Guess what it's an OC original OC content.

Except as everyone knows, the O in OC original OC content stands for Octopus

lol hope u hate your thumbs

Sorry, maybe I wrote something badly - both options are helical.

I'm hoping for thoughts/opinions on 8" Jointer/Planer vs 12.5/13" Planer

get the bigger planer

and a separate 8" jointer

all my other bullshit still applies

ok, some good points in there, butterknife

i think its suuuper rare that i'd buy an 8" wide board though... I think I'm more likely to get the bigger planer

Your point about it maybe not being super sturdy is valid and that's a good portion of the reason i'm finally done with my Mastercraft one... think its flexing a bit

And as I said, I've never meaningfully used a jointer

I need to drill a 2 1/4" hole but my drill bits go up to 2 1/8 and then i have a 2 7/8
thanks obama

I don't want a through-hole, just a recessed hole

I have an insert for my oscillating spindle sander that has the exact right sized hole actually... but its only like 1/8" thick so to use a follower-bit in my router (assuming I could safely hold down my 4x9 work piece) I'd have to raise the insert like 3/4" or something...

Buying a 2 1/4" router bit is $30 and dwarfs the cost of buying the thing i'm building

please tell me this is an error of words

that’s how long it is

i don't even know what a 2 1/4" router bit would be... so yes I meant drill bit

I also ended up just drawing a circle and freehand routing it and i'm on the last glueup and its fine

p look like a big flattening bit
but thinking about freehand plunging one is fun

This is the wireless phone charger stand that I built. The body is Tigerwood and the hooks are Maple with Tigerwood inlay.


The bottom slot is for the charger and the middle for the camera-bump on my phone.
All of the routing was done freehand or using some hastily set-up guides to ride the router against.
I rounded off the corners of the body then immediately was mad because I remembered that I had planned NOT to do that because of the maple pieces.

But, I still like how it looks.


It hooks onto my nightstand and can slide back and out of the way if I want that space for anything. The nightstand legs act as stops for the hooks.

The top slot is for chapstick, which as an Albertan, I use multiple times a day 😊

Looks great.

You need one of these too!!

lollll

is that old Crest

No I just had some blue and white lying around but now I can't unsee it.

i'm pretty happy with my routed out divot
and my mint Chapstick

What is the matter with you?
Do you put icy hot on your balls too????

Jesus!

But I do like your routed out divot.

So if I can just scan shit like this with my fucking iPhone, what’s the best way to model it up to look like a tiny Tank?

Oh yeah. Attachment.

You're asking the best way to do something that takes teams of people years?
Either start learning CAD or just feed it into an LLM and yell at it until what you want pops out.

nothing has ever taken years
get a BREAK
and give it to me!

Import the file into Blender -> watch three hundred youtube tutorials -> scream into the void
or
Share the file with us plz

After watching this vid I decided to give it a try. I went with bridge multiplier of 1.5 and speed 15 mm/s.



It looked fantastic going down, and while not perfect, it's so far better than previous attempts with support.



There's some wavyness, but I'm pretty happy with it.

Change your name to WaySmoothy!

Those are great results.

I've been messing more with TPU lately and loving it.
It needs an annoying setup and to print really slow,
but the results are so good. So strong and it flexes so nice.

Did a reprint run of the coins I made last year
for a fund raiser coming up on Saturday.
Gf got this video of the process.

those look sweet

I like the mother ushering her child quickly away

lol i was going to say the same

"dont look sweetie, i dont want you to be influenced by OMGNO"
[daughter with a full beard]
"too late, mother. i am a blacksmith now"

It was always too late.

Sonofabiiii

Oh noooooo

But I think I'm gonna go get a bunch of those.

I've been seeing ads for a bunch of bizarre filaments.

Made a light-catcher for my gf's bday last week.
Laser cut acrylic and wood, machined and welded aluminum.
Also some other stuff.

Great grains. Thank you.

i cannot tell what is etched on the short bases and it it driving me nuts

not that it’s any of my business

That's really rad. Do you put a candle in there or a light?

that one of them cmyk cubes

i heard routers were gonna be hard to get so i bought one

Amazing work

What's so great about those grains?

No one knows.
