Great idea!
Now I’m picturing a series, where communities come to their local men’s shed* with a problem which is then solved - or not, but the really interesting thing is the process & dynamics.

* (and by the way, some men’s sheds I know have transformed or evolved into ‘community sheds’ - even tho still dominated by males, who tend to have more of these woodworking, metalworking, machinery skills)

Sasanian military helmets reveal advanced brass technology across the Persian Empire

Ancient Persian metalworkers worked with brass far earlier and in far more varied ways than researchers once thought. A new study of metal artifacts from the Sasanian Empire shows brass in jewelry, fittings, and military helmets between the 4th and 7th centuries CE...

Almost anyone in the scene knows chastity cages - the flats ones are especially popular. Most of them come with a (boring) urethra plug that can be screwed into the front plate.

But what if we could do more?
Custom-made, turned from medical-grade V4A stainless steel, polished and reamed (hah!) to a 3.1mm through-hole diameter.
I can produce any outer diameter <= 12mm (or I would need to order larger stock), and any length <= 100mm. The number of bumps is customizable, as well as the difference between the main diameter and the bump diameter.

And for even more fun: With a custom extended plug, any other toy can be attached to the front of the cage via an M6 thread. In this case a FunFactory silicon dildo into which I glued a captive M6 nut with silicon adhesive.

Want one? Ping me and we can discuss details 😃

Mi sto documentando sulle staffe di fissaggio, quelle che i machinists chiamano "Angle Plates".

Ovviamente di dimensioni esagerate, ma almeno vedo bene i dettagli, poi ridurrò in base al materiale di recupero che trovo.

Però il pezzo che sta lavorando io lo avrei messo piatto sulla tavola della fresatrice per evitare di perder tempo andando a caccia di vibrazioni… e voi?

Tried using this frame and some sun shade fabric on one of my raised beds and was pretty happy with how the design worked until some really heavy winds blew it over and bent up one of the legs late last season

Dragged it back to the shop this morning, sawed off the bent leg and welded on a new one. Good as new

My welding skills are such that I advise against driving over any bridges I may have worked on, but I can stick a couple pieces of rebar together just fine
