Great idea, I should do this with my projects.

@Az_F has some experience, and you could probably pick up some stuff from his thread and from him personally, but I’m pretty sure he is quite busy at the moment.

Sargent and Greenleaf combo is a great lock with tight tolerances.
Good luck with that

working on the first wheel, i get the concept, and can clearly feel the contact points, but the right one doesn’t change, and the left one doesn’t seam to not show anything significant …

Its supposed to be a descent started lock, but the learning curve is steep … I might make a dialer before i figure it out by hand :grin:

If this has any legs at all, thorium might become one of the most export controlled minerals on the planet. In the midst of all this tariff trade war stuff, China is now controlling exports of various minerals and rare earths. I got this notice from a magnet vendor;

I’m also getting import export control requirements for almost everything now from almost every international source… shit’s getting weird yo.

Yeah I watched this yesterday. I feel like this guy went through so many unnecessary steps. Lots of his prototyping just seemed so out of the way to be difficult.

Like why bother using a material that you know has a melting point well below the surface you intend to use it on.

Although I applaud his voyage to attempt to keep it all in the states. I wish I could get PCBs made locally but as he said. China has the real skilled trades now.

During this tariff nonsense I looked at getting a could prototypes done here… 5 PCBs no larger than a credit card… $2,900.00. Sorry I’ll stay overseas on this one

His channel is called ā€œSmarter Every Dayā€ā€¦ so he probably started out pretty dumb… needs more days under his belt :wink: :wink:

I would hope the dude only did that ā€œfor the contentā€ … yeah.

OSHPark, they are American and somewhat more expensive than the Chinese manufacturers, but their quality is great. I’ve been using them for over a decade.

Seconding the OSHPark recommendation! I got PCBs from them for some research equipment; the turnaround time and prices were very reasonable, and their support team was helpful when I had questions.

Holy Moly, I did ask when I’d see a light but wasn’t expecting it to be this bright a day-ish in. Was about to take care of the ā€œwoundā€ and had to try my curiosity real quick. They’re blurry photos out of excitement and yeah :sweat_smile:

This thing is gonna glow hard once it’s healed and I’m loving it!

Smooth install! So that’s a glassie with ashes and glow?
Also I love how cigarettes look in low light photos

From what it felt like to me in the first version they sent, I dont think it’s glass, think it’s more like a resin? But of course, I could be mistaken, I just know it’s beautiful :sweat_smile:

But yes! Ashes and glow, held my flashlight against it for maybe 5 seconds?
