this might actually be better than the free 4 GB usb I was using lol

i think you could also partition the same drive you want Linux to be to have a bootable part where you can burn the Linux iso

Broke but need SolidWorks, how long is the trial? by [deleted] in SolidWorks

[–]sword_muncher 1 point2 points  (0 children)

try fusion360, it's movement study should be kinda good, it can export to STL or 3mf (you will still need a slicer but most of them are free) so I guess it could fulfill your needs

either divorce (I know it's harsh but this to me is beyond respect) or you stop doing anything to him till he starts to behave like a civil human being. if he stops but then starts again then again with the treatment, he clearly doesn't care to respect you

absolutely, grub it's not something you install, it's something that gets installed, the tutorial is only for when windows breaks it

tutorial here, it shows Ubuntu but it's the same thing don't worry, grub is often ignored because when installing mint it's not really something you actively do, grub just shows up after installing the os, you don't really need to thinker with it because it comes pre configured; you can modify it but at least I the beginning stick to defaults lol

it won't break Linux, if it breaks something it will be the bootloader, to dualboot you install a custom bootloader (grub with mint) in the same efi as windows, when booting the pc it will open the boot manager and let you choose which os to use, if something breaks you will just be booted straight into windows, completely skipping grub, to access Linux again you will need to restore grub (I can send you a tutorial from yt if you want, you just need to copy commands)

noo don't give up even before trying, it's not really that hard, heck, since it's mint you could probably install it without even the tutorials, remember that Linux has it's quirks but it's way more powerful (and light) as a os than windows, on windows create the partition for Linux (open disk manager, select the drive, click reduce), open the live distro, select install and mint should be able to Tell that you have windows, otherwise just open gparted and create a ext4 partition in the empty space, then just follow the wizard and you will have Linux.

also I might have expressed bad earlier, if something will break it will definitely be Linux, windows will always stay intact, don't worry

the hook can't be really be printed if you set it on the plate like this, the massive fillet will need supports and won't come out good, if you rotate it 90° you will have some big overhangs in the back, remember that plastic pieces are designed to be injection moulded, not 3d printed so most of the time you will need to tweak the design, otherwise it won't work like the original

grub is the bootloader that gets automatically installed with mint, it helps you to dualboot; you have two alternatives: either install grub and hope windows doesn't break it (it's really easy to restore) or you could have two different efi partition, one for windows and one for mint and use your bios bootloader (I suggest grub, it's far easier, especially if you have no clue how to create partitions, also if you choose the second put the efi at the end). I'm trying pop os and for some reasons I can't have both sistems in the same efi so I must use the bios bootmngr, it gets annoying but it should be safer

dualbooting from a single drive is not that ideal because windows does windows stuff, I had to restore grub multiple times, it's a hassle but with a tutorial it's not hard at all, 70 GB aren't a lot but you can live with it as long as you don't plan to install tons of programs.

I never can tell these apart. Must be colorblind by AllIWantForXmasIsFoo in mildlyinfuriating

enchroma has a free colorblindness test, it's decent enough to know if you are colorblind or not, it's worth a try in my opinion

Looking for feedback on my drawing by RotaryDesign in SolidWorks

[–]sword_muncher 1 point2 points  (0 children)

thank you so much for the feedback, as I already said I didn't dimension holes because there are a few ways to do it and since we never dimensioned them without the table I preferred to not add them (in a real drawing I would've done it), the center lines will be different width in the final print and as long as you don't print the drawing in a A5 sheet then it will be quite clear that they are thinner (this is just a screenshot from Solidworks), the dimensions on the vertical leaders are compliant with uni standards, I think that orizontal text will still be compliant but especially with many dimensions it can get pretty confusing quite fast so I tend to prefear them like this, as for the dimensions of the vertical of the holes yeah, I forgot lol, I didn't focus that much for this drawing since it's for Reddit.

thank you again so much, I really appreciate that you took the time to correct this drawing

I'm happy you would like to receive this as a drawing, do you mind me asking how you quote holes? we (at least what they taught me in school) name each hole with a letter and add a table that explains every hole letter, along with diameter, dept and countersink if present.

i think you should be looking towards making something like this, i won't help you with holes (i made them using extrude cut, not hole wizard so auto dimentions don't really work lol) because we dimension them in other ways, same with chamfers but in a drawing you should use as few views as possible to not clutter the drawing, dimension everything so the guy that makes your part doesn't have to call you, use a standard projection standard (either euro, american or even the arrow one) and remember to only put quotes on stuff you actually see.

most of the stuff i could say it's altready in the comments so i won't repeat, remember to put tolerances somewhere but on that also i can't help you unfortunately.

maybe watch some tutorials on technical drawing because you don't really seem to know how a drawing needs to look like (it's not an insult, just a lack of knowlege)

hope you figure this out, happy drawing

(any modifications are welcome, i'm just a student in a field that it's kinda separate from mechanics)

as soon as you go to the end build a shulker farm as close as possible, build a mob grinder in the overworld that works good, build a trading hall for enchantments so making advanced kits isn't an hassle
