@joshu @CalebChamberla6 Biggest part is roughly two by three feet, six inches tall.

@Mammoth @CalebChamberla6 how big? i just saw a vacuuformer machine for sale locally and i am thinking about it

Chinese suppliers: yo guys check out our stuff we are so eager to sell you our stuff we will do business on whatever app you doomscroll on please let us sell you our stuff
North American suppliers: contact us for a quote but actually you will never hear a word from us ever

If you get deep enough into TikTok your feed becomes mostly Chinese commodity wholesalers

I guess before they did machining it should've been SendAblateSend

CNC machined parts, made in the USA, shipped in 3-6 days, LFG 🇺🇸

@_baldtires @CalebChamberla6 Nothing new for a while, the molds were cut two years ago. They're mostly 1/8" or thinner ABS for weird rackmount electronics enclosures.

@Mammoth @CalebChamberla6 what sort of parts ru looking for

@i2cjak My dad is super into mechanical watches and I asked him which is best for timekeeping. He told me if I wanted to keep time I should get a hello kitty quartz watch from walmart, and if I wanted to get into dick-measuring contests with watch collectors to get into mechanical ones

today i am 39. that means i have experienced 14,244.8 days
and after fourteen thousand days i have come to one concrete truth for all:
uninstall solidworks

@CalebChamberla6 Turns out if you're making less than a hundred parts per run they don't give a shit about you. Why they agreed to do it and then drag their feet is another question...
English
@CalebChamberla6 Heck I've just been trying to get vacuum formed plastic. That was a whole ordeal. And the vendor I chose turned out to be terrible.

@notcalledjack @Mammoth for real, there are more humans on moltbook then on reddit it seems

@amphichrome_ This article focuses mostly on smaller connectors but it's still worth a read. It helped me understand why you'd choose one connector over another.

My first office job was an internship at a pipe and vessel insulation company. I'd spend days reviewing printed out piping isometrics, counting and circling the number of valves and elbows and lengths, then plugging them into a beast of an Excel sheet that took a minute to process. Even back in 2012 I thought this ought to be easy to automate, since the drawings were so standardized. Everything about that job sucked and I'm glad to see it automated away.

I know Silicon Valley startups don't want to hear this..... But the combination of someone in the trades with deep domain expertise and Claude Code will run circles around your generic software. I talked to Cory LaChance this morning, a mechanical engineer in industrial piping construction in Houston. He normally works with chemical plants and refineries, but now he also works with the terminal He reached out in a DM a few days ago and I was so fired up by his story, I asked him if we could record the conversation and share it. He built a full application that industrial contractors are using every day. It reads piping isometric drawings and automatically extracts every weld count, every material spec, every commodity code. Work that took 10 minutes per drawing now takes 60 seconds. It can do 100 drawings in five minutes, saving days of time. His co-workers are all mind blown, and when he talks to them, it's like they are speaking different languages. His fabrication shop uses it daily, and he built the entire thing in 8 weeks. During those 8 weeks he also had to learn everything about Claude Code, the terminal, VS Code, everything. My favorite quote from him was when he said, "I literally did this with zero outside help other than the AI. My favorite tools are screenshots, step by step instructions and asking Claude to explain things like I'm five." Every trades worker with deep expertise and a willingness to sit down with Claude Code for a few weekends is now a potential software founder. I can't wait to meet more people like Cory.

@JRUrbaneNetwork Absolute loser attitude. What else can you expect from Ontario?

Metrolinx, Toronto's regional railway operator pushed back against abandoning large loco hualled 12 car infrequent American styled commuter rail operations as having more frequent shorter electric metro style trains and service would be too many trains for them to manage. :/
Jack Hauen@jackhauen
New: Metrolinx's plan to run more frequent, shorter GO trains is now “unlikely to materialize” after it fired the European partners who planned to make it happen, according to a draft of the agency's internal fleet strategy. #onpoli thetrillium.ca/news/municipal…

If you 3D printed an Index 01 sizer more than 3 weeks ago - you will need to reprint the ring sizer.
Long story short - the ‘individual ring’ STLs were dimensionally accurate in software to the exact dimensions of Index 01 but would shrink when printed on FDM.
Through trial and error on several printers (Bambu, Prusa and Creality), we developed an STL file specifically for FDM printers that would create prints with inner diameters as close as possible to the actual Index 01 inner diameters. We uploaded this STL to github.com/coredevices/ha… about 3 weeks ago
If you printed one of the individual Index 01 STLs, please reprint the 20260222-index-01-ring-sizer-FDM-v1.STL file (for FDM printers), or the SLA file (in the unlikely event you use an SLA printer).
As always, we recommend that you measure the inner diameter of your print with calipers and compare that against the image with inner diameters just to confirm that your print is accurate.

How do I get a job doing this?? I want to put computers in weird places
Midnight Capital LLC@Midnight_Captl
Slide from the head of Waymo compute today Their compute is now under the trunk. It’s liquid cooled & hardened to withstand extreme weather conditions (>115 degrees in Phoenix, -30 degrees in Minneapolis) Pretty cool work by $GOOG

Just tried @EvenRealities
verdict: non-slop (the max score)
seems about what I’d need for on the go vibe coding + form factor is good.
