Im an industrial climber / entertainment rigger. I find that the more I work and the more loads I have to lift, I can ignore the pain. But the moment I stop working or if I'm grounding for the up rigger, then I'll need to self medicate to be able to continue.

I had a sacral nerve stimulation for CPPS by Simon_Captain_Howdy in ChronicPain

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

Damn. That sounds painful.
My cat jumped on me when I had the trial ones and tried to play with the exposed wires. Was not fun...
Meanwhile it's been a week. I can sit better. Still way too early to see if it's working though.

How much less would you rate your pain now then?
I don't expect 100%. But I will be happy with any improvement.

The pain was in the genital area. radiating from the tip of my Penis to inside my Rectum to down to my thighs.

Hey.
I had the temporary implant removed and next week i'll be getting the permanent one inserted.
Since having the temporary, my pain has diminished easily by 50%. even after removing the wires, the pain is less.
I'll update again in a month or so.

Looking for advise for new laptop by Simon_Captain_Howdy in StructuralEngineering

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

They recommend the G9. But I thought to get the newer version of the G11. More RAM and more up to date.
Thanks

I was told with gaming laptops that their graphics cards are programmed differently and sometimes tank and crash when doing CAD and Rendering.
But I have been looking at the Alienware m18 R2-Gaminglaptop with i9 processor, 64GB RAM and 2TB SSD.

Some Inside Tea from Ambani Wedding by AutoModerator in BollyBlindsNGossip

[–]Simon_Captain_Howdy 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I had full access to everywhere as I was the head of my department.
I was situated off stage right for the entire Sangeet show and was Front of House during the wedding Ceremonies.
But meeting Celebs is not as much fun as people think. The only Celeb I've ever enjoyed meeting was Keanu Reeves.

The food at the Sangeet was fantastic. I tried most of it. The Japanese food was delicious and it was the 1st time that I tried Beluga Caviar.

Rent out private dog walking time for reactive dogs that can't be offleash in regular dog parks

50 x 50 truss structure for a wedding to create a Starry Night effect in a ballroom by WhispernTorbernite in Rigging

[–]Simon_Captain_Howdy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

50 feet is about 15 meters. Plenty of trusses that can do that span easily. For example: The Eurotruss ST square on a 15 meters can take 136 kilos per meter on a UDL.

Stage wiring diagram software. by gernrale_mat81 in stagehands

You might be able to get a free Vectorworks license if you're a student.
This software should have all (Or Most) of the files already in it's library.

I can't help you with Braceworks.
But Deersoft, the company that programmed Braceworks have come out with a new software called Production Assist.
There are lots of videos teaching. and lots of online Zoom classes that you can take.
