Forged in FreeCAD: CERN CMS Detector Cable Clamps
In case it passed you by, over on our mastodon account and on the X platform we have run the hashtag #FreeCADFriday for a long time. It's a straightforward "show everyone what you are up to with FreeCAD" type affair and every week so many amazing projects show up as responses.

Tutorial: Getting Started With the SheetMetal Workbench
FreeCAD is excellent in that it can be used for design projects for all manner of fabrication approaches. A really interesting fabrication approach is cutting, bending and joining sheet metal. As such FreeCAD has a dedicated addon workbench that’s incredibly helpful in designing for flat sheet materials. #CAD #CAM #MetalWork #Fabrication

Hello people! I've been on the Fediverse for couple of years now, so here's my re-#introduction

I'm Ari, better known by my tag APZ and this is my #pinball repair, #arcade and #retrogaming account. I mostly post about playing and repairing pinball machines, but I also work on #retrocomputing with all the classics.

An IT guy by day, I moonlight as a pinball arcade owner here in #finland with my partner @quester. This is purely a hobby of mine, I do this to keep my sanity and to keep pinball alive for the next generations of players. At the moment I own a bit over 30 pinball machines from 70s to 2020s.

A lot of what I do involves #electronics, #CAD for now obsolete parts and #3dprinting and tabletop #cnc to recreate them.

I love to #travel, usually to meet like-minded arcade collectors. I have a strong preference to #repair stuff instead of throwing it away. I'm a #linux user since mid-90s, having been part of #foss movement most of my life. I also edit arcade related videos.

¿Te sientes más segurx o más vigiladx?

Guayaquil está llena de cámaras, drones y patrullas. Se han invertido
56,1 millones de dólares en un sistema que todo lo ve.
Pero, ¿quién vigila al vigilante?

👁️‍Tu rostro, tus movimientos, tu identidad: todo está siendo registrado.
¿Diste tu consentimiento? ¿Sabes qué hacen con esos datos?

A pesar de tanta vigilancia, la delincuencia sigue.
Entonces, ¿Se está resolviendo algo realmente?

Desde el Centro de Autonomía Digital (CAD) creemos que la seguridad no
debería costarte tu privacidad.

Exige transparencia.
Exige consentimiento.
Exige un sistema que te proteja sin invadirte.

¿Seguridad o vigilancia sin límites?

I'm thinking today about disaster account recovery. My master password is literally the key to my entire digital presence, and I want to make a little box for safe, secret storage.

Question for you #CAD #design #3DPrinting and #engineering folks - how would you design a tamper-evident little box that you load once and can tell if it's been opened before? What mechanism could you use if it was 3D printed? I know serial'd stickers and zip ties exist, I'm hoping for a DIY makeable solution.

Hard to believe Santa Clara didn't already have a Micro Center store. 3 decent man-on-the-street Linux advocates interviewed.

I Tried To Find Linux Users At Micro Center

At the opening of the Santa Clara Micro Center Adam went around asking people if they were Linux users to answer the question: is 2025 (finally) the year of Linux?
