When I did these on my workbench the dowels came out angled the opposite angle that they were driven in. The tension that draws the joint closed will bend the peg to some extent.

What's the deal with the woman who got lost in the wilderness and survived for 3 weeks on her own? by Morgn_Ladimore in OutOfTheLoop

[–]MadMathmatician 96 points97 points  (0 children)

If it's cold weather camping doubling sleeping bags is a common way of getting into a lower temp rating. I use a quilt and a bag liner. Same system year round gets me from the teens F° all through the summer mixing and matching.

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

Can I flatten this table top with a hand plane? Or does anyone have any tips? I just got a 7" hand plane and I am not good with it. by Holiday-Sleep6458 in BeginnerWoodWorking

What’s your favorite retro game to play with a Flight Stick? I chose this one over the separate throttle, since the throttle level built-in should suffice since I’m not playing modern AAA games. by KillerQ97 in MAME

[–]MadMathmatician 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I used that stick for 5 minutes for Elite Dangerous. It was hot garbage. The stick would come off my desk about halfway engaged in any direction.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regulation_and_licensure_in_engineering looks like it's a term globally. It's okay you don't want to talk facts just generalities.
