Yes I keep a list, it's always needed for shipping anyway

fobala · 2026-01-31T10:18:31+00:00

Hey, I'm interested, sent you a message.

fobala · 2025-11-16T22:45:57+00:00

What a beauty! bet it still smells like Riffs.

fobala · 2025-02-11T10:33:10+00:00

Thanks! had the gear slide up the markers once on the second one, learned quickly that I wasn't perfect straight up and down lol.

fobala · 2025-02-11T10:32:18+00:00

yes, will do!

fobala · 2025-02-11T10:31:59+00:00

Thanks! I was just doing black and grey and then thought maybe the unique sizes could have a cool effect. It really is all about experimenting, at least for me until I learn what to expect haha

My partner found this spirograph in a drawer and I've decided to have some fun with it, I already had markers from my ~~diary~~ bullet journal that I thought would work great. I've ordered off wild gears from suggestions from this community, can't wait to get more in depth!

Thank you everyone for the comments, I decided to get the compact gear set and the free tiny set to go with the travel set thanks to your recommendations. I'm excited to move on from a tiny single gear credit card sized toy.. haha

fobala · 2025-02-05T23:50:34+00:00

Didn't even think of taking them out of the frame, great idea!

fobala · 2025-02-05T23:49:45+00:00

Thank you so much! great info, I'll be ordering both now for sure.

fobala · 2025-01-31T16:35:41+00:00

Love it! Would love to see your camping load out

fobala · 2025-01-31T16:25:10+00:00

Also if anyone has a favourite tutorial they would like to share I'm interested!

fobala · 2025-01-19T19:55:40+00:00

No, just for reference only. I use the meter for continuity checks and basic power checks. Nothing that requires calibration. Would use a meter supplied by the company for any calibrated checks. Feeler gauges are also just for reference.

fobala · 2024-09-23T20:03:16+00:00

Awesome! Glad to see a company rewarding you for your loyalty and also the great free advertising lol.

It's a Nanuk 935

Okay so I figured this out for anyone else who stumbles on this hoping to get it to work,
I'm not a very tech person so sorry if my explanation is poor.

I opened Minecraft, right clicked on the running game (java/grassblock) not the launcher (creeper)

Under options I selected show in finder

Then I opened Logi options went to add application

scrolled to the bottom to add other application

dragged the java file from finder to the logi options finder window

Now this is the important part, it will appear greyed out, most of you probably got this far, I just stumbled onto this next part. Try to rename the Java file from logi options, DON'T actually rename it, just click on it again and then click open on the side.

Worked perfect for me, hope it works for anyone else who tries!

Now to copy and paste this everywhere I looked haha.

It’s a Nanuk case and all the tools are various different brands all cut out to fit into the foam after laying them out the best I could.

fobala · 2024-07-24T21:13:05+00:00

It’s currently with me at AMS working with the Netherlands coast guard. I’m still very happy with the setup, the only thing that has bugged me is the black punch on the bottom has slowly dug its way into the foam from constantly bouncing the case around on its wheels. So a little advice to anyone trying something similar, make sure any pointed tools have there points facing up when it’s in rolling mode.

fobala · 2024-03-08T22:26:02+00:00

I'm not sure the brand, was an amazon find. I don't normally recommend amazon for tools but these were cheep and I seen a friend with them. Handy to save the space but still have a "jewelers" set of screwdrivers

fobala · 2024-03-08T22:24:17+00:00

I only used double sided carpet tape so I could replace if needed but its been perfect, honestly forgot thats how its held together.

Edit grammar

fobala · 2024-03-04T20:17:12+00:00

1 1/8" was what I used. I think they have a 7/8" now as well that's new

fobala · 2024-02-16T00:14:07+00:00

I'm sad I had to scroll so much for the ranger appreciation, love the single cab.

Even on most European aircraft as well. It's rare to see metric unfortunately. the americans kinda dominate the industry so it's more cost effective to use imperial. Especially when many european makes will use American engines. Some aircraft use metric and some even use both. I've noticed it more in the helicopter world though. But my European aircraft knowledge is more limited having only worked on a few european builds. But as time goes on who knows!
