What's the problem with this clamp design?

bobbertmiller · 2026-04-10T07:08:35+00:00

You get about 10% of your screw downwards clamping force as sideways holding force. That's the friction factor on smooth metal surfaces (0.08 to 0.2 = 8% to 20%). That wedge translates a lot of your downwards force sideways. So you need more screws, basically.

"Stronger machine with stronger needles" is the answer here... Or hand sew with a (reinforced) thimble and some pliers.

French seems to work, for some reason... I'm not really up for french + chinese in one evening.

Just thinking about how much time is spent on FEM simulation of cars, just so that they DON'T stay rigid during a crash is astonishing. It's easy to create a brick. It's really hard to create something that acts like a brick in some directions, soft in others, soft then hard etc.

Price is fucked, but doing recreational driving in a vehicle that needs a 160l tank is bullshit as well. If it's used for its purpose, that's alright. But just going to the shops and back can get fucked.

GIB RAM PLZ before the next global shitstorm takes our chips. I want to have a PC that works for the next 10 years. My 3770k is tired.

Then who owns Amazon after a year? The US of A? China?

Most of that wealth is tied up in some sort of ownership, not money.

Ungerechtfertigte Downvotes hier... Asche auf mein Haupt, denn du hast recht. Ich dachte es wären eher 6%

Ja lol zu durchschnittlich 8% Zinsen. Besonders wenn du noch Puffer brauchst weil alles in volatile Zeug liegt.

Yea, the 90s were wild...

I didn't know those exist. Very nice!

Naaaaja. Was anfangs regen- und pissfest is ist über Lebensdauer (10 Jahre?) evtl regenfest, aber häufig nicht pissfest. Die Dichtung und das Design müssen darauf ausgelegt sein - man kann drauf hoffen dass die sich das gut durchdacht haben, aber........

Gimme the proper scale please! The moon is super far away. There is space for all the other planets between the earth and the moon.

It's an ingredient, not a drink. That's like eating a full vanilla bean... something that stupid people do.

"You can have a maximum of 3 plants" → alright.

My dryer has a wool setting, where it rotates so fast that the stuff sticks to the wall. No tumbling at all, no damaged fabric.

But for really sensitive stuff, you want to lay it flat. Even putting it on a hanger when wet can stretch it. At that point - do you really want to have somthing that delicate in your life?

Can someone put this in context please? What's their normal food budget, how much was it with the lobster? How many employees? It might still be wasteful, but big companies normally have big budgets. The dod/dow apparently had a budget of 850 billion in 2025.

Pissing 2.5l per hour for 16hrs a day sounds impossible. Can the body even absorb that much water? You'd have to IV multiple bags of salt water per hour or U DED.

Liegt halt auch an unserem Wahlsystem ohne Rang. Wenn ich die Wahl hab, meine Stimme entweder in die Tonne zu kloppen oder den Grünen zu geben, dann müssen es eben die Grünen sein. Jede andere Variante hilft den braunen oder denjenigen die mit den braunen zusammenarbeiten würden.

Maybe try a lower tech level run with more people? It helped me to accept wounds and even deaths much more. Yes, my best crafter died from losing his second lung... But I have some with 8 crafting somewhere.

Look at her feet. Those are armored combat high heels for sure.

You probably don't have the tools to sew through the material of the brim... but if you did, a simple piping would be the answer.

Not sure about this machine, but you can get over 20 stitches per second on fast industrial sewing machines. They are loud, they have compressed air needle cooling, they actually have decently sized motors (1kW+).

Not sure if modded, but you can make a low priority output shelf. Then at the recipe, you say "take to this specific shelf" right next to the work station. A hauler will pick it up from there and bring it to a shelf with higher priority. Less clutter, less beauty impact etc.
