One that size would probably weigh 250-300lbs, and be a 4-person lift. Last one of those I did, I came away with some nice welts/bruising from where she slapped the poo poo out of my leg. Here’s an example of one from last year (we had 4 that we found like this): You guys are awesome, thank you. If Fromsoft made an OSHA Soulsborne this would be a mid to late game area.

It wasn't any kind of full thickness and it only took a little while to heal but I still have scars from it. I've got a scar on each forearm just from a regular electric home oven. managed never to burn myself on the electric kiln, partly bc I don't gently caress with anything in there until it's down to like 300F

So help me continue to understand this gasoline vapour thing: It becomes more dangerous the longer you leave poured gasoline, because it evaporates and the vapours can cause a larger ignition? Is there a relatively safe way to use gasoline to start an outdoor fire? Last time I was at the cottage, we poured a few ounces into an empty beer can and put it in the center of the fire pit (throwing matches and lit kindling into it to get it ignited), because the logs were too wet to catch with tinder and kindling alone and we didn't have any lighter fluid. If we had left the gas in the beer can for a while, would the vapours have accumulated enough to be a serious hazard?

you just need to use very little gas, and do everything possible to decant some then place it, not spill any on you, ignite it remotely, and have the rest of the gas nowhere near the area. but really gas is explosive and that's why it sucks to start fires with, you need lighter fluid or something else.

The safest way to start a fire with gasoline is to use kerosene or diesel instead. Gasoline fumes mixed with air is a bomb, that seeps into every nook and cranny prior to detonation.

also if the gas can catches on fire, put it down gently instead of flailing it around to try and shake the flame out.

wolrah posted:Also alarm fatigue. Once you have enough equipment moving around in a given area it's just constant beeping from all directions and people start to tune it out, at which point you lose the benefit while still keeping the ear piercing (sometimes actually to a dangerous level) noise. That's why the new thing is directional white noise reverse signals. They don't carry as far as the sine wave beep, so aren't creating as much of a hearing hazard / noise pollution, and they can be directional, so if you can hear one loudly, you know for sure you're in the way of the thing reversing.

Remember, gasoline is fuel for internal combustion engines. ICE work by creating little explosions in controlled areas and using the resulting force to shove a piston down. Gasoline is designed to explode when mixed with air and ignited. Every one of those bonfire accidents are because people pour way too much gasoline on something and let it sit. At that point it's a fuel air bomb waiting to go off.

I think it’s also easier to tell which direction the white noise sound is coming from vs a beep?

If you take half a beer can, fill it with gas, put that under your wood (beer can and all) and ignite it, you’ll probably be ok because only the vapor evaporating off the liquid will ignite, and there is relatively little surface area for evaporation to occur. If you take that same half beer can of gas and dump it all in your fire pit or on the wood itself on a hot summer day and then go get a fresh cold one before you ignite the backyard bonfire, you might have a bad time.

Mr. Nice! posted:Remember, gasoline is fuel for internal combustion engines. ICE work by creating little explosions in controlled areas and using the resulting force to shove a piston down. Gasoline is designed to explode when mixed with air and ignited. The phenomenon in the video is pretty much the same as detonation or "knock" in an engine. When the fuel and air ignites, it catches fire and expands rapidly. The fire makes it hot. The expansion makes the pressure increase. A property of this is that if there is enough heat and pressure, it can ignite without fire. Just outside the flame front, the edge of the fire, there can be another spontaneous ignition, which causes another ignition, and another and another until the whole thing ignites in an instant. And that's how the ignition becomes an explosion. Counter intuitively a rich fuel condition, more gasoline vapors, reduces the risk of detonation. A lean fuel condition, less gasoline vapors, increases the risk of detonation. Engines control the amount of fuel and air in the engine to control the ignition and prevent detonation. You can't really control the amount of air and fuel in a bonfire, even if it's in a small can, so good luck.

Exactly what we did. I wasn't waiting to start that fire as it was cold and damp out. Seen enough videos of gas cans on fire to know at least to separate the act of pouring from that of lighting, but I'm glad the 'not waiting' part worked out too. Salami Surgeon posted:The phenomenon in the video is pretty much the same as detonation or "knock" in an engine. Thanks, this is the part that I was having trouble wrapping my head around. I'm familiar with why gas in an engine effectively needs to be atomized by the carb or injector for ideal combustion, but the idea of an explosion in the open air was unclear until now. Fuel-air bombs make much more sense too, thanks Atticus.

Gasoline is designed to explode when mixed with air and ignited. Its also good to think that a gallon of gas has enough energy to push a 2000-3000 pound car 30-40 miles at highway speeds. Be careful with it!

MrQwerty posted:metal as gently caress, literally and figuratively The camera will dial down at the brightest light source, making everything else around look like nighttime. If you’ve ever shot a flash-assisted photo indoors during the day, the flash will usually defeat sunlight & any windows in the background will be blacked out, as though its were nighttime. It’s a technical issue photographers//DPs deal with in film all of the time.

And this is while burning it in an engine that wastes about four‐fifths of the energy as heat. In your campfire, it’s all going to heat and light and hopefully not a shockwave.

PainterofCrap posted:The camera will dial down at the brightest light source, making everything else around look like nighttime. Also if that was an outdoor shot, a lot of foundries and furnaces run at night since electricity is cheaper then. And when you're using enough electricity to melt several tons of metal down you're going to want the cheapest power around. But mainly as you said it's the digital camera trying to adjust the light to the point there's actually enough contrast to see what's going on while there's poo poo glowing bright as gently caress all around.
