@strallweat @uncledoomer Looks like you may have been the one who did the drywall in my house.

@uncledoomer You should have hired me. Here's some of my work

be honest guys, should I shoot my drywall contractor in the fucking head?

@Xaraphim I wish I could have a giant DMU 125 and sick red outfit.

oh, I’m just posting this for no reason at all

@CooperZurad Make sure if they stick around for a few minutes, you find something to team lift and ask them to help

next time a confused south american person who cannot speak English walks into the shop confused and looking for a blood oximeter I'm going to invite them into the back and just keep working while I ignore them

LFG

@CooperZurad @TeancumsRaiders CORE CORE 360 CORE ONE CORE ONE S CORE ONE X CORE SERIES S CORE SERIES X No need to thank me.

@TeancumsRaiders Could call it the CORE One or something

Stack Robotics American cheapo bedslingers

Tell us about the craziest thing you ever dialed in on the 4-jaw

@Xaraphim My offer still stands to try and machine the tool for you if it comes to that.

now that finals are over back to trying to get this stupid ass turbine section off these dorks really have DRM protection on an engine The reason the tool is so hard to find this because at one point it was a ITAR restricted item for some reason THE DAMN TOOL TO TAKE IT OFF WQS RESTRICTED while I figure out that crap, I’m gonna start modeling the components that I have gotten off

@Xaraphim *checks notes* That is correct.

@alanjlitz red head

the f15 is a brunette thanks for giving your attention to this matter

@GSxKineticKnif @CooperZurad Zitter

@CooperZurad How do you pronounce “Xitter”? 🤔

why the heck didn't I do this yesterday

@Jack2LOneill @gunjunky Somehow I knew I’d find you here

Raw

@CooperZurad Who could resist that smile though

having Very Serious machining conversations with Serious Business people using this PFP

@ConeOfArc Every time. Oh you got the nuke with 1/4 of the tickets left? Nah fuck you.

"He's about to drop his nuke, triple the ticket bleed so the match ends"

@CooperZurad Getting strong Reese from Malcom in the Middle vibes on this.

I finally have my lathe exactly how I want it. Just finished installing a brand new DRO, solid tool post mount, all the little stuff fixed, everything running perfectly. Anyway… if anyone wants to buy a Clausing-Metosa 1340S, I have one for sale.

@Xaraphim And this video doesn’t even showcase the clutch spring mechanism that’s in there

@Xaraphim Too long

be honest how long would it have taken you to come up with this mechanism

@Explosions_Fire We are so back

cooking! In new and increasingly abstract ways

@Xaraphim It’s really a skill that takes a lot of practice to build. The problem I usually see, is that inexperienced users will often have the feature tree completely tangled, making the inevitable modifications to the model a pain in the ass.

it really wont 90 percent of the time people have issues in CAD, it’s a skill issue When people send me models that broke and they can’t figure out why, most of the time it comes down to improper constraints, circular references, bad parent child relationships, and poor planning from the start. I will admit all CAD software has annoying bugs and weird quirks that make it painful for new learners but that is not the same thing as CAD being “ready to automate.” AI does not understand design intent, and it probably won’t for quite some time design intent is the entire reason you still need a human in the loop. current gen AI models are only really useful in CAD when the problem is very tightly bounded with it clear constraints, clear loads, clear geometry limits, clear objectives , and sure, it can help. But honestly, most people do not even know the tools that already exist Simcenter HEEDS is basically an AI/optimization workflow that can take a design and run through thousands of variations in a few hours to is where AI is useful It helps engineers explore a design space faster until design intent is actually built into these models, AI CAD is not replacing enterprise engineering workflows.

@CooperZurad Oh did you change a sketch dimension? It doesn’t seem to like that lately 😂

hey guys just wanted to let you know that Fusion crashed thanks for your attention in this matter
