@sportdrink Why does a powder cost more per serving than most other packaged drinks?

@10_X_eng Be careful. Starts with a single node for fun then next thing you know you’re attaching a 3ft 915mhz antenna on your roof and looking for a radio tower to mount a repeater on so you can setup an off grid solar powered communications system for your friends and family.

@GREAT_CNC How much is it?

@i2cjak Why does USB only go in on the third try? Do the first 2 tries just lubricate the port?

[Mike @mito]

@hunterlanier Nice. What did you end up using for the blades?

[Mike @mito]

@macjshiggins The worst is when they ignore your questions and just spam videos of their product or factory and follow a set sales script.

Just give me a price if you want to make a sale.

@hunterlanier I’ve considered designing a cutter that uses standard utility knife blades but haven’t gotten around to it yet. Cheap, sharp, and thinner than any cigar cutter blade I’ve seen.

@SkinnyfatTony @digitalspaz Stop telling everyone about bidspotter until I’m done shopping. Thanks.

@AI_in_LEO @0xJirachi I have the $300 drill press. It’s not rigid enough to drill a straight hole let alone mill something.

[Mike @mito]

@DeveloperHarris 3200k should be the upper limit.

@10_X_eng Have a 30 year old Robodrill on the way to start building bigger and better things.

Reindustrialization starts with a mini machine tool in the garage (and nicotine).

[Mike @mito]

@10_X_eng Waiting for equipment to arrive but building will commence soon.

@SkinnyfatTony @emmajo Creates opportunities for newcomers when the robots sell for pennies on the dollar at auction. Eventually the economy will bounce back even stronger. Never considered robots before but I plan on picking some up at auction to start learning.

@hunterlanier Just picked up a 1996 Robodrill to start.

Manufacturing X, do any of you know a reliable trucking company or broker who can ship a Robodrill from Athol, MA (Starrett factory) to Los Angeles, CA?
