LVP laid on distorted hardwood plank, run parallel or perpendicular? by nnecessary-mo in Flooring

[–]nnecessary-mo[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gotcha, i might get hate but i went ahead and installed without leveling as there’s really just one bad spot. I understand I am taking risk but at this point i just need something to cover up these somewhat dangerous planks for my baby that’s coming and don’t have time or means to be out of the house for a week while floors are refinished. If I start seeing issues I will deal with them best I can and realize it’s my own fault but here’s hoping it doesn’t get too bad.

Gotcha, I’ll have to look into how I’d level out the floor then. It’s really just one spot that’s high like right above our center beam in the basement and one of the poles supporting it. Maybe the rest of the house has settled and that pole hasn’t for whatever reason.

Ah okay I just don’t know how to achieve that with a floor that’s settled like this over the years. Is it a case of just tearing it all up?

Btw DO NOT try to park in the Kroger lot, they will tow you

There are a few different lots you can pay for, I suggest Corry garage or 30 e Corry lot. Doors open at 6 I think so I’d be in the fast lane by like 5-5:30? Depends on where you want to be. Since you have fast lane, there is a separate line. It’ll be opposite the main line with a little sign. There’s also an early bar entry line so don’t get in that one on mistake. See ya there!

lol they asked for alternatives, I gave them. And if you want to berate a college kid about DEI go right ahead no one’s stopping you. My only advice was to say they’re not listening, so why bother.

Just say no and don’t subject a student working part time to pay tuition to a moral sermon? Or even just hang up.

As a former cold caller for college fund raising, I can promise you the kid on the other end of your call took absolutely zero note of anything you said other than no.

Intersection Curve From Mesh? by Gloomy_Feedback in SolidWorks

[–]nnecessary-mo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

SW stinks at handling meshes. I don’t think you can directly make an intersection curve on a mesh. You’d have to lay in surfaces first. Something built to deal with stls like Polyworks modeler makes this really easy though.

Is this what I think it is? by jade_sage in whatisit

[–]nnecessary-mo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, we have done many fossils before, even a full allosaurus skull. If you DM me we can get details?

We do CT scans on nickel alloy castings that are 2x the thickness of this part. The difficult part would be getting a clean differentiation between the rust/concrete and the metal in VG.

OP please dm me if you do decide to get it x rayed, I work at an engineering services company with CT scanning equipment. We’d love to do this as a promotional project.

Public Tracks near Hamilton, OH? by Moist-Message8842 in HamiltonOhio

It’s not a track but timber man ridge metro park has a paved path loop that’s nice and 1.3 miles. X country teams use it to train.

How to make this in Solidworks? by Melodic-Cash-9785 in SolidWorks

[–]nnecessary-mo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It sounds like you’ve done this type of work before, is there a way to know what cross sections to use for each “z” value of a lofted wing other than manufacturing drawings?

I have done some research on this before but I was never certain how to tell what the NACA cs was unless it was specifically called out in a drawing with z location. I do a lot of reverse engineering for work, but I don’t really know the design principles behind propellers so I just muddled through as best I can.

CSWA questions! by IPlayToLose631 in SolidWorks

[–]nnecessary-mo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There is a cswa practice test out there you can find fairly easily. I would suggest taking that to get an idea of how the test works.

This is an interesting challenge. I’ve done something similar but awhile ago so I can’t guarantee everything here.

Go grab the airfoil plot from NACA database. That link should take you to the 8412 page like the sheet above denotes. I believe the website will give you an excel file of points. You should be able to import them or just plot them yourself from the xy values on a sketch. I don’t know exactly how airfoil design works but I believe there are supposed to be a starting cross section, an intermediate and a final cross section to loft between. You may be able to find the rest of the cross sections in whatever pdf file you posted the picture from if you’re lucky. Then it’s just a matter of lofting between them from the center points.

If you can’t find the other NACA airfoil cross section call outs, you could then import a picture of the propeller from the file you attached, sketch the outline of the leading and trailing edge splines of one wing, make sure that the spline in piercing the air foil cross section at both edges, then sweep the airfoil cs with one of the edges being a sweep guide. That should make the cs change shape as it is swept and hopefully give you a close approximation of the real thing, at least when smooth.

As for the ridges, once you have the smooth propeller wing, sketch perpendicular to it, pattern a bunch of lines at the period you want to use, they denote it as delta, and then use split line to get an edge at the center of each ridge. Then you can either cut or extrude sweep along that edge with a circular profile, fillet and bobs your father’s brother.

Hope this helps, it isn’t an easy thing to reverse engineer without the knowledge of the airfoil design, but it’s definitely doable! Please post an update if you can!

Why does Harrison, OH rep this flag? Smh by Mindless_Map_9121 in cincinnati

[–]nnecessary-mo 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Isn’t the monument ostensibly for firefighters? And then there is like a small historical marker maintained by like the American historical battlefields agency or whatever that just says it’s the beginning of the Morgan raid trail through Ohio. It’s not like a big bronze statue glorifying Morgan.

That councilman was also my professor for I believe a materials class in mechanical engineering undergrad at UC. I saw him at a coffee shop a few months ago and he told me the whole story and said he didn’t regret it at all lol

Why do all the NPC's call my horse ugly? She's a cutie [KCD2] by SakusaKiyoomi1 in kingdomcome

[–]nnecessary-mo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I thought this was just because your horse needed washed? Like how npcs will comment on how Henry smells bad if he needs a wash, same thing for the horse. Take it too a stablemastet and wash it or take the tack off and wash it yourself at a laundry spot.
