    Windex to clean, let it dry for a bit, then a layer of gluestick has always worked for me, as long as the bed heats to 60°C for printing. The z offset has to be a bit different for PETG than PLA, which can be a bit tricky. I think (been a whole since I've printed PETG) it had to be a bit higher than PLA, so it wouldn't "squish" as much as PLA. Seemed a bit counterintuitive, but it solved most of my problems

    I'd agree with router before a drill press, miter saw, bandsaw, and a jointer. However, for simple furniture projects, I'd argue a planer is the second most important tool behind a table saw. You can use a planer with a sled for face jointing, and a table saw sled for edge jointing. Yes, you need a router for edge profiles, but not for dead simple tables and cabinets.

    Exceptionally versatile tool, and necessary to take you to the next level, but not more important than a planer.

    A router is at the top of my list for "nice to have, adds a lot of value, but not absolutely necessary for basic projects" tools. I still don't have a router table after 6 years, just a Makita plunge router that I got for $100. Great tool, but not 100% necessary if you're just trying to make basic tables and such.

    People will complain about any number of tools. "THIS GUY HAS $10K IN TOOLS, MINIMUM, NO ONE CAN DO THIS PROJECT WITHOUT ALL THOSE TOOLS!!!1!"

    Ignoring the fact that while that particular shop has expensive tools, nobody (sane) goes out and drops all that money at once. Most woodworking projects only need a table saw, a planer, a cordless drill, an orbital sander, glue, sandpaper and finish.

    All of the tools can be found cheap on Facebook marketplace, Craigslist, OfferUp, yard sales, or estate sales/auctions.

    • Table saw: I ran with a DeWalt job site saw for years before my wife talked me into getting a saw stop. $350 new, or ~$100 used. You can also find used contractor saws for $300 on a regular basis on the aforementioned platforms.

    • Planer: I used a shitty lunchbox planer for years that I saved from a dumpster with some 3D printed gears that I designed. I bought a used tank of a planer (still only 12", but 230V and weighs about two of me) for $200. You don't need a jointer. Make a jointer sled for your planer and a jointer sled for your table saw. Takes longer, but I still used the planer sled for boards that don't fit on my jointer.

    • Cordless drill: Ryobi has a drill and driver combo for around $100, or get a DeWalt for $60. Or scrape the bottom of the barrel for Harbor Freight that'll get you by for a bit for $20

    • Random orbit sander: I used a $14 one from Walmart for years until my hands started hurting after using it. $100 for a new Makita one, can be found for $50 or less used.

    • Sandpaper: $12 for a massive pack on Amazon

    • Glue: $10 for a medium sized bottle of Titebond II

    • Drill bits: $5 at harbor freight

    Woodworking isn't a cheap hobby, but you can get into it with used tools and some restoration work. People love to nitpick shit, and it gets old seeing the same defeatist mentality of people talking themselves out of even trying it.

    Space is the only thing you need, but even then, I started on a 5'x5' apartment balcony in Florida, and used an uninsulated, unpowered 9'x16' shed in Alaska for several years.

    No problem! They worked great for me for a few years in Alaska, highly recommend them for snow or wet areas. They make insulated ones, but I never had an issue with the uninsulated ones if I doubled up on socks.

    You will, however, get some weird looks if you wear them in an airport outside of the PNW

    Patriot's defense is solid. Ours is average at best, and Fangio put Kader Kohou on Diggs instead of playing slot corner where he's good. Allen is overrated and a big ole crybaby removed that whines for a flag every time a defender comes within 5 yards of him

    My joints hurt. I'm around 30, and I beat the shit out of my body through my late teens-mid twenties. My joints feel like they're about 20 years older than the rest of me some days. Fun experiences for the most part, but I'm paying for those minor injuries piling up over the years.

    My wife had a D&C after a miscarriage earlier this year. Luckily, our state isn't as shitty as others, but the surgery was still labeled an abortion, and they made her answer a bunch of questions like it was a choice and not that our baby was dead for a month before the 12 week ultrasound. And the shitheel front desk woman lied to us and said that no one could be back there with her (obviously not in surgery, but I wasn't even able to be back in the waiting area with her pre or post op), because that woman was a religious fruitcake and "didn't agree with the procedure"

    We raised some serious hell after finding that out and took it up through their patient advocate. It went up to the hospitals board and they issued an apology, which meant fuck all, and I think that woman was fired.

