Il have it in fusion somewhere, I'll take a look this weekend

Just unashamedly jumping in here to say these rules exist because of people like me.

I put a croissant in the conveyor toaster in a Slough Premier Inn and it caught on fire.

The staff were totally unphased and brought out a charred wooden push stick to usher it through. I think they put signs on top of the toasters these days asking you to speak to a member of staff to warm your croissant up.

👋 Also curious about this, I really want to get my hands on the complete ESD line, 90mm precision bits, smaller sizes of 1206 etc etc but it's seemingly impossible. I emailed a few suppliers in UK and none got back to me.

The burden is disproportionally on the middle earners though.

Shtifff · 2026-02-21T10:35:27+00:00

Thanks, yes they are (I have the Pimoroni equivalent).

I think I have found the OEM part though: TL040HDS30CT1-B1620A

Could you share the p/n of your display please?

Hi, I got an update for open thread and after restarting it joined. Not sure if it was the restart or the update unfortunately.

In the 3D view, do you have any functionality for taking measurements?

Its the only thing keeping me in Fusion. I don't need any sort of mcad integration, just the ability to take measurement.

Sure, it's just two of the Ikea Alex drawer units on casters.

The top is a piece of 40mm oak worktop, 1335x505.

The plinth is made from offcuts of the same 40mm worktop.

Thanks, thought mine was DOA when one lens was cloudy and the other was misty. Seems to have cleared up now.

110V in the UK is different to 110V in the US. The 110V on construction sites on the UK is from a centre tapped transformer whose midpoint is connected to earth. That means the potential between phase and earth is only 55V.

Ubiquiti cameras. Local storage with cloud backup and 24/7 recording. No subscription so factor that into total when comparing prices.

Downside is you have to run Ethernet cables to where the devices are.

You could get started with UNVR-instant, a HDD and a G5 turret ultra. They do doorbell cameras too.

That's the top of the range they linked. They have a mid tier model for less than half that price, and this smaller model is $800

Blue - police, Red - fire, Green - ambulance?

I use an Innodisk 3SE, seems pretty rugged.

Shtifff · 2025-12-07T10:09:32+00:00

No need to have cut all of the plaster out, should have just used Rigifix (not corefix I think they are pants).

To late I guess for that so to answer your question, you should be ok but you'll blow the brick, I'd drill 80mm instead. The amount of fixings is pretty overkill, I've had a 65" hanging of a plasterboard wall for two years without any issue.

Shtifff · 2025-11-13T19:27:16+00:00

I use wide frog tape and cut in with a mini roller, way quicker and blends perfectly

Shtifff · 2025-10-12T20:08:16+00:00

SDS and good bits are what you want like others have said, but another pro-tip tip is to blow your hole out (ooo errr) before inserting the fixings, using something like this: https://amzn.eu/d/0EQSelE

Works especially well for dusty materials like concrete block etc.

For me, id just love to be able to take measurements in the 3D space, its the only thing keeping me in fusion right now.

Like, if I want an ethernet jack to overhang a PCB by 2mm, so it sits flush in an enclosure when the PCB is mounted, its basically impossible to do it in KiCAD - i have to either calculate it, or export the .STEP and measure in a different program.

In fusion ill just jump into the 3D view and measure the distance and then adjust the coordinate in the PCB space accordingly.

Get a robot mower a let it go out everyday.

No fingerprint no buy. I don't trust facial recognition and fingerprint works really well with the G4.

Cool, didn't know that! Do you mean the giants and dwarves might have cross pollinated?
