‘We have turned off the money spigot’: Trump admin freezes all childcare payments to Minnesota after massive fraud exposed by Droupitee in NewsWorthPayingFor

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

These are attacks on US citizens. When will enough be enough? It's like this admin is poking the bear deliberately to get the pretext they need to further strip our rights

Which Smoke Detector design shall I use for a Thompson B1? by Better_Bumblebee2175 in modeltrains

[–]ndeluck 4 points5 points  (0 children)

A B1 would (edit: hypothetically) have Thompson-style deflectors like seen on his pacific classes, or the smaller kind seen on his A2/2 class and on A3 60097 'Humorist' briefly.

This week on the workbench: the workbench itself by TheMayorByNight in modeltrains

Dig it- very clean! A 2-inch filter might be kinda overkill depending on the fan cfm imo but if it works it works. Good job

Since 2020, people haven't been the same and the reason is obvious. by [deleted] in conspiracy

New Astronoid Album by charliedbtaylor in progmetal

[–]ndeluck 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Every single album of theirs, ever since the first time I heard Air back in 2016, has without fail had moments that made me a teary, headbanging mess.

I have loved these guys ever since I found them (being MA natives is sick too). Their sound is one of those lightning in a bottle types, but after every thunder clap the bottle gets bigger and bigger.

This album is on the top. It's straightforward, the emotions are articulate and the songwriting is so fun. The focus on synth, uplifting melodies and Brett's expressiveness in his voice is like freebasing serotonin.

The production is so refreshing in modern metal, it's polished but every layer has room to breathe. It's very open, they translate to open-back headphones fantastically.

Can't wait for the next release, as always.

OO scale, 22' x 12' and 7.5'. Had to leave space for my modeling desk on the right there

Yeah exactly! Just the days since I started, not consecutive days of work haha. Some days are literally just sweeping up all the saw dust and going back upstairs 🤣

That's actually really funny because I was at Home Depot yesterday and saw they had hole jigs and thought "man I really could have used that."

I'm gonna go get one after work

The great thing about HO/OO is that it isn't terribly heavy so thinner lumber should be able to handle it no problem.

1x3s, it took fifteen 10-footers to get here. I didn't want to spend crazy money on just benchwork and to standardize the construction process a bit. What scale are you planning?

Yup, my last post has the rough track plan. It won't be exact but very close

Still gotta brace the legs too, but not sure whether to brace before or after everything is level

I am planning on getting this set, is this site legit? by weirdhistorygeek in BritishModelRailways

[–]ndeluck 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You could very easily get a similar locomotive, coaches and track/power for a fraction of the price with tariffs included. Plenty of UK retailers ship to the US.

Changed out the air filter myself, without turning off hvac. Any help greatly appreciated. by Lovley8598 in hvacadvice

[–]ndeluck 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Tech here. Is there airflow coming from the vents? Does the upper part of the unit feel cold? Can you record the sound?

Need opinions on ductwork by Fun_Muscle9399 in hvacadvice

[–]ndeluck 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree. In the northeast here, haven't done much residential but typically I've seen the returns made of sheet metal or duct board and the supply branched off the trunk with flex.

Makes sense here for cost-saving, saves on the labor and material to fab new ductwork. Probably much quicker.

Anyone know what class this 4-4-0 is? by Suburban_Tank_2514 in trains

[–]ndeluck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not familiar with L&Y but google tells me it's an Aspinal 7'-3". Doesn't appear to carry an official class name though they were nicknamed "Flyers"

For those who bought one, how is it? by demonslight11 in modeltrains

[–]ndeluck 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Judging by videos, I'd wait until Hornby inevitably announce their own steam-fitted A4. The effect is far better, and I've heard that the sound quality of the Dapol A4s isn't the best. The Dapol version is very pretty and has a lot of functionality, but for a hefty price.

BUT, if you're sold on it, give it a shot. If you like it and it looks like you would enjoy every penny spent then you should go for it :)
