I think the important thing is that people have some idea where it is in general, even if those throwing the event want to make it semi-private. So many minutes east of Eugene should be enough of a general description. By the time I'd found the location through indirect sources, punched it into...

Nobody would give me directions to where it was. They must have thought I was some crazed maniac with a chainsaw or something. :D

As expensive gadgets go, this one looks kind of fun.

Not to be a total downer cow, but this is also out there. The Wranglestar review of the leveraxe. Of course, the guy has swung a regular axe since he was a little kid, so he's not a total fan. And a little whoopsie in the vid almost gave his wife summer teeth, from a fiskars axe, not the...

Amsoil 100:1 , oh, what's that burning metal smell?

Cleaning out my closet of various tools. Have 3 electric chainsaws. 1 craftsman 18 inch, 15 amp, 1 chinese off brand, 14 inch, a 10 inch remington electric pole saw, a regular 12 foot pole saw, a Ryobi 40v electric string trimmer, also have a craftman cultivator/tiller head which fits the ryobi...

That looks like a pretty epic pile of wood. I'm thinking you're gonna be getting some, what they call 2nd/3rd hay season fade. Always lots of people around for the first cut, 8 people, 500-600 bales, no problem. 2nd cutting, 700-800 bales, you have to bribe people actual money to show up, and...

lol! I suppose it depends how much work you're doing with it, and how much load. Usually when cutting metal with one of those, you'll burn through a blade, switch it out, and keep going until you get whatever it is done.

Yes, sure enough. Of course, I think every sort of ironmongery was recommended that you can reasonably cut a tree with. I suspect most people are hesitant to recommend a sawzall for anything, because it's good for a lot of things, but not great or excellent for much. It's sort of the vice grips...

For prototyping/testing I think something like this is the holy grail, who cares if it costs $115 thousand. http://www.prodways.com/en/initial/metal-fusion/

Think of it as doing the inverse of a panorama shot. Then it makes a bit more sense. 3D game animators have been doing similar things with the "skins" for their models for a long long time.

Personally I don't really like to dink around with 3D printing as an end product. From my perspective, you do it to verify that the thing will fit, and if you're lucky, you can try it as part of a working mechanism. Then you touch it up, make a mold off of it, and throw it back in the resin...

Well, on regular auto engines that problem has to do with ignition. So, your coil pack is probably puking out. Test procedure explained here.

Take a peek at this one. https://remake.autodesk.com/about You take some photos of what you want to make a 3D copy of, touch it up, and generate the files to 3D print it. Free trial versions, than after that, monthly subscription price is $30 a month. Sort of a multiplatform thing, you can use...

Casual inspection would say, most likley https://knowledge.autodesk.com/support/autocad/learn-explore/caas/CloudHelp/cloudhelp/2016/ENU/AutoCAD-Core/files/GUID-5E1DD431-D785-4306-9CD3-2F25EB1F8D59-htm.html https://synergiscadblog.com/2013/08/22/3d-printing-in-autocad-from-drawing-file-to-model/

Well that's good, because it looks like these guys are about to punch each other out, so you might need to dig out your rustiest drills and taps, and to print out some replacement teeth, partials, dentures, etc. :D Unless you're doing all that old school wax and sandcasting stuff. ;) And...

Seeing this shook loose some rust flakes in my brain, and I remembered something. This looks like the first phase for when they do those faux marble finishes. Look around the interwebs, and sure enough, it CAN be done. Although a faux marble finish in a pole barn would be exceedingly silly...

Gotta remember to mask up, or it'll feel like someone took a wire brush to your sinuses for the next three weeks. :D Amusingly, even with the surface being watered, sloshed with various fluids to extend the life of the cutting head, and the best of masks, you're still gonna be covered head to...
