Thank you for the primer! I find it very interesting and you've certainly given me plenty of things to research and learn more about.
I think my biggest goal is actually power stability but the cheaper power bill would be a welcome bonus. In my new shop the table saw seems to trip it's little built in circuit breaker a lot more often when it is cutting thick hardwood than it did in my old shop. Unless the blade is sharp as shit resawing on the table saw is a distant memory lol.
I think it's because the run from the road to the house main is a long run and then from the house main 60 amps is routed out to the shop which is another long run out to the shops breaker box. Then from there I use a 25 ft 12 awg extension cord to power the saw and dust collector via an automatic vacuum switch. The saw very rarely tripped at the old house when the total run from the road to the saw was less than 50 feet and I never did it any favors. But now that it is hundreds of feet away from the source I think the voltage drops off and it over heats and trips the sawstops little breaker.
I hope that made sense, I'm a carpenter not an electrician lol. What I think I need is a battery set up for the shop that acts like a giant Uninterruptible Power Supply to combat the "dirty" power and put the saw closer to the source. The ability to power a hybrid solar/dehumidifier kiln in the future from the shop without sacrificing power reliability would also be something I would want to consider.
I recently got a bluetti for off grid onsite work and it has awoken something in me. It's like carrying a wall outlet around with you, absolutely incredible.
Needless to say I think I have caught the bug. Where would you point a feller who wanted to walk your path and learn more?
14 by Peter Clines is phenomenal and right up your alley. It is the first of a series and I think the second one is best and 3rd one is completely optional to read as far as the over arching plot.
Could be fungal discoloration from being eaten by bugs. Might look for worm or bug damage in/around that dark spot to confirm. Wood can also turn that color when in contact with metal for a long time, but I'm pretty sure that's fungus. Should be fine to use as a walking stick as long as it's not soft and spongey at that spot.
It says here that the Treason Slush Fund was scrapped for being politically toxic, but I could have swore I saw something about the Senate putting it back in there yesterday.
I think there used to be a stigma on leaking unreleased games because of the increased chance of drawing a corporations litigious attention. But I also think there has been a shift recently in public perception of these corporations leading to a more aggressive fuck you attitude and apathy regarding repercussions. Which I'm all for. I hope corporations like WB/discovery, EA, and Ubisoft never see a profit from a video game again.
Oak would be a good species to try and bend but other than that I can only say good luck!
If the curve is ultimately not manageable with steam bending consider taking a look at kerf cut bending. I've never attempted it but when using a tapered router bit the kerf cuts should almost disappear when the curve is glued.
To the shock of absolutely no one who has been paying attention.
Mmm schadenfreude

Thank you again for the write up on your setup!

My wife was a Keep freak and I was able to get her to switch over to Jotty. It is self hosted though.
Wow! Not the one I thought it would be

I don't understand how anyone could hate on the home of Friendliness, Warmth, and Sharing. Such a wholesome, wonderful community.

Long Way to a Small Angry Planet is an incredible book by her. Highly recommend.
Holy fuck is the Supreme Court is dropping this on a Wednesday then what the fuck are we in store for Friday?!
Wow. My grandmother was a rivet girl in California. She put the rivets in the wing sections of the P38s* and was always proud of that fact.
Edit: P82 to P38
