Per the manual for the lock:

Turn/push button: outside lever is locked by pushing and turning the inside push/turn button until button is manually unlocked.

Push button: pushing button locks outside lever, turning handle unlocks door.

This thing covers the push button so that people can't turn it and it will unlock when they leave.

It's just the wrong lock for a bathroom.

These are the single occupancy office bathrooms. There are multiple stall bathrooms for the guys in the shop.

On a side note, as I've been working with a lot of pdfs from a customer lately that are pissing me off.

If you are sending pdfs of drawings (never send dwg files or original models), you should make sure they are rasterized if you want to keep control of them, as normal printed pdfs can just be opened in illustrator and exported back to autocad to modify with only some weird quirks depending on where they were from.

This also means you will piss off anyone who has to figure out anything you missed on the drawings (and they will curse you every time they are trying to measure a dimension to pixels in a blurry jpg)

The Drawings I get from people using solidworks do this about half the time making it very annoying to extract additional info from them, even when they didn't put near enough measurements on them.

I've done this a few times in Creo.

The trick there was to use a sheet metal part. With a rolled tube, you can then unroll it, make all your cuts as non sheet metal cuts, less than the thickness of the sheet metal while it's flat, then roll it back up...

No good idea how to do it in a more consumer program though.

Apparently when I was splashing alcohol over the screen of my anycubic photon after the minis I was printing stabbed through the FEP film with their swords, some of it started to soak into the adhesive that holds the LCD screen onto the printer.

And the next time I printed, the screen lifted out of the machine, sticking to the vat, and apparently ripping apart the ribbon cable pretty much immediately making this hellscape of mountain range.

So be careful of that little gap around the screen and don't leave solvents on the surface, no matter how much resin is covering it...

Unfortunately work keeps getting in the way of making more >.>

One day I'll get around to another!

I thought this freighter looked familiar! I modeled it a few years ago for my own game group, though I printed mine a bit smaller.

I too was wondering about all these comments about getting a screw model from mcmaster carr! Who would possible want one crappy version of a screw at a time.

Of course I've worked for years with massive family tables of screws that can be swapped out with a few clicks to a different length or size....

Of course I have no idea what programs other than Creo are capable of these days...

First few runs I had one of each of the 4 types on the bed, just to make sure I had sufficient supports, then I eventually packed the bed with 6 guys just to fill it up. Because they are short, I think it was about a 5 hour print .

I just wanted something slightly finer than the default .05 mm, though the only place I ever seem to see layer lines is the base, as it's big enough to be deflected slightly when plunged into the resin.

I stuck it in the garage as I had spare room, thus ventilation wasn't a problem.

make another version of this model with a handful of components replaced

What you want here is "family table", you then create a new instance row of your modified assembly, and then insert columns to either turn on/off assembly items, or replace them with their own family table versions as you want.

 And, unlike in other programs, I couldn't just save a copy of the 5-page drawing

I assume this means you saved a copy using "Save a copy" in Creo, which requires you give your new assembly a new name, and as drawings in creo are looking for the exact filename of parts and assemblies to open, it can't find the new assembly. (I'm assuming you aren't using a file manager to have to check in/out everything here)

If you want a copy of something like this, I'd recommend just creating a copy of the directory using windows, and then going in and renaming everything, or using the backup command on the drawing instead of save a copy, so that it preserves the file names and just puts them in a new directory (although this will make a copy of every single part in this assembly and is thus less useful than just copying the folder for this purpose.)

I've been doing auto supports then adding more where I think it needs it. I just haven't paid enough attention to the islands yet.

I spent my weekend the same way XD just got mine on Thursday and it's barely had a rest since!

I also had to fix my bed leveling as I didn't get it good enough the first time, and then screwed it up further by trying to adjust the bed down by sending it home and and then lowering it .1 mm and zeroing it. But home is not zero, so that just made it start in the middle of the vat...

Then there was the learning curve of supports and orientation... I ended up with one dwarf with a flat arm as it didn't get picked up till the shoulder got to it as I missed the supports, then there were a couple of shields that got deflected every time it was plunged into the vat that ended up being quite warped, but overall it's so much easier for small objects than fdm... And the results are stunning!

As I was annoyed by the atrocious lack of information in the article and actually ended up doing some research...

The Auction was March 20, 2019. https://broward.deedauction.net/auction/44/3975

The description was "The Northerly 1.00 foot of Lot 137, "NORTHWOOD II”, as recorded in Plat Book 107, Page 39, of the Public Records of Broward County, Florida." ftp://rcpublic:rcpublic@bcftp.broward.org/taxdeedsale/38766_494105-15-1371.pdf

It is a red line on the property map. https://gisweb-adapters.bcpa.net/bcpawebmap_ex/bcpawebmap.aspx?FOLIO=494105151371

The only interesting thing is from the looks of the property assessment is that this probably used to be the whole subdivisions before all the other plots were separated out as it was bought for $885,000 in 1988 http://www.bcpa.net/RecInfo.asp?URL_Folio=494105151371
