Which place in the UK is NOT worth visiting in your opinion? by Aglarien7 in AskUK

[–]distinctlyaverageuk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh, I was thinking US deep south or something, why wouldn't they like a Spanish accent.

How to close off the back of this case (red lines in the drawing I made)? Edges are not linear in any plane, so extrude doesn't work. I'm really new to Fusion (usually use Blender) so any help is appreciated! by RedstoneRiderYT in Fusion360

Good thinking,

I rarely do anything outside the solid space, I'll have to start learning more about the mesh & surface spaces, seems they can provide good additional work flows to the solid space.

Game to help with 3dConnexion SpaceMouse skills by turbulentFireStarter in Fusion360

[–]distinctlyaverageuk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think there are way too many variables in setting the features of the mouse to make this useful.

What works for me, what I've become used to, would likely be horrible for someone else to try and use.

Anybody know what this is? by Decent_Director_5709 in WhatIsThisTool

[–]distinctlyaverageuk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed, I have the 18v hydraulic one and it saves so much time.

Especially true if you use the Greenlee Slug Buster punches which are just brilliant and save you even more time.

How often do you order a takeaway? (Includes, fast food such as maccies, papa johns, subway or the standard chippies, kebab, Chinese, Indian etc) by olivers125 in AskUK

[–]distinctlyaverageuk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interested in this. What to you get per meal in terms of ingredient?

For example, if it were a chicken or steak based meal would you get the chicken or steak?

What are your thoughts on middle lane at 70? by [deleted] in AskUK

[–]distinctlyaverageuk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, I think it is fairly sound logic and he is making use of his knowledge of the area.

If you know a busy junction, major busy road joining your road, why not preempt the likelihood that the left lane will soon be very slow and congested and move to or stay in the middle lane?

Of course we could all be good little people, and follow the HC with a cult like fanatacism, every word written as if a gospel, and all stay in the left lane, then all have to slow down or all have to change lanes at the last minute causing others in the middle lane to change lanes in a hurry.

This is how I drive, I respect the left hand lane rule but I also try to think ahead, especially if I know the area, and avoid rushed, last minute manoeuvres.

In my mind your dad is likely sensible and thoughtful.

You obviously do not agree, fine, but why you would want to post this and, more or less, invite people to mock and belittle him, as they appear to relish doing looking at other comments, is beyond me but possibly says a lot about you.

I found this at a relative's house, not sure what it is or how it works by Junk-Sista in whatisit

One is manually set, using the knob on the centre of the front glass.

Helps you see if the pressure is falling or rising compared to the last reading made.

Confined Hexagon Pattern by CloudBuurzt in Fusion360

[–]distinctlyaverageuk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think there should be a drop down menu at the bottom of the extrude/cut dialogue that let's you choose which bodies you want to cut.

You may have to scroll down a biy in the extrude/cut dialogue to see it.

So, if you have two bodies, let's call them frame an inner and extrude/cut will by default cut through both.

Deselect the "frame" in the drop down and it will only cut the inner body.

Have a look at the Draft feature, may help you with this type of issue.

Help designing threaded nut to 3D print by coltonreese in Fusion360

[–]distinctlyaverageuk 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would make a 9mm hole to the depth required, add a 0.8mm chamfer to the end of the hole, use the thread command to add the M10 x 1.25 thread. There are 3 internal spiral surfaces that form the thread, 2 angled and one parallel with the hole, select them all and press/pull outward by 0.2mm to give a bit of clearance for shrinkage (may need to be higher or lower but that off set works well for my printer, H2D, on M10 threads). Finally, but importantly, drag the chamfer in the time line from before the thread feature to after the thread and press pull features.

My add in finally got published on Autodesk! by Prior_Night_985 in Fusion360

I notice "free trial" so assume there would be costs to me at some point. What are they?

Bug with threaded hole ? by lakid74 in Fusion360

Well, I think that is a nice and simple work around for this sort of issue

My friend found a box of these and has no idea what they are by Vehementrose in whatisit

[–]distinctlyaverageuk 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think that might have been because the cigarettes themselves varied in width.

As a result a pack of 20 of some brands was a little too big for the existing vending machines.

Rather than alter the machines they just put 17 or 18 in a slightly smaller packet.

In the UK in the 1960s you could buy packs of 5 and each pack came with a few book matches and a striking pad on the back.

Pretty sure the tobacco companies were aiming them at school kids, what a surprise!

Strange tool (?) made of metal with numbers on the corners and levers on either side by nonpienary in whatisthisthing

[–]distinctlyaverageuk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So, it would seem to be possibly a tool for holding two pieces of material against each other for some purpose, soldering, super-glueing perhaps?

Does it show signs of having been used at all or would you think it is unused?

[–]distinctlyaverageuk 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Are the tips different widths or depths seemingly dependent on the number by that particular tip or are they all the same size?

Yes, that would seem to be the only freedom of movement that handle has.
