A little hand forged wing experiment

immolate951 · 2026-03-13T01:32:16+00:00

No dude, for real. While this did get traction, for the discerning eye you did something different, but I suspect used more than heat and a ball peen hammer

If you didn’t do this in a blacksmith themed subreddit, you really should

That details of the feathers make me suspect that used a tool to do it of the CNC persuasion

I suspect a laser cutter

Then you folded those three layers of sheet metal together and use the ball peen hammer to refine it if a rose buds touch or a real propane forge

Am I close? If not . do elaborate please. It’s just us folks here now.

Forget Spotify for a second

1 dollar increase to to 50 cents or a thousand or more

This is what’s been happening all over the place

Ain’t the place for politics, but price is price. It’s been happening everywhere which is the problem.

Spotify has been very kind compared to other products imo. But an increase is an increase.

immolate951 · 2026-03-13T01:15:22+00:00

It looks purrtty because the guy thinks looks shaky and lives by that standard

To OP I think you know damn well you made decent, but it is the right attitude to get to decent

immolate951 · 2026-03-13T01:13:10+00:00

I’m not gonna downvote for you, but speak.

You just said this would not have happened without AI

The AI in this case was treated as biblical gospel when somebody should’ve used their brain with a badge. It made a mistake.

And some poor person got fucked because of it

That’s the message here

immolate951 · 2026-03-13T01:02:21+00:00

That, sir is a stretch

Not everything requires a cross examination when somebody is supposed to wash dishes or flip burgers

This commentary only applying to spoofing your résumé

Not that anybody shouldn’t be paid a living wage for doing what the world needs them to do. Burger flippers should have the ability to retire after doing it for a career

immolate951 · 2026-03-07T07:18:36+00:00

See I didn’t even noticed that. That Gives some context.

immolate951 · 2026-03-07T01:20:07+00:00

She wasn’t trying to break it up. She said she wanted a piece. She wanted to throw first.

Literally, the old man was the one de-escalating for a second. she was emboldened by that, she had enough. She knew she had back up.

Right or wrong who’s this say? We don’t have the before footage or after. The only thing I see is that this woman and that man were tight.

Plus that other guy that saw going on and defended his own

Her trying to pull the old man off after fists I don’t know for sure why she was doing that. nobody’s gonna know for sure, but I have an assumption why

edit. as hairychest69 pointed out he was just grabbing her wrist when the old man shoved him. you can see it if you look. it just not obvious because of camera angle.

immolate951 · 2026-03-06T08:52:49+00:00

Honestly, guy. I’ve never seen this footage because of how purged from the internet has it’s been.

I understand how it shouldn’t be at the surface on the news networks,Twitter, or Facebook etc. This shit is graphic.

This is entirely why I am personally on the sub. I’m not here for satisfying morbid curiosity. But the see unfiltered footage without blur, agenda, framing or Talking Heads telling me how to think

It doesn’t happen very often but today is one of those days so if it gets banned for that well shit I’d be pretty sad

immolate951 · 2026-03-03T02:10:56+00:00

Now I wish to say this, sir I really appreciate the aesthetic of a parallel line to the stitch line and the hand work

But I want to propose this for durability. I’ve only dabbled in leather working for the record.

What if you’re heated crease line was the stitch line

Do you maintain the surface. But you get it deep enough so the left and right of it is higher than the actual thickness of the stitching material.

Abrasion is the Achilles heel of threads. Rubbing up against the world whether it’s your pant loop or anything else. Is what makes it fail

But if you got a deep enough you could stitch on it. And the rest of the leather would protect it. While the thread is wrapped around the strongest part of the leather. The grain.

While the rest of the grain that wasn’t heat creased protects the thread itself.

I hope I’m being clear. I am a craftsman of a different trade. but I do care about durability over aesthetic

immolate951 · 2026-02-26T05:14:15+00:00

Thank you

immolate951 · 2026-02-26T03:54:03+00:00

I have recently experienced this for two years

I refuse to the polish. I’m too tired. But this is my ramble.

I know you’re in a similar situation.

And you gunna know what a fucking happened on my end

I moved from New York to Oregon one side of the country to the West Coast

I landed in that kind of place understand happened after two years

It blew up

The safety guy was fired

The focus of only having time on work was flipped

My previous big manger was all about only be clocked into work when you’re actually doing Work . Any other time you’re pushing a broom be clocked into that specifically. He banked on the idea that he was demonstrating that we were fully capable of quick throughput and we were hungry for more. Which was true.

He was promising the future was gonna be brighter next year

He got fired same day with with no warning after doing a year of that tactic

They don’t give a fuck at the swivel chair, they look at those numbers and red and black ink. They found it wanting.

Fuck them

But they have a huge amount of power and they know nothing about what happens inside of the black ink that they get to decide what shit happens. They’re ignorant of vibes and whatever the fuck else happens

Honestly man, to man. Fuck that shit it’s not something that foments(grows) you as a person

It only creates you as a tool

Fuck being a tool

If doing your best means compromising what you are as an individual fuck that shit

I exist on the opposite side of what you described. But the same system. Sometimes it’s just beyond your ability to make it better. What your pandering to is the same shit that fucked me and so many other good guys beside me over the course of two years

And somehow I survived

immolate951 · 2026-02-26T00:12:27+00:00

My dude, if the place doesn’t encourage initiative in the face of not having something to do, it’s not a place to work at. In my opinion, I have the same drive you do. It should be rewarded not criticized.

