How old's the site? Chris' profile dates to July 6, 2000, so member numbers mustn't've been a day-one thing. Regardless, :bob: is now old enough to have a champagne flute in his empty hand. 🥂

The fox knows many things, but the hedgehog knows one big thing.The first batch of members were refugees from this site's predecessor and came from its mailing list. Member numbers were assigned alphabetically by first name so I am right after Ravi B. on the list. All of our accounts began on that same day in 2000. FWIW, Chris L. got #42.

He is the true meaning.

Yup. I've had separate home & work accounts since the beginning. My employer in their various incarnations has occasionally had odd notions about IP and what belongs to them, so my [few] CP articles were always written under the home account.

Yes, although I've always wondered about the legal enforceability of those sorts of things. Most employee agreements I've seen (including the two I've actually signed) are attempts to place you in durance vile[^] and are therefore largely insupportable.

Chris Losinger? I haven't seen him here in a long time.

I saw a post or two from him a few weeks ago.

Cool! I'm glad I'm not the only curmudgeon old fart still around.

Thanks! Just got off an 'interview'/ informal chat about why I applied for a role. Not great Google Teams wouldn't work, Zoom horrible echos not good. Playing with python...

I was amazed she couldn't call me on my mobile. The broad band keeps dropping so not good. I have the feeling that it was I can use this why can't you... Plus I asked a couple of questions to which the answer was "I will have to get someone technical to answer that"?

If you are not criticized, you may not be doing much.

I don't think that's right. I'm also from 6 Jul 2000, and my member number is 2094. But "J" is before "R", so it should be lower than yours (196)

Don't mention that. I have still all kinds of parts for my Eagle all over the desk.
I have lived with several Zen masters - all of them were cats. His last invention was an evil Lasagna. It didn't kill anyone, and it actually tasted pretty good.
I have projects like that. :-D You keep intending to put all the parts together but never find time...

At least I now have all parts of the model designed and printed now, except for the container in the middle. That container is going to be a brick of around 50 cm length and I can only fit it in precisely when I have assembled the rest of the model. And that's a lot of work because every part must be sanded to get rid of the printer's layer lines and then painted. The only thing I worry about is the stability of the model. It is going to be over 80 cm long and will only be held together by its 3D printed 'spine'. If it proves to be too weak, I will have to make a new version of it, where all the bars over the entire length will be replaced by carbon fiber rods. These don't break so easily.

Is the model your design or downloaded? Either way, you may be able to put a hollow cylinders down the centers of the spine beams and slide in metal rods for extra support? If the center span is 50cm, then the spine must be printed in several sections unless you have a large printer! I've used this technique to mount multiple monitors on my desk (printed cylinder with, in my case, 1/2 inch metal rod at core) and it's worked fine.
