This is wild. Mine would be raising a racket at 3am playing in the tubes. Is it relatively quiet?
This is really cool.
I don’t know why this is such an appealing project, but it is. Adding an LED and a switch so it can be used as an emergency flashlight would be cool too.
Yep. I also think the ham-fisted way they are rolling this out is a projection of how they think the ‘libruls’ are brainwashing the kids.
Rather than educated people coming to educated conclusions on their own across vast segments of society, it is almost as if they think there is this secret committee of hooded Illuminati that generates Disney princess woke coloring books to turn little Billy-Bob away from Jesus, and the rest of the country just marches unthinkingly in lockstep with those orders. So of course, that is the playbook they want to follow.
I somehow feel this will backfire spectacularly. Younger kids can be dumb like the rest of us, but there is one thing they are exceptionally smart about: spotting and mocking lame-ass adults.
There is already little tolerance among (a lot of) younger folk for climate denialism and general right wing jackassery. Adding a cut-rate Donald Duck screeching about The Protocols of the Elders of Zion or how windmills are dangerous is just gonna’ cement the lameness for them. Now, if we could just do something about the grown-up idiots on Facebook, we’d be cooking.
I believe congratulations are in order. Getting a good surface finish on a lathe can be really hard, but you did it!
I'm grabbing popcorn for this one ...
(Not to be one of those people who comments but doesn't offer help, if it were me I'd replace the entire base. One possible suggestion - find a different base second hand and adapt it to fit the chair. There is no karmic rule that says the base has to be the same brand as the chair, or even match it. It all depends on how the existing chair attaches. You might even take the modifications to an extreme).
High tech scroll. Love it.
The internet is full of places where low grade antagonistic sarcasm is considered a desirable way to communicate. Those places tend to be toxic shitholes, but whatever. Point is, if you feel like that communication style fits you better, go forth and prosper.
Nice. Is that PETG or PLA?
