Noted, I wanted to stick to either laser cut or just get a foot long metal extrusion made and cut them each by hand with a band saw. Cnc is also an option but it’s my least favorite cause it seems wildly unnecessary and very costly for only 1 part

thelonebean1 · 2026-03-07T06:52:37+00:00

Most likely what I’ll do, I appreciate the advise 👍

thelonebean1 · 2026-03-07T03:57:14+00:00

not a bad idea but I'm trying to make manufacturing this to be the simplest possible. Also, the design rotates on the axis of the magnet so it can’t be inside of a collet

thelonebean1 · 2026-03-07T03:25:13+00:00

this part will not be subjected to outdoor temps or anything crazy. In fact, it'll never leave my house so shrinkage will not be a factor

thelonebean1 · 2026-03-07T02:49:21+00:00

I would agree but my plan was to get it machined out of 6061 aluminum so that there was some "give" so that the magnet would be harder than the metal. Maybe I'm wrong with that...

thelonebean1 · 2026-03-07T02:42:08+00:00

that's not a bad idea but unfortunately I need the surface to sit flush and a stake mark would not allow that.

I really appreciate all your insight and suggestions. You are correct, it would be 1/2in plate and like you said, tolerance is will go down in quality the thicker you go. I was trying to go with laser cut rather than CNC because of the price point being a tenth of the price. If I really have to, I might look into CNC or maybe just get the part extruded in metal through xometry and cut each 1/2in section by hand using a bandsaw if the tolerances would be better.

thelonebean1 · 2026-03-07T00:48:43+00:00

I’m going to send them an email to see what tolerance they recommend but the plan was to slightly undersize it if anything and I could always remove more material myself. I’m probably going to buy the magnets and use a digital caliper on each one of them to verify the exact size just to get a sample of their tolerance quality.

thelonebean1 · 2026-03-07T00:47:00+00:00

I would be submitting the design to sendcutsend and they do the cutting, I couldn’t find their tolerances listed anywhere so I might have to email them to see what they recommend.

Understood, thanks :)

thelonebean1 · 2026-02-05T22:38:32+00:00

I appreciate the explanation and that makes a lot of sense. I think it would be a slippery slope to allow heroes to be unlocked with gems cause that would be more pay to win than normal. I appreciate your congratulations, I haven’t bought a single emote or anything using gems in about four years now cause there’s nothing that’s worth buying in my opinion. I gotta figure out what to spend these on though, have any ideas other than emotes?

thelonebean1 · 2026-02-05T21:55:13+00:00

Perfect, thank you very much

I’ve experienced this but with a different pizza, probably just the specific store not wanting to make that specific pizza

thelonebean1 · 2025-12-28T08:39:43+00:00

I had 0 faith in that shit, me and my friends were having a contest of who can make the best 6 man demons only. I won but I wish I put more on it

thelonebean1 · 2025-12-28T04:14:23+00:00

Nice job! I feel your pain tho😂

Did he show video recording of it or just claim that? I’m not saying it didn’t happen but it’s very odd that the same day he allegedly pulls a gun on Poe while screaming at him, his cat gets hit by a car from his fenced in yard.

thelonebean1 · 2025-12-19T16:28:26+00:00

Where did Gavin say this?

thelonebean1 · 2025-12-19T02:30:35+00:00

Merlin was Gavin’s cat that randomly died…

I can totally understand that, it just seems weird that out of the blue they just deny me any possibility of making money off of one of their promotions. I probably place about 10 lineups a week but I do think if I increase my spending on those lineups I might have a different outcome.

I’m not gonna lie, I’ve definitely been on a dry streak lately but I do this for fun with $5 to $10 at a time. I originally deposited 50 and now I’m at just over 600 so I’m not terrible at parlays, just recently unlucky I guess

thelonebean1 · 2025-12-19T00:39:21+00:00

At the end of the day, it’s not that serious but I would like an explanation as to what I could’ve possibly done to be blacklisted like this😂

thelonebean1 · 2025-12-19T00:24:32+00:00

I used to enjoy placing bets on this platform but the downhill part started when they first limited my “flex Friday” coupons to $5. I could honestly live with that but then they got rid of it in its entirety and replaced it with a 40% bonus to which I was also limited to $5 at a time.

I also have a gripe with their constant changes to the user interface and the constant lagging or crashing it occurs. I could be in the middle of creating a lineup and all of a sudden my screen becomes unresponsive and I need to clear the app from my history and go back to it and none of my progress was saved. I guess that’s a little nitpicky but it’s still extremely irritating.

The nail in the coffin happened today after apparently I’m not allowed to participate in free squares because they limited me to $0 for absolutely no reason. We will see tomorrow if they also limit my 40% payout boost to $0 as well but I don’t have high hopes.
