I have a pretty decent tolerance eating spicy food. It is everything that happens that night I have issue with.

Damnit. Messed up my countersink dimension. Also pulled the part off too early and it warped a little.

What are you making again?

Building an adjustable mount for a piece of equipment at work. These will be the mount bases with the plate with the controls attached to the top. There will be guide plates with a captive sprung pin to keep it indexed in a position. Just doing initial work now, if we like it it will be simplified for production. Final pieces will be machined delrin.

The company that made the gauge from the other day has now sent me two defective OBD splitters, and I'm quite disappointed. Might be time to have someone just hardwire my dashcam into the fuse box or battery instead of depending on using the OBD.

I’ve been using a cheap one off amazon for a few years. Maybe try there.

very mixed feelings tonight... tonight just happened to be our family dinner night where all us siblings get together at my parents house for pizza, and to watch the nephews terrorize, well, everything, and fight over that one specific toy the other one wants to play with.

my estranged brother decided tonight was the perfect time to stop by and make demands on my parents. apparently it is now unacceptable to drive down their street, and we are to now demand that any and every family friend or acquaintance that ever asks about how that brother is doing is to call him directly, and we are to make no mention of the fiasco that is his life choices.

apparently he hasn't created enough of a mess lately that he's got to mess more stuff up just to feel good about himself...

but we had a good night otherwise. my other brother and i tried a hand at making the pizza this time(due to the parents being preoccupied, normally it's my mom's deal to make the pizza), and it turned out edible even!

I'm lucky enough to not have any sibling drama but my in-laws have this kind of thing going on.

The real question is whether you made pizza, or "pizza".

The whole reason I decided not to get one from amazon was because I thought a company capable of designing and building specialized gauges would be capable of selling splitters they have confidence in :P.

Could just be a bad batch, though.

Sorry to hear it's messy like that. Glad you were able to make a good pizza! The nice thing about pizzas is that even if you somewhat mess them up, they're usually tasty regardless .

My family kinda had the reverse issue for the longest time. My mom was the estranged one from her brothers and parents. Eventually my grandparents came around, and for the most part the brothers have now as well. Definitely wasn't easy for her though, and some of her other relatives still aren't friendly.

Oh well.

and it's part of the reason i'm open about it. the more i talk to people openly about it, the more i find that it's not as obscure of a situation as i've always believed. don't make it any less wrong, but comfort in numbers i guess. it's just petty grade school crap. i'm glad you don't have to deal with it.



the pizza turned out great! my mom offered to give up her position making pizza from now on, i'm just not sure i want to make the commitment to it!

I was mostly asking about whether it was thin or deep dish lol

[soundman98]

our preference is thin crust. i think my mom got us on it mostly because it's cheaper to make in terms of bulk ingredients.

but she does use the gino's east pizza makers, so deep dish is possible!
