I'm sorry, was there a question?
 
nope, just sharing resources for those that might find it useful
 
No worries - there is a fine line between sharing a great site and spam.
What would be cool is if you'd write something about what you are sharing -- tell us how you found it useful and why anyone should care.

Presumably you have some reason for thinking that some people reading PF in particular might find this particular program useful? You are too bashful - speak up :)

Remember: google et al indexes your posts by what you write in them - so when you write descriptively about what you share, people looking for a 3D modelling program who have similar needs that you do will find it. Free and Open Source software relies on this kind of WoM marketing so let's make it good.
 
Posted June 2024 - 15 years after starting this class. I have learned a whole lot. To get to the short course on making your stock car, late model, hobby stock E-mod handle, look at the index below. Read all posts on Roll Center, Jacking effect and Why does car drive straight to the wall when I gas it? Also read You really have two race cars. This will cover 90% of problems you have. Simply put, the car pushes going in and is loose coming out. You do not have enuff downforce on the right...
I'm trying to decide what size and type of galvanized steel I need for 2 cantilever extensions. The cantilever is 5 ft. The space between the two cantilever arms is a 17 ft Gap the center 7 ft of the 17 ft Gap we'll need to Bear approximately 17,000 lb spread evenly from the front of the cantilever to the back of the cantilever over 5 ft. I will put support beams across these cantilever arms to support the load evenly
Thread 'What's the most likely cause for this carbon seal crack?'
We have a molded carbon graphite seal that is used in an inline axial piston, variable displacement hydraulic pump. One of our customers reported that, when using the “A” parts in the past, they only needed to replace them due to normal wear. However, after switching to our parts, the replacement cycle seems to be much shorter due to “broken” or “cracked” failures. This issue was identified after hydraulic fluid leakage was observed. According to their records, the same problem has occurred...
