Guys my CNC machine created a beyblade, what do I do?
>>2991434>wat du?obviously drop trou and spead wide
>>2991434be sure to get a broomhandle to knock it around so that it flies straight into your forehead
>$5,000 for a 100 foot long, 5 foot high chainlink fence>I could do it myself for less than $2000These contractors need price regulation
>>2994345He spent 4 hours buying materials for your ungrateful arse
>>2994345Since you are a problem customer, I think the expectation is that the tradies should all collude to charge you 2x FMV for any labor whatsoever.
get a flatbed trailer (or two) and be ready to roll at moment's notice and scan Craigslist.shit cum up "for free, needs gone ASAP"pro-tip: offer some minor "prize" if they call you, such as 12pak of good beer, or big bag of lemons, or something.
>>2994385that was 2 hours of talking on the phone, 1 hour of wandering around the store without any clue whatsoever, and another hour of stopping at the convenience store while travelling. sounds about right

>>2993302>What's the best brand for corded tools?festool is what i use for router and miter saw. mafell is what i use for track saw and jigsaw. i have a bosch table saw that i can not kill. i like my mirka sander because it is quiet. any specific corded tool you want a recommendation for?
>>2990505>>2990780You guys were a couple weeks early for pride month with these comments.
>>2990505>>2990591these, makita is great and they're one of the very few brands that's not a part of some larger conglomerate. everyone else is just one of many brands in the portfolio of some huge multinational.
>>2990584>larger gauge cables on the milwaukee suggesting greater duty cycle and less voltage drop
>>2994606wires*
Why are these things so ungodly expensive? Are they at least worth it quality and ergonomics wise?
>>2979355>riiiiip
>>2976014Contractor here. 5 gallon buckets and liners do not work better for tradesmen, though. 5 gallon buckets get brittle, the bottoms blow out, the plastic bit on the handle breaks off, and you look like a poorfag hack. Veto is worth the money for daily use and abuse.

are any of you guys open to collaborating on an rc car project i am working on, i have the code but no hardware and no way to get it anytime soon so i need a way to show some people that it works, this works if you have an rc car with proximity sensors connected to a raspberry pi, or if your car has a comma panda, i am trying to validate my non neural network deterministic self driving algo so this could be a big deal if it works, i could also help with any software problems you have if you help me with my hardware problems
>>2994451>never used pybullet in his lifelet me guess, software scares you doesn't it?

Anyone here ever tried painting something on leather? Clothes, furniture etc. Did it work out?I've been thinking of painting some kind of text or logo on a leather jacket, but what kind of paint should I use? I fear that normal spray paint is just going to flake off over time.
I have used leather dye on a pair of blacl motorcycle gloves to turn them red for a costume. Mostly they sit in a box but when I do wear them (once every few years), the dye remains and doesn't come off.It was probably a Fiebings product.
>>2994408go to Tandy Leather and get a bottle of leather paint, big guy
I ruined my father's coat when I was a kid. What I can say is don't use color paint and lighter (for when color doesn't stick)
The first thing a real man does when he gets a new angle grinder is rip off the guard and toss it in the garbage.
>>2994271site's been dying for years but all the changes after the hack definitely killed traffic, especially after everything /g/ unearthed (search the archives). personally I stopped posting for almost a year and only came back recently because the captcha wouldn't work this whole time. anons on /g/ figured out it was some issue 4chan's new security stuff had with firefox specifically. at some point they fixed it.
>>2994273>especially after everything /g/ unearthed (search the archiveslol can you be less vague
>>2994281this was several months ago that I did all the reading, if you search that annoying ass error message that comes up when you mistype the captcha in the /g/ archive, some posts will come up discussing all the issues with the captcha and post verification. I don't get the error anymore since they fixed the issue 4chan had with firefox, I don't remember exactly what it used to say.but those posts will lead you to the threads where anons post about all the new AI shit running on 4chan, deanonymization techniques, and some AI palantir-type company that 4chan got a contract with right after the hack

Let's say you are lazy af and want to design your own house.How would you design a self-cleaning or easy to clean bathroom? Say, a bathroom that you are able to clean fully using pressure washers, window cleaning robots, UV lights, cleaning soap dispensers (like https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oX5AAiwpiz8&t=265s) or whatever, and then using something (a big fan maybe) to dry it quickly.

