1,400. wood - soft, temperamental, messy

2. 6061-T6 - the workhorse. decent yield for when you need it

@redbullfuturist curious how BAP isn’t there

@innovatorlaw @2112Power @jimbelosic SCS provides DFM I think there is more going on here

@andrewmccalip Submitted a PR to implement wind moment against righting moment on the stability chart. This could be useful in understanding A) Parasitic impact of wind on batteries B) Maximum wind speed and C) actual incidence angle of solar panels as function of wind over time

@GremlinIndustry but then your plate bows!

@broblas the forbidden compatibility-hammer. it’s no wonder it was everywhere a hundred years ago

@andrewmccalip i desperately need more context on the doge-fin

@minousoft yes, an ancient material called chalk on another one named blackboard

@_baldtires there is actually

more info here:

@robirwinengr true actually

it's MY job to make the machinists angry

you shouldn’t (can’t) have a factor of safety or margin of safety on deformation, it has to be a quantity of magnitude. this should be applied to things like yield or ultimate stress i tend to think this also applies to deflection, but in simple cases is probably possible

@Xaraphim These are called LIMs or LSMs depending on the design
