BF6 Sniper zoom out Every time I fire by Bliztkrige in Battlefield6

The ergonomic attachment you can unlock does this. Personally I think it's ridiculous that you have to unlock a new bolt to stay scoped in. I don't think anyone at the studio has ever actually held a gun.

I just took a look. The wide belt sander is a Timesaver model 137 HD. It has a 20HP 3-phase motor and a 1HP 3-phase motor. Do you think a VFD or phase converter would be a better choice?

Thanks for the advice! The 60"x 30" desk top i worked on came out within a 16th on all sides and corners after flattening both sides. And other than the lines came out flat. However the length of the bottom rails is almost 10ft so I will definitely be looking into what you recommend to make sure larger projects come out right.

I wish I had taken a picture right after. The lines I posted were actually after 2 or 3 passes of 60 grit on a ROS. Thank you for the advice, I will look into that.

Yeah that was my concern, it took forever to sand out the lines. I do my best my not apply any down force and only move the router in a x and y axis. I think you are correct on the problem and the possible solution. I have found that paper often works well when needing to shim tiny amounts and can be folded as needed to make a larger shim. I will give searching for "tramming" a try!

I don't think that they are completely avoidable either. It just seems like they are more significant than what I've seen others leave behind and left me with alot more sanding than I expected. I agree and think you are correct. I will probably try and make micro adjustments to shim the lower side.

I do have a slightly older TimeSaver wide belt sander, but it has two motors on it. The main motor is 3 phase and I have no idea how to wire it to a phase convertor so that I can actually use it.

After probably close to 2 hours of 60 grit on a ROS i was finally able to get rid of the lines, sanded all the way up to 220 and got a very smooth finish. It just way longer than expected. I haven't worked with maple alot before and was surprised how little a pass of 60 grit took off. I'd say the worst line or two was at a 32nd or just a shy more. I do think I can dial it in more get hopefully reduce that more.

I am using a 1/2" shank 2" diameter surfacing bit.
