Honestly he'd do it for free if you're willing to sit and listen to him about moths.

And provide a succinct list of talking points and responses to chat to people at work about?
How does one convince a cat to stay still during this procedure?
I quite literally know a guy.
I kinda wonder if it's panic at some point. Like they make a fuck up and then start going "maybe this will fix it, maybe this will fix it" and it's just getting progressively worse but they can't stop themselves.
I see this with my kids sometimes, without the panic, they see that they've messed up a line when painting and they try to fix it but they do the same thing just slightly over, rinse repeat until a 7mm line is now 30mm thick.
It's exactly the same.
It'll collapse or it won't collapse or we'll do something different, same as we always have. Pining for a rose tinted snapshot of 20 years ago or 30 years ago won't make things better. It's the same bullshit nostalgia fetishism the far right have for the 50s or 60s or whatever. Some things are worse, a lot of things are a lot better. All we can really do is support those we can support and make things better where we can.
You're saying things were better 20 years ago because there was false hope? By that logic 2020 must've been the best year ever because CO2 emissions actually dropped.
You're kidding yourself, things may have seemed better 20 years ago but the economy was being bolstered by sub prime mortgage nonsense, it collapsed 2 years later and we've not had good times since.
Yeah, well, fuck you for being a reasonable person.
First one done, everything seemed to work, assembly was relatively straightforward and the instructions were great.
Changes - buffer tubes were printed separately with variable layer height in Orca, I've read this helps feeding filament, settings:
Adaptive height 0.08, radius 4.
Triangle Lab kit only seems to come with long springs for the buffer tube, so you'll be building the long stroke version. I wasn't aware there were multiple versions so no loss. They are on the BoM though, so hopefully it saves someone else having to scour the instructions to see if the "missing springs" are needed.
I think I'll try printing the housings for the next one with support, some of the overhangs are a bit misshapen and had to be cleared out with a drill bit. This may still bite me further down the line when I need to fit the module to the base.
It seems like it shouldn't be too difficult to take apart if necessary.
I'd think about bending the solder tabs on the motors before soldering as well, it's a bit of a squeeze inside the housing and it's harder to bend them after.
Hopefully I'll get a second housing printed this week and at least another module assembled at the weekend.
I've just taken a quick look, I've not checked off the BOM yet, but motors, boards, PTFE tube and a collection of parts have arrived. There's a bit of a description/warning sheet and a link to a Google drive with it too. Will check out some more over the next couple of days.

Think of all the murders she did when the camera weren't rolling.
