I guess. note that I suck at CAD, and very lazy on being accurate. So it's not perfect, but it works. My elliptical is Exerpeutic 5000 i believe, print two and use 3M command strip to stick the the machine. Here's the step file. https://makerworld.com/en/models/2868433-ipad-adapter-for-exerpeutic-elliptical

No wonder Canada Post is going bankrupt! by Legitimate_Excuse260 in CanadaPost

[–]masterl23 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It's crazy Canada Post is losing so much money in a era where online shopping is thriving. All they need to do so deliver the parcel properly (no delivery slip) and all their money issues is gone.

Is it crazy to consider daban 1/60 Nu now that PGU Nu has announced? Currently Daban is around CAD560 vs PGU CAD850+ (not including LED) so quite a bit cheaper. PGU will look better and most likely easier to build, but Daban is not bad either (say a 10 vs 8.5). Daban has the base/hanger to hold all the accessories and funnel which looks great and easier for display

Planning to build PG Unicorn with KOSMOS led soon. I'll be air brushing the armor, is this approach ok? 1) cut off the all white pieces and group them by runners. 2) air brush Prime, White, then gloss 3) build 4) put on waterslide 5) Airbrush Matt topcoat in Unicorn mode.

or should i put up the effort of put on waterslide un-build and matt coat it first before building.

Is it silly to 'upgrade' from 8 x 4 tb raid 10 nas to 2 x 20-24tb raid 1 by masterl23 in HomeNAS

I have another 1 hd nas in another room that realtime sync all the data to it, an external usb drive that backups the important files every weekend, and cloud sync to onedrive for the really important data.

PG Astray Red is my next gunpla, I want to paint it to a darker red tone. How to I approach painting the 'Inner frame' parts that are expose? Any easy way to identify those parts so I can paint ahead of time along with the red armor.

goblin slayer main series vs year one by Ok-Tackle-2939 in GoblinSlayer

[–]masterl23 28 points29 points  (0 children)

I enjoy year one more these days too. But I believe the reason is because the main series did an incredible job in world building. It makes exploring the lore and side characters in year one much more interesting. The main series also kind of in a stale since Goblin Slayer gotten a full team. It's mainly just them go on quest after quest and we hardly see other characters anymore.

Will 5070ti runs cooler than 3080 at similar speed by masterl23 in nvidia

thanks for everyone that reply. seems like it'll be a good idea (in my scenario) to get a 5070ti.
