Curious to hear your guys opinions on this shelf. (SNIP)
Opinons? Rants? Rotten tomatoes? I welcome all forms of comments on this particular shelf. Also note the miter saw and other tools are only temporary occupants.
I think it depends much more on how you're supporting it at this point, which we can't see very well. What you've built as the shelf itself could hold up one end of a Volkswagen.
Go printer, go!
It's going... but the corners have started to lift up.
Crazy bit is it is quite symmetrical, and it keeps building level on top of the curved bottom... I've checked it with a straightedge, and everything it's building now is straight & square.
There is a very quiet war going on in the back of my mind over what to do... Part of me is
as hell; this is a simple base layer adhesion problem, probably due to something stupid like me being a little heavy-handed with the hairspray during prep. Part of me is just
as hell; thinking "Fuggetabboudditt... let's see how this plays out."
I'll probably allow this debate to rage until it either fucks up the print so bad it becomes unusable (essentially my approach with the first layer shift last time), or I realize as I sip my morning coffee
that there was something my not-quite-awake-yet brain overlooked.
Here we just crunch metformin and carry on as usual
TBH it's really difficult. Everything ready made is crap as you say and there is constant promotion of even more crap and the crap is the cheapest. Food in the UK is turning into food in the US while our health authority is complaining about obesity being the number one cause of everything. Poverty, marketing and a race to the bottom is mostly the cause of this.
I am slightly lucky I suspect due to my swiss and german background. They basically lived on sugar for the last 200 years. It killed off all the weaker genetic lines pretty sharpish and left me with super genetic sugar tolerance. I can eat a whole biberfladen and dig out SWMBO's test kit and it hasn't budged from nothing. I hope it lasts.
Everything you've both said here is spot-on especially about the race to the bottom in EVERYTHING. This is precisely what I'm fighting tooth and claw in my own weight-loss battle; it's hard to eat healthy when the only thing ordinary folk can afford is crap that's 50% fat and 50% cereal filler.
I haven't been diagnosed as diabetic... yet. But I know I'm on the waiting list.
@med6753, I couldn't begin to imagine how she feels about that, it was sheer hell just watching it live over here on the TV let being there and involved like she was , she has mine and I'm sure most of us on here, full respect. I just not know how I'd have reacted had I had been standing in her shoes, but I expect that in such events your training just kicks and you get stuck in helping whoever you can.
Please convey to her my thanks for everything she did during those terrifying days, respect man.
Thanks. She's a very special lady. I have a lot of respect for her too. I'm just glad she wasn't at ground zero itself. Because all those cops and fireman who where there are dying everyday.
She's retiring in January after near 30 years on the force. She can't wait to get out.
I was a member of my hometown VFD in my youth; made many good friends during training with larger departments in Syracuse & Rochester, & several of our VFD family moved to Buffalo and were later part of the post-disaster mobilization that drew from all the CNY fire departments. 2 who died during the mobilization had done training with us; no idea how many of the rest survived their exposure to the toxic silt and runoff. *Sigh*

I see what you did there. Do it somewhere else.
