I need to connect this motor to this pipe, or the astronauts will die. The diameter of the axis is perfect, but how do I keep it from spinning inside the hole? Glue would be an easy solution, but is there a non-permanent one?

Personally delving into products you design at home and machine out of 6061 puts you against dudes that have serious fucking capital ad will make your at home chatterbox make it look like the amateur operation it is With 3D printing the cost markup was enough to justify the sloppy shit finish With actual real fucking machine time you’re looking at waste and noise levels unheard of for home

I need help getting rid of these ants on my clothes line. What ant is this and what do I need to kill them? There are millions of ants. I miss air drying my clothes.
>>3004679This is the way
>>3004679kek
>>3004584Borax and sugar
>>3004584The solution is consistently killing them in the area you don't want them. Bait traps work, find a reloadable one and just keep using it over and over. Borax and sugar is popular but you can get refillable bait traps, with poison, for about $5 so who cares. Find whatever they are swarming on, replace it with a trap, and then come back to clean and replace the trap once a day every day until the swarm leaves. Then find the next place they are eating until the queen gets fed up and just fucks off. It doesn't work quite so anthropomorphicly but that is essentially what happens.
>>3006686This anon fell for the bait trap scam. They never work and you have to use them constantly.Only larva and queens can eat solid food, all others use nectar produced by larva/the queen. Liquid bait just kills the workers, what you do is soak paper towels or cotton balls in Borax and sugar. The workers take this to the larva/queen who eat it, this kills the colony when they die.This method also kills wasps who feed in the same manner.
Why does the Mitsubishi cost 4 times more than the no name brand?
>>3006349Mrcool does, but it's purely because that's their gig since they don't leak gas.

A place for anything to do with Welding.Post your welds, ask questions and discuss sticking metals together.IDK I just want a place to talk about welding.Thread theme: Weld your best. Airarc the restPrevious: https://warosu.org/diy/thread/2972986Previous before previous: https://warosu.org/diy/thread/2932874
>>3008511Lol. Based.
Anyone have experience with Fronius welding machines? I have very recently been placed in charge of the welding sector of a large shop that exclusively uses them for all automated welding processes (TPS 2700 and 320i models specifically). I want to hear anything and everything from anons that have used them i.e. complaints, compliments, common quirks, etc. I feel like I'm constantly fixing one thing or another with them, although that could definitely be due to operator retardation. We have a day shift and a swing shift so I'm not there 24/7 to ensure that people aren't fucking shit up while I'm not looking; it's hard to tell if certain issues are inherent to the design of the 320s or the age of the 2700s.
>>3008765The primary failure that I've come across is the coolant pump failing and most of the time its due to not filling it up regularly. Someone can run the machine dry one day and then realize they've run it dry and top it off and then the next guy comes in and notices the torch is hot and not realize its because the pump isn't working and add more coolant. Then a third guy shows up and the torch handle starts leaking and you send it in for repairs and the mechanic has to fix a broken torch and a machine. If you add some coolant to every machine once a month it should fix all those problems. If you're worried about losing time, the machine are typically designed so you can just open up a spout at the back and pout coolant in while the machine is still running. Also Fronius coolant is literally just water and ethanol, aka vodka..
>>3008770This is extremely helpful, thank you. I've had to go around to multiple machines because they randomly stop mid-weld because of a "No H20" error despite the res being full (I topped off every machine as soon as I took over). Power-cycling fixes it for the day and I cleared all the lines so that tells me that prior to starting this shit they were probably running dry for awhile and the pumps are on borrowed time.
>>3008771Yeah probably coolant refill issue.Don't rely on the operators to top them off, they'll always be too focused on the welding job to think about the machine and since you're working shifts it spreads out the blame since everyone can always blame the other shifts. Paying someone a little bit extra to spend every first monday of the month refilling the machines and get into arguments with the welders will probably save you a huge amount of time and money. Narrows down the list of suspects a lot if you keep having the issue.
what is ailing you at the moment or what is has been your worst injury?
>>2995350sore throat after inhaling solder/flux fumes for longer than i should.
I almost had a workplace accident today. I was about to pick this cutie up.
Arc-Welded some shit without goggles, flash-burned my eyes, spent the last 3 days seeing in 240p, never weld without eye protection, kids.
>>2995350I fell down a loft in the middle of the night. Stepped down and instead of a ladder there was a 9 ft drop down to a wood floor. I broke my femur by my hip. Got a rod from my hip to my knee and screws. Took a couple years of recovery. Screamed in pain, it was pretty intense but I didn't pass out.
>>2995350Sliced the corner of my thumb off on the mandolin, could see the lines between the finger fat, dermis and epidermis clear as day. Didn't hurt for a day or two, then hurt like fuck and itched until the skin grew over.Basically healed now, just looks like flaking skin.
finished the new electrical installation, starting the false gypsum ceilings that will hide all the cables n shit, and add insulationI really gotta finish this shit, I started it almost 5 years ago, past 10 months I did more than 3 years, where did that time go?
more plastering, more cleaninggotta do the electrical for the balcony
i hate this fucking mix with rocks and sand and some cement they put on the balcony wall its so stupid and so much dust

