This video was posted on the CNC forum. It is an amazing look at where things are headed. How long before there's a plug-in for Sketchup? http://www.youtube.com/user/QiPanCom.../0/vEOmzjImsVc

Published (2009-12-04 15:37:00)
You're absoluty right. That's exactly why it hasn't happened at my current job. I work for a very large company, and resumes that aren't immediately used get rejected, signed and straight into the file so we don't get sued.

Published (2009-12-04 22:52:00)
After some thought, for my next experiment I want to put something around the edge of the plywood to raise the edges a fraction of an inch. Over the face of the plywood, the canvas would be touching only along the edges. Canvas stretches when you draw on it so it would get pressed against the plywood temporarily as you drew. I need only enough clearance between the plywood and the canvas to keep the gesso from sticking them together. What I...

I tiled the shower ceiling at our other house. I put backer board up up on the walls and ceiling. I used 4 X 6 wall tiles, and matching 4 X 4 wall tiles for the ceiling so that the grout lines matched all around. No problem with it. The suction of the mastic held the tiles up fine. If you went with a heavy tile, then that might be a different situation, but I had no problem at all. Jim.

I did this once years ago and the results were disasterous. I went to an interview and the interviewer asked what I meant by a particular phrase and I could explain why I chose that wording because well, they weren't my words. I didn't get the job and I immediately re wrote my resume. I never was confused or challenged again about what was in my resume.

Imagine what a server farm like Industrial Light & Magic could do with this technology. Could put a lot of set builders out of work.
Architects could have a field day with this too. Video conferencing with a client, with the client able to manipulate the angle of the model.
How long until they have a version of this for Droid?

Try removing the fluid from the reservoir with a 'turkey baster' and refill with Marvel mystery oil. Run this for a few hundred miles and repeat this procedure but refill with Mobil1 synthetic ATF. Suck and refill with the ATF every 1000 miled or so until the quart of ATF is gone.

You can load it until you hear something break and then take off one or two bricks....
The load limits are the safe design loads for the vehicle. Overloading while it can be done, opens many doors you may not wish to enter. If you are overloaded and have an accident, guess who is liable....If your truck chassis warranty is still in effect guess what happens if you overload it...

I had the perfect answer until I read this.

Some goof balls on CL will not respond to emails. Might want to double check the posting and see if they listed a phone number. Barring that, I would hit their email a few times. If they're just lax about checking their email, then your multiple entries will stand out and they may call you first since you look like you mean business.

I'm setting up new home in NC (moving from NJ soon). The wire is dead for now as I'm only spending a week at a time there. I got the 3G bug from Verizon to stay connected and I love it. 5 gigs a month... I can't even begin to scratch that. I also don't do videos, movies, etc. With the 3G thingy, a virtual fax machine and a cell phone I'm thinking that I don't need any wires.
It's fast. I've ...

I'll be sharing this with numerous individuals...though I have to be selective as some of my friends don't handle multi- syllable words very well.

With my unit, once it picks up the GPS signals, it can sit anywhere. SOP is to power on the unit, place it on the dashboard for a couple minutes, then enter the address I'm looking for at a stop light and deposit in a cup holder. First thing I did was change the voice to Joanna Lumley's (Patsy from Absolutely Fabulous.)

Not that I know of. Round and Elongated are usually pretty "standard" and you choose the type for your toilet shape which is also round or elongated. I suppose there could be some brands that are, um...slightly deviated...in shape from others...

Mine has to be Christmas 1981. We had one Irish Setter, a boy, and my wife wanted a female to go with him. Not sure why, it wasn't for breeding purposes. We were renting at the time and a struggling young couple with finances. I convinced my wife that it just wasn't feasible to have a second dog. We would have to pay another pet deposit, the vet bills would double, the food bill would double...
