02:27:36 <watcher> Hello
02:29:17 <rc_garage> HELLO!!!!!!
02:29:22 <steve30> o/
02:30:45 <watcher> rc_garage: Did you got the work done on the c4?
02:32:00 <rc_garage> eh, just a little bit. I have half of the thing shaped, and tacked into place.
02:32:43 <rc_garage> I also had a walk to the store, to pick up its brake caliper, so. that took some time
02:34:26 <rc_garage> for some reason, the panel i need, is not easy to find around here, i can get it from england, on ebay, or go to poland and pick one up, but i will just make something that ill do
02:41:02 <rc_garage> so, ie, the bottom of this car will be like a peugeot, from now on. it is a much simpler shape
02:46:02 <K> baguette!
02:47:53 <rc_garage> pretty close
02:47:56 <watcher> Hello K
02:48:11 <K> aye.

02:53:42 <EEVBot> [url] 20260601 111909(1)(1) hosted at ImgBB — ImgBB | ibb.co
02:53:58 <Nothing\> finally got these bastards out
02:54:46 <Nothing\> they even let me keep them lol https://i.ibb.co/VYMVgssG/20260601-123510.jpg
02:54:52 <Nothing\> 33 in total
02:54:57 <steve30> lol
02:55:23 <Nothing\> it's weird how they're crimped, I wonder how the remover deals with that
02:55:34 <steve30> how do they even insert those?
02:57:39 <Nothing\> i have no clue!
02:57:43 <Nothing\> https://i.ibb.co/JjRHVjZC/20260601-112103.jpg
02:58:03 <Nothing\> the remover gives them that W shape, but they're crimped almost like normal staples in the skin
02:58:37 <steve30> ah, i thought they were the W shape when they were inserted
02:59:26 <Nothing\> i guess i could see if the remover puts pressure on the center while pulling the edges up would straighten out the crimp and give it that W shape
02:59:39 <Nothing\> haha so did I when I first saw them
03:00:03 <Nothing\> and they're really not as big as you would expect
03:00:34 <Nothing\> oh and fyi, they are non-ferromagnetic
03:00:39 <Nothing\> so... titanium?
03:01:00 <Nothing\> i wonder how I could test for that
03:01:50 <rc_garage> they are either stainless (probably) or titanium. but I doubt they would use titanium for surface stuff like that
03:01:58 <Nothing\> i guess silver might work. I'm not aware of it being used in implants, but I know it makes a terrific anti-microbial
03:02:11 <Nothing\> rc_garage, not stainless if they aren't magnetic
03:02:26 <Nothing\> but that was my thought, too
03:02:28 <rc_garage> uh, yes
03:02:47 <Nothing\> yes what?
03:02:53 <rc_garage> there are many many kinds of stainless
03:03:09 <Nothing\> not ones that aren't ferromagnetic
03:03:14 <rc_garage> many are not magnetic, some turn magnetic if you bend it, and so on
03:03:19 <Nothing\> they all contain >95% iron
03:03:28 <Nothing\> even 5% carbon is a lot
03:03:41 <rc_garage> i dont care, you can not stick it to a magnet
03:04:06 <Nothing\> and even this chunk of natural hematite I have is weakly attracted to magnets
03:04:21 <Nothing\> and taht's just oxide
03:04:45 <rc_garage> 304 and 316 are in general not magnetic.
03:05:04 <Nothing\> ahaha lol
03:05:11 <Nothing\> i JUST read about 304 as you said that
03:05:26 <Nothing\> so yes, i take that back, stand corrected and concede that you are right
03:05:35 <rc_garage> well, duh, lol
03:05:38 * Nothing\ bows to his superior
03:05:54 <Nothing\> it just seems counterintuitive
03:06:14 <Nothing\> but i forgot there's more to steel than just carbon
03:06:20 <rc_garage> https://www.reddit.com/r/explainlikeimfive/comments/obezt3/eli5_why_is_some_stainless_steel_magnetic_and/
03:06:40 <Nothing\> i know this
03:07:00 <Nothing\> because the magnetic domains don't line up under the influence of a magnetic field
03:07:07 <Nothing\> no, wait
03:07:14 <Nothing\> it's miraclse
03:07:19 <Nothing\> miracles
03:07:35 <rc_garage> nope, it is just the way it is
03:07:51 <rc_garage> no one has made wine out of stainless yet
03:07:52 <Nothing\> that's right, I forgot Insane Clown Posse's famous lecture about the mechanisms behind magnetism
03:08:03 <rc_garage> oh wow
03:08:52 <Nothing\> heh these staples in this one x-ray looks like they implanted a heating element into my shoulder
03:09:08 <Nothing\> i almost thought it was wire at first
