I do mostly CNC lathe programming and operating. I don't get to spend much time on the mills. The majority of the parts I make are for Roush Racing. The most notable parts I have programmed and ran for them to date were 10" diameter track simulation hubs made from 7075 aluminum. I would someday like to make performance and dress up parts for Subaru and other makes of vehicles. I have made a few items and sold them here on the club.

Ya, there are a lot of areas that are poorly designed, either because they are done piece-meal, with no over-all plan, or are designed by planners or engineers, with little design experience.

Also, the priorities of the planners/designer change over time. Neighborhoods designed prior to the 1920-30's were designed for pedestrians and horse and carriage. In the post-war period, to the mid-1980's, the automobile was king, which made pedestrian movement next to impossible. Recently there has been a movement to build pedestrian friendly neighborhoods again, but this means they are less car friendly.

nhibbert, are there lots of traffic circles out in Toronto? I sure do hate those! Well, I don't hate them when I know they are coming but sometimes when an unexpected traffic circle hits me I get a little stressed out. Seems like such a great spot for a collision. Do you use them often in your designs?

nhibbert
02-09-2004, 04:05 PM
They’re becoming more popular again. We've recently used them in new residential neighborhoods as a 'traffic calming' feature. But, until a few years ago there were none. The main problem with them is people don't know the proper turning circle etiquette. In Europe they work great because everyone knows how to use them.

I think Denver (or is it Boulder) is the traffic circle capital of North America.

^^^ Cool, and neat name. My wife is an astrophysicist working mainly on extrasolar planets.

What's going on with the space station? It seems to be over budget and behind schedule, yet now we hear these wild plans for a moon base and trip to Mars.

spacenut999
02-25-2004, 06:03 PM
Not to hijack the thread...but things are slow as a result of Columbia. We actually have time to catch up since we were behind schedule. As far as over budget goes...It's hard to put a price tag on something that's never been built before, plus if we asked for enough money Congress would never give it to us.

02-25-2004, 08:45 PM
Fair enough, but the ISS does seem to have achieved less than expected at a higher cost than expected. It just makes me wonder what the moon base or Mars trip would end up costing in the end. (I tend to think it would be better to leave space exploration to robots and not bother sending people.)

spacenut999
02-25-2004, 10:02 PM
I think more money is wasted developing and stockpiling weapons we will never use. The TOTAL NASA budget is less than one percent of the federal budget. Although ISS has not yet achieved many of its goals, it is a result of not having sufficient funding. That leaves the maximum station occupancy at 3 not the 7 people it was designed to operate under. Currently very little time is available for scientific research since most of the crew time is spent maintaining the station.

As far as sending people to our moon or Mars, I fully support that effort. Although I know people could perform better at those locations than robots could, I cannot say the scientific benefits outweigh the risks.
