Always a good idea even if you are swapping the old mobo for one that is the exact same model.

Yes sir. I donā€™t have all that much to do since I keep my desktop on another drive and the npoint windows to it. Also keep my documents and pictures directly in the clod and point windows to those as well. I do have a few databases I have to prep and back up though.

Thatā€™s what you did, right? I would like to know how, being a meatbag kinda sucksā€¦

Years ago I built a cnc plasma cutter. I was planning to move and wanted to set up a business around it. Two weeks after I moved, but before I could move the machine, meth heads broke in, stole parts of it, broke stuff. Lots of stuff.

Then the 12ft tall 20 ft wide shop door got knocked off itā€™s track, the track got knocked off the wall, things bent, cables snapped. CRAP!

Basically, I abandoned it. Broken, not accesible, no place to put it. Frankly I was pretty disgusted with the whole deal, and just had no taste to deal with it.

But, time has passed.

Iā€™ve spent the last two days rebuilding the door so I could get it drug out. Iā€™m super psyched (and exhausted) to be taking it home so I can start repairs.

Processing: 20220619_192029.jpgā€¦

Soon, soon it will be in the shop and on the road to full funcionality.

I install and repair overhead doors, and use plasma cutters on the daily, even used a 20ā€™x40ā€™ plasma cutter at a previous job. Let me know if you need any help! And congrats on getting it going again after some ass hats ruined shit!

V1 in right knife edge for a few months, then self installed v2 the other night in left knife edge, but then it popped out and I quickly reloaded to install to L1 while everything was still sterile besides body fluids lol

Thats metal. It looks super clean, is it comfy, and hows the sensation?

Canā€™t complain with it. Though I donā€™t have any experience with it or any other magnet in other locations. Sensing for microwave has been absolutely fun, but other than that, not much. Though for screws, itā€™s been pretty practical at work, and also at home searching for a fallen laptop screw thatā€™s hiding in the carpet lol

Iā€™m hoping with the v2, I can start pulling welding rods out of a tube at work. Every time I need a new rod, just wave my hand and bring it to me XD

I second this. Saw your pictures of install with blood all up in the syringe, which looked worrisome. The 48hr pic looks very clean though. Looks like it should heal up nicely.

The blood is from 10 minutes of trying to get the bevel of the needle through my knifes edge. I tried my hardest, but couldnā€™t get the needle to poke through enough. Thought I did, and injected the magnet, but then it popped out, so I quickly reloaded and went for my back up location which didnā€™t bleed at all. Lol

I was in Kansas on my phone. My phone is kinda stupid some times.

Anywho,
Some of these have been on here before, butā€¦

Video of the machine one of the few times it ran. Making parts for itā€™s own table.

Completed table pic.

The much sadder picture, loaded for transport.

And, because itā€™s harvest time in Kansas. A picture of a vast wheat field with a faraway combine.

Look at the picture on the trailer. Youā€™ll see a white box on one leg of the machine. Thereā€™s three wires poking out. Thatā€™s where the meth heads cut the Cat5 cables off to (assumably) steal the copper. You know, instead of just unplugging them. Donā€™t do meth, kids. Meth is bad. Brain will rot.

Totally not cyborg-related at all, but festival season is getting closer, so I started some last-minute-hot-glue-gun-fun to make a nice little hairclip to accompany one of my outfits. :octopus:

Taking into consideration that it was the first time I actually used a glue gun, Iā€™m quite happy with the result :wink:

I canā€™t even see where the glue is. Looks great!
