    Search for RAMPA brand inserts. Those are the ones that the dude from Blacktail Studios use, and that dude works with very heavy tables/slabs.

    I kinda like those legs, but they are very modern looking. Are you leaving the slab as it is in that picture? If so I kind of dig the rustic look of the slab with modern legs.

    I don't think I saw a single woman in the trailer. This might actually be good.

    Drugs to steer clear of

    No, I buy from Happy Hippo. The packaging makes kratom seem much more exciting than it really is. https://happyhippo.com/

    It's the absolute worst. It's the point where I often stall out and start taking forever to finish projects, but it's also the part that makes such a massive difference in the finish. I find listening to a good audio book helps lessen the suicidal thoughts.

    Drugs to steer clear of

    I take Kratom every day. I love it. I will certainly not say that it's completely safe or "just kratom", but I only do the ground leaves. Every single horror story I've heard about kratom is on extracts(like OP's first post in this thread) or people eating like 150 grams of the powder a day. I...

    What vehicle do you drive?

    I ordered a set of AST adjustable springs and some spacers(18mm back / 15mm front), which cleans up the fitment on the wheels really nice on the M2. I'll probably do these myself, as it's a pretty simple install, though I'll have to get an alignment somewhere as I don't know shit about...

    My wife and I enjoyed it. A bit retarded at times, but fun for the most part. I'll check out a second season.

    What vehicle do you drive?

    From what I've read most suggest not going higher than 500 lb-ft on the stock manual, though it doesn't look like too many people are having problems on the higher range of that. I think the manual is around 405 lb ft stock at 473hp. I will probably end up pushing up against the 500 lb-ft on the...

    What vehicle do you drive?

    Looks like 2025 production is complete on the M2, so I got one of the first 2026 allocations. Delivery should still be around October. Been watching a bunch of videos on the ECU unlocks they do for these and are getting like 600 hp at the wheels on the tune alone. Need to talk myself out of this...

    What vehicle do you drive?

    This does look better, but I'd rather just suffer the stock look and not worry about having to paint match the psycho green color I ordered. I think the only mod I'm going with initially is a little carbon fiber spoiler to match the CF roof. Maybe this by Adro.

    3d Printing and the Future of Piracy

    This is about all it's good for, visuals. The ones with any kind of ferrous material that oxidizes can look pretty cool, but it doesn't do anything for strength and needs a hardened nozzle. Would destroy copper ones.

    What vehicle do you drive?

    I really didn't like the G87 M2 when it came out a couple years ago. I much preferred the first gen body, but it's kind of grown on me at this point. I dig the flared out rear fenders a lot, though I do not like the front end still. Looks...smooshed. That said, the options for smaller, fun and...

    Well I figured I would make one more bad financial decision before I hit 50. Just got an allocation for new 2025 M2 build.

    I was going to do a similar thing, but just ended up doing a hanging liquor cabinet with some drawers. I shared it in this thread a couple years ago I believe. After trying a few different things for the folding down part, I felt like I couldn't really do it as sturdy as I wanted without buying...

    Metalworking Thread (aka Haus indulging his inner mountain dwarf)

    Came out really well for a first draft! Where did you get the flask/mold frame that you're using? I've done some stuff with the petrabond, but I made a not very good wooden frame that probably ain't gonna hold up to much repeated work.

    My only suggestions on tools is to buy them as you need them and not before. If you end up really getting into it, then you can't beat a real shop table saw.

    3d Printing and the Future of Piracy

    If that HT-PLA is genuinely that resistant to heat while being as easy/friendly to print as PLA, that's going to be the go to filament for almost everything. Is it not out yet or are they already sold out? None of the colors available on their site as of now.

    This is awesome. Can't wait to see the finished product. I did some pretty basic metal casting not too long ago. I 3D printed some numbers, then took a bunch of copper pipes that my sister had ripped out of her new house when they remodeled it. I cast her house numbers in copper and then put...

    Yeah, I've completely disassembled my AMS like 5 times now because of little filament bit getting stuck in one of the bowden tubes. Really wish they made those paths easily accessible.

    Honestly, I think starting out with an Ender or anything similar(Creality CR10 was my first printer) makes you appreciate just how good the Bambu systems are. If the Bambu was someone's first printer, they are pretty misleading in how most Chinese printers are. I think I spent more time leveling...

    Here's something I built this week, which I think falls into the "useful" category. Built a new NAS for my network and 3D printed the case for it. This model is designed really well. Went together perfectly and has a lot of modularity/customizing you can do. I did this in ABS...
