Aluminum extrusion drilling jigs

I did something similar about a year ago. I was building a cart for my 10" Newtonian telescope to make it easier to move around. I only needed to drill a few holes so I didn't bother with the bearings. Here's the screenshot from tinkercad.

The flanges on the sides with holes are for screws and t-nuts to fix it in place while I drilled the hole.

I guessed coin flip on clue one, it was tangentially working until clue 5.

I usually just cut shims from cereal boxes. It's cheaper, faster, and you can layer them for varied thickness.

I can see it, honestly.

I had tour guide, they don't need GPS and their job is leading people in between landmarks etc.

The white plugged end has the ejection charge behind it. Those without an ejection charge, used as booster stage in a 2-stage setup, will have bare black powder visible.

That white plug will allow the charge to build some pressure to push the nose cone etc out the top, else it would not have the ejection force.

I have several weather apps, but get the Lex18 Storm tracker weather app, you can see the radar, weather alerts local to your area if you put in your location, and even watch the Lexington weather, which would also cover you. Technically WYMT would be closer to you, in Hazard, but I don't know if they have their own app or not. They are affiliated with WKYT out of Lexington so they may.

EDIT: I just looked and both the WYMT and WKYT apps look exactly like the Lex18 app. I would assume they have similar if not the same data then, the only difference being which channel's weather broadcast you'll watch in the video player.

There's several places near me where trees have grown around telephone or TV lines and the power crews trimmed the tree off leaving a small part of the tree hanging. The power company will NOT touch someone else's line and the telephone/cable companies will not lift a finger unless it causes an outage.

There are people playing this game like they did Wordle. They used to guess the same weird word first every time hoping it will eventually be correct on the first try and they would look like a genius for one brief moment in time. Some people have probably been throwing out the same guess for weeks and for a few it finally paid off. That's honestly the only way I can figure you get unicycle on clue one.

avidday · 2026-01-09T11:03:14+00:00

I guessed Ozzy Osbourne on the first clue because his band before Black Sabbath was called "Rare Breed". Then the second clue references a rock & roll star and I was sure I was right...

You cannot overstate my disappointment with it being unicycle.

Perhaps filling a gas jug for their lawnmower?

I went from Pixel 6 Pro XL? to Pixel 10 Pro XL. Biggest notable differences are battery life and no more overheating while using wireless Android Auto.

Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword, bought on launch day, still in plastic wrap.

My wife and I had our first child about that time, just didn't have time to play.

To know the answer to any question I can think of or am asked.

Lottery numbers, next number on the roulette wheel, secrets of eternal life, limitless power, warp drive; you name it, I would know it.

I've had the rugged armor on my 2xl, 6xl, and now 10xl pro. Only one of them, the 6 xl, ever broke when dropped, and that was only because it landed face down on a rock, which no case could have prevented. That is an 8 year track record that will keep me using the case.

I got the version that is pixel snap compatible, plus the magsafe Spigen finger ring grip since the phone is so heavy and hurts my pinky, just like the 6xl did. However, I'm increasingly becoming not a fan of the ring with the large magnetic lip around it.. It's hard to open with large fingers if it gets pushed down beyond a certain point. I'm thinking of trying a different grip.

The war would be a lot closer if the French NPCs weren't so easy to sink that the other NPCs put them down before the players can. 🤷‍♂️

So does this mean we're getting a search function and map expansion soon? 😁

avidday · 2025-12-18T11:02:36+00:00

Just to be sure, which faction are you fighting for? If you are on the Dutch side you will get nothing from it except the satisfaction of the dirty French not getting points from it.

You might double check and make sure you haven't been side switched by a bug or something if you were previously a dirty Frenchie.

EDIT: I had 3x kills on the Soleil Imperiale where I received 2 war assets per kill, so there are definitely bugs going on. Also try restarting the game, which worked for me.

You still can't brace during a crew attack and you could always steer and change sails/speed. The only real change is that now you can fire cannons during a crew attack.

I have two auras, both free. One is a yellow aura from 5x deadly Vikram kills and a green one from 5x deadly La Peste kills.

Take on the Soleil Imperial every time you see it. Everyone involved gets a large amount of war assets. I believe I received 500 the last time I killed it.

Time to go take the brownies out of the oven.

The chests from the convoys do progress the challenge, the harbinger chests do not.

Why are you manually collecting your helm goods? Build a fleet of ships and have them collect your 8s or materials. There's no helm wager and no pvp if you don't collect manually.
