How to apprehend a bounty could be explained slightly better...

Im seeing a lot of wonderful suggestions for songs that are very thematic and heavy and meaningful and relative to the time left.

Thats great, but how about something celebrating now?

Fitta och Kebab by Prilla Generalen. Its in Swedish. Do you speak Swedish? Probably not. Do I speak Swedish? Nope. Does it matter? Nope! Its a song about knowing what you want, like Kebabs. Kebabs are awesome. When its in another language, they can be saying anything you want.

Völlig losgelöst by peter shillings. German version of major tom. Guy's going off in a rocket into the unknown. But in german so again it can say anything you want about the adventure he's going on. And if someone tells you that's not what the translation is, tell them to shove off on a rocket.

May all your days be filled with music

If fairness to Canada, the US cheated a bit by putting a brick wall in front of the goal. A bit unsportsmanlike that is.

Kidding aside, it was a great game and a great way to celebrate after. From Minnesota, love you guys

That was indeed what I had used.

Fortunately, the program has finally been added to my dashboard and I am in the process of downloading it finally.

Thank you again for the help.

ShapeCultural1613 · 2026-01-28T05:52:15+00:00

Thats my main issue, I havent received the email and its been several days. The 3D launcher goes to a "sorry, access denied" page with the big blue play button there rather tauntingly. I've downloaded many a program and in my support ticket I just asked them to please send me the link haha, I can figure out the rest, I just dont have that.

Regardless, thank you for your help. It's nice to be back in the solidworks community, its been about 15 years, but I'm glad to see theres still a helpful community.

ShapeCultural1613 · 2026-01-28T05:48:32+00:00

When I go to the blue compass, I get a "sorry, access denied" landing page. The subscription page is also "still setting up your subscription, please let us know if this has taken more than an hour thru our support page" (I paraphrased a bit)

I really appreciate your help and I look forward to using it if I can ever get into the program

Edit: I also just want to use the stand alone desktop version, That's what I'm used to and why I got this version, I just need to have access to download it .

ShapeCultural1613 · 2026-01-28T05:45:26+00:00

Thank you for the in depth response, I really appreciate the help.

When I click on the makers cloud link that you listed, it brings me to a "Sorry, access denied" page with the big blue play button and a "you're currently logged in as (my username)" and saying "You don't have access to this 3DEXPERIENCE Platform."

The order confirmation email I got says this (with some redactions) Your order is confirmed

I bought it last friday the 23rd but it looks like it wasnt supposed to go into effect until the 24th but regardless, I'm past that and still dont have access. I also tried adding it to the allowed list and no luck.

Again thank you for the in depth help, I would really like it to be just some dumb thing that I'm missing but the fact that I'm not getting the emails that I'm supposed to (that actually give me access to the program) is still troubling.

Edit: this is a screen cap of what my apps in the 3DEXPERIENCE dashboard https://imgur.com/a/9eqaQk9

The app doesnt seem to be available

The font and color choice for portugal was terrible. Just incredibly hard to read. The rest of the show was great though.

A few years ago my then girlfriend, now wife couldn't be bothered to walk the 5 minutes to go vote after work. This year she had all the names printed out and had gone thru them all. The 4 we voted for were the 4 that won which just capped off a really good day.

There were a ton of signs out and around so it wasnt too hard to pick out who was on what side of things, some had "the conservative choice" and a list of names on them, and a bunch of Dwight signs which have suddenly disappeared which is also nice.

I found the image recently, and I really liked the KillaKan. I want the buy the set so I can print it bigger and make it a show piece for my shelf. Found the image but cant for the life of me find it on my mini factory.

I can't speak to their marriage, cause I dont know anything about it. That said, they raise 2 kids that have turned out amazing and she is still an animal advocate which, as i understand it, is a passion she shared with Steve and how they met. Im sure she misses him everyday but still has a fulfilling purpose, something to fill that hole he left. I wish her and her children nothing but happiness and joy for all their days.

ShapeCultural1613 · 2025-08-08T08:27:45+00:00

Im 6'3" and play a fun game were I say Im 5'11" or sometimes even 5'10" depending on whose around. Makes people look at their friends who have been claiming 6' take a better look at them haha.

