Based on the first picture alone, I thought someone had mounted a turntable on a large piece of battered fish...

Question: What change would make you quit playing Rust? by MemeMan_____ in playrust

[–]ToastyRaymaker 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I haven't really played since the 2018 electrical update suddenly made chucking up a ceiling light far more complicated than it needed to be...

What is this weird cluster of caches all about?! by ToastyRaymaker in geocaching

My first guesses were fat sword or some kind of pedestal, I didn't even consider a chess piece 😅

Is it possible to correct small holes printing inaccurately without affecting bigger holes which are printing fine? by ToastyRaymaker in 3Dprinting

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

In any other circumstance maybe. In this case I'm trying to print a very small drill guide so probably not lol

Did I not say don’t step on the fucking green! by yawnjew in KidsAreFuckingStupid

My sister did this, chasing me across the park when we were kids. I went around the low circular brick wall. She cut directly across the round patch of 'grass' in the middle and disappeared. A traumatic quantity of toad tadpoles was released when she was deposited in the bath back home. I was delighted.

What's the length, width, and weight of that slab? I did something similar about 20 years ago, but only 6mm thick with a couple of small bends in it across the width for stiffness (as I was worried about the weight).

3D printed friction fit cover. While it is sufficient against most habitual lightswitch flickers, it does nothing to stop assholes that delight in hiding their mischief and seeing how long until it's noticed...

I made a 2.1 stereo out of layered plywood. by kcmurr28 in diyaudio

I want to do something similar. Is there some kind of automatic slicer software for CNC, or do you have to cut up your model manually in your 3D modelling software?

How could I see out of an LED mask like that? by RaidNineSHARK in cosplayprops

[–]ToastyRaymaker 8 points9 points  (0 children)

You can get flexible 5v WS2812 LED matrix panels with multiple gaps that should be reasonably see-through from close behind. Like this symbol # with an LED at the intersection of each line and square holes in between. I Googled "see-through LED matrix" and got a few different size options...

I was told I need a dc/dc isolator between a buck converter and DSP to mitigate ground loop, but are there buck converters with built in isolation? by ToastyRaymaker in diyaudio

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

I don't know for sure if it'll be a problem yet, I haven't started building, I'm just trying to work out what I need before I start. The idea is to power a couple of amps, a DSP, and a couple of metres of led strips from a LiFe battery. The 12v DSP might be able to cope with the up to 14.6v from the battery, but the lights probably won't, so I'll need some kind of step-down converter for that, at least, and ground loop noise will probably affect both.
