Welcome to /diy/, a place to:Post and discuss /diy/ projects, ask questions regarding /diy/ topics and exchange ideas and techniques.Please keep in mind:- This is a SFW board. No fleshlights or other sex toys.- No weapons. That goes to /k/ - Weapons. The workmanship and techniques involved in creating objects which could be used as weapons or the portion of a weapons project that involves them (e.g., forging steel for a blade, machining for gunsmithing, what epoxy can I use to fix my bow) may be discussed in /diy/, but discussing weapon-specific techniques/designs or the actual use of weapons is disallowed. Things such as fixed blade knives or axes are considered tools, things such as swords, guns or explosives are considered weapons.- No drugs or drug paraphernalia (See Global Rule 1). If you want to discuss something that could involve such things (e.g., carving a tobacco pipe from wood) that's fine, but make sure it's /diy/ related and doesn't involve drugs or it will result in deletion/ban.Helpful links:https://sites.google.com/site/diyelmo/ (archived)http://www.engineeringtoolbox.com/
Some friendly suggestions for posting:- First ask Google, then ask /diy/. Your question will probably be better received if you do so.- List available resources (tools, materials, budget, time, etc.)- Try to use pictures and explain the goal, if possible- Be patient, this is a slow board; your thread will be around for days.- Share your results! /diy/ loves to see problems solved and projects completed!
all I want is a shed to do my work in. is that so much to ask?How does one go about acquiring cheap land in the uk to build a shed on? ideally in an industrial area so no one will complain about power tool noise or hammering noise or smoke. I saw one unit for sale near me recently for 100k, didn't even have an outdoor yard, but you can get an entire house for that with a yard.tl;dr shed designs and locations

>>2966131Where are my fucking friends bros?I went through the trouble of making a discord nobody posts, nobody offers shit help nothing. Im building this shot to begin with.
>>2964839Bro this is disgusting. You're wasting materials. Considering you keep fucking up, you should first assume you have no skills required to make a humanoid head and delay making a timeline because it's obvious you're going to encounter endless issues along the way and won't do your plan in time. Since you're working on the skin, learn first how to cast the silicone you're using. Make a simple mold, sand it properly if it comes from a 3D printer, use the release, pour the material. When preparing the mold you should keep in mind the air goes up, add a vent or two to prevent the air bubbles, pour the silicone in one place with a small strain and let it flow down and fill the mold. Don't cut out the eyes like a fucking ape - you'll never get it right. Design the mold to have eyeholes already done.>>2966755I think you're in deep belief you're going to show the world your successful journey but in reality you're scaring the hoes and disturbing people who happen to see your works.

>>2966827unspecified |= 0 is unspecified. It is not clearing anything. it is just senseless gpt/pajeet code
>>2966827>>2966840assembly code just sets EECR to 0 though, unlike C++ version. So that is correct I assume since you want 0 for those bits C++ version though just ORs them, which wouldn't work if they were not already zero (unless there are some shenanigans with that register and reading always returns 0 so |= 0 writes zero)
Also it is a weird code no matter what 0<<x makes zero sense. If you want to clear all bits then just set it to 0 which would make assembly code's intent more clear. if you want to clear specific bits then common idiom is &= ~(1u << bit1 | 1u << bit2) and assembly equivalent. There is no such thing as 0 << x
>>2966749Is the C code missing the final semicolon on the questionable line?
>>2966841>>2966844Wait, I am dumb. I took another look and c++ is doing =, not |=. So it is also technically correct.`= (0 << bit1) |(0 << bit2)` is a weird way to write 0 though. But maybe it is a common idiom in professional world and shows the bits you care about. but then that is what comments are for

spent a few hours in a hitachi magic wand 135 zero tail this weekend that a neighbor picked up. wasnt that impressed. the pilots lagged really bad and its looser than a 2 dolla hore. but it had 9k hrs on the meter so it wasnt unexpectedhad good reach for the size and decent power but felt slow on the hydraulics. not ass tippy either which was surprising. i see they have a blade option thats almost as big as a bladerunner which would be slick. have to look and see if its the same undercarriage framehe paid a buck a pound for it

What should I use for diy kitchen backing that's better than this peal and stick shit that's all over amazon? Hopefully some product exists that I'm missing that's easier than all the youtube tile suggestions involving stripping the paint and using grout/adhesives and leveling nightmares too. I've never tiled a kitchen backing but I'm sick of mine and all these seem like they fall off people's walls in a week and look like rotten ass irl compared to the sales pics.
>>2966365Sheet metal worked for me
I put some osb on the kitchen wall and glued actual tiles on there.No prep work needed and its easy to remove without messing up the wall.
>>2966717>Fire marshal has entered the chat
>>2966365Mosaic of old cd cases
>>2966481Or get a cheap pump from Amazon and a bucket from Harbor Freight.OP, I did my outdoor kitchen without knowing much about wall tiling, but if I were to have something done differently it would be to get a nice stacked manufactured stone and some Locktite construction adhesive (Seka sags too much and versabond is a pain if you're just starting out. Just be aware that when it dries, construction adhesive will stay for the long haul so if you plan on removing it later I suggest fastening some wire mesh to give the glue something to stick to and keep you from removing the drywall when it's time to remodel again.Hard to say what you should do with little context like budget or how your house looks, but since I am a cheapskate, I just got a cheap square and got good with mitering and coping with an angle grinder I borrowed from a buddy. Or you can get manufactured stone corners.

