Is he planning on moving to Iran, or some military, or Turkish Cargo? Not a lot of people flying 310s these days.

No idea. Just doing what I was asked to do. :sweat_smile:

Tell your costumer to make available the files, i may have someone interested locally

My dog scratches the window when he wants in. We’ve finally just removed all the screens from the windows near the door he goes in/out of.

My cats do this same thing! LOL They have a dog door to use but would rather bug me to open the main doors for them.

We got our old drafty windows replaced a few years ago, so had to do new shades. We went with insulated black-out shades in the bedrooms. Our cats have the habit of trying to push them sideways, and of course the largest window is the one they insist on tearing up. It still works fine but the edge looks horrible. Since we know we’ll be selling the house someday, we’ve bought a replacement shade and it’s hanging out in its box in the ceiling joists of the workshop. It’s not going up until we’ve got open houses and the cats are elsewhere.

We don’t have animal doors to the outside world. Too many bad experiences with animals bringing ‘things’ into the house late at night. Rabbits make a god-awful noise when they’re running for their lives at 2AM.

Possum reanimated around then climbed the curtains and ended up in the fish tank. It’s a lot of cleanup at 4. AM

My dog got sprayed by a skunk last weekend at 1 AM. She got in the house and rubbed all over the couch. Fun times.

I just have four kids so I have all of the above without any skunks or possums… :smiley:

You at least have a chance of them outgrowing the problems. At least the dog door

Many years ago at Molex we had an absolutely worthless “Corporate” engineering group called Advance Development. Never developed anything, never made anything, never were accountable for anything etc. but the one thing that they did come out with was we had a Chemist Paul Krehbaum (sp) that because his dog got sprayed came to work and analyzed what skunk spray was an how to neutralize it. Worth googling. Very effective I used it sadly way too many times with our last dog.

If I remember baking soda and peroxide?

I just used AI

In the early 1990s, chemist

Paul Krebaum, an employee at the electronics companyMolex, devised an effective home remedy to neutralize skunk spray. He initially created the solution to eliminate persistent odors from a chemical compound called thiols in his laboratory. He later adapted the formula for a colleague whose pet was sprayed by a skunk.”

Yea, except we didn’t have any peroxide at 1 in the morning. Fortunately, there’s almost no smell left.

BTW I’m afraid came across perhaps sounding mean. Did not mean it that way as the people in the group were actually pretty nice folks. It really was our corporate management that was at fault.

Eventually we dissolved the group and I was able to take them into our division.

Loved the meme :slight_smile: Pixelated to mask how I was intensely shaking the bush to drop trimmings. “Trim Reaper” seems to be my loosely related Halloween CNC project.

Thank you for the feedback @DougJoseph, totally agree. Made bunch of changes, learnt a bunch about editing, and learned I still don’t know much.

Been making coffee table. customer gave me theses 2 pieces and said make us a coffee table

was challenge to get slab to balance on base ,

trial of what poly carb would look like

cut a 12mm polycard base with LR4 to stop trunk from rolling due to cantilever of slab

finished the base with a G30 gloss to highlight the detail

got 8mm plate laser cut to support slab.

hand routed bottom of slab to recess plate which is 19 kg and it was 2k painted black

due to crappy phone, photos below don’t show the true depth and gloss of the finish

photos are before i buffed it

there is 12 coats of 2k high build timber sealer . applied 3 coats at a time than sanded and than finished with 6 coats 2 k clear, ended up having to buff clear due to couple bits of dust , normally don’t polish clear as it highlights grains etc better unpolished

forgot to take photos with it finished and assembled at customer
