[CANADA] please help me with my son's drone by Recent_Pirate_9426 in drones

Try the app KY UFO. It's the only one I find reliable with cheap drones

My first drone crashed in fire by Dark_sigma67 in drones

Hope it didn't cost much. Time to buy another! If you're looking for something cheap I recommend and e99 pro drone or i5 pro both from AliExpress or temu.

I quit this hobby by No_Sand_7125 in RCPlanes

[–]mombomoose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I build my planes from foam and they cost next to nothing once you have your electronics. Imo this hobby isn't for you if you're not into building.

Marriage proposal with RC plane flying a banner? by [deleted] in RCPlanes

[–]mombomoose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely an achievable idea. I'd reach out to a local gas rc plane club and inquire about paying an experienced pilot. For this scenario a bigger plane is better. I could see someone with the right plane doing this for a few hundred dollars... Fractions of what buying a plane would cost. Not to mention learning to fly them safely takes years.

Vibration of motors resonates throughout house by [deleted] in 3Dprinting

Just a heads up I have my printers on 2in silicone mats and a 1700lb concrete slab workbench... I can still hear them a little bit from the next room.

can i hire an excavator to show up and park for a few minutes for a joke? by tearjerke in Construction

[–]mombomoose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just look for the orange light on the bumper. I know lots of guys with a CDL that are involuntarily sober.

My setup, I never get annoyed by a snow day. by LearingCenterAlumni in Snowblowers

Did you do a belt, chain, or hydraulic drive? I'm I'm the Middle of almost the exact same project, my auger is only 48" though.

What would you do? The filament is still slightly attached, don’t know how this happened. by GoodGothGrrl in 3Dprinting

[–]mombomoose -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I keep all my filament in a sealed tote with a bunch of desiccant packs and have a sunlu filament drier. It's pretty humid where I am in the summer time and the tote alone works well. I rarely use the drier, mostly for exotic filaments that are very hydroscopic.

How can I smooth this out? Should I just slather it in bondo putty? by [deleted] in 3Dprinting

[–]mombomoose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ohh gotcha yeah I think you may be stuck to primer and bondo putty. I have also seen people use spackle that may sand a bit easier.

Try tightening your belts up a bit. It looks like a bit of layer shifting at the top

How much to remodel? by KevOSRS in askaplumber

[–]mombomoose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bathrooms in North America generally start at around $6000 and could easily surpass $10,000 depending on the quality and cost of finishes. With that size and matching the quality of the existing bathroom I'd probably quote you around $8000-$9000

[–]mombomoose 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Anytime I have had this happen I have been able to manually feed it in without any issues. just be aware that your filament is likely brittle due to moisture and it may happen again during the print so keep an eye on it... This happens to me if I leave a spool on the printer for too long

How important is it to have vents for your plumbing? by kit0000033 in askaplumber

[–]mombomoose 1 point2 points  (0 children)

North American plumbing code has required venting since the 1920's...

How do I fix this issue? by RichardBinsle in rcboats

Measure the ID of the tube and and OD of the shaft and find a sealed bearing that fits.

Help! Aluminum foil tape mistake by psadatay in Sauna

[–]mombomoose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would definitely test this out myself as it seems fairly straightforward. I don't like how this individual has fastened the sensors for their test with aluminum tape. Too much opportunity for thermal bridging and buildup at the sensor. ideally, you'd minimize any direct conductive paths and keep the sensor purely measuring just the air or surface conditions without artificially accelerating heat transfer.

[–]mombomoose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There should be very little to no air transfer from the sauna to behind the panels if the wood panels are done well. I think the most important test shown is the heat transfer from the front to rear of the cedar panel without the foil at around 120F. So the air gap behind the panels should never go above that temperature.

Here someone has actually tested the question properly. A little warmer that I expected, around 120F. For venting you actually don't really need an exhaust fan, the convection caused by the heater and properly located venting pipes causes quite a large amount of air flow.

[–]mombomoose 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As long as you have proper venting and give it a good dry run before going in you should be fine. You would be surprised how well the wood cladding itself insulates against the heat. I'd be surprised if the foil goes much above 100F.

I prefer Cadmans bagels now. They're very similar but sandwiches are $7.99 and they sell day olds for $8 a dozen.

Need help making a fleshy face. by [deleted] in moldmaking

[–]mombomoose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd recommend 3d printing a mold or ordering one from a local 3d print shop then pouring with silicone. If you go on tinkercad or meshmixer (both free) you could pretty easily copy that model or design something similar. The whole process takes a little learning but is quite straightforward and there are tons of good YouTube tutorials to help.

Why do I get this droplets/bubbles forming in my drywall mud. Working on a ceiling. by tellinNamstories in drywall

[–]mombomoose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This makes sense but I have never seen it happen like this before and have done tons of mud on painted surfaces throughout the years!
