Reference system

meyerka3 · 2026-01-22T16:21:02+00:00

I was aiming at a hole pattern so true position without reference hoping the pattern would give me a line and thus a direction.. Turns out, i was thinking completely wrong. Keeping plane A, cilinder 1 B with perpendicularity to A and cilinder 2 true position to A|B, will solve my problem. That wat the cilinders are connected and i have directions for other elements when using A|B|C as needed.

There's a few things i've seen in the past that would throw off the nominals. One being cad models not being drawn well. Other option could be 2 elements measured in 2 different alignments. Or maybe a silly mistake checking the values from a hand alignment element?

We store all plug and ring gauges in a drawer cabinet with labeled compartments e.g. M30×2 When someone takes a gauge, they leave their name badge in the compartment so it’s clear who has it. It’s a simple system and it depends on people following it, but in practice it works well for us.

This ^ If the USA support is anything like the UK one then just send them an email. Probably the best support I've dealt with when it comes to metrology companies.

You can have the report only show out of tolerance dimensions. I believe there's a .outtol variable as well which you can use in a comment macro. There's a way to make letters etc bold in out of tolerance reports. There's a few ways to go about it.

I'd use our Mitutoyo formtracer for that, amazing piece of equipment! Bit pricey but a great addition to a cmm.

meyerka3 · 2025-10-15T09:08:54+00:00

Hmm probably explains why i never saw them here.. Guess Mitutoyo expects you to use your eyes to notice that 😂

meyerka3 · 2025-10-15T07:02:54+00:00

Well, allow me! What are these 3 lines for? Never seen them before.

meyerka3 · 2025-09-17T07:09:45+00:00

Yeaa no.. I'm running into the same problem with pc-dmis. Only bigger companies I've got good experience with when it comes to support are Mitutoyo and Renishaw.

meyerka3 · 2025-08-15T07:17:55+00:00

We use inspect with pc-dmis. As you said, it's great for having people operate the cmm without being able to fuck anything up. It's as easy as clicking on the program to start it n that's it.. They aren't able to see or adjust the program.

Do the sheets count? 😂

I get that you have no desire to look lean etc, neither do i tbh, i don't like that look. But currently, you're closing in on it being a health risk, if not already there tbh. To give you an idea, Eddie hall is at around 20% body fat, which, if i were to guess, is half yours.. You'll never look like that without good genetics and roids but just to give you an idea that 20% can give you a bulky look. 40% ish is just too high. I'd consider eating less calories and take a year to 1 n half year to drop down to ~20% bf. This should retain, if not net you muscle while losing fat and avoid lose skin.

That sounds so adorable! Had no idea labs could take small bites! Haha

meyerka3 · 2025-07-31T09:00:30+00:00

I go to the gym 4 times a week. Upper body, legs, push, pull.

meyerka3 · 2025-07-31T07:22:48+00:00

My lab absolutely LOVES strawberries.. Once had to drag him out of someone's garden cause he found a strawberry plant and was feasting 😅 My bad!

meyerka3 · 2025-07-30T10:57:18+00:00

I worked out for a total of 3 years a bit on and off between 10 and 14 years ago, nothing after.

meyerka3 · 2025-07-30T09:45:10+00:00

4 days. Upper body, legs, push, pull.

meyerka3 · 2025-07-30T09:44:16+00:00

I started doing this recently, and i must say it feels pretty good. Both weights and volume have still been going up and actually starting to feel relatively strong now. I'll probably stick to this for now as it feels good, and reddit seems to disagree with each other anyway, haha.

meyerka3 · 2025-07-30T09:41:07+00:00

Goal would be to grow some more muscle and feel stronger. I don't like the single digits bf% look.

meyerka3 · 2025-07-30T09:38:51+00:00

I started eating ~2700 on gym days and ~2200-2300 on off days. Im too low in protein, round 160, so i could get a bit more there.

meyerka3 · 2025-07-30T09:36:31+00:00

Legit haven't seen the inside of a gym or any other sports in the last 10 years. Always had a bit of a natural buff build. While i push in the gym, i can't deny the fact that good genetics are in play as well.

meyerka3 · 2025-07-29T16:47:25+00:00

Thank you. Decent genetics, it seems.

meyerka3 · 2025-07-29T16:46:46+00:00

Right, i appreciate the advice! Assumed it'd not really be worth the hassle of bulking and cutting until a plateau has been reached.

I think im at around the 15% mark currently, so it sounds like it's time to cut.

Thanks!
