    Porque no los dos?

    I’ve found that subs really dig it when you’ve machined your own spanky tools…

    Also, HAAS are some jank ass machines. Tiny ways, newer controls are glitter covered shit, they fucked up the remote handwheel…

    I had jokes. I still had jokes when I finally figured it out thanks to the comments. I don’t need another burner account. If I made my jokes, I would absolutely have another burner account.

    I’m not a bad person, I say bad things sometimes. I’m trying to be better.

    I find that aluminum is the best medium for trial and error because even though it is somewhat expensive, it’s easy on the bits. And that is important regardless of the bulk material costs.

      Dude your CNC sessions are totally out of hand if you are having to buying aluminum in bulk. Just get yourself some shibari ropes and a blind fold if you want to take your time and make it an extended session.

          It’s more blunt, but people who have been raped would point out that there’s a big difference between the sexual nature of consensual non consent, and the objectively violent nature of rape.

          It’s less that it’s less honest than that it’s more clear about what it is, and what it isn’t. It’s about what people think rape is about, and not what it actually is: angry, hateful and violent.

            Well I needed someone to explain consentual non consent to me because its not really logical, and I didnt need rape play explained to me, so there’s that. Seems sort of silly we needed a politically correct term for it in the first place.

              You do know that no one made them switch terms right? The people doing it and using the term decided to change it because it made it more clear when they were talking to each other.
              Since you hadn’t encountered the idea before, I don’t think they’re super concerned about their sex lives being easy to explain to you. Your opinion isn’t super relevant to other people’s sexual preferences or the words they use to talk about it to each other.

          It got ruined by anti-edgelord zoomers who put shit like “seggs” in their TikTok captions to prevent demonetization.

    The VF4 is a fantastic vertical-mill for any and all machinists! Step it up and maybe one day you’ll get yourself a JohnFord!

    They told me learning is fun

    They lied

    Imma head out

    I am SCARED, people, SCARED, I tell you. Good day to you!

      I had to noodle on this one for a while and ask around. I think, and this is only a guess, that this might be “consensual non-consent”, which is a role play of sexual assault.

      Ironically a few years back I was starting a project at work and was told one of the machines was a “miyano” I didn’t know what that was so I googled it… Entire first page of images was anime.

      Turns out it was a 12 axis lathe…

          Yeah it’s not something you program repeatedly though. You basically program once and hit a button and walk away and it will make hundreds to thousands of whatever.

          My understanding was you basically programmed it in steps. So like on step 1 operation on one bit, on other bit at same time run this operation and on third bit run this operation at same time. Now when all of those operations are complete move to step 2 and repeat.

          To make it more difficult there was also an automatic bar loader and a automatic bucket changer(it dumped the parts into buckets).

          Also to make it run fast you tried to balance each axis operations in a each step so no axis was ever stopped waiting for the other operations but you also had to stop them periodically to control heat and not break the bits since due to the products we were not allowed to use coolant.

          It took 3 senior engineers and 2 junior engineers 2 years to set it up to make 3 different products reliably. It was awesome when it eventually ran properly though.

          Well it had 3 bits from different directions that each moved in 4 axis(in/out, up/down, left right, spin) which could be used simultaneously and controlled independently.

      We don’t talk to police, we don’t make a peace bond.
      We don’t trust in the judicial system, we shoot guns.
      We rely on the streets though we do battle in the hood.
