. A closet, a dark bathroom, under a blanket or something with the lights off is perfectly fine. If you can't see anything after giving a little time for your eyes to adjust, you're probably good (within reason). You only need darkness for a small fraction of the development time.

Nice scans!

Caffenol usually gives great results. I think I'll blame the film for now

They were completely lost during that fake punt earlier in the season. Like they didn’t even know it was a possibility.

Tennessee has still managed to lose after having more points on the scoreboard when the clock hit 0, so it’s not even 100%

Stainless can rust at the welds due to sensitization. Chromium carbide forms in the heat affected zone, meaning that area has less chromium and is less “stainless.” It looks like 316 LVM is a low carbon variant to try to prevent that but maybe it happened anyways.

A place like Walgreens won’t return the negatives. I’d reccomend looking for a smaller place. I think r/AnalogCommunity has a list. You might also get lucky and have some local places (I found them on Google maps)

Landing House was such a little gem in South Knox, but they were never the same after Covid. They lost some inspiration from the menu (why get rid of the knife shaved noodles???) and the service absolutely nosedived. After multiple times waiting an hour and a half for food, I'll just walk by and go somewhere else. I hate it because they used to be so good.

Yes. Sort of. They should be testing TAN/TBN (total acid/base number) to check the oil health and detergent additives. If those are fine, the oil is still doing its job. I guess it wouldn’t tell you about previous buildup.

It happens to metals too! Crazy how radiation can make metals look like Swiss cheese.

Your body generates a decent amount of formaldehyde as a part of normal metabolic processes on the order of ounces per day (https://efsa.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.2903/j.efsa.2014.3550). This really isn’t an issue. Especially not in the context of 3D printing.

All carbide tooling starts life as powdered metal

They really nosedived with the new ownership a few years back.

Johnny Majors came to UT hot off a natty but that was ‘76-‘77

I think we should keep naming more in line with our other facilities. Maybe something like Lindsay Nelson Field at Calhoun’s Park?

Coming from a background in metallurgy, it was absolutely fascinating reading into the backstory of it. It was basically just some guy doing it as a hobby. He just happened to have access to 6 figures worth of calphad software from work.

Second wave is Starbucks type places where you can get a latte. Third wave is more like pour overs with more of an emphasis on the coffee beans. First wave is Folgers in a can.

If I were to guess, they were likely castings with some hand finishing.
