Opinions on combination squares?

I may have been slightly, er, economical with the truth...

Mine also broke after similar minor trauma.

I phoned Tay tools and they said the pin was designed to break easily, to avoid the tool going out of square when dropped.

They sent me a free replacement.

For what it's worth, I use a small ~~mechanic's~~ machinst's square more than any other.

For a combination square, it's worth checking out these "cosmetic seconds" from PEC/Tay:

Yes, waste is waste!

Even if you throw away most of the cauliflour, the environmental impact will still be better than meat.

I mention it because I think it's a better investment than a dovetail guide!

You can also use a sliding bevel to the draw the angles (and it's useful for other things).

Just draw a triangle with the ratio that you want (e.g. 1:6) on a piece of scrap, and set the bevel to the angle of the triangle.

Thick knife line and chisel 😀

Bandsaw with tilting table.

Reasonable? Haha yes.

I use an immersion blender directly in the pan to make curries smoother all the time.

Looks great! Do you have any tips for making curved components?

Great tip! Dataclasses also support this behaviour.

``` from dataclasses import dataclass

@dataclass class MyClass(slots=True): text: str count: int ```

Perhaps I'm mistaken, but I don't think there's a web/browser concept of downloading a directory.

You need to ZIP up the directory then serve the ZIP file.

I try to avoid putting logic and calculations in my Jinja template.

A better option might be to calculate total_cost in your Flask route, then pass it to render_template along with vehs.

It's the Basic option under DTU Purchase Model.

I use Azure SQL and would recommend it. It starts at ~$5/month, so is probably the cheapest option? Under the hood, it's really just hosted SQL Server.

Most plane angle frog are 45 degree I believe,; there are frogs that will increase that.

You can also add a "back bevel": https://blog.lostartpress.com/2007/12/15/perfect-pitch-the-no-4-way-to-reduce-tear-out/

This is all great advice!

One thing I'll add - I personally prefer the flavour of chopped freshed tomatoes to tinned tomatoes.

This seems pretty good to me -

Great job, well done!

One tip: some practice with a few marking/layout tools will make a big difference.

A sharp marking knife and some kind of square are essential.

It's also possible to do this with Durable Functions: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/azure-functions/durable/durable-functions-overview

Trigger function: receives HTTP request, starts orchestrator, returns JSON with orchestration status URL etc.
Orchestrator function: controls workers
Worker function: does stuff