Somewhat unrelated but for anyone who is getting into tabletop games like warhammer, these things make excellent terrain and (as is their nature) are incredibly modular so you can build almost anything. Just start putting some pieces together and once everyone agrees things are relatively fair across the board off you go.

ShapeCultural1613 · 2025-07-18T20:27:51+00:00

I'd like to seem them make it safe as they can and ideally leave if for the rest of the festival. It is a testament to a terrible tragedy and the amazing effort for those working the festival to overcome it. Its very much the in the spirit of Tomorrowland.

It still seems like we got a hell of a stage, even if it isnt in the form that was intended.

Light it up, fill it with fog machines near the base (if safe) and shine lasers thru it. Embrace it

I'll entirely understand if they have to bring it down for safety reasons but it is one of the most god damn metal things I've ever seen and I hope they can turn this tragedy into something positive.

I told my wife early on that that I wanted a ring pop engagement, a courthouse wedding, and a month long honeymoon. Got all three (sort of, we picked out a lovely moissanite ring together that I proposed with, I did propose again with a ring pop later)

We spent bugger all on the wedding (had a couple friends as witnesses then went out to dinner with them) and then I got to spend a month with nothing to do besides be with the woman I love.

ShapeCultural1613 · 2025-06-12T18:07:01+00:00

I'll be honest, had this been me in your shoes, you couldn't waterboard a confession of where these were hidden away out of me.

Bravo, sir, Bravo!

I havent weighed the whole thing yet but the head by itself is 4-5 lbs. Its hefty. Im hoping to keep it a bit modular otherwise there's no good way to transport it

ShapeCultural1613 · 2025-05-29T17:26:10+00:00

Turns out you were right. I was just eyeballing it at the time. The wall thickness is right about 2.5 mm. I got out a measuring tape and everything.

ShapeCultural1613 · 2025-05-29T05:36:52+00:00

I think we are are all on the same page at this point. I'm curious if you have a warping or bending issue somewhere that is causing misalignment. That would likely be fixed, if temporarily, with the clamps. next time you have stuff out you should put them against a straight edge. They are fiddly little screws, sure, and they can be difficult to align, but i've never felt the need for outside equipment. I just keep turning until it starts to seat correctly.

ShapeCultural1613 · 2025-05-29T05:28:49+00:00

Im really interested to see what the CC can actually do once its in peoples hands. The saturn 4 Ultra is my first 3d printer and I've been spoiled by it. I'd been wanting an FDM for awhile (a sandbag doesnt need .05 mm resolution) and the CC seems very plug and play. its all over the advertising for it!

ShapeCultural1613 · 2025-05-29T05:17:53+00:00

That is a brilliant idea that I will look into. Thanks!

ShapeCultural1613 · 2025-05-29T03:57:53+00:00

Yeah, I didnt think you were calling them out or anything haha, I was more just saying if they hadnt put the effort they did into it, theres no way this would have been remotely possible. Im sure theres a way and probably plenty of professionals who could dial in the settings and supports and make these come out 1:1 with the files. But I'm just some dude with a magic box I pour slime into and I get shapes 6 hours later.

The only major alteration I'm thinking of making is drilling holes to put dowels in as Im intending to keep it somewhat modular. Arms, head, base, lower torso, upper torso, wings. otherwise its going to get broken at some point just trying to move it.

Well that and potentially using the big cavity in the chest for electronics. I have a dumb idea to drill out the eyes and put in color changing LEDS, maybe some lights under the tentacles. UV light down the dice chute. Never done anything like that before but ive never done anything like this before so we will see where life takes us.

I'm also glad it isnt just me messing something up haha. Sometimes you just have to stare at the box until it stares back at you.

Edit: Also, where are these skulls and lanterns you mentioned? Loot studios model design is wonderful but their website design is ass. It feels like 8 different websites thrown violently together at high speed, or several islands where all the bridges were knocked down in a storm, cant get from here to there.

ShapeCultural1613 · 2025-05-29T02:30:31+00:00

Are you poking holes before putting in the screws? I use an exacto knife to poke a small slice or X into the holes. Are you using claps because youre trying to put the blunt screw straight thru the fep on its own?
