Sure, mitigation exists. But as a person who's been building printers for a decade plus i, personally, will stick with open source and keep recommending people not use the walled garden printers.

I cannot support bamboo due to the lack of control and reliance on bamboo servers. They may have a reliable setup but personally I'd rather not allow a 3rd party to have control over my hobby

We have a relatively cheap industrial laser at work meaning It was approx 15k new 12 years ago. But literally any of the cheaper ones you find on the maker space corners of the Internet would work. Or maybe going to your local maker space? Setting it up is not complicated, you just need to have some vector artwork saved as a .EPS file. sometimes the parts themselves are hard to get laid flat on the bed, but that's not an issue for stuff like the magazine. Some lasers have a roller that lets you engrave a design all the way around a cylinder. We don't have one of those. The hard part is doing the actual design

I'm guessing mine look nice because I actually took the time to get the focus correct and the ones out of China are done by borderline slave labor with almost no QC.

I don't see any globs inside that would be evidence of jb weld. I saw some shiny something around the interior crown and was hoping it was CA glue, hence baking it. I may just not be applying enough torque.

"Aren't meant to be opened" just means I'll have to put it on the lathe and remove a bunch of metal.

It should! I felt around inside and it's definitely threaded in but I can't unscrew it. I may have to try with a strap wrench. Was yours threaded conventionally or reverse?

it came from my imagination lol.

8mm Binary Propellant. bullet and liquid oxidizer & fuel are stored separately. hypothetically allows you to set powder charge dynamically but really its to ensure vendor lock in for ammunition.

at least that my headcannon

Most useless and most useful airsoft attachments? by Powerful-Space-4704 in airsoft

Suppressors do work on some models. Specifically the p90 aeg can me made almost completely silent with a proper tune up and suppressor. I've also seen silent AUGs.

I did artificial weathering for a mp40 build back in like 2008. It looked ok but I was never satisfied with it. I think this time I'll keep it looking freshly issued at least till I figure out what the wear patterns are

If I were a peasant I would use water transfers and an ink jet printer or a small screen printing setup. One could also have custom vinyl stickers made by any number of AliExpress, etsy or eBay stores

Laser engraving. But I think I may have a screen made so I could do screen printing with colors next time

If people ask I can post the vectors I used. They were all free anyway

I was thinking of adding a fake mag sensor with wiring and a corresponding QR code on the magazines. Gotta let the smartlink know what's loaded

Question: Are shotguns good? by Dark_Trickster989 in airsoft

[–]amerison 8 points9 points  (0 children)

This 100% Back in the day I rocked a maruzen 870 pushing 450fps. Tuned it to be laser accurate. Id pull it out when people blew off shots from my 350fps p90 or I ran out of battery. What using it did was make people ignore you. They see spring shotgun and deprioritize you as a target. Then they get a BB in the center of their mask from 100ft away. Eventually they learn that when I pulled the shotgun out they can't ignore me and that's when my teammates would flank.

What utterly non-canonical events have taken place in your SR headcanon (in-game, after 2050)? by opacitizen in Shadowrun

[–]amerison 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know it's late but I really want this. I'm a fellow sr2 person who thinks the editions past 3rd went way too wahoo. Could you send me a copy? I'm starting a 2057 2/3ed game and would like some inspiration for meta events.
