This... Same reason companies pay more to buy from MSC, Grainger, etc. Specific to Wright, I have consulted with several large industrial companies that use Wright tools. Their purchase tend to run into the 100's of thousands of dollars. Warranties were generally written as part of the...

The other problem sinking heat into the thermal mass of iron piping is it stays there. Once you have saturated the system, the iron is going to hold on to that heat for a long time. Take a short break and thin copper or aluminum will have radiated the heat away and be close to ambient. Black...

He is attending a FLA (Fork lifts anonymous) "retreat". It is an intensive in patient course.

That makes sense. Most likely Cobalt Oxide version. LMO are not normally rechargeable. However, are extremely stable. It is what you generally find in your 10 year smoke detector or watch battery cells that last forever. LiMnO₂ have slightly larger voltage range. 2.5 volts a cell is...

Without starting with a full charge, there is not a good way to determine state of charge on the bench. You can SWAG by voltage, but you really need a good multimeter. A 1% error is going to really throw of your estimate. Even then if you are not full an extremely small voltage range covers a...

That seems really low. 565v means probably -170ish cells. The lowest I would really want to run is -500 volts. The exact numbers depend on chemistry. Monolithic LiFePO4 is not the same as Lion 18650s. It is a trade off though. A deep discharge is going to hurt the pack. If it is a house...

I forgot to add, I prefer the hall effect type, like the one linked below from the forest company. It doesn't look like this particular one is avaialbe any longer, but you have find 10 varieties of the same thing from Aliexpress...

Voltage is useful on a Pb acid battery as an approximation of capacity. For lithium chemistries voltage is almost useless. The voltage vs capacity charts are almost flat and then they drop off a cliff. This is the curve for a battery bank for 4 batteries, but is pretty representative. To be...

GJ remembers.

I was thinking more what AI did you use and what did you ask it?

Do share.

I didn't pay attention to how small your part was. Min layer time would absolutely also do it. Time=Distance/Speed. Slicer is going to slow everything down to make it work. I think Slic3r which Orca, Prusa, and Bambu are based on does a better job with mathing then Cura and as a result does...

Acceleration is limited by the torque of the motors. That may be a function of the design of the motors, or it may be the controller’s current handling ability, or the controller’s ability to rapidly generate steps. It doesn't matter what numbers you put in slicer, if the controller can only do...

Muscle car prices could fall?! Us younger guys are waiting. :) I hate to point out the obvious, but the younger crowd is not waiting. Hence why prices are falling. The younger crowd has mostly realized that 2020 Camery will out perform a 60s, 70s, or 80s muscle car especially if there is a...

I mean if you are going to cut it off anyway, you might as well give it the old redneck go. Grab a pickup, a chain, and a beer. Get a good run up and I bet you can pull it out, or your bumper off, or both.

If it fits, it ships. Turning brake rotors is not rocket science. What Alfadan said go slow. It probably will kill the tooling so resharpen often. Personnally I would go with carbide.

I run home assistant. Actually the home automation market is starting to settle down. It is kind of converging into a couple of ecosystems. You kind of pick your team and run with it. Most people are going down the Amazon, Google, or Apple path. There are literally hundreds of others out...

That is a pretty slick solution. I actually use the same containers, but I just pour the beads into the bottom. Now I'm going to have to upgrade.

To be fair lithium polymer (normally LiCoO2 or LiNiMnCoO₂) is a much different chemistry then LiFePO4. Lipo are very energy dense and can push sustained currents of 5,6,10 times their capacity rating. LiFePO4 generally can’t exceed 4c for any sustained amount of time. That is why LiPo are/where...

The Sherlines are what I was trained on in college. However, I would never recommend them unless you work exclusively in plastic. They are great on derlin. You can machine aluminum and brass but I found it increadably painful on anything bigger then watch parts.
