The 1% of China? I mean, I’m sure they have an elite, but the 1% thing is usually pointed out as a sore spot for capitalism.

(This joke probably doesn’t work anymore, but I still think it’s funny.)
Very elegant! How did you cut the tapers on the legs? There doesn’t seem to be a great way to do it. I’d use the table saw with a custom jig probably.
I’m not using disk encryption. It’s a desktop and if it’s every stolen I’ve got bigger problems.
Also, I presume that disk encryption makes it so you can’t just pop the drive in an adapter and pull stuff off it, which I sometimes need to do with old, retired drives.
Rats. Leaving TPM off in the BIOS is how I’ve been avoiding it nagging me to upgrade from 10.
Interesting. As much as I’m a Foobar2000 fan, it’s not open source. Looks like I’ll be giving Winamp another spin soon.
So you’re suggesting that all scammers are skilled.
Better light outside and the patio was a mess.
It’s a real dilemma.
Thank you! It was made specifically for a Fender P bass, which is not particularly delicate. I have another one with a different design that I made for my acoustic, but that stand is more of a prototype made out of pine and not as impressive.
I do like the idea of moving the ‘head’ forward so it cradles the neck. I only just had enough stock to make this (well, without cutting into some bigger, nicer boards) so I didn’t have a lot of room for features or experimentation.
It would be improved by some googly eyes.
But then, what wouldn’t?
The neighbors love me.
Good call. I have some old suede slippers sitting around that I was going to use for strops - but if there’s enough material I could use them for this. The bass I made it for contacts the spine at its metal neckplate, so that doesn’t need cushioning, but the body does.
I’m pretty happy with Pixels for the moment, so it’s a $5 USB-C to 1/8" dongle for me. That or the Pixel Buds I got for free as as promo with the phone. I’ve never had to charge and use the converter at the same time, but I believe there are cheap dongles that can do that too.
you are better off buying xiaomi/poco
If they have the cell bands you want in the US - which they don’t necessarily.
6.1 inches while still too large is actually usable.
That’s what she said.
If you’re into Aeropress and want to experiment, check out the Aeromatic app. It has dozens of recipes and uses a timer to step you through them. You’ll need a scale. It also tries to account for the grind size you get from your particular model of grinder. I’m not sure how accurate its compensation is, but it should get you in the ballpark.
Bloom is the grounds offgassing carbon dioxide. The darker the roast, the greater the bloom. When you’re brewing in a filter or a French press you can watch the grounds bubble up and expand as the gas is released.
Thanks. FWIW there are a couple of apps called Tuner on F-Droid. The one by Michael Moessner seems to be better maintained.
Unless you’re going the hand tool purist route, the table saw is IMO the central tool in the shop. It can rip, cross-cut, and cut joinery like dados and tenons. So you want a good one with a solid fence that won’t frustrate you. I haven’t been in the market for one in a while, so my suggestions will be out of date, but I’m sure others here can help you.
When you’re starting out you’ll probably be buying your wood S4S: surfaced four sides, so it’s smooth and pretty much ready to go. This is how all the wood at the big-box hardware stores comes. Wood from specialty dealers will come rough, and you can surface it yourself with the right tools ($$$) or have them do it for you for a fee ($).
It’s probably best to start with a project in mind, even if it’s shop shelving or something that doesn’t have to be heirloom-quality.
