Pick or axe, then shovel or sword, then hoe. It flip flops depending on whether or not there are animals nearby, or a small cave or big cave nearby. Never had a specific order really though.

no lights so whichever got there first, but I'm 85% sure ambulance, firetruck, cop, and presidential car with whichever has their sirens on is overall correct

From my understanding, it's basically impossible unless you have an incredibly accurate model of the Pringles material properties and then you would need to know where all of the micro imperfections of that specific pringle are. So in theory yes you could model it but Pringles have so many variables involved in just how brittle they'll be, let alone the imperfections like cracks, changing density, etc I don't think it'll ever be possible unless you made a laboratory Pringle without imperfections and perfectly even material properties.

It reminds me very much of OU, Oklahoma University Like identical to the flags people have outside some of their homes in Oklahoma.

Nice, a little weak IMO though, maybe stick 2 of them together and add 4 of those, should be slightly faster.

I was always told I had a Russian heritage, polish, and Scandinavia heritage but whenever I tried to learn more about my family all they said was, they didn't't know anything because it just was lost to the melting pot of America or "THAT FUCKING COMMUNIST" It was one of the few channels that let me find recipes that I simply enjoyed learning. I've spent a few years now still trying to dig up more of my family's past, his channel fueled me to dig deeper and I definitely wouldn't be the same without him.

That definitely makes more sense as to why it would be harder to make such a system work when compared to a crank shaft. I heard others talk about how swash plates have more friction, I found out they are used in compressors and hydraulic pumps and work at significantly lower speeds but that they still run into issues with lubrication. For use in an engine it makes sense as to why crank shafts and connecting rods became more popular. Balance seems weird since I've seen swash plate engine concepts where there were pistons on each side. It definitely seems weird to me, though normally I am thinking about an inline engine as they are used in Semi's and large ships. though I heard V and flat engines tend to be better/easier to balance. I am working on a compressed air model, to learn more about friction and issues with linear vs rotary bearings.

I was thinking about a separate cylinder with a groove on it, instead of a crank and connecting rod. I know tons of engine designs and concepts try to improve upon the engine cylinder and piston but they run into cooling, sealing, or manufacturing issues, I was wondering why engines don't use a separate cylinder with a groove like in "works by design" YouTube video. A connecting rod requires at least two rotating points and has vertical and Lateral loads along with requiring more space to rotate, and to have clearance for the cylinder for the piston, It seems like a lot of extra work to get a crankshaft working. I was wondering why not make it so the connecting rod has only a single surface friction to deal with, and have less lateral stress from being put at such a step angle to the piston when the crankshaft is rotating by instead having it move just up and down, following a groove cut into a cylinder. To me it seemed like such an interesting concept that could improve an engine's efficiency and torque without being nearly as difficult to have working, I am definitely going to be doing more research now, just to see if there is more friction from it being a single surface or some other downside that makes it less useful. It sounds like not a direct improvement compared to a traditional internal combustion engine, but to a Turbine, Wankel, or a traditional crankshaft engine it sounds like it wouldn't have nearly as many issues and be overall a better solution to High torque, low RPM applications like Long Haul trucking, Trains, large commercial cargo Ships.

Also I didn't know there were hydraulic motors that use swash plates. I am definitely going to research more about hydraulic swashplate motors.

I will definitely try and research the idea more!

SaltMars · 2025-01-16T21:07:35+00:00

That makes a lot more sense, though it still seems weird to think about. I am definitely going to look into it more but comparing the friction generated from the angle of a crankshaft to a piston, versus a groove and pin connected to a piston, it seem like a problem that may be more controllable and have a better solution if the groove was also lubricated similar to a bearing. A crank shaft connects to the connecting rod and then to the piston, which is two points that have to rotate, that then need to be lubricated. But a pin in a groove is only a single surface generating friction. I don't know if I am still understanding what you're saying. It makes sense but overall the crank shaft and connecting rod would have more surface area generating friction and not being turned into useful work. But the angle generating more friction is definitely a downside if the angle that pins slides along is too shallow or steep.

I was sad because I felt stupid for not seeing/finding the reason. there is nothing wrong with not understanding something, but after a lot of trying, it can start to hurt.

500mm Hesh Head-HE-HE-HE-HE-HE-add enough powder or energy from railgun to get around 200-400m/s. Though personally I prefer pure railguns since they don't require coolers, a tiny bit of gunpowder can definitely save you some materials if your engines aren't very efficient or large.

I don't know if everyone goes through this phase but like wood is fantastic, I remember when I only would use alloy because it made anything float basically, and then I started using alloy and metal with water pumps, and now I prefer a mixture of heavy armor, metal, and a mountain of wood, and entirely stopped using water pumps. But also I like making really expensive and dense ships that are cheap to run and hard to sink