>>2992426Toilets used to flush with like 2.5 gallons and your shit would actually make it all the way to the street and the bowl wpuld get almost entirely cleaned out. California and NY mandated 1.1 gal max and they're such huge markets manufacturers just limited all their toilets to it. They literally don't make them like they used to
>>2977903I have a water gun in my toilet, so I can blast the shit stains on the toilet bowl with it. I ain't scrubbing that shit.

just about done making this cat shelter from "alley cat allies" site.most of the parts fit but i fucked up like half the cuts i didnt use a guide for.anyone else have some other cheapish cat shelters or small projects they suggest i try for working on my woodwork? i have just a 8 inch circ saw, multi tool, and an 8 inch table saw.

>>2990812what part of the transmission is this bearing for? There has to be a close off the shelf bearing solution that you can make work...
>>2990821Tr6060 input shaft pocket bearing. There is an old version and new version, old is a plain taper bearing, new is a straight roller and thrust (pic) combo. As far as I can tell the straight roller is bespoke while the older taper is off the shelf. They are non interchangeable because the id and od for both are different (taper is bigger od smaller id) and as such the stub on the main shaft and pocket in the Input shaft are different. I am trying to mate an old input to a new transmission my options are to turn down the main shaft to be able to press on a taper bearing or try to make a bearing race insert for the input pocket so I can size it down to use the straight bearing. I don't particularly want to turn down the main shaft as it's a lot of work to remove, whereas the input shaft pops right out when you take off the bellhousing. So catch 22, disassemble the tranny to take a couple mm off the main shaft, or make a direct contact bearing race that can be installed in 20 minutes.
>>2990843theres a bunch of businesses making all sorts of aftermarket shit for these so if youre reinventing the wheel youre obviously missing something
I’m making a digital watch, need a case, and want to machine it myself. Turns out machining is pretty neat and I could see myself really getting into it as a life-long hobby. With a spare bedroom and $10k, where should I start? Figure the watch case will mostly be done on a mill, but is it better to start my “machining journey” on a lathe to better understand the fundamentals? Small and cheap mini-lathe, mini-mill and accessories could be like $3k (sherline), which I think could do an aluminum watch case, but not sure how much else I could realistically do on that equipment. Where do people usually start as beginners? Also looking at Precision Matthews, which is about $4k for lathe and $4k for mil, but worried that’s stretching my budget a bit too much considering I’ll need to get a bunch of other miscellaneous equipment.
Just finished the first year of my machining degree. It was all manual this year, CNC and CAM start in the fall. I designed and built this bench vise as my final project, ran into a lot of issues with the school's shitty machines and tooling but ended up learning to use a lot of stuff other students didn't (4 jaw, rotary table, fly cutter, etc.) so it worked out well.

Why does every store refuse to sell you these? Yes, I know the risks. I don't need to be lectured, just give sell me the product.
>>2994186And like congress, it is fucking useful how fuckwit?
>>2994203yea that's a good point idk what you'd accomplishing really
>>2993094I hope you fucking kill yourself and not someone else you stupid cunt. I got zapped by one of these last week in some dudes van. He also blew up his inverter when he plugged the van into mains at the same time.
>first time touching mains voltagebuck up buttercup
>>2993094You don't need it.And if you really needened it, you could've just made it yourself.By the way, the board is called /diy/ not /biy/.
How would you fix this? Am I dumb for thinking just bury it in concrete?
>>2992309So I guess it just cracked and everything was fine? Why didn't they crack it themselves?
>>2993570You even seeing a security came video of some dipshit popping truck tires with a knife or something? They pop one or two no problem. It makes a little hole and the tire starts to deflate. Then they hit the third one and it explodes. It blows them off their feet, shreds their shirt, shoots the knife out of their hand like a projectile, and they end up deafened, sitting in a jumble on the ground 6 feet away? It is like that. Sometimes you pop a tank like that and it makes a hole, the pressure is relieved, and everything goes well. Sometimes the structure of the tank fails, it splits open like a water balloon popping, and all hell breaks loose.
>>2992741Boron and sand.
>>2993551>who the president is shouldn't bother youIt doesn't. I voted, but whether my guy won or not, the government is still corrupt and there's nothing I can really do about it, so why get all piss pants worked up about it? I have plenty of my own stuff that I need to work on. I CAN do something about that, so I focus on those things instead. The government and their regulations are going to suck no matter what. The only thing that is going to change that would be a mass killing of every politician and a full blown revolution. I'm not going to be the guy to spark that off because I personally have too much at stake to just hand it over.
Put steel box over it, then a second layer, fill steel boxes with water, add pipe that flows out into container to capture explosion. Actually use tax dollars for their intended purpose so this doesn't happen again.