>>3007201art deco will always surpass whatever the hell modern designers are trying to do
>>3007950Outside of some of the better made MCM furniture (I hate MCM architecture) and Scandinavian Design I haven't actually liked a single furniture or architectural style that peaked after WWII. Not that I liked everything that came before either but really nothing from the last 75 years. It is all just so awful.I don't even bother with stuff that has any kind of prominent 'design style'. I'd rather slum it with a simple ranch-style house, where you might get a dovecote if they were feeling fancy, that is more form follows function than most other things since. They are so based in the materials used you can completely change the look of the place by painting it. Picture related. Someone turned this simple ranch house into a soulless piece of shit in a day with paint from Home Depot. You can't do that with an Second Empire-style house.They are the 'plain' flavor of the modern era. Not that they are good, mind you, but they are kind of a blank canvas. It takes little effort to turn them into something else and they are actually good designs for their locations. I wouldn't build them someplace that gets a lot of snow but at least they don't have a flat roof. Most modern 'architects' can't design a place that doesn't leak. ranch houses are practical.

Guys I have decided to finally pull the trigger and make my own camper van. I am not influenced by the stupid vanlife social media shit, this desire predates that movement and is more closer to Bob Wells was about. I just want to be able to take trips in this during summer and winter. Because I don't know really what I'm doing, I'm starting with a cheap kind of piece of shit van.I'm most worried about properly insulating it. I'm not good at DIY so I think sprayfoam is out of question. I think closed cell foam pads would do the job and keep it relatively insulated so I can run a diesel heater during winter. Condensation handling is a worry of mine, how do I make sure I don't get mold? I figure insulation and a diesel heater will work to reduce indoors moisture, but I am looking for input from people who have messed with similar shit, be it a van or boat. Any other input is valued. The do its and don't do its.
>>3008609I can leave my van in any place in Finland and nobody bats an eye. It looks like a regular old construction worker's beater.
>>3008631>FinlandThere's your explanation
You can just use glue some foam in and cover it with plywood to make it look a little better. Leave some slots so the air can circulate behind the plywood.I would recommend to get a camper vent you can put on top of the roof.I would prefer a box van so that its possible to swap the box over to the next one, they are quite universal and can be refitted to another vehicle within a day. Its also easier to find a 4x4 version if wanted.I wouldnt bother painting it.
>>3007952Nice start AnonÉireanon here, this advise is coming experience 20 years ago so, hopefully they've improved quality and another anon can say I'm wrong on models since X but fix it again time (Fiat). Ducato's were leaky bitches, before you put to much inside, check the seals on doors and windowsWe ended up with one in the van and the other outside with a watering can. Outside slowly poured across every seal and inside watched for dripsUsual fix was cut and remove, bad part of the seal and patch on a new but replacing the full length is best. Look this shit up first, loads of guides for itWhen that doesn't work, duct tape the fuck on the outside but it looks knacker
>>3008729Well, leak wise mine is fine but it has rust that I gotta get taken care of. Kind of amazing it passed the rather strict inspection just in April as it is, but I guess 3k€ means there's always work to be done. >>3008706The one I bought actually has professionally installed insulation.

