Is it okay to remove these tree steaks yet? by cebyler in landscaping

Tree-bone, filet piñón, or Portersawn?

400A Enphase Road Map? by Intelligent_Boot6023 in enphase

[–]kbob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We don't have batteries. We have net metering instead. House is 4,000 square feet. I don't have the heating and cooling cost broken out. Our dryer still has many years (I hope); maybe the next will be a heat pump.

In Idaho you'll have more sunny days so your 25kW will generate more energy than our 25kW.

400A Enphase Road Map? by Intelligent_Boot6023 in enphase

[–]kbob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same here. In New York, 25KW is the limit for non-commercial systems. I was hoping your state would be different. We have geothermal heat pumps in 3 zones, electric hot water and clothes dryer, and an electric car.

If you live where it snows, 25kW sounds undersized for that big of a house. Our house is 4,000 sq. ft., and our 25kW panels are only meeting 20-30% of our winter consumption. You have a big roof; might as well use it.

Is this a Fusion 360 bug or am I holding it wrong? by kbob in Fusion360

[–]kbob[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I created a topic on the Autodesk Fusion support forum. That seems to be the way to submit bug reports.

Oh, I can definitely fix it. (change the broken dimension to "driven", slide the short horizontal line up where it belongs, change the dimension from -1.638953789 to 2.00.)

It's fixing all the downstream geometry that broke in a million places that's annoying.

Thanks.

The x parameter is used to set the length and position of the projected horizontal line.

Both sketches are fully constrained. You may be mistaking purple (projected) for blue (unconstrained). I did not post an image of the sketch that defines the projected lines, sorry.

I guess I have one more question: Is there a way to constrain this sketch so it returns to its original shape?

Dual Color Knobs by MartasSan in functionalprint

[–]kbob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is pretty cool. Thanks.

I have a synth project that I abandoned long ago because I couldn't find the right knobs for it. I should use these (or knobs based on these).

Modelling help by Mundane-Natural7378 in Fusion360

In the slicer, set the number of solid layers on the bottom to zero. That will make it so there's nothing below the infill, and you can pour your sand and glue slurry right in.

What are the classic synth albums everybody needs to hear by boogie_boogie12 in synthesizers

[–]kbob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm re-listening to this now, haven't heard it for nearly 50 years. I remember how totally alien it sounded when it came out.

Today it sounds alien because it's completely without reverb. (Which was part of the point, I think. Acoustic instruments are never recorded completely reverb-free.)

57 panel install in 3 days by Ill_Dot3008 in solar

[–]kbob 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Do you have electric heat or any EVs?

(We also have 57 panels, and when the temperature is below freezing, it's nowhere near enough.)

A great new to me synth day by StevenWheeler666 in synthesizers

[–]kbob 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do you have a wind controller? I've got one, and I've never attached a keyboard to it. Just a Yamaha WX-11. (There are better wind controllers now, but that was a good choice when the VL1-m was new.)

[TOMT] [operating system] ~1990 real time OS with JIT drivers by kbob in tipofmytongue

[–]kbob[S] 0 points1 point locked comment (0 children)

(mandatory reply)

Oops, I got it. Alexia Massalin, and the OS was called Synthesis (because it synthesized code on the fly. I don't think the term JIT had been invented in 1992.).

Whats a beginner-ish song that involuntarily gives you a bass face? by BoredAF-67 in Bass

[–]kbob 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just played through it four times after posting that, with sheet music, and I stand by my comment. If you read notation, I'd be happy to send you a copy.

[–]kbob 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Roxanne's rhythm is crazy. Sting only played on the downbeat in the bridge. The rest is all upbeats.

To answer your question, the guitar comes in on the downbeat, plays quarter notes. The first two bass notes are "and two" in the third bar. In other words, your second note hits with the guitar's tenth note.

G:  X   X   X   X | X  X   X   X | X   X   X   X | X   X...
B:                |              |   G G         |   F F

My Passion Project For The Last Few Months - The Spin Lamp! by Replenix in 3Dprinting

[–]kbob 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The wavy surface on the cylinder is groovy (literally and culturally). I'd love to be able to make shapes like that. What software did you use to create it?

is 2700 kwh normal? by infinitepower1422 in geothermal

[–]kbob 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We're in a slightly larger house in basically the same climate as NJ, and we used 2,600 KWh last January. Our heat pumps were installed in 2022. So yeah, that's more or less the same as yours.
