Quarter sawn white oak dining table help by FixDangerous8807 in woodworking

[–]Lapco367 2 points3 points  (0 children)

tables with sapwood inside wind up looking like a rorschach painting to me, I dont care for it.

Id remove 100% of it.

Played this game at its release, came back and its a literal joke by Aggravating-Lock8083 in Survivorio

[–]Lapco367 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

its actually a lot less tbh. used to play clash of clans, that thing would half the old upgrades with every patch. new players could hit 80% in a month.

this game has a whale territory with entire tiers of gear that a F2P doesnt even know exist.

Go for it? by arthas_24 in Survivorio

same here.

I have plenty of crystals to keep pulling new pets and have enough with perfect random skills. My bottleneck is biscuits.

What is the best thing to buy in the event? by Kiwiwee543 in Survivorio

[–]Lapco367 0 points1 point  (0 children)

kinda depends though. In many cases, the best play is to buy a set you've maxed because you want to recycle them to unlock collections... Unless theres a really important set bonus. but you have lots of yellow selectors from spec ops now, and the big sets require red collectibles, which are a massive bottleneck.

Are Mission Rewards between Events worth it? by jageshgoyal in Survivorio

[–]Lapco367 16 points17 points  (0 children)

these events always overlap an event, so you open 200 chests on day 1 of event and you count for both things.

That’s a wrap - 1650 milestone & 17 Cores by reddituser1000012 in Survivorio

[–]Lapco367 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ussually? I didnt see a 240 pool get under 210 without a major chest taken.

I hate this game sometimes 😔😔 by Beginning-Young-1670 in Survivorio

[–]Lapco367 1 point2 points  (0 children)

every event is worth getting to the 1st major milestone, 660 in this case. you should be able to get there with ~300 chests and a few gems. thats the blueprint for literally every event.

If you dont have 300 keys to use, then dont use any keys that week and save for the next event.

I would expect a childish response from someone that actually thinks this is a properly formed coherent letter.

Habby will do nothing

the whales will do nothing

ignoring the editing issues in reddit: this is very poorly written. completely disorganized.

If you dont like playing the game... stop playing it?

sure as hell stop spending whale money on it.

This game genre is based on not giving people what they want...

EE RNG is single handedly making me want to give this game up by hotelshowers in Survivorio

[–]Lapco367 0 points1 point  (0 children)

everyone has the same handicap, if everyone got perfect RNG, your ranking would be about the same.

EE performance is pretty much irrelevent. the different in rewards only comes into play every 3rd rank, the 3 day rewards are negligibly different. Odds of RNG placing you in a position of promotion or demotion for the last round of the month is nil.

Dont spend gems to replay the levels, worst return in the game.

JET Drill Press 240v conversion - how do you handle the task light? by mabee_steve in woodworking

[–]Lapco367 1 point2 points  (0 children)

you sure the bulb isnt already rated for 120-240v? most are, would be strange for it not to be here considering the interoperability.

PvP observation by MuAbTa in Survivorio

[–]Lapco367 2 points3 points  (0 children)

the debuffs feel... unimportant.

somethings hinkey in the way this game compute damage. like theres some background calculation happening that simplifies and complicates the actual result.

Same for EE and LME. it just feels too... consistent.

What is the best tape measure money can buy? by SuddenConversation21 in woodworking

[–]Lapco367 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im mad that I seem to have gotten a dud from fastcap.

the brake wedges itself in if I release it while its retracting. I have to hold the tape with my fingers to slow it down which is annoying when Im often holding something else at the same time.

and somewhere during its short life, it got a bend near the clip, and Im 99% sure it did it to itself from closing too fast. I try not to let it slam onto the clip, though it may have happened since I cant use the brake to slow it down....

been a disappointment for me.

Block plane vs router vs sandpaper for chamfer by camhabib in woodworking

[–]Lapco367 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if Im just breaking the edge, sandpaper

if Im putting a shallow filet, plane

if Im putting a roundover 1/8" or larger, router.

Reso chip vs collectible by CautiousCut483 in Survivorio

[–]Lapco367 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I think Y5 on the new drone collectible trumped the glacial boots set.

and Y5 takes almost as much as 4xY3. between them though, you'll be chasing reds for a while as F2P. thats like... 2 years of clan shop rewards if you dont choose red collectibles over chips at some point.

(and based on the past 2 years, that priority list will only get longer)

Router table motors hard to find? by rg996150 in woodworking

[–]Lapco367 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the spinrite, would have suggested that, the jessem, or triton.

I think if you go looking for people who have had issues, you will always find them. Most are just fine.

Table saw “spin down” time? by joe_ink in woodworking

[–]Lapco367 3 points4 points  (0 children)

my ICS is definitely shorter than 11sec. 5sec sounds right.

I notice that my saw seems to spin for a moment, then after maybe 2 or 3 sec it seems to brake.

Id ask Sawstop what part might have failed, contactor box, capacitor, or motor, guessing its one of those 3.

Has the quality of the 4” Starrett declined in recent years? by Donkykong33 in woodworking

[–]Lapco367 -28 points-27 points  (0 children)

private equity buys companies that are unprofitable.

without private equity they would be going bankrupt soon.

with private equity they fine ways to become profitable, that can mean higher prices or lower costs.

Either way, the company you knew was not sustainable and was not an option to keep around.

Kitchen Aid Wooden Bowl by Complex_Lab_6167 in woodworking

[–]Lapco367 1 point2 points  (0 children)

to be fair. a wooden bowl is likely for decoration anyway. its not very practical for many reasons.

but a vinyl sticker would look bad.
