Comment on Just up the production quality and they'll love it, Trust me bro š

The CNC and electronics in general are just hobbies that feed into other hobbies (who doesnāt love robots???), and the vault door was a photo from a dear old friend who works construction and knows of my love for the retro-industrial aesthetic!
(Very curious where the idea Iām in a cabin came from, I think all my posts have been from when I was living in my regular boring old house!)

Like combat robots?
The wood workbench for the CNC cabinet sorta looks hand built and cabin like, and then the rest has a sort of background firewatch sorta older home aesthetic that made me think Cabin. The angles also made it look smaller/like it had less rooms than a house would, and things like the bar you were hanging off of also seemed a bit strange to just be in a regular house (like who just has a horizontal bar running from one side of an indiscriminate room to another sort of thing).
In hindsight I can see it being a house but thats what made me think it.
And now you live in a boat off the coast of Costa Rica like many other digital nomads (Is what I am guessing based on this and the software developer part).

Antweight, yep! Though in this case I just meant I own a lot of manufacturing robots.

What type of bot/s do you have/are you planning to build? Meta vert spinner? Meat and potatoes horizontal? Control bot? Entirely too technical and expensive to be practical at antweight flipper?
Like industrial ārip your hand off without bogging downā arms or ?? and why?
That sounds like the least coincidental thing possible considering they canāt exactly be used for anything else can they?
Everyone wants the coveted silicon valley stress for 5 years then retire and coast off your resume position dont they.

Ah no I just meant it was a coincidence that when I said robots, referring to my milling machines, you guessed one of the main things I do with them (combat robots). I do technically own an arm, but itās just a small 2.5-axis tray placing arm, everything else I have is just various flavors of CNC or 3D printing equipment. And as to why I own them: Iām really bad with money and my autistic hyperfocus is robots. IDK man theyāre just cool.
Is there really a difference between a vert spinner and an antweight flipper? The answer is a beaterbar spinner, but my local group plays with an arena floor that isnāt flat so the meta has really been shifting towards control bots because theyāre the least reliant on clearance for success (looking at you, wedgebots. Looking at you with scorn in my gaze). But Iāve been messing around with a hammerspinner design that Iām really hoping will bring back the carnage!
Turns out those jobs are really hard to get, damnitā¦
