Kerbal Space Program, my one true love.

I’ve got a few games with 100-300 hours of playtime, but KSP is EASILY in the thousands, I wouldn’t be surprised if I’m over 10,000.

And before you ask, no, I’m not an expert, most of my rockets are named either “1.4.2.A.1(b)[rev. 5.0]” or “bendy fuckstick 9000 (mun)”

There are some small cracks across the grain in that piece, but i figure if they were a big problem, it would’ve manifested sometime in the last 50 years, so I’m not terribly concerned

Yeah it is

So you have it forcibly memorized too? Nice nice

Lol yes we’ve got a toddler and infant, dusty just claims all their stuff

Love it

Quality sex accessories of any kind are stupid expensive

Bingo. What bush did that rock come from? Not a clue, but that’s $2000 in glass and/or body work to repair

Yeah I know, but with the standoff out provides, it could either be used from concealment or just give enough time to outrun them, which is not particularly difficult

I’m gonna get a slingshot, so i can dent door panels and shatter windows/windshields from a good distance away without the possibility of it being considered lethal force

I also want to dent cybertrucks

Anhedonia roast pork

But it’s crucial for bimetalic strips around the world

Things don’t need to be necessary to exist, interesting is enough

Even if it isn’t to you, it is to me, which i wanted to share with people in case they might also find it interesting

^example i pulled from Google

So, fyi my degree is in ecology, but my understanding is that local inconsistencies in temperature cause areas of uneven heating, so I’m certain areas the liquid is moving up, causing it to move down in adjacent areas that are cooler, which sets up little circular currents. The distribution of them, though, is pretty random.

The visible bits are just the gunk that’s always on the bottom of cider jugs

Of course, this is all very hypothetical. I’m prepared for all the wood to be useless junk, just planning for ideal circumstances

I’m really not gonna know if this is anything but a pipe dream until the tree removal company cuts into it. For all I know it’s rotted all to hell and is worthless

But if it isn’t, what an opportunity. To take a tree from my backyard and turn it into a hopefully gorgeous workbench. That’s a dream come true

1. I don’t know the moisture content, it’s already mostly dead, just standing.
2. it’s ten feet from my house, logs will be stacked and milled in the driveway after the crane takes them out of the backyard
3. fair point about the pith, that was kind of what I was getting at with the question, so thanks
4. of course you’re right, for the same reason plywood is so dimensionally stable. BUT, theres a few other factors I’m considering

First, cool factor. I just kinda like the idea of just a few massive hunks of wood stuck together into a table. Appeals to the caveman brain

Second, actually practical, laminating the top basically quadruples the surface area id have to get square and true, and since I’m likely doing this all by hand, that’s like two months of work right there, I’ve got a one year-old bumbling around here
