    • 2d blueprint symbols

      Along time ago someone posted a list of 2d blueprint symbols and appliances. I lost the file with a crash. Where can I find it?

    • RE: Minimum internal radius cutting bit for ply

      Feed rate and cut depth are what is important. It they feed rate is slowed a smaller diameter is possible.

    • RE: 20 Reasons for SketchUp artists to consider Blender

      Blender looks good BUT there doesn't seem to be a way to convert to quads that can be imported to Solidworks πŸ˜•

    • RE: Hot wire foam cutting - Anyone?

      The problem you will have that we couldn't overcome, was that the longer the wire the more it stretched as it got hot and sagged too much to be accurate. If you tighten it to much the heat caused the tinsel strength to drop and it would snap. Good luck!!

      Why SAS? But even then... where is the problem to boot from a M.2 drive? You would need an external SAS controller anyway with this board. I think i still don't get it.

      When I start a project I plan everything out. I put together the plan then built it. I couldn't afford to build it all at one time. I spent 4 months collecting parts, before the build πŸ˜‰ At the time of my "planing" this is what I saw:

      "SSD drives offer the best experience when they are used as the root or boot drive. The problem is that the existing Windows software has an issue with many drives booting from the PCI-Express bus rather than from SATA. This means that having an M.2 drive using PCI-Express while fast won't be the primary drive where the operating system or programs are installed. The result is a fast data drive but not the boot drive."

      You have to remember that I'm old, self taught, and what I deal with normally is wood 😳

      I don't understand... why would you need a modified BIOS and custom drivers?

      When I was looking, most of the larger drives were server based, and would not boot from them, or I had to buy an adapter - a spine. What ever. I wanted simplicity. Later I might go SAS and my drive would still work. What else would you do?

    • RE: Is a GPU upgrade worth it?

      Do you have room for 2 GPUs? If you do then I would go with a EVGA GeForce GTX 1080 Ti FTW3 GAMING, 11GB GDDR5X, made to run in dual mode later on (when you need another upgrade πŸ˜„

      Sorry, but why a SATA-SSD?

      It came down to a choice between SATA III standard and backup solutions or modifying bios and using custom drivers.... 😐
