开云体育I don’t think too many here mind the occasional off-topic question that is somewhat tangential to lathe or making/fixing stuff. ? Asking what star system the aliens who build the pyramids came from, yeah not so much. ? As far as your questions “plastic” is a bit broad.? For acrylic, PVC, ABS etc a solvent will work, eg acetone or MEK.? Otherwise use an epoxy. ? You don’t glue stained glass.? There’s 2 types of stained glass, leaded and foil.? For leaded you use putty or grout to stop the glass rattling.? On the old days for foil bees wax was used, these days you use adhesive backed copper tape so no need once everything is soldered.? (Unless you meant what sort of glass, and that’s usually the typical 3mm stuff.) ? Tony ? (Disclaimer – I use acrylic a lot, and used to do stained glass.? I’ve been meaning to do some acrylic “stained glass” panels.)

开云体育Tony, ? I agree that the occasional off-topic question tangential to making or fixing stuff can be both useful and educational.? ? Years ago, the ?preferred solvent for fusing acrylic used to be Ethylene Dichloride (EDC).? It makes joints that are nearly invisible, but has been found to be excessively toxic and harmful to humans, so is no longer recommended for that use.? ? If you want to “glue” glass, clear silicone rubber works well if the surface is very clean. ? Jerry F. ? From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Tony Smith via groups.io

If you really think such a group would be popular, start one!
?
Be advised, without intelligent moderation, a group will degenerate into unusable chaos. The old 7x10 group is a classic example of why moderation is needed. From my perspective, the moderators seem to allow brief, shop related discussions that can help many folks.
?
BTW,? Posting in all caps is the same as shouting at the dinner table, not something done in polite company.

I like ??

I like using?OFF SUBJECT?in first part title. So any one looking at the updates any do not want to read off subject they can just skip it and goto next line.?
?
The balance act for Moderator is?
1) Now getting a lot off subject the moderator I start to brings back subject. 2) At same if no question ? on lathes. Then you let go for better days. Waiting for lathe questions to keep group living.?

The LIKE feature is of very little value - IMHO Here is what the User manual for says: Using the Like featureSimilar to social media apps and websites, 开云体育 has a feature allowing group members to indicate that they like messages that are posted to the group. You can use either of these methods to like a group message:
So - only if you look at the message on the site will you see the like count. In searching the last 700 messages, I never saw more than 1 person liking on any message. A more important feature, again IMHO, is the Mute This Topic link that you will see at the bottom of the message. On Mon, Jan 6, 2025 at 12:07?PM mike allen via <animal=[email protected]> wrote:

It a balance of on subject and off subject.? Off subject can keep a group a live in slow times.?
1) It more how far off subject.
2) I think the title should say OS or? O.S. for off subject.?
This any does read about off subject they can skip it.
3) The what is on subject only talk about mini lathes or mills or projects maybe even using the lathe for anything.??
?
It nice if could have two threads here one for on subject and one off subject.
?
Best opinion is in tilte say OS or? O.S.

I ran across your Aloris milling Attachment on different site nice work?
