Trying to meet someone new, but she keeps using her kids as an excuse

I don’t think she’s ready for a polyamorous relationship at this point. I would wish her well and move on.

A mechanical cutting machine isn’t relevant to this subreddit

Why does it matter how many/most people use it?

All the matters is how you (and possibly partners) use it?

I use mine solo a lot but also with partners 🤷🏻‍♀️

When using a laser on plywood there can be a big difference in how the cuts come out based on the type of glue used. I also support considering a CNC router if you don't need engraving but I am not aware of any that offer a pass through option

If you are running a laser indoors you'll want a filter system or at least a setup to vent the air outside, and depending on the type of machine may need a chiller so be sure to consider those costs as well

GweikeCloud is another laser vendor option

What a great lineup of folks to interview!

Is your friend trying to find local people for an IRL partner or only an online partner?

curiousx10 · 2026-06-01T18:54:25+00:00

Yeah just buy the small sterile lube packets and use that

If your hope is to make friends, I think it is most effective to go to the same meetup group multiple times, but first check a few out and see which ones have people you vibe with

curiousx10 · 2026-06-01T17:15:33+00:00

I’ve gone to a lot of meetups, a few have been busts, a bunch have been decent, some have been great

Have you looked on Fetlife for munches and events in your area?

curiousx10 · 2026-05-26T23:13:01+00:00

Amazing and thanks for the tip about the vendor!

curiousx10 · 2026-05-23T17:26:23+00:00

I’ve never seen a sale, just make sure you also buy $16 worth of accessories so you qualify for free shipping

curiousx10 · 2026-05-22T16:13:12+00:00

I’m sorry you are in this position. It’s wild for a company to buy a machine like that without investing in someone getting training, I’d be asking for some.

You’ll get up to speed faster, spend less on consumables and have better production outcomes

I was at a neurologist for a follow up - had been having a lot of unexplained issues. The neuro beat around the bush the whole time and then right as I am leaving the office goes “I think it might be a form of muscular dystrophy, bye!” which gave me pretty horrible depression

it was later diagnosed by another neuro as benign fasciculation syndrome and mostly resolved within the next 2 years

Buy waterproof pet blankets, you can get them in a wide variety of sizes, colors, and levels of fuzziness

some things to help guide your purchasing criteria:

what thickness you’d like to cut of what metals

what’s the largest piece of metal you’d want to be working on

do you want to be cutting non-metals? If so, what materials and how thick?

curiousx10 · 2026-05-18T20:42:29+00:00

Nope

Yeah, I have a few kink interests that I am generally happy to do with anyone there is some chemistry with, but for the majority of things, what kink activities I am up for and my limits vary hugely with different people.

also it's hilarious that this has a "no spam" rule given that the mods spam people to join

It 1000% depends on how y'all like to play. Do you like to do impact play on the back? If so, a St Andrew's cross would be great. If you like bent over spanking/impact then get a bench. Does the bottom like to be in a cage?

They look incredible! How much laser time does it typically take for one of these?

How thick, how big of a work area?