    I don't understand why people want to be involved in anyone else's lives. I get it if you personally don't agree with abortions, but that's your choice. You don't get the right to decide what someone else does with their own fucking body. The kicker is that most people don't even realize that a D&C after a miscarriage is the same exact procedure and is classified the same. Excuse the fuck out of me if I don't want my wife to die from sepsis or have to sit around for another 1-2 months with a dead fetus inside of her waiting for it to possibly discharge naturally. That whole experience was awful enough and she wanted it to be over as soon as possible.

    Fuck your religious beliefs. Apply them to yourself, no one else should bend over to appease your stupid sky fairy bullshit.

    If the recess isn't exactly the depth of available plywood, unless you have a plunge router and are comfortable making a sled to route the recess slightly deeper, this might be a more difficult job than anticipated. Veneer would be more doable because they're super thin

    On the off chance that you're actually open to hearing any kind of criticism, sure:

    1. You made a post on a small forum about an objectively obscure topic, seemingly with the expectation that people would understand an acronym for that obscure topic.
    2. Numerous comments essentially asked "what the fuck does that even mean?"
    3. When faced with an opportunity to introduce more people to this obscure topic with some modicum of grace, you instead made what appeared to be a sarcastic, disparaging comment that people should obviously just know what you're talking about.
    4. When called out for #3, you decided that everyone in this thread clearly hated the obscure topic that none of them had even heard of, rather than realizing that people reacted poorly to your poorly disguised arrogance and pretentious comments.

    Had my first dogfight and successful piracy

    Had my first dogfight a few days ago. I was scouting in a Cutty Black for my friend when he went to sell some illegal cargo on Daymar, and spotted a Hull A heading to the sell point. Naturally, I launched a bunch of missiles and finished him off with lasers. My buddy jumped in, sold his cargo, and I started to head back to ArcCorp to do my own thing. After I finished my first jump, he told me someone was attacking him in a Warden (I think), so I turned around. My buddy had already launched a bunch of missiles and was trying to escape. I fired another 8 missiles, charged in guns blazing, and blew the guy up. Turns out it was the same guy coming back for revenge. Very fun encounter, and the guy was a good sport about it. Ended up getting a decent chunk of cargo off the Hull A and had a great time. I've been running cargo in my Cutty or a rented Connie, or ROC mining for the last couple weeks, so this was a fun change of pace

    Best random orbital sander that's not Festool?

    I've been using a crappy random orbit sander from Walmart for the past 5 years. It works well enough, but as I've gotten a bit older, had a few more non-woodworking related injuries, etc, the excessive vibration is really starting to get to me. I know Festool is the gold standard in terms of dust control and likely vibration, but are there any other good options that aren't $500-600? I'm sitting here after sanding for an hour and a half or so and my hand is still tingling after 20 minutes. Clearly, I need to get a better sander, but I can't justify spending $575 on a Festool sander right now. $50-150 would be more palatable, as long as it is a clear upgrade from my current setup. Edit:[Ended up getting this Makita sander ](https://www.homedepot.com/p/Makita-3-Amp-5-in-Corded-Variable-Speed-Random-Orbital-Sander-with-Dust-Bag-BO5041/205671780?g_store=4653&source=shoppingads&locale=en-US&&mtc=SHOPPING-BF-CDP-GGL-D25T-025_009_PORT_POWER-NA-Multi-NA-SMART-NA-NA-NA-NA-NBR-NA-NA-NA-PortPower&cm_mmc=SHOPPING-BF-CDP-GGL-D25T-025_009_PORT_POWER-NA-Multi-NA-SMART-NA-NA-NA-NA-NBR-NA-NA-NA-PortPower-71700000106625794-58700008274559054-92700076261262909&gclid=Cj0KCQjwqNqkBhDlARIsAFaxvwwCA5XKpwfKmZkkXTcKf44_lKBSqvgjRLxLugo1PzHAIKc9sW-1EKYaAuKmEALw_wcB&gclsrc=aw.ds).
