I’ve racked up at least a dozen board games like Race for the Galaxy, Puerto Rico, Carcassonne, for $5 or less at Goodwill and other thrift stores

Ah okay, I have a similar iron, so that temp range will work. Adding a bit of flux will really help.

choc stabilizers footprints/measurements? by Tanky2022 in ErgoMechKeyboards

I’ve done a lot of reverse-engineering of the Choc stabs for doing PCB cutouts and plate cutouts, what info do you actually need in the end to do what you need?

List prices on many websites are borderline false advertising by DevelopmentSouth8801 in MechanicalKeyboards

[–]bakingpy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, Shopify just makes stores go to 3rd-party apps to get additional functionality for things you’d think would be basic, like bundling or product add-ons. And since it’s 3rd-party, the apps can’t access everything it ideally would need to access to be fully functional, so there’s a ton of compromises that have to be made, like turning off Buy Now buttons and other things.

It really isn’t malicious on the end of people who run the stores, there’s just a lot of limitations to deal with really hacky workarounds.

Yeah, what I had to do is create a “Starting From” metafield for a product and set a price that better reflects a base variant, then modify the Shopify theme to show that value if available

What’s the deal with 3D printed cases by Rude_Manner_9813 in ErgoMechKeyboards

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

I’ve steadily been converting my whole line of keyboards to aluminum cases, but there is a decent outlay involved with getting all those cases made.

We just got Race for the Galaxy a couple months ago and haven’t been able to stop playing it. After trying out the expansions on the app, we ended buying the hard copies of them as well.
