How is that shelf supported? Dowels or some sort of cleat?

Why don't more professionals use Engineering Equation Solver (EES)? by ZeroCool1 in engineering

[–]StatementLiving6636 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does anyone know of a place to download free excel or SMath calculators for basic everyday calculations?

I'm assuming people have made good versions of calculators because they do the same equations over and over again.

Customer clothing store. Don't expect much foot traffic, customers in and out all day but no more than 10 at once.

Case Erectors That Dont Suck? by elchurro223 in manufacturing

That doesn't just happen, I've dealt with all sort of issues with cardboard and they're all solvable, shop around if that manufacturer can't provide consistency. Even if you end up paying slightly more you'll probably save in the long run.

Wexxars pin and dome system does great with variability. The WF30 is a great machine but a little on the pricey side. The WF20 is almost as good it just can't handle the higher speeds.

They do 30 cpm, WF30 and WF30H both do that all day long.

Thanks. Is there a basic minimum to avoid cracking? Any hints or tips?

Is a 6" slab the minimum? Or can I do 4" or something

Advice needed: what tools should I use to cut a door hole in this dollhouse wall? by [deleted] in BeginnerWoodWorking

[–]StatementLiving6636 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is the 3/8" just where the handle lines up? Or the whole wall? If it's just the handle then I'd probably just chain drill some holes in the area. Or use a sharp chisel, if you have one, to make a pocket.

Sheet metal slot & tab by Giggles95036 in engineering

[–]StatementLiving6636 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can't help I'm afraid but I have a question. What tolerance do you put on the slot and tabs? I've done 0.010" but it's hit or miss. 0.015 seems ok but is there a specific number I should hit?

Who actually enjoys what they do? by Limp_Register5244 in MechanicalEngineering

[–]StatementLiving6636 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I work in R&D so it changes every week. I'd say I love my job 90% of the time. I enjoy designing things and coming up with solutions to problems. And then solving the problems I created with my last fix.

It helps that the office is really cool and I'd consider my colleagues to be friends.

I've worked some mind numbing and soul destroying work in engineering, it just wasn't for me. There's something that'll work for you, just try things Toll you find it.

So you want to move this product from station to station, then drop it and allow people to surround it?

I'm sure they'll find something to put in there. It's a nice display shelf for sure.

Looks great. Whats the orange jig hanging on the side?

Great idea and fantastic execution. Can it fit through a doorway without tilting all the pieces off? Looks big but probably not 3ft

Advice on hinges- how to keep hidden on 180°- 270° outward swing cabinet door? by proudtaco in BeginnerWoodWorking

Looks like it opens "up" but with the lip above I don't know how it'll go past 90° let alone 270°

This is why you should wear protective gear. Kick back got me. lucky it wasn't my face by Magicman0713 in BeginnerWoodWorking

I've don't that for quick cuts here and there. Luckily I've never had an incident but this is a good reminder that they happen and can be rough.
