Read a tragic story today about a 17 year old girl in the United States who died from "excessive caffeine usage".
I felt bad for the parents. If I lost my son I don't think I would be able to cope with the loss of my baby boy.
The story went on to explain the young woman's parents are suing the energy group company (Alani) for not adequately explaining the dangers of caffeine.
I was curious... How much caffeine was she consuming? According to her official death report she died from 200mg of caffeine
200 MG OF CAFFEINE?!
Peace and love to the parents, but dawg 200mg of caffeine isn't fucking shit. That is amateur hour. That is well within the daily recommended limit of caffeine consumption.
I DARE her parents to go to any IT place (cybersecurity, networking, programming, etc) and fucking look around the room for 2 seconds. They would be FLABBERGASTED.
I myself personally consume 600mg - 800mg of caffeine a day.
I know this lady who does malware stuff who unironically drinks coffee ALL DAY LONG. Every other word out here mouth is, "excuse me for a moment, I need to make another pot of coffee", and she's probably ingesting 1.6 GRAMS of caffeine.
One of my colleagues is an ex-military guy WHO DRINKS WORKOUT SUPPLEMENT because his caffeine tolerance is so high.
Don't even get me started on the nerds who take no-doz (caffeine pills).
Then combine all of this caffeine with the nerds drinking alcohol, or smoking cigarettes, or weed, or vape, or Adderall.
Her parents are trying to make a cash grab or something, I don't know bro.

A fun fact is that this thing weighs more than an entire Soyuz capsule. Don't use solid rockets in your manned space program, kids. Not even once.

There isn't a single sentence of the first two paragraphs of this post that is true.
Do not do this. Learn how to actually draft a drawing. There's a reason for everything and it isn't arbitrary.
EV_Trapper@EV_Trapper
If you are trying to get into engineering or you are an aspiring engineer, here is what an engineer drawing should look like today. There is no standard in terms of how to mark the dimensions outside of "ensure you get them all". Some people like to make a 0 line & start from there, but that's not my style personally. I still make engineer drawings and you should to, but they are becoming less & less useful because everybody just wants to upload a .step file & go from there. In my work flow the 3D model is created first & the engineer drawing after. This is because fusion360 makes it so simple & easy to make what comes to your mind! If you were at a big firm & they wanted paper copies, then you have to go find a print shop with a plotter who can print the actual engineer drawings. It's rare now & days, but it does still happen! Any wood workers out there? What's the fastest way for me to make these? I think I need a steel form & to make them on a lathe, but what do you think? 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

Very close, but really great job honestly. The loft with this one can be tricky, but I included the proper way to do it along with my sketch. The only thing that isn't here is applying the fillet radii on the inside & outer ends, but you can use .150" across the board here for all of them!
There is another way to make this as well, but it's a little bit more involved, so lofting is the better & more efficient way. It's actually very useful for making a lot of strange shapes that you would normally take a lot longer using the older way of drafting. If you look on the engineer drawing I posted, there is a radius on the middle section.
If you look on the engineer drawing I posted, you will notice the center section has a radius applied, R7 & we use the formula d = 2r. This means we start a line from the origin(the center of your drawing where you can pick which planes you can to sketch on.). This line is going to be 6.50" both right & left. You are going draw a circle at the end points of those lines. When you do that, you will see the curved center section of this wood handle in your sketch. I included this in the last screen shot so you can have a visual picture of what I'm saying.

@EV_Trapper I think I did it correctly! Not sure how to check the radii as indicated in the drawing though. 🤔🤔

I actually thought a lot about how I’d do this. Firstly, ignore the medium. I don’t have my laptop handy and it’s been a long day (I will not comment on how well it adheres to standards such as ASME Y14.5, I haven’t memorized it and will not look it up) Secondly, I’ve conveniently left out the title blocks - it’s easy to copy whatever standard you’re following.
I’ve elected to dimension this based on vibes. This is admittedly a learned skill, and i’m not going to state this is objectively correct, but it makes sense to me. The section cut is optional (and certainly overkill) for something as simple as this, but I included it because I wanted to (not acceptable rationale) Also of note are the reference dimensions. This is a handle, so I assume that the actual radii of those curves is non-critical. (Arguably true for all the dimensions here, except maybe the hole ID and length) With that said, I took what I think are reasonable guesses with the tolerances for the “critical” dims, and a datum structure for the general profile tolerance.
One last thing i should mention is the NOTES UNLESS OTHERWISE SPECIFIED section. Don’t feel afraid to be verbose here, it’s okay. If it isn’t possible to effectively communicate design intent with shapes and symbols, write it in words. This is not and should not be a substitute for dimensions, but sometimes it can be helpful, i.e. surface finishing requirements, part marking, material requirements. In OP’s case, I think it’s fine. It’s not “typical” phrasing or layout but it communicates design intent reasonably well (“without flaw” is a little loose - a maximum acceptable flaw size would go far here)
