SpudFiles

I'd link to Encyclopedia Dramatica, but the ads can be a little "distracting", it's a most excellent site though.

It's very informative about computer games, the definition of Resident Evil 4 & 5 was spot on.

not off-topic, but not deserving of its own thread:

I've been looking at some accessories for my ratary tool, This in particular caught my eye, what do y'all think? would it be very useful for spudding?

I got one of those recently. It is VERY handy for machining aluminum but you should be aware that the accuracy is absolutely terrible. Even with small drill bits, the entire thing will flex and end up all over the place. I really do like mine but do not plan any precision work.

I'm not making jewelry, art, or precision parts; I just need something steady for making a few crude, custom parts

It should work for crude parts but I would advise messing around on a piece of scrap first to get an idea of how it flexes. Also beware the "crowsnest"; The telescoping aluminum that serves as the backbone to the stand will collapse at the least opportune time if you are fiddling with power cord and drive your hand into any drill bits you happen to store there.I got a drill bit snapped off inside of by hand because of that.

Nice! Although you'll have to point out the HE clips because I thought I saw mostly flash (although I'm not an expert at this at all).

Hang on, isn't there some rule that says all compilation videos of explodey type things have to be set to the 1812 overture?

with some more effort you could turn it into adecent beat

JSR- thats awesome! haha highlight of my day so far..

Were you going for thermobaric on any of those videos? I believe I saw someone acheive actual detonation and film it with an ex-f1...

Almost makes me wish I had my EX-f1 again

Okay, I was under the impression that they were the same thing.

Regarding the fuel/air device, I honestly can't see it being that hard. I mean, set off one with a SCR and capacitor, 555 timer delay, set off the other.

With high speed video, one should be able to be correct the first time.

Watching the video makes it clear that the burst charge was too small as the resulting fireball was both too rich and ignited too early. For a proper FAE, the fuel needed more air mixed and a little later ignition. With the proper dispersion gasoline works fine and is able to propagate a pressure wave.

A proper pressure wave looks like this on high speed;

Edit video is starting to be posted from Japan.. Wow!
