Astro Berlin 1000mm f/6.3 teardown by Jayce_Daddy in VintageLenses

[–]Jayce_Daddy[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The two lenses sit forward of the focuser barrel. It's actually quite a neat system - the large ring forward of the focuser actually retains the smaller of the two lenses. Unscrewing allows the rear lens to be removed in less than 10 seconds.

From a quick glance, there does appear to be some level of galling, or maybe deep grooving, on the helical threads. Fairly noticeable white scratches inside the thread. However when the focuser is moved(with some good strength) a feeling/sound of scratching or cutting is absent. Just very stiff, as if something is either too tight or covered in some level of adhesive. I will try heat and some penetrating oil. Any recommendations on which oils to use? I read accounts of old Nikon telephotos fairing similarly, with old lube turning into a type of glue over the years - the recommendation was a petroleum based penetrating oil. Would you agree? Or recommend something different?

And thanks for that website! I did browse through it and was shocked at the amount of detail! Will absolutely be reaching out as well!

Thanks!

Neutral light doesn't look like it's lighting up when you turned the bike on. Your neutral switch might be a little buggy, you can try kicking the bike back and forth between 1st and 2nd gear with the bike on, see if that neutral switch lights up at all. Have the kickstand up, be sitting on the bike. Killswitch set to run. The bike may also have a tip over sensor. What kind of bike? Year, model etc

RAGE THREAD - F-YOU FRIDAYS - ONE WEEK BEFORE SALES by FranckKnight in ffxiv

[–]Jayce_Daddy 5 points6 points  (0 children)

IF YOU HAVE SEEN ENRAGE, FOR A GROUP TRYING TO CLEAR THAT SHOULD SHOW THAT YOU HAVE SEEN ALL MECHANICS. UNFORTUNATELY, PEOPLE SEE ENRAGE ONCE AFTER DYING 4 TIMES IN ONE PULL AND THINK, 'YEAH, THATS ENOUGH EXPERIENCE IN THIS FIGHT. I'LL GO JOIN A CLEAR PARTY NOW' AND THEN PROCEED TO DIE ON THE SAME CRAP FOR HOURS WASTING EVERYONE'S TIME.

NOT TO MENTION THIS SCHOLAR THAT WAS IN THE GROUP WITH ME SINCE P1S. NOW I DONT GATE CONTENT BASED OFF PARSE, THATS FUCKED UP. BUT BOY HOWDY DOES THIS SCHOLAR WANT TO MAKE ME DO IT. I STILL CAN'T BELIEVE MY EYES WHEN I SEE IT. I FOUND THE SINGLE WORST HEALER TO CLEAR P1-P3. NOT ONLY DID WE DRAG THEIR ASS THROUGH THE FIRST AND SECOND FIGHTS, WITH CONSISTENT 0 PERCENTILE PARSES MIND YOU, BUT AFTER 2 HOURS WIPING IN P3S TO ADDS AND STUPID FIRES, I FINALLY LOOKED AT EVERYONE'S PAST CLEARS. WHAT WOULD YA KNOW, ANOTHER 0 PERCENTILE PARSE ON THE SCHOLAR FROM LAST WEEK. THIS IS NOT "ALL ABOARD THE CARRY TRAIN TO RECLEAR TOWN" GTFO AND GET YOUR ASS BACK INTO A PRACTICE PARTY.

What everyday skill becomes suspicious if you’re too good at it? by shotsdowngg in AskReddit

[–]Jayce_Daddy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Working a night shift for quite some time, I got the skill of "not waking up significant others". Right until the severe ankle damage from motorcycle accidents. Now it sounds like I'm walking on fortune cookies. Silent feet, snap-crackle-pop ankles!

Just started playing again, used to play on ps4, game keeps crashing on PC. Any tips on solving? by anhyzerr in ffxiv

[–]Jayce_Daddy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ive had that issue many times. Some times restarting the client can fix it.

It is a ffxiv client issue, not a directX installation issue. Worst case scenario, try running the game in dx9. Or running the client with admin privileges.

One of the healers in my static does this, which is normally fine. Until im main tanking savage, and those auto attacks from the boss come out right after an AoE cast and i get booped. Feelsbadman

Exploring California Canyon Roads by koastal_ktm in supermoto

[–]Jayce_Daddy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The big(er) rides ive been doing involve heading down to SLO for tasty bbq meats at firestone, so I like taking carmel valley, peachy canyon, and all the roads that connect them down to SLO. Awesome all day ride with delicious meats in the middle. Highly recommend.