>>3008340use it or lose it.the hf bands are somewhat threatened by wall street jews who want to trade over it.dont let them.
>>3008340also, i'm pretty sure as the internet closes down more and more, hf will become more attractive for young people to experiment with. it is after all more than 9000 times cooler, 9000 times more autonomous and 9000 times more fun.also, since it is 9000 times slower than internet it will keep away all the hyperactive adhd retards who need instant gratification thus making it a good place for comms not polluted by crap.licensing is a good way to gatekeep but if you are careful enough, there are things you can do without a license on the same bands or outside. just dont use someone else's callsign and you should be fine.usurping someones callsign is a more serious offense than making one up yourself.in reality, a license is not a bad thing. it keeps out the most retarded guys.and those who operate without it for any length of time tend to take their own precautions and they try not to step on anyone's toes and they do it intelligently.

>>3008604They’re saying that the minimum bandwidth is for the purpose of spreading your transmit energy out more, and so being less able to cause interference. Shouldn’t it instead be a spectral density limit? As in, a maximum amount of watts per kHz of bandwidth? A 500kHz 0dB signal is going to be much worse for interference than a 250kHz -10dB signal, in my estimation. And maybe the duration spent at that frequency matters, in a millisecond a LoRa chirp might look like a narrowband transmission, but across ten seconds it looks like a smooth spread across a wide range of frequencies. So I think the LoRa guys in the USA should rile up a bunch of the American companies that sell and use the technology to demand a clarification from the FCC.
Got this old coffee grinder from the 60s; it turns, but the blade won't turn, or loosely.It's a Braun KSM1. Only have picrel, no box, no manual or accessories.Bottom cover opens with two screws, but can't see how to get past that.
>>3008101>>3008103I know lol just curiosity/nostalgiaAnyway, they're still selling it (ksm2/cr3), pretty much the same thing slightly redesigned
Do you live in Spain or somewhere with 220V?What do you mean by "it turns but the blade won't turn"? As in, the motor will turn but the blade is detached?
>>3008167Close: PortugalMotor spins ok, but blade kinda slips
>>3008136>they're still selling itI have a philips orange juicer that's probably older than me, made in romania. Apparently philips still carry this exact same model, just made in china now.
Just buy a new DC motor
tbdesu, I know jack shit about shelving but want to make this 48U rack (two of it) to fit this template I made using Racula.
>>3008225nothing i hate more than a rack full of non racked stuff sorry.unless you are surrounded by people throwing old racks out constantly, you might consider just building a normal shelf.stick welder, angle grinder, and some 1/2' equal angle or square tube. go fucking wild.will the computer be fine next to plasma globe and some big fucking transformers? yeah probably. but why risk it.if you want to rack servers get rack cases WITH RAILS. pulling a sideways sitting computer from the bottom of a pile of old computers stuffed in a rack gets super fucking old super fucking quickly.you know rack you need access front and back right. for cables and shit.
>>3008245Yeah I've got two 14 inch mega globes. But I'm at the stage where I have it just for display. I built them so perfectly aware of the radiated RF.
>>3008247bahhhh.. Any sites where I can just get the frame and shelving separately? I'd love to add rails to it but have to read up on how to balance the load given my first rack will be at least 26 inches from the rubber standoffs. Looks like I might have to just stick it and go for a homedepot steel shelving units.
>>3008265Use tech data
>>3008265Check around with businesses in the area and see if you can talk to the IT guys. I'm not kidding - we had tons of old rails and even a small rolling server rack that got thrown away and I could think of three other companies in the same building, that were the same way. You promise to haul that shit away and you could easily score some 6ft racks and shelving.
Wtf do I do here? First thought is to start drilling from small to large. Fker before me used locktite ffs. Give me some ideas.
>>3008483Good job bud. Be sure to apply some red on the new bolt for the next owner.
>>3008483Good work, they must have put a lot of locktite to grab it once it initially loosened.In case it helps for another, some timing belt instructions say to heat the head of the crank bolt if its being stubborn.
>>3008485Haha, loled.
>>3008483I can just imagine the big brain going>well I don't have a torque wrench so I'll smother it in blue glue and crank on it for a good half heave
>>3008483Sumbitch. Nice job - when you said it started to come out then snapped, I figured it had been crossthreaded or damaged and you were fucked.
