DocCynical posted:There is no rectifier. It's a dropper circuit with capacitors and a resistor. Uhhh, no there totally is:  It's hard to clearly make it out in the video, but that is what the 4-lead black component is. The only things I can clearly see on the board is that, a resistor, and 2 capacitors. I think there should be another resistor in there somewhere to make it a full capactive dropper + rectifier + smoothing capacitor setup, but either I'm not seeing it or that is the part where they cheaped out. I mean, this is probably still dangerous, but the video is just wrong.

There was a midlife upgrade to the OSHA solution too, using the forklift forks to pull down the lever on the container.

Rotacixe posted:Things What up, fellow paper industry slave. At work we recently had an employee fracture his foot by dropping a Supercalander roller on it. Two people were transporting a 4.5m wide and 30cm-ish in diameter roller from a flat bed truck outside to a cart inside a hall. They decided to use a forklift and a pair of slings to carry it inside. Using only a single fork of the forklift as a pivot point so that they could get it inside the narrow doors. As illustrated, not to scale. Not all of us can be artists:  Problem with this lifting method became evident as the strap on the fork slipped (as they had not put a bolt through the fork because they were in a hurry) and the cylinder dropped on the other guy's foot, shattering his metatarsus (and zeroing our new cool IT HAS BEEN XXX DAYS SINCE LAST ACCIDENT).

I can't believe that ship launch with the wooden shrapnel flying everywhere didn't end worse. The last frame of the video is like the car crash photo at the start of Rear Window.

Watching this makes me realize what I missed in the other video--that there is no plastic diffusing cover in front of that spotlight. I had (wrongly) assumed it had been taken off or something, and that the light wasn't being sold with a bare exposed PCA This was not a very good assumption on my part. Thanks, China!

Seems as though something like that going on underground would leave the upper layers structurally compromised. State fire crews don’t usually aggressively attack coal seam fires unless they threaten life or property. That’s because noxious gases and the potential for firefighters to fall into burning coal seams during a ground collapse make direct attack unsafe, officials say. http://www.adn.com/article/20160505/four-coal-seam-fires-burning-near-healy It would be a horrible way to die. You would be sucked into the ground surrounded by smouldering earth.

Seems as though something like that going on underground would leave the upper layers structurally compromised. It's absolutely possible. In the early days of the Centralia fire the ground collapsed underneath a 12-year old and he fell into a 50 m deep sinkhole. Fortunately the kid survived the fall and his cousin was around to pull him out before he suffocated from all the carbon monoxide in the sinkhole.

The tires hooked up. If you watch the slow mo part, you can see the exact moment when the tires gripped and the wheel sheered the bolts off. When you're running a poo poo ton of power in a dragster, you don't want the tires to hook up. It's almost backwards, as at lower powers you generally want grippy tires that will help you get a lot of power down on the road. But higher-powered cars actually want their tires to be constantly slipping, even just a little bit, otherwise you'll grenade the gear box or something else important (like shearing the bolts off your wheel.) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TZf9tXGPJNA Not the best video to show it off, but if you trawl YouTube for some slo-mo videos of Top Fuel and Funny Car launches you'll see what I mean. It's also why the cars can sometimes get squirrelly going in a straight line - one tire is slipping slightly less than the other.
