| 15:42.23 | jlp_znc | https://wn.nr/WDnFZm Snapmaker is coming out with a 2.0 version of their 3d printer/CNC milling machine/Laser engraving system. |
| 17:09.37 | jfindlay | the 3D printer/printing service I have always wanted is something that can replicate broken plastic parts in aluminum |
| 17:09.50 | jfindlay | unbroken aluminum |
| 17:10.06 | jlp_znc | heh |
| 17:10.10 | jfindlay | like the gears of my old shredder, which were plastic |
| 17:10.13 | jfindlay | come on |
| 17:10.30 | jfindlay | plastic gears against the steel screw on the motor shaft |
| 17:10.43 | jlp_znc | built in obsolescence |
| 17:10.47 | jfindlay | totally |
| 17:11.18 | jfindlay | also the motor only had bearings at one end. The back end only had a brass bushing |
| 17:11.31 | jlp_znc | you can picture the design meeting ... "if we use plastic gears here, we can save $0.08 per shredder and cause them to fail in about five to seven years... then people will have to buy a new one!" |
| 17:12.19 | jfindlay | if the back of the motor had real bearings, the motor shaft would not have skewed out of alignment far enough to strip the plastic elliptical gear |
| 17:12.33 | jlp_znc | a friend of mine used to work for HP designing printers... you would be amazed at the lengths they go through to make sure they only need one motor for the inkjet printers. |
| 17:12.48 | jlp_znc | but the transmissions are still all plastic gears. |
| 17:18.43 | jfindlay | I will probably never buy an inkjet printer again |
| 17:19.37 | jfindlay | I have a Ricoh color laser printer: better printing and less money per page |

| 20:06.52 | jlp_znc | seriously? |
| 20:06.59 | spangborn | lol |
| 20:07.00 | jlp_znc | is that what we're calling it now? |
| 20:07.37 | jlp_znc | first thing I would do with a new shower head is break the law by removing the flow limiter. |
| 20:07.48 | jlp_znc | I can't stand showers that just sweat on you from a distance. |
| 20:08.06 | spangborn | Well that's assuming you have decent water pressure to begin with |
| 20:08.22 | jlp_znc | well, yeah... I don't live in a new subdivision, so I have plenty of water pressure. |
