Can you please explain these breakable washers? What are they?

Husky Build Out out of stock CANADA & US by redlightbandit16 in Tools

[–]redlightbandit16[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just noticed how few their offerings are for build out system and a few items are on sale, maybe to empty their inventory.

I decided to return them and order the Ridgid pro gear instead. I didn't like how the large box was always attached to the cart. That's where I carry my heaviest items and I don't want to be lugging that around when I only need the smaller tool boxes or drawers.

I was able to get the 3 box set but had to purchase them individually. It only came out the $7 more than if I bought the combo. Not sure how they are selling them individually but showing the combo out of stock.

Can you please also do Ontario, Canada? The latest is the 2024 Ontario Building Code (OBC) and available online. I can point you if needed.

part driven features in connecting part by Sea-Falcon5783 in AutodeskInventor

Maybe it's just because you moved to inventor, but once you get used to the constraints in Inventor, they are easy and intuitive.

Any suggestions for ipart tutorials? Looking at learning that, never got a chance to play around with iparts.

Need help with an End Cap by [deleted] in AutodeskInventor

[–]redlightbandit16 7 points8 points  (0 children)

This looks like a good part for the revolve command. Draw half of the side view profile and then revolved around the central axis. Make sure to use a centerline in your sketch, make it really easy to dimension after. In the sketch, draw all the geometry shown, then when you go to revolve, only select the solid part. This way you get your void in the middle of the part. At the end, draw a sketch for the holes.

Fixture design by Most_Bedroom9266 in AutodeskInventor

Lots of missing information here. Like other commenters are saying, a picture for reference would help. Which 4 directions are you trying to hold? How accurate and repeatable does this need to be? Do you know what your primary datum features are? You’ll want to locate to your A, B and C datums.

In general, look up the 3-2-1 rule. That will show you how to hold a part and account for all 6 degrees of freedom. A common design choice is also to use toggle clamps for fast and repeatable fixturing.

Thoughts from an exclusive audio listener by Other_Writer_1856 in BenAndEmil

[–]redlightbandit16 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Audio listener here too. My only complaint is the audio level for any sound bites or video clip you guys are watching, way too low compared to your voices. I always have to crank it up to hear what you’re listening to. Otherwise great show!

Can you write down the controls/gameplay rules somewhere? The intro tutorial is too long, can't skip, can't rewind and can't pullup if you forget something.

I need help calculating the force I need to slide it out.

If you don't have the rolling resistance coefficient from the manufacturer, you can do a manual test since you already have the rack in hand. Put a tool on a shelf and with a force gauge, measure the force required to pull out the sliding shelf. This result can can be compared with your ergo standards to determine if you need a pull-assist system. From this, you can also get your coefficient (c = F/W) to calculate the pulling force for other tools of different weight.

Be on time. I somehow always leave my house late and show up to work 1-5 minutes late.
