The number of PSAs about not getting mowed down during Halloween was absurd. 'Wear reflective vests', 'only cross the street in groups' - and not a single 'hey, it's Halloween and there's going to be excited kids everywhere - please avoid driving and if you have to, be super extra careful'.
My partner's idea, which I thought was brilliant, was that the speed limit on all residential streets should be dropped to 20km/h for the day.
Yep - I made the model.
I'm going to dig through the slicer file and see if there's anything wonky with the number of perimeters.
No infill, solid walls
Oh man these are a USB-C port away from perfection - I'm ordering one! The replacement parts including batteries is incredible. I mean, they're expensive as all hell but it should last pretty indefinitely.
*gah! $40USD to ship to Canada...
Planet Bike seems to have mostly disappeared from the Canadian market - their new Rojo 100 looks sweet though!
LOVE the SuperFlash! I've had several over the years. The new Rojo 100 seems almost perfect. Unfortunately Planet Bike products seem to have disappeared from Canada.
I love the Garmin idea - especially because they are local, but I really don't need the radar functionality. I don't even own a computer, I just use my (Garmin) watch for tracking rides.
The cygos are nice but are micro-USB which is a dying plug type - the only item I own that uses it is actually my shifters. Not a deal breaker though.
My brightness requirement is 'enough to be seen, not so much that other commuters hate me. It's all battery life. More or less everything works fine at first but I find that very few lights can even make it through one commute when it's cold. A typical day is about an hour and a half total.
I also just suck at remembering to charge my light at the office. I would love something that only needs charging once every few weeks but that means a battery life of at least 20 hours in the cold - and the ability to do that after a few years use.
Mind sorta blown - such a great explanation.
I'm reading The Last Emperox by John Scalzi. The series has some interesting concepts but while I really enjoyed Scalzi's sense of humour in the Old Man's War series, it doesn't land quite as consistently for me here. Regardless, it's definitely a fun read.
I think some people use a vacuum chamber and epoxy to stabilize the wood. I also wonder if soaking the biscuits in a mineral oil bath for a few days might do the trick? Personally I've never had much luck with larger pieces.
This reads like a train wreck start to finish.
