Sounds like me like "yer gon' hear next" but my family's men are notorious for mumbling, so my ears are pretty keen to sussing out the subtle sounds. /shrug

My opinion:



You'll spend way more than a new barrel's price in tools and labor trying to polish and coax that barrel into being something it wasn't meant to be, than it'll ever be worth, which...

Done.

It's been a backburner 'want' for a while anyway.

The Simpsons predicted a lot of stuff 10 years before it happened, too. That's what happens when you ramble on endlessly. You get lucky. Even a blind squirrel... as the saying goes.

If I were a...

A huge part of our business has historically been tied up in automated fixturing and welding of light and heavy-duty vehicle exhaust for the biggest Tier One folk.

I keep hearing that we're...

Right, for what I've seen, it looks like many organizations are choosing to certify a process, and then use that process for different shapes and final parts. Destructive testing of those final...

Irrelevant old man tilts at windmills, says we didn't have enough natural gas, not mentioning that the natural gas was shut down too?

Yawn.

I'm not sure how Texas gets to separate itself from...

I've read a fair few papers on the results of different gas mixes in Wire-DED. I have been using 90/10 lately but I've also used 85/15. Only mixes, no straight Argon. That's one variable I haven't...

I haven't gotten far enough to dabble with the stress relief steps.

We have a Romer Arm with a laser scanner among our inspection tools, so once I do, I will DEFINITELY be taking some...

For sure there would be cheaper ways to do this. The robot is part of a unit we sell, here, as we do automation solutions, with our biggest expertise being welding. We have a unit we keep around...

Funny, when I lived in Louisiana, folks from there and Texas, they all said the same thing. High gas prices is the best thing for the economy and jobs, they'd tell you.

Using a MIG welder (Miller's RMD process right now) on a robot.

Porosity of the weld isn't an issue so far. The only issue so far is geometry that results in a complete fusion/overlap in all...

Oh give me a break. This is STILL pretty low gas prices. Are we not remembering how we somehow didn't all die a terrible death when gas was $4/gal?

How is $0.20 difference somehow going to make...

I'm definitely not a Biden lover, but:

President Joseph R. Biden, Jr. Approves Texas Emergency Declaration | The White House

White House Says Biden Offered Texas Governor More Federal Disaster...

I dunno, I see more boomers and xoomers posting stupid memes over celebrity pictures than anyone. The number of times I see movie scenes with quotes, alleged John Wayne attributed phrases... all...

You sound like someone who has little idea what it takes to get a company up and going and making ammunition.

In the last 15 years, I've seen lots of ammo startups. Some began with a guy making...

Though I'm pretty new to using Fusion like this, I had been working with a couple Autodesk techs when seeking information about DED projects, and was asked if I could put together a video showing...

Or the difference between not professing allegiance to a man, rather than allegiance to a country and government or to an organization.

I love it when they get so butthurt when people react and respond to crap like that.

How dare they have to suffer the consequences of their own actions!

Yea, I couldn't figure out how to attach a decent sized picture.

Here's the original size of the one I uploaded before. You can see the line of pores where I ran out of gas real well....

My understanding of current molten salt reactor designs is that one of the biggest benefit is because there are no RODS to speak of, as we typically think of and maybe imagine Homer Simpson handling....

There's no fuel rods in a salt reactor. Get with the times.

Otherwise, yea, sure, when properly cased and stored it's no big deal.

If people weren't so butthurt about the myths of nuclear energy, we'd have the greenest energy without failures right now.

Also, getting snow in winter doesn't somehow negate the reality of an...

Shirley serious target shooters also wouldn't be buying up cheap bulk Winchester white box shit for this purpose either. That makes sense if we're talking about some better Aguila and CCI stuff...

The ammo shortage that spiked after Sandy Hook was the first I noticed a real churn for .22lr. It made no sense other than people wanting to buy lots of ammo, and that's what they could afford and...
