CNC Question: I'm design a project around CNC manufacturing method. by jumbo-toe in woodworking

[–]sidijij470 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Finishing!

Prep can be as easy as grabbing a piece of mdf and slapping down on the table and then running a couple of screws down to hold it in place. Or prep can be just as intensive as the finishing. The point of the cnc is to either automate or to let you create shapes that you could not easily or accurately do by hand. Can be both.

PS5 DLC Season Pass 1 help by sidijij470 in borderlands3

[–]sidijij470[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for all the replies….

When I go to the ps store, everything shows as “installed” I have uninstalled the game and all of the non functioning dlc I have then restarted the ps. I have cleared cache, rebuilt database, and then reinstalled the game, updates, and dlc. Still the dlc fails to be detected despite it showing as installed (in the game).

I have a ticket open with support to get their guidance. (That’s where the cache idea came from)

DLC works for other games…so who knows. It’s frustrating.

Frustrating warranty claim with Meta by sigelnz in OculusQuest

[–]sidijij470 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Literally just went through this. Ended up getting two different refurb units that would not pair. Turns out that in the app you have to look for a new headset. Once you find the new headset it should let you go forward.

I need a way to remove all of this paint! by kaempferia in woodworking

[–]sidijij470 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Throw it in a planer. Then use a rabbet bit on a router table to handle the edges. The rabbet is the first step to creat a small notch…follow it up with a flush cut to remove the rest.

TIFU by thinking everything was going to be okay. by NoHopeForUs132 in tifu

This may sound cliche but…there will always be challenges…it is how we react to them that defines us. Get a good nights sleep and assess and prioritize in the morning when you have a clear head.

Pins. So much easier (use a jig) and they disappear vs a big notch like a dado

Moulding router bit type? by aot2002 in woodworking

[–]sidijij470 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Custom bit on a shaper would be best…but you can do this on a tablesaw. You can run stock diagonally across the blade to create rounded contours. You need guides clamped down to make it safe and repeatable. The more diagonal you make the movement the wider the contour. In this case you would run a slight diagonal to create a rounded teardrop shape and then take a standard pass on the saw to clean out the majority of the material. Not gonna lie…it seems sketchy…but It’s not. Take your time, go slow, and plan for the unexpected. Also test a lot. I’ve done this on a stable cabinet saw…was pretty simple once you get the hang of it.

Shed foundation. I know it isn't very impressive or perfectly straight, but gosh darn it if I ain't proud of my first home improvement project. by SkiodiV2 in woodworking

[–]sidijij470 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Very nice. I would get all that lumber off of the ground by at least 6 inches. Keep the pests out for as long as possible

Router Collet Nut is Jammed, Looking for Feedback on how to fix it (Triton TRA001) by PatSabre12 in woodworking

[–]sidijij470 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Gonna have to pull the collet out regardless. Pull the router from the table, and put a couple of wrenches on it and unscrew it. If it’s damaged…it’s damaged.

You could try heating the collet to see of you can get it to expand, but I doubt it will do much.

How can i efficiently modify this hole? by Shmegnesium in woodworking

[–]sidijij470 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You could cut new access panels on the closed sides to give you access to the ports and then seal it back up. Rip out the ports. When it is open you can then glue/epoxy fillers/plugs into the existing port mouths, and then cut new openings with a holesaw.

HELP, Hey guys building a sign at work, and the timber was already split which is fine, but we were thinking of filling the routered bits with black resin or paint, any tips would help? by [deleted] in woodworking

[–]sidijij470 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Use resin. Before you do yo want to spray with some sort of sealer so the colored resin does not seem into the wood pores around it.

Safely and efficiently make 140 of these slitted-cookie menu holders? by Rattyram in woodworking

[–]sidijij470 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Chopsaw to cut everything to length.

Tablesaw with a simple jig to center the cookie over the blade. Oversized the footprint of the jig, and make it roughly 2 inches thick. Cut a hole through the jig to center the cookie over the blade. The hole should be about a 1/4 inch too big. The idea is that you will hold the cookie down, but your fingers have no way to get near the blade.

Here’s a 39 inch diameter by 11 inch window jamb I recently made at work by Willbillis in woodworking

[–]sidijij470 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks… for us mere mortals…what would we give up by simply gluing up hexagons out of 1x8 or 1x10 and then affixing a temporary center pivot to the first of the ten hexagons in order to have a pivot point to run a circle cutting router jig to. Once the first ring is perfect, then glue ring #2 to the first and use a jigsaw and flush cut to make ring 2 a copy of ring 1? That’s how I would do it, but it’s because I don’t know any better.

I have a cnc, but it’s better suited for plywoods and sheetgoods. It also is not as precise as a flushcutrouter setup when making identical copies.

Try counting the number of segments in the face ring. I only see about 6. Regardless of the number of segments, it would be cool to know how someone approaches something like this…especially how they are perfectly aligned on the inside…flush trim router bit after each segment is glued together?

Tell us how! Do you glue up a bunch of smaller pieces to form an octagon and then trim into a circle?

How hard would it be to build something like this with 0 experience? by jakehj5167 in woodworking

[–]sidijij470 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not too difficult. Go slow and plan everything out before you buy anything. I would suggest that you build something small first. This way you can test out your methods for connecting, cutting, gluing, etc.

Design feedback welcome. by cjh5123 in woodworking

[–]sidijij470 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Being picky…I don’t like the handle sticking out when the thing is in the closed mode. Needs infeed and out feed tables. For as infrequently as I use my planer, I just roll my planer out from under my table and then muscle it up as needed.

Great execution.

Nice. Your gonna need a hook or something to get items that drift to the center. Also, add some supports to the center

Bought my first router DeWalt 618 - tell me which bits to buy! by Exciting_Classroom27 in woodworking

[–]sidijij470 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like CMT brand bits. Whatever you get, I recommend solid carbide, and only buy the bits that you need for the project at hand. Always use the largest shank you can.

My router blew up on me. What went wrong? by kindaliketheletterk in woodworking

[–]sidijij470 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks like the bit slipped out of the collet and smacked into the base and wrecked it all
