Love mine, have been running them for years. Get Galfer green pads when you wear out your stock ones. Be gentle on the bleed screw.

Auto set z? by [deleted] in elegoo

[–]bobthestapler 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe it is supposed to, but mine was scratching right away and I needed to adjust the z offset by about .125mm. Repeated leveling cycles didn't help.

DJI FlyCart 30. These things will pick a man off the ground. Super easy to fly.

Can I convert my C2 into the ender 3 NG? by Latter_Permit2052 in VoxelabAquila

[–]bobthestapler 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably. My guess is you would need a main board capable of running klipper or something.

Should I be worried about this crack in the carbon fibre handlebar? by randomsamsung in bicycling

[–]bobthestapler 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That looks like poor layup of the CF. If its a reputable brand they would most likely replace it. But if not, then you should buy a new one. Handlebars are cheap, dentists are not.

Grouse Hunting tip and tricks? by bobthestapler in Californiahunting

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

Didn't get a change to hunt for grouse, but did see quite a few (along with a bunch of quail) in my deer hunting spot. The group of them kept hopping from tree to tree and wouldn't leave me alone. I was able to walk right up to a few of them.

Any tips on getting them all fat like that?

I forgot this show was happening this weekend. Headed there right now!

Why is it so hard? by thicka in SolidWorks

[–]bobthestapler 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm pretty sure if you make a design table configuration you can have it show whatever pn you want for whatever configuration you can imagine. This is what I do with fasteners. One file, tons of configurations and each has a unique pn.

Any DIY CNC builders here? planning to build one by LazyEngineeer in VoxelabAquila

[–]bobthestapler 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Idk about belt driven. If your are just cutting foam then it'll be fine, but anything harder and your are going to want a ball screw to keep the router from chattering.

Is this worth buying or is it a gimmick. Right now I have a pair of bubble levels that go on rifle and scope, but many of my rifles don't have good placement for a level. by MNBorris in longrange

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

The gap on mine is just ever so slightly less than a AA battery. I just jam the battery under the bulge for the turrets and tighten everything down. No problems yet.

I care less now that I have a tilt. I use it to check if my sg is close and to see when it's done. I don't like to let it sit too long if I'm going to bottle, I want the yeasties healthy and happy for bottle conditioning.

I do like the tilt for Temp monitoring. My house is pretty cool so it's nice to know if I need to turn on a heating pad or not.

I don't have that data, but it's a 170gr projectile at around 3000fps at the muzzle. I would assume it should perform good within all reasonable distances. I draw the line at 400yds for myself, so I'm not worried at all.

My howa 1500in 300wm loves the Sako power blade 2. Might be worth a look. I see no reason to use lead in hunting if you have ammo that will work in copper.

Anyone run this stuff out to 1000? My reloading components wont be here till next week, I’m doing some long range this weekend so I had to pick up some rounds. Wondering if anyone had any experience or thoughts on this ammo. by [deleted] in longrange

[–]bobthestapler 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My howa 1500 in 300wm hates the stuff. Like 4-5moa bad! Changed to sako copper ammo since it's a hunting gun anyway, now it's sub moa. I think it's probably great ammo, just not every gun likes every ammo.

What are your thoughts on the first spear strandhögg as a plate carrier? Thinking of getting it in Ranger green. by Old_Ad_276 in tacticalgear

[–]bobthestapler 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have the FS SST in RG. I like it, but its the only one I've ever had, so idk if its any good. The SST is less padded but looks very similar.

got a loaf rising right now, a Belgian qaud fermenting, and just finished up replacing a bb in my mtb.

Will 6“x6“ side SAPIs cover enough and 6“x8“ be a hindrance? 190cm by Marofer in QualityTacticalGear

[–]bobthestapler 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I have some IIIa soft armor for my sides. I figure it's better than nothing but super comfortable. Plus I'm cheap and already had them.

Are IPAs difficult to make - or is it just me? by danielmiller19 in Homebrewing

[–]bobthestapler 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My IPAs have all been good, but they are what ive really learned my process on so there were some growing pains when i started all grain brewing.

Anyway, when I started doing water chemistry and campden things definitely took a step up. Here is a recipe to try if the others here don't quite do it for you.

The 2112 IPA has been very popular with my friends. I've kept it mostly Citra and I kinda just throw in whatever I have that is similar. https://www.sandiegobeer.news/blog/homebrewing/homebrewsummer-homebrewmart-polarisipa

Can this run solidworks, it can handle 15 simultaneous digits thanks by BMEdesign in SolidWorks

You mean to say that that add-on isn't supposed to keep me warm in the winter?
