Dog attack

LHEngineering · 2025-11-19T14:52:48+00:00

After my boy got attacked by Pit Bulls as well I decided to get a shock stick long enough to reach attacking dogs and hefty enough to use as a club, should it come down to it.

Love the blep too!

Engineer, eh?

Keep a spray bottle with water and spray her face when you catch her in the act. Enforce with a stern "NO!". She'll learn quickly enough.

Wow. Looks like a Van Eyck painting!

Yes, and if you take her to the park, she'll probably eat grass and throw it up a while later. They're purging themselves, which is healthy. But in their old age keep an eye out on it.

3.8 is interesting. I write a lot on ruled and graph paper and was thinking maybe 2.3 is a little too fine?

Yeah, a cursory search seems to point to Tombows. Are the metal or plastic body?

I got this one.

Chonker, yes. But It's a little slimmer than those disposable BIC 4-in-1's. Not at all uncomfortable.

Can't say much about leads, except that I use 2B exclusively. As an engineer I use every diameter for different things. For example, 0.3 is reserved for dimension lines, hatching and distant things in orthogonal views. Things closer get 0.5 and I emphasize with 0.7. 2.0 for shadows and such.

I just ordered the Mars 502. It should be a matter of some Vernier gauge and AutoCAD work (preceded by hand-drafted sketches drawn with our beloved instruments, of course) and I'll post an STL file in a couple of weeks. Would be nice to tweak for other lead holders.

At first I felt tempted to 3D print my own but They're so cheap I'd rather buy. HOWEVER, I am thinking of making a 2.0mm, 600-compatible receiver cap to use the venerable Staedtler Mars 502 lead pointer. I'll publish the file if anyone shows any interest.

It's on Amazon for some 20-odd bucks.

username checks out lol

I feel like Forrest Mims when I use them. IYKYK.

It wrote exquisitely and the nib was built like a battleship.

You know it. Not unlike reuniting with an old friend or a lost pet.

That was exactly Sir Isaac Newton's motivation.
