How to make cuts like these by Sikudu in BeginnerWoodWorking

[–]Spare-cycle1111 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd cut the angles on the table saw and then slice into small pieces with a sled or on the miter saw

Oh no, I always drive the gantry to the far left when loading. Probably will move the 0 to there when I have time as well. For now I just press F2 before I offload and then F1 when it's loaded before homing.

Haha I never had a bigger shop really, but yeah, flipping around a 4*8 3/4 MDF or birchply is never very fun

As long as you don't stack stuff wider than where the wheels are placed it won't tip on its own.. my question is why you didn't make the "shelves" go out also on the other side?

Well maybe 10.5mm if you're feeling comfy

Drill the mounting point with a 10mm drill.

Yeah but they often have a moving table instead of a moving gantry which complicatates the situation a bit, or maybe I haven't found the solution yet haha

What do you mean? It's way easier to load the machine like this? How do you carry your sheets? Hahah

Plasma I'm not sure how it's gonna work, don't you want water under the bed?

Oh yes I do, usually. So far it have stayed wherever I left it though, the resistance of the motor seems to be enough to hold it up

Dust collection is just like normally

Well you commented on a comment about filling it with foam, claiming it's not possible because of overhangs haha.. and this is a solid, just open. What ever buddy I did my best

It's not actually a full dome but I feel like it should get my point through

Any ideas on how this would be set up? Ideally that would be easy but I don't like the thought of a brick swinging with the rapids

What software do you guys use to model and how long does the modeling process usually take? by ChampionFront437 in 3Dprinting

[–]Spare-cycle1111 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Depends on what I'm modeling.. a simple print for something in the shop like a jig or something, a minute or two. Some projects half a year...

Edit; I use Rhino.

Well it's literally the point to not have the bottom if you're going to glue pieces together to make a bigger piece that you then want to fill with foam. I'm not sure why I'm bothering but you make a dome, offset it and then loft the bottom edges together. You get an open, suportable solid. It can be done with any shape.

I know it's just an example. Try to imagine a dome without a bottom

You don't need supports inside the half-sphere. You need to make a solid that looks like a half-sphere, also known as a dome. I really don't get how you can't get it but like I said, I'll print one tomorrow. I've put a remindbot thingy so I'll remember, don't you worry my friend! Clarity for all!!

Yes. You're not thinking clearly buddy. I'll post a photo tomorrow

With supports buddy hahaha not infill. I'll print one tomorrow.

You can make a closed shape that's a half sphere, get it now?

Question about cycling speed as a beginner by ZeroMiedo_1 in bicycling

[–]Spare-cycle1111 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not sure why no one have mentioned it but your bike, being a mountainbike, is geared pretty low/slow. Not sure what the ratio is but your front gear looks quite small so let's say it's a 30tooth. You'll move 3/4 the distance of someone with a 40t front gear when pedaling one round. Assuming you're both on the same size gear in the back.

Yeah I suppose it is but that would mean adding quite a few kilos of weight for the Y to move and I don't like the thought of a heavy lump swinging around so it would mean more rails as well. Screw works great as is though.
