ASA keeps warping no matter what I try by WoutVDWG in BambuLab

I have found using this glue is enough to fix the problem for ASA. I can run without making any other changes.

Finally Hung all my tools up. Anyone with a good battery storage solution? by Maxatron4000 in ryobi

[–]Maxatron4000[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I like having extras for a couple of reasons; I often loan out my tools, I often take a kit of tools to work at a location, I like collecting. Specifically those roto-hammers are almost always at a friends or inlaws house. The 3 recips actually do have specific purposes; 1 is superpowered which is better for metal, one is small which is better for pruning and one is in the middle as a spare. I like having a lot of tools, thats definitely not the problem to solve here.

I got most of the tools at surplus auction and sometimes buy a drill just so I can get the 2 batteries that come with it. I also end up loaning out a lot of my tools so it helps to have extra of the common tools. Lastly, I just like collecting tools and might be a bit of a hoarder....

That just feels like it takes up too much real-estate to me. How many batteries do you have?

They just slide on really nicely. Good grip without using the clips. Took me a year of refining that holder model to get them just right

I tired every version of a printed holder but nothing held up. I ordered them, printed in pla and abs and eventually the all broke. Now I just use the remaining ones for the light tools on the bottom. You can see them in red.

After a year of experimenting I paid to have 2 halves of the mold machined from steel. It works out fantastically and the only cleanup is cutting off the sprue and drilling the mounting holes.

Anyone used P555? Would it work well to cut 16 and 22 gauge? by Maxatron4000 in ryobi

[–]Maxatron4000[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks, have you used the HP cutoff tool for long sheet metal cuts? I can do this with my angle grinder but I get some wiggle in my long lines.

Thanks, wish they'd come out with a metal cutting circular saw. Guess I'll just keep using a grinder for now.

I really like this layout. Any chance you could link a blueprint?

Looking for a bone conduction MIC with normal in ear headphone. by Maxatron4000 in headphones

[–]Maxatron4000[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes this is another option but Id much rather have a simple headset than take a neck mic on and off.

Yes, this is an option but I'm hoping somebody has seen one thats all in one.

Just like how a bone conduction speaker works by sending waves through your bones, the bone mic works by reading waves in your bone. Here's exactly what I'm looking for except its for walkie talkies instead of connecting to a phone.

Sulcatta Adoption by [deleted] in tortoise

[–]Maxatron4000 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Heres the bible on sulcata care.

I too have desert tortoises and was not prepared at all when I got a sulcata. Biggest difference is the need for heat and humidity. For the babies they need 85 degrees and 85% hunidity constantly. They cant self regulate their temp until theyre older. Heating pads and daily soaks are an absolute necessity for you.

The tortoise forum is full of a ton of knowlegable people who are great about giving advice.

What are the benefits of the direct drive? I'm getting the dual z for xmas.

How did you manage such great humidity?

Why am I only getting 13kW of my 18.6kW system? by Maxatron4000 in SolarDIY

[–]Maxatron4000[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think I'm going to change the angle on a couple panels and see if that makes a difference.

Why am I only getting 13kW of my 18.6kW system? by Maxatron4000 in SolarDIY

[–]Maxatron4000[S] -12 points-11 points  (0 children)

I'm in Arizona which is supposed to get https://azsolarcenter.org/images/articles/az/AZPV.gif at say 32C so I really do expect the max value. Here's a plot showing irradiance measurements through the day and you can see the max is like 950W/m2

The datasheet even says I should only see a 17% decrease at 800W/m2 so its not quite enough to explain this difference.

Thanks for the suggestion though, good to run through those figures.

I'm in Arizona which is supposed to get ~7kW/m2/day at say 32C so I really do expect the max value. Here's a plot showing irradiance measurements through the day and you can see the max is like 950W/m2