>>2966814The engineers are familiar with manufacturing techniques that scale well (sheet-metal construction, injection molding) instead of using techniques that is feasible for home tinkerers that only build one-offs. The amount of time it took Prusa to ditch the idiotic frame construction consisting of threaded rods and to use aluminum extrusion parts for its frame was embarrassing. They even had written firmware to warn about frames that aren't square instead of cutting the extrusions like any sane person would do. Not sure if that was inherited from the Mendel design but it was a terrible solution that doesn't scale at all. The BambuLab team comes from designing DJI drones so are very familiar to design for scale. Their printers are perfect for non-edge-lords who don't want to print ghost guns n shit.I'm into functional printing (for home use) and the H2S with a large spool of filament (PETG) without an AMS is fun to use and I don't have to waste time with tinkering with the printers and can focus on learning MCAD and designing models that don't require support to print.I'm using the AMS at work on a X1C with tiny 1kg spools and dealing with tiny filament spools is the only one thing that's annoying and I'm glad I don't have to do that at home with my 5kg AMS-free setup.
>>2966824>BambuLabHas that been jailbroken yet?Do Bambus even need jail-breaking or is it just that people who use them wouldn't care about using other maker sites or stifling telemetry?
>>2966820>In 2020, the Chinese government designated the 3D printing industry as a "strategic industry". This national initiative provides general support to companies in the sector through measures such as grants, tax incentives, easier access to credit, and R&D support, which makes manufacturing in China cheaper compared to other countries0 percent financing, 200% depreciation and the chinese government has management shares in their largest investors. all while pillaging open source software with no respect for license agreements. they've even gone as far as to try to patent tech that was freely available a decade before
>>2966834i read the same bullshit a million times, without any proper source on how it actually works. chinese state having a stake in the companies doesnt fucking meant the end units are subsidized at all, just the R&D, like in every country, prusa got tons of subsidesthey have fucking huge manufacturing hubs and currently they know manufacturing better than anyone else in the world by a huge marginand everyone is patenting public shit, the patent system should have been abolished instead it was reinforced and augmented the patents duration to 20 years by the neolibs in the 90s
>>2966802To elaborate on this, the Benchy is a benchmark print intended to show where a printer's settings can be improved. This sort of thing is specifically what it was designed for. Once you have things dialed in for the Benchy, other prints should be set up pretty well too.
I live in an apartment on the 2nd floor and whenever my neighbor runs their dryer, the exhaust from their dryer comes through my mine and floods my place with dryer sheet odor. Can I block off the pipe, or install an inline damper so no air will get through, or will that be a fire risk?
>>2965995That's just a conspiracy theory
>>2966407then his landlord is a retard and he should still move before he finds more retarded surprises
Pull the hose out from the wall, seal the wall hole up, then rig yourself up a dryer vent lint catcher with a pair of nylons.
>>2965993Just install this or remove your hose and completely cap it and then when u need the dryer, reattache it allIf you cap your side it will just force all the air into the main exhaust vent instead of some of it going into your shit
>>2966805>just cap it offI would do this but I'm concerned about the fire risk. If the smell is coming through my dryer because the main is blocked, what happens when my line is blocked too? I figure the lint will continue accumulating even more and start a fire, then they will trace it back to my blocked pipe and sue me or something
I'll start - pissing in the parking lot is free.
>>2964773realistically, how many public restrooms have industrial sized rolls of tp and are constantly refilling them to keep up your supply? The answer would be like two in the whole county and there would be an investigation due to high value of property stolen over time.>>2964283>I keep McDonald's and Burger King cups in my car to get free refills.They're probably dirty and not good for you. In fact, keeping up with your affinity for these brand sodas is a bad choice in the long run because if you'll lose the ability to get free refills you will have to cope and probably will be willing to spend money on these drinks.

