Cake day: July 1st, 2023


  • I worked with a guy who banned together with a few of his college friends and made a sort of communal maker space. They rented a space, each had their own area and supplied the space with various tools that the others could use. They would occasionally rent out space for someone to come make something using their tools and sometimes experience. This would subsidize the rent for them to have space in which they could do as they please.

    This is a relatively common practice within the art world (they were furniture makers/designers) but I don’t see why this wouldn’t be just as if not more productive with a bunch of engineers. I also have often seen companies grow out of such arrangements. You share a space, start working collaboratively, and before you know it you’ve got a shared product to sell.

    The other added benefit is there’s always someone around to help you unload, setup and be excited about that CNC you found.

    I have to disagree. While I really like the pants, their design, the fit and gussets, but they’re not even as durable as carhartts. I bought a pair of the original fire hose mostly because of the warranty (get a hole in the fire hose pants they’ll replace) Well I got a hole in the first couple months sliding between 2 walls. Small hole figured I’d just wear them out. A year later I buy another pair and a couple other styles. The next year the first pair are trashed worn through both double knees. They no longer honor their warranty The other pants lasted one more year. The flex fire hose, the waist band and belt loops just separated from the pants on both sides pulling them up one day. I thought the price was worth it with the warranty, too bad thats not a thing any more.

    I had a similar issue with a cat except 70% or his poops were also liquid.

    After maybe 2 years of trying stuff and vet appointments, We got a non chicken based dry food (pretty sure he has a sensitivity to it) occasional scoop of pumpkin and goats milk to keep his gut in balance. All available at the pet store, or Amazon.

    Been good for like 3 years now on the schedule.