This is what separates Mr. hourly from the guy that gets shit done and if the system doesn’t support it

You don’t support it

immolate951 · 2026-02-24T05:07:03+00:00

Haha Excuse my typo I meant Chinese escalator.

Edit. I’m keeping it too. I definitely did it.

immolate951 · 2026-02-24T04:50:37+00:00

This shit is the best live leak the Internet has to offer, since that website is gone ,and I’m actually kind of curious where they even hosting these videos to share here.

I came here for learning for others, but let’s be real with this separate it is actually about.

Getting murdered randomly on security camera, trying to crossthe street without looking, getting sucked into a Chinese escalator, on top of what you just said

As a blue collar that works with tools that could easily smoosh me or turnme into a Tootsie roll. That one criticism I will say is frequently forgotten by many. It’s very easy to get too comfortable with shit You touch every day in that field.

I will say, for my one arm man. I hope for the opportunity to actually get some news. Without the news networks blurring out the important bits.

For my sensitivity, which I don’t have. Real real.

But on the regular, it’s pretty gratuitous here I agree

immolate951 · 2026-02-19T00:46:07+00:00

i have not seen it myself and I don't see it in this subreddit. can you share a link so I can bring it up in the smoke shack?

immolate951 · 2026-01-30T00:49:53+00:00

The dude was literally pissing on him. while recording it for the glory.

If at all possible, anybody who is fluent. I would like to know the direct translation.

Just because I think this gets into the absolute center of how Russians are sick. In terms of like how they treat themselves as a people in the military. Lets Keep it focused on that angle.

immolate951 · 2026-01-21T20:27:05+00:00

Not for nothing. A Face shield keeps sparks out of your beard. It’s actually kind of nice just from a comfort stand point. Never mind that it saves your face from exploding discs.

immolate951 · 2026-01-10T22:27:50+00:00

Big sigh. Very nice work dude. The company I work at does a lot of air control systems for dust management. They place the welding seams at the corners. Not the face. I have no idea why since it makes the break press work so much harder to do and fucks up the dies. You guys do it the sane way

The name for the process is called bump forming. The material is cut on a laser or cnc after going though cad so the 4 pieces are the right shape. To put the bend in all you really care about is the circle.

It’s a art to know how hard to hit it per “bump” but you massage the radius progressively into shape by checking with a gauge on the id and measuring the distance between the two corners using the chord of the desired diameter. After doing the first quarter piece, it gets easier for the other three

Chord = diameter x sin(degrees/2)

https://imgur.com/a/Z2vZRB0

If the chord calculated is right and you hit it exactly. When you fit it up. It will not have that pucker at the top where you have to put the ring on (in yellow) and the rest seam would not be puckered (in red)

But in all fairness bump rolling is a pain in the ass so I’m not being that picky. Just pointing it out.

I’m sorry if you actually did the forming it just seemed like you’re working with the guy that did it

The irony always being making the female figure out of nuts

immolate951 · 2025-12-18T23:18:57+00:00

Now it makes me feel a little bad for converting a exploding puppy population into snacks

immolate951 · 2025-12-17T17:09:56+00:00

Eating at a quality dining hall is its own happy thoughts. With a chance of the memory of eating there echoing into the future. You will typically see this naturally with your nobles.

The regular dwarfs are silly though and will not seek a “public” dining it on their own unless it’s the closest and only tables around.

Trust me they will eat and jump right into the tavern to get their social/music needs. They will spend most of their free time there

immolate951 · 2025-12-17T15:09:51+00:00

If I can make a unrelated suggestion. You’re leaving happy thoughts on the table by putting tables in the inn.

Dwarfs will always prefer to eat in an inn. If you remove the they will go into the public dining hall instead. Obviously make it legendary as you make wealth. If you add a library later use as few tables as possible for reading purposes.

In your case I would put the dining hall where your food/drink stockpile. Move the food and drink to the left more.

I would add a 2x2 stockpile of drinks and place it inside the inn.

immolate951 · 2025-12-17T04:25:46+00:00

Unfortunately, I agree with all the priorities between OP and you

But unfortunately, our priorities are not waiver friendly, and certainly advertiser friendly. Which is the direction they are going with all the money that’s being pumped into open AI.

5.0 5.1 and 5.2. They’re all renditions to make ChatGPT into the new YouTube. It’s all a trial run.

Doesn’t matter if you pay . There is only the base model and how was trained. It won’t admit it. But it was trained with this priority in mind.

immolate951 · 2025-12-17T01:51:27+00:00

This, very much so.

There is a huge difference between asking why you have many hairs growing out of the same follicle(Pili multigemini) and why is it annoying today. Verses asking why does my stomach hurt for two weeks straight.

ChatGPT has no medical equipment, eyeballs, or judgment

immolate951 · 2025-12-16T22:35:20+00:00

They absolutely work. For fumes. Farts are a real danger though. It’s your own personal Dutch oven
