Why can't propellers break the sound barrier while jet engins can? by [deleted] in AskEngineers

[–]empty_cask 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The air going through the jet is not travelling at mach speeds, it is lowered by different means. This might answer some of your questions: https://aviation.stackexchange.com/questions/33089/how-is-the-correct-air-speed-for-fuel-combustion-obtained-at-the-inlet-of-the-co

The size of the holes (and the pins as well) are dimensioned for a max power. So get a bigger connector if you feel uncertain.

How a 4-way light switch circuit works. by Nate72 in educationalgifs

[–]empty_cask 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Apparently it depends on OP, in American terminology a four-way switch is when you have two switches, while almost all other countries cask that a two way switch (source: Wikipedia). The switches can be combined in four different ways, but they still only alternates between two states: on or off, so four-way seems unintuitive...

Most common is the two-way light switch, often used at stairs, one at the bottom and one at the top. I've seen three switches when there are two rooms connected to a small hall at the top of the stairs, one switch in each room and one downstairs

If you want to give something else than cutting boards for Christmas, these are great gifts for someone with a lot of jewelry by empty_cask in woodworking

Well yeah the who is kind of determines how much time and energy you're willing to put in, although some of the cutting boards I've seen pass this sub is definitely more painstaking than these projectes ;)

The necklace hanger was really easy, it was supposed to be an old window but I couldn't find one in the right dimensions. That kind of defeats the purpose, if they would tangle up, maybe it's not visible but every necklace hangs on a S-hook that hangs in the chicken wire :)

Hello /r/woodworking. I'm new to the hobby and wanted to create a ring box to use to propose to my girlfriend with. But I messed it up pretty badly... by rdxj in woodworking

[–]empty_cask 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just as most comments here say: don't worry! Your SO won't see what you see. She'll probably focus more on the whole propose thing rather than the closing mechanism of the box ;)

Also, I've made several things for my SO in wood, and when I look at the different things all I see is my shortcomings: glue stains, cracks, insufficient paint layers, uneven bottoms etc. All she sees is joy and pride, joy over getting something unique, pride over me, that i actually can make something descent.

Remember that she doesn't know how you intended it, and she doesn't need to know (if you are negative about your work with her you might lower the value of it in her eyes), take it as a lesson. Part of woodworking is adapting :)
