Tesla Insurance Rates Set To Spike As Cars Become Vandalism Targets
  • DO NOT MIX BLEACH AND CHLORINE, unless you want die or seriously injure yourself. When bleach is combined with acetic acid it produces chlorine gas, a literal chemical weapon/warcrime. If you want to corrode stainless steel use regular bleach, it does the job just fine.

  • I put the pic in the comment, it loaded on my side so idk whats up. But basically, I did it in 2 sides. The back side had its roughing and finishing pass done while clamping the billet. The front got its roughing pass again clamping billet. It was supposed to leave .020" thick tabs to keep it in the billet for the finishing pass but they ended up breaking off. So I used the cad drawing to cut an exact pocket of the banana in a piece of wood. The banana fit pretty snuggly into the pocket so I just used some silicone sealant I had on hand to keep it from lifting out during finishing.

    I propose a new ASME standard, the Scaling Banana™.

  • @KingJalopy@lemm.ee I'm not an actual machinist, just self taught. Also my machine isn't particularly nice/precise. It's an 90s bridgeport with a 3 axis cnc kit. So I try and use whatever tricks I can to make it all work out.

  • @KingJalopy@lemm.ee thanks. The fixture wasn't initially planned for, but the last pass on the roughing cut for the front went too deep and thinned the tabs holding it in the billet a little too much for comfort. So I just used the cad file to make a negative that I cut into the wood. The Scaling Banana™ fits quite snuggly into the fixture, the grey silicone was just to keep it from lifting out during machining.

    Considering immigrating to New Zealand

    Hey all, I hope I'm posting to the right place. My gf and I are both trans women considering immigrating to New Zealand from the US. We both have green list careers so we're not too worried about eligibility but we are wondering if we would be welcome/fit in in NZ.

    Everything I've seen or heard in media makes NZ look about 1000 times better than the US. Every country has their problems but from my limited viewpoint NZ looks pretty great. We'd appreciate any advice or perspective you'd care to share. Thanks in advance.