>>2966174yeah, we've got an old hydraulic bead breaker we used for it. breaking the bead wasn't a problem because of it, getting the bead to slide over the flange was the whore because it just didn't want to stretch, and when we put more ugga dugga on it, it would just rip and split instead

>>2966727>It's just boomers chattingEspecially about tmi medical issues. The thing I enjoy more is experimenting with different antenna builds.
>>2966727I agree. And if I'm going to have a rag chew that isn't CW, its almost always on 2 meters or DMR/allstar since that's where all my acquaintances are found. I have more fun scanning and listening to commercial frequencies anyway; stuff like resource road channels, emergency services, highway crews, etc. Basically all the good stuff is analog VHF in my area so I don't even need to bother setting up trunked network scanning. Receive only antennas are also fun to experiment with. Since you don't have to worry about blowing up any finals, you can try whatever crazy idea you want and the only negative repercussion is the possibility of poor Rx. I'm just using a 5/8 wavelength vertical for my vhf scanner that I made from the center conductor of 75ohm coax and a fiberglass pole. But I'm getting the parts together for a homebrew discone.
pretty sure there's a kid jamming gmrs channels and maybe another jammer in my areahow to deal with jammers? I'm gonna start using privacy tones. But I'm gonna set up a repeater soon, and the one kid has already shown his ass on the one local repeater and it has an input frequency ctcss but he figured that one out. So he could probably figure out how to talk on mine

>>2966626>Yes, this is why we have houses.Shops. But yeah. I have more assortment here than the hardware stores. Just gotta get gud at organizing stuff and re-supply when stock gets low. I very rarely even have to run to town for stuff.
>>2957345I got a P1S combo recently, I like it so far overall when it works but really dislike the AMS design. There is one critical flaw in the design that is driving me insane a few weeks after receiving the printer. Sick of tearing that shit apart and dealing with a really fiddly pin mechanism. Should have at least been designed to be easier to access for maintenance, even constantly tearing down the little shitbox in the back to clean is a pain.You have to pay a decent amount for the entire module with the motor and everything to replace the small plastic lever arm when it breaks which is wasteful and overkill. It is a recurring problem people have with the first version of the AMS, I can see the design of the tension lever arm changed for the AMS2 but still found posts of it breaking so it doesn't look like the issue was fully resolved. Some people never had that issue despite 500 hours of print time so I am not sure what is causing it, might be bad batches or it doesn't play nice with certain plastics.I've been printing with wood PLA a lot on a 0.4mm nozzle, eventually the gears in the tension lever started grinding the filament then cracked and broke.After printing a temporary replacement with ABS, the factory back shell cracked which I saw coming due to some posts online commenting about it and had ABS spares ready.Then the tension was not enough and filament kept getting stuck so I had to tighten the screws until the back box's layers slightly separated for there to be enough grip. I know that shit will fail eventually under cyclic stress.Now it is working, hopefully long enough to get my warranty replacement part and hopefully lasts a long time after I replace the entire damn thing. I am SICK of tearing that shit down, at this rate I feel like I would have been better off ponying up the cash for a prusa core XY or trying to build a Voron LDO kit god damnit. At least you get cool toys to upgrade to for your trouble.
>>2957396Looks good enough for me even with a 0.4mm nozzle at 0.08mm layer height for terrain, great for custom shit or getting something done in a pinch.Been using mine mostly for openlock tiles for DnD and all sorts of DND related useful tools (aoe rulers, 3D movement ruler, rotating dials used as stat counters/trackers) otherwise I wouldn't have bothered upgrading to a multicolour printer.Outside of tabletop I rarely used a 3D printer, but when I did need it I was happy I had one.I used it to design a quick and dirty VR gunstock for index controllers in freeCAD that I made out of threaded rod I hacked out and printed the inserts with grooves that I can use to adjust the position of the thin curved hand grips. It was on a sling so I can drop it when I didn't need it but I think a gun stock that has a tracker on it would have been better it was a little awkward in some games depending on how the weapon is tracked.I've also used it to create quick and dirty bass shaker mounts for my chair and an angled mounting bracket for hosas space sim shit both of which I have replaced with metal products by now though, but was good to test out in the short term.I want to try making some key caps for Virpil control panels with translucent PLA colors that can be swapped out quicker than inserts and have more color options than the default stuff you get in black and white which rely solely on the LED backlight for color.
>>2966819Oof, yes, the first AMS design has a few design flaws and I'm always cringing when I hear the AMS is spooling back the filament since I still have PTSD from constant issues with our filament master spools (from dasfilament for use with refill packs) opening since its locking mechanism not being designed for the forces seen in AMSs from spooling back and forth so much. I opted to make myself a clamp that holds the two parts together with printed parts and a long screw with washers + spring steel washer which finally fixed the issue of the last portion of the spool getting loose, resulting in the error that the AMS can't retract the filament.I received my H2S for home use, put a 5kg spool on it and it's printing non-stop without any fuss or fiddling or handling spools, so nice. Not having to mess with spools all the time is much more comfy than I anticipated, but it's definitely the remaining factor of annoyance for people who print tons of PETG. Multi-color is nice and all but for me it's not worth the hassle.

>>2966660You'll need an oscillator, as >>2966662 implies. The most simple ways to do that is using relaxation ocillators, cross coupled pairs or ring oscillators. Many ways to skin a cat here, including integrated solutions like OPs, Comparators or NE555 (read the datasheet on that). Other than that: Appropiate power supply. That's it.
