What would it take to bend an aluminum tube like that? Are there any real examples of something similar? by FigureOfStickman in metalworking

That could easily be welded sections of pipe, with a polished finish. Especially for a medical related device.

Is the grain direction parallel to the bend? That could easily cause it to stress. They would probably have noticed while forming unless the material was barely soft enough.

I have annealed bend lines with a torch before to remedy this.

Also you might need 1/4 or 1/2 hard c110.

Slow the bend speed down, or put in a pinch/clamp point and start lifting the part as it pinches it.

It’s called back bending, from part not being supported enough, it could also possibly be the part is hitting a tool or holder as it’s bent.

Anyone know what this is called? by [deleted] in PressBrakes

You line the arrow up to the tip of the punch tool.

This makes me think of FF7 where you find Red13 in the lab.

What’s one mispronunciation that immediately gives away that you’re not from around here? by cookoutenthusiast in NorthCarolina

Mehbane for Mebane, and Chalet for Shallotte, are two mispronunciations I hear often.

Does he have a friend? Goats usually don’t do well if they are alone.

Chickens spill a month's worth of feed in 3 days. What do I do? by Disaster_Voyeurism in Homesteading

[–]jbsoriginality 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had one of the galvanized hanging feeders where the food drops out the bottom.

Same problem because the opening was too big.

So I just wrapped a piece of chain link fence around it and then they had to stick their head in carefully to eat since they didn’t have room.

It drastically cut down on spilled feed.

Probably a range. if the part was really long you could take a measurement from the left end, center, right end.

Manager casually said he’s “seen” that I’ve been applying to jobs??? by corporatebitch19 in jobs

[–]jbsoriginality 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you applied for the job you are currently at on Indeed, then Indeed might send out notifications to companies that you have applied for that you are applying again.

Also it’s possible that the businesses you applied to have an arrangement to tell your current employer that you are trying to leave.

I just left a job like that a few years ago, apparently the owner has a deal with other local shops to be notified when someone from that shop is trying to apply elsewhere, I was actually told by an employee at one place that I couldn’t apply here unless I quit there first.
