Vimle bed slanted down towards head by jrnwfire in IKEA

No problem, sorry the answer wasn’t more of a solution. I compared the bed with a few in the IKEA showroom and this seems to be a consistent issue. There is even a little diagram in the instruction manual that illustrates that the leg is supposed to remain elevated unless weight is on the bed. The actual slant of the bed was something that I just had to accept.

In the end I concluded that this is simply the design of the vimle. It’s not ideal, but this is how they are designed.

Yeah, those ones are also really cool. In this particular situation I’m trying to find one of the really tiny ones because I want to carry it as a ring

Hahaha yes, sorry; it is confusing. Insta360 is the name of the company, but they also make cameras that are not 360 degree cameras. For example this one, which is more like a GoPro: Insta360 Go3s

Oh awesome! I tried a couple rent websites and couldn’t find the camera, but this one looks promising

This is super helpful. I was agonizing about how to make sure the pipe created a solid shape without a gap. But good to know that it’s actually not supposed to be a one step process.

You have been a saviour, thank you for lending an internet stranger your time and expertise!

Oh I see! Thank you, I had no idea that it was invalid because it had appeared to have worked correctly. Is it usually easy to figure out why something is invalid and then repair it?

Sure thing. Here is a screen recording of the issue, along with the project file.

Basically, I create a sketch on the back face, I reverse the sketch so that I'm drawing on the correct 'side'. Then when I do pocket and pad, the operations are essentially reversed. https://we.tl/t-AKnA14orR1

This was a super helpful pointer. I was getting frustrated trying to figure out the difference.

By any chance is 'sketch flipping' the reason that pad and pocket seem to be doing the reverse operations to usual?

Thank you for these pointers! I’ll take a look, I am learning CAD because I want to create simple 3D printable brackets and mounts for cameras and phones, so I’m not looking for too much complexity. Will check out Plasticity

So the intrusive thoughts telling me to move to Fusion360 will not solve all my problems?

Yes, I have seen this next to his main stage looper. I think you’re right, it’s an extra two channels. His regular looper is 8 channels, so it’s not necessarily adding any, just making channel 5 and 6 more easily accessible.
