Sometimes, when designing for 3d printing, you have to remember to try turning things 45 degrees. I was making this mounting bracket, which will be held down by a carriage bolt (so there is a square part beneath the round head of the bolt). I moved it off to the side to not get the overhang when printing, but then I remembered to just turn the square hole 45 degrees and it would print in the cente

My parents have a nice shower, with a separate waterfall head. You would think this has three controls - water flow, temperature, and a switch for the power head.
In this case they have two pressable rotary encoders and 4 buttons, all to get a worse interface. The top one is temperature, the bottom flow, but it doesn't go down to "off". Instead you need to press the top encoder to turn it in. They

A question for Fedi.
I was recently on a project where I was troubleshooting an electrical system on an industrial vehicle, so DC powered (with the - connected to the chassis). We had a lot of hard to trace problems, e.g. plugging in one s…
