22:18 MrCurious something tempting about that
22:21 GuShH but how do they work!?
22:24 GuShH MrCurious: aside from insert magnets on wood and metal projects... what use do those have?
22:24 GuShH people "build" things?
22:24 GuShH lego for 'tards?
22:24 MrCurious great for hall effect encoders?
22:26 GuShH yes, but what do you use the other 240-ish for?
22:26 GuShH I wonder if cats would get interested in magnets

22:34 robotustra_ printed 2 parts of neck

22:43 Hyratel *screaming while the nurses laugh at the entire situation*
22:44 MrCurious i would say i am surprised they have not been turned into sex toys, but i suspect i may have just activated rule 34
22:44 Hyratel what, supermagnets?
22:44 Hyratel that was his "ER story of the month"
22:44 MrCurious rule 34... not to be toyed with

22:49 rgantuaSauce plugs a large solenoid into m
22:50 MrCurious i have this mexican palm in my front yard. it has 2 seed pods, about 2k seeds
22:50 MrCurious was pondering how evil it would be to create a air gun to distribute those seeds late at night
22:50 MrCurious as it is an EVIL weed if not plucked very fast
22:51 GuShH mexican plants?
22:51 GuShH oh noes
22:51 GuShH do they wear silly hats and shoot rusty revolvers?
22:53 MrCurious no, but the palm fronds have teeth
22:53 MrCurious and they poop shitloads of seeds
22:53 robotustra_ have to sourse some M3 bolts

22:54 MrCurious 1.70 per stepper controler
22:54 robotustra_ is it for your RAMP 1.40 board?

22:57 GargantuaSauce think they're local to you
22:58 ShH just heads to the hardware store ins
22:58 GargantuaSauce i dont have a local source that isn't awful
22:58 GuShH lotta neat things to look at while they go through your list, like big one inch HSS bits!
22:58 GargantuaSauce none of the hardware stores stock metric stuff
22:58 GargantuaSauce and fastenal is stupidly expensive
22:58 GuShH fastanal
22:58 GargantuaSauce and have poor metric selection anyway
22:59 GuShH meh
22:59 GuShH it's the same for non metric stuff here, don't worry
