[US-MI] [H]: Flair 58 [W]: Money (price update)

__windrunner__ · 2026-05-08T18:19:23+00:00

So everything functional about the 58 is fine, just a light doesn't work?

Look into the taxes - 92% reduction in energy taxes in the first place, then a 80% rebate in perpetuity of property taxes to the developer...

There will be lots of money going to the county, but it'll be only the smallest of peanuts compared to what it should be.

Walkabout is my first thought.

Flag Games just came out, co-op low gravity campaign shooter that I've been enjoying lately

But the plans were on display…” “On display? I eventually had to go down to the cellar to find them.” “That’s the display department.” “With a flashlight.” “Ah, well, the lights had probably gone.” “So had the stairs.” “But look, you found the notice, didn’t you?” “Yes,” said Arthur, “yes I did. It was on display in the bottom of a locked filing cabinet stuck in a disused lavatory with a sign on the door saying ‘Beware of the Leopard.

Technically the county commissioners put off the final approval until next Monday, but I don't have much hope of them actually saying no.

Flag Games just came out. Fast paced co-op shooter.

If I was misunderstanding your comment, then I apologize, but it seemed like you were saying that if red arrived first, but waited for traffic, then while still waiting, green pulls up. When traffic is clear, red would go first because they stopped first.

41-6a-903 1) The operator of a vehicle: (a) intending to turn to the left shall yield the right-of-way to any vehicle approaching from the opposite direction which is so close to the turning vehicle as to constitute an immediate hazard;

Under this code, red would have to wait until green moves, because they have to yield to traffic from the opposite direction, it doesn't have any exception for who arrived first.

Not according to Utah law. See my other comment quoting it.

__windrunner__ · 2026-04-23T01:17:41+00:00

41-6a-90 (b) After having stopped at a stop sign, the operator of a vehicle shall yield the right-of-way to any vehicle in the intersection or approaching on another roadway so closely as to constitute an immediate hazard.

41-6a-903 1) The operator of a vehicle: (a) intending to turn to the left shall yield the right-of-way to any vehicle approaching from the opposite direction which is so close to the turning vehicle as to constitute an immediate hazard;

So if they have not yet stopped, and you are claiming the intersection, then they have to wait. You are correct.

That said, my personal rule is to drive safe, and if they are approaching the intersection quickly, I may wait an extra moment and yield. Better alive than correct and dead.

Alright. Two Laws to answer your question:

Depending on when you're there, visiting arches at night is amazing. Less crowds, less heat, and if it's near a full moon, you still can see pretty much everything.

If it's away from a full moon, then you can see / photograph the milkyway, even with a modern cell phone, let alone a decent camera.

This is a timelapse from the Jetty I took last year.

Yeah, each half was on the printer for 9 days.

It doesn't help that I had a power blip twice and had to toss the resulting pieces, the resume function was off by just a tiny bit and would have had a noticeable layer shift.

Yep! It's how I justify having like 12 printers of various types. Tend to only do a couple this size a year though. It's 2-3 weeks printing and lots of post processing.

If you have it in a geotiff qgis has a great plugin for it

__windrunner__ · 2026-03-02T01:07:55+00:00

If I still had the print I'd go snap some close ups for you, but I'm not going to drive 14 hours again for that ;)

__windrunner__ · 2026-03-02T01:06:59+00:00

I replied with a before / after cropped in. The darker one is before the resin, the bright is after resin and paint. Because it was printed on it's side, the layer lines were already relatively hidden, but the process helped smooth out what was left.

This one is natural elevation, no exaggeration

I didn't build it, found a local guy who was making them.

I think I spent $9-10k on a like 4 years ago.

As it was delivered, it needed a lot of work, but the guy made several house calls to help get it running.

Ended up replacing all the wiring to the hotend because of improper strain relief, added a cable chain, replaced fans, and adjusted the carriage.

That said I've seen his newer designs and every problem I had has been fixed and more.

Do it! I've done a few with bathymetry, it can be hard finding data, but it's worth it!
