  • It’s part of NPR’s ‘My Hero’ series where listeners call in and talk about someone who helped them out and they don’t know their name but wanna say thanks. I heard this one while driving home last night.

    This woman was overloading her car with 1500 lbs [680 kg] of gravel. She had concrete being poured at her house so was short on time. A guy offered to take the gravel in his truck. He dropped it off and left and she’s saying thanks because she never got his name.

    He reminded her of her dad who has passed way. Opposite of cursed I’d say





  • There’s a professor and his research group at university of Michigan that does compliant mechanisms that u could check out if they’ve got something. It was a while ago that I applied there so possible he moved but still worth a check.

    I’ve never used freecad as I’ve always had access to a cad program thru either school or work. One option that’s not free is to join a maker space that has better cad programs or just torrent. But you’re definitely in need of FEA for the bistable part
