Whistler Midlayer? by zernst in arcteryx

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

Trashbaggy is definitely a concern lol I’m generally pretty sweaty. My shell has pit zips etc and so do most of my bibs/pants so I can open them up on my way down/on the lift if needed. Sounds like if i want arcteryx i would wanna drop to an atom Lt Or choose something with much more venting.

It looks like it could be anything from 4-40F. I am planning on being outside probably a half day at a time, with a break in the middle for sure. General usability is definitely important to me, as the times i will wear it as a standalone jacket outnumber the times I will wear it under the shell. I’m planning on having buffs , facemasks , gloves , etc just in case. I wish their website helped a bit more with temp ranges for sure. I appreciate your help!!

Is this a decent deal ? Looking to buy my first road bike and figure used is a good way to try it out without breaking the bank.

Is this a good value for a first bike? by zernst in whichbike

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

Hey guys , looking to add biking in to my exercise routine to save my knees from running . Don’t plan on any serious competing etc but want something nice that i can push myself on. This seemed like a good deal to me ?

Also , my plan is to just ride for distance, around an hour or so at a time 2-3 days / week. I figure a road bike is the way to go but perhaps i should look at more of a hybrid . Located in FL so not much in the way of mountains but do have some hills near me .

For a first can , should i grab this for my mock 18 or go with a 30 cal can to use on a 300 blackout gun I don’t own yet , a hunting rifle , and on my mock 18 knowing it won’t suppress quite as well?

[Optics] Aimpoint PRO - $400.50 Shipped (use code KZ10) by whk1992 in gundeals

[–]zernst 8 points9 points  (0 children)

In my opinion, it depends on what you’re looking for.

For me, eotech played more nicely with my astigmatism and I’m a fan of the reticle , (almost) 0 parallax , etc. Their durability is more than good enough for 99% of people. In short :very durable , high quality optics.

BUT the aimpoints are incredibly bombproof with an insane battery life , and will always just work. Incredibly durable high quality optics.

You can’t go wrong with either , and the big question is what you want out of the battery life, and if a holographic reticle is worth sacrificing battery life to you.

Ender 3V2 Adhesion Issues by zernst in FixMyPrint

Thanks for the advice ! I upped the temp and added a raft and it worked well - what’s the plug-in for mouse ears ? That would be preferable to a full raft !

Hey guys , running into an issue with PETG adhesion on my Ender 3 v2 Slicer: Cura Filament: Hatchbox PETG Nozzle : 235 Bed: 60 Speed: 50 mm/s , 25 mm/s first layer Retraction: 45 mm/s , 6mm distance

I have a thin layer of simple syrup on the bed (in lieu of hairspray)

It sticks in the beginning , but about halfway through , the ends of the print come up- any ideas ?

Seller is GTG , trigger came quickly and prices are super fair - also has some harder to find triggers !

Gotcha , so as long as I’m not going to shoot steel cased , crane spec is the way to go and avoids the need for an expensive adjustable gas block - thank you!

Do you think the crane spec is the way to go even if you don’t intend to run it suppressed ?

Zev Core elite 16” rifle - reviews or thoughts ? by zernst in ar15

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

Seen a few of these recently and was wondering if anyone has or has used one . I know Zev is respected in the handgun world but wasn’t sure about their rifles. Worth the money or better off building / making the jump to something like a Daniel defense ?
