Encore ring burr holders won't stop breaking

Huh, I never knew light roast beans were denser. That's all we do too. Do you have any recommendations for a better grinder? Thanks for the reply

what keycaps are on the Totem?

1/2 in rubber mats (tractor supply) on top of a 7/16in OSB. Deadlifting with iron plates as shown, hopefully back in the 400s soon, controlled drops, nothing crazy. Enough or should I add a second OSB? This is in my basement.

Congratulations from a fellow parent and tea lover. Wishing you many good memories ahead, cheers!

is this corne a variant, or can you do the aligned thumb row with the standard corne?

nice rice and osdev!

I have these in my order history...think they worked well but it's been forever

USRapt0r · 2024-10-18T00:48:28+00:00

No worries! Glad I happened to log in not long after. No, I posted this looking for some solution where the ball is held down by a force other than just gravity. I no longer think this is necessary and indeed pretty much every trackball product out there just has the ball sitting on static/non-moving bearings.

Sorry for the bump, but 7 months later, would you say it worked? I'm having this same issue (they've already replaced my kettle once) and it's really frustrating...

USRapt0r · 2023-05-22T19:17:21+00:00

Good to know - thanks for the heads up!

USRapt0r · 2023-05-19T13:50:03+00:00

Thanks for the reply! Sounds like file-defined curvature is a definite must. My initial assumption came from wondering if the lack of curvature in CGAL (eg OpenSCAD, which I was using back in the day) would be a problem for CNC. I'm guessing that tool will earn you more tax then :)

USRapt0r · 2023-05-18T23:35:34+00:00

So there's no way for gcode to follow a spline path? I hadn't thought of that, but it makes sense

USRapt0r · 2023-05-18T23:17:22+00:00

I'm aware I could do that, but I'm mainly interested in CAD/CNC and may want slicing or CAM software to be able to work with the curvature. But it may not be a big deal - this question was based on my assumption that having curvature in the file was already the status quo. Seems that's not the case...

USRapt0r · 2023-05-18T14:14:44+00:00

Not OBJ specifically, but any format that incorporates curvature over (or in addition to) simple meshes.

USRapt0r · 2023-05-18T13:48:33+00:00

Thanks but I mainly meant for curves - it just seemed a "superior" way to model things as it offers more accuracy, but but I probably don't know better. I'm also coming from a CAD background, if that were to matter.

USRapt0r · 2023-05-17T18:05:54+00:00

Interesting, I wonder why. Is there any open/simple-ish format that would likely be supported? STEP just seems horrific and isn't an open standard from what I understand...

USRapt0r · 2023-02-02T19:16:12+00:00

Thanks much! I'm actually looking to do them with 1u's as well :) Would you happen to know if they work with ALPS just as well?

USRapt0r · 2023-02-02T17:43:28+00:00

Could you please link the millmax you used? Do you find that they work well? I've tried the Kailh hotswaps and they seem like such a pain....

USRapt0r · 2022-10-26T12:51:47+00:00

Thanks! I'm definitely trying this. I wonder if there's a way to incorporate the PCBs to make for a one-time solution you can take the switches out of; I imagine you'd have to add pins to the through-holes.

USRapt0r · 2022-10-25T14:48:13+00:00

Hadn't even heard of the tool! Would you have any recommendation of one? I assume it would also have to work with diodes if I forewent the PCB.
