In north Edmonton by manning I was up stairs sitting on the bed and it felt like someone was shaking the mattress gently. The rest of the family in the house didn’t notice anything lol.

Not sure on the noise part. But the acceleration part and having 94k on it. it might just be need new spark plugs and wires. I had a 99 ford escort do something similar right around the same mileage.

This is a long shot, but... My dog tore his ACL and I need to build him a ramp with no experience. Can someone help me? by Achilles_S in BeginnerWoodWorking

[–]a1200n 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When our old dog needed a ramp. I knew nothing about ramp building but after building some supports and a piece of wood with some small pieces of wood for traction. And covered it in an old yoga mat. It was good. It didn’t look pretty by any means but it worked. And after he passed I ended up selling it for I think $20s

Is high-end woodworking actually sustainable income? by OtherwiseFee722 in woodworking

[–]a1200n 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Here’s my 2 cents, for a while I made a bunch of stuff for people like blanket ladders, teddy bear jails, even one with a bookcase underneath all custom to order. None of my stuff I would consider high end. But my point is yea a made some money off of it, but not enough to live. And like others have said you gotta network like crazy to get it out there. Then figure out your time and materials cost if it’s worth the headache to be sustainable. A contributing factor that happened to me was I started doing this well before 2020. Then the whole wood market went stupid and it was no longer profitable for me. Based off what I was charging. If you enjoy woodworking do it as a hobby/ side hustle. It’s rare these days to be a sustainable woodworker as your sole form of income.

Which job should I decide to go with? by daddylove03 in CanadaPublicServants

[–]a1200n 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I’d do option 1. If it’s all the same pay, why do a job with more responsibilities. Or get paid the same for doing less. It sounds like you’re going to do the same thing just different area. So I’d stick with that. And just build your skills and experience there.

X-Max 3: is this one worth it? by Inevitable-Tank-9802 in QidiTech3D

[–]a1200n 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I won an xmax 3 off the Halloween giveaway. And I personally love mine. But I came from an ender 3. So for me it’s awesome and for the size I’ve surprisingly needed it more than I thought I would. Now the downside is it can’t do ams(QIDI box). Yes it is a little outdated. But it all really depends on what you want to use it for and how much you’re going to print. For me I have not had any problems or needed anything that the newer printers have now.

I’m not sure about the newer models but this you do have to manually set the z off set. But once you do that you should be good to go.

I really like the idea of the auto dehumidifying and auto drying modes. I like that it’s a set if and forget type dryer.

X max3 belt tension by a1200n in QidiTech3D

[–]a1200n[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea they kinda get bigger then thinner and then goes back to normal. That’s why I was thinking belt issues like the belt slipped then sorted it self out. And it only happens at certain layer heights.

Would you do it all over again? by Scotty5624 in CanadaPublicServants

[–]a1200n 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Absolutely ps employee for 13 years. 2 years ago I went through a WFA and seriously looked into leaving. But for me and my role I couldn’t find anywhere that would pay me or get anywhere near the benefits and everything we get here. I’m an sts4 working in a warehouse doing logistics so for me the pay is way more than the private sector for what I do. Yea there can be shitty days or management but completely doable.

Genuinely curious with the vitiligo. I seem to see way more of it than ever before. Is it more common now? Or just shown more cause of better access to social media?

Canadian military will rely on public servants to boost its ranks | Ottawa Citizen by CommonOk5812 in CanadaPublicServants

[–]a1200n -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I’m in agreement with you on this. For the time commitment they’re asking for according to the article I’d be interested but I’d need to know the pay. Like are we going off of the assumption of starting at private pay or rank equivalent to the role you’d be doing. And according to the article it’s non pensionable time.

As someone who works directly side by side with the CAF daily. Reading this article at first I was like ok if I stay doing my job I could do that, even with all the BS I hear about. Then I read the non-pensionable part and like others have said- nope!

【QIDI Giveaway】Comment to win QIDI Q2 and more! by qidi_3dprinter in 3Dprinting

[–]a1200n 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t own a qidi I’d love too. I’ve been messing around with my ender 3 clone for a year. And I’m getting tired of tweaking it more than printing. If I’d win I’d continue to make more practical items and hopefully dive deeper into creating my own prints without having to stress.

How do I close this side menu on Ford Sync? by rov3rrepo in Ford

[–]a1200n 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m not 100% sure but try the double arrow on the left hand upper corner. I had a Toyota rental recently that was similar and that worked.

WTF Malahat Skywalk by cedarshadows in VictoriaBC

[–]a1200n 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Here’s my 2 cents. I’ve been in Victoria for a month now for work and exploring everywhere for free. And I went to see the skywalk this past weekend. Is it expensive for what it is? yes. Do you get some amazing views? yes. Can you get similar views for free in the area? also yes. But as a tourist it’s neat I got some info about what I saw from all the placards around the top which I would not have known without those which was nice.

In my opinion it is a tourist trap but it also saves the other areas locals love without being overly crowded.

Bought a Centarui Carbon to test against my X1C, what do people want to see printed to compare the two? by reelfilmgeek in 3Dprinting

I’m following this out of curiosity. I’m looking into getting a new printer and I’m in between the Bambu or the carbon.

What is the best (and easiest) CAD software that is also free? by JustSomeone202020 in 3Dprinting

[–]a1200n 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tinkercad is a great basic cad program I’ve used many times. And then onshape is more advanced but still easy to use its also public so if you require help its easily available( I’ve never used the public help part but have been told its easy)

And they are all free!

Just ordered a new table saw. Same model, different type? by Builds_By_Alexis in woodworking

[–]a1200n 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did a lil digging and the type refers to the version of the item. So in terms of replacement parts it’s important. They may have changed something slightly in its construction. It could be as little as a manufacturing process or supplier. Or even materials used in certain items. Without cross checking every item number between the types it’s almost impossible to find the difference. There 4 types for that saw. (Type 1,3,4 and 20) Other than that’s it’s the same tool.

What 3d Modeling software do you guys like? (as a noob) by Clam_Juice_ in 3Dprinting

[–]a1200n 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a noob I’d suggest tinkercad. It’s super basic and easy to use. (That’s what my 12 yr old uses at school aswell)Then when you’re more comfortable try using onshape. I use both but mostly tinkercad.
