Re: I'm baaaaaackkkkk!!!!

Does 7 years of intermittent rambling and inactivity qualify me for the title of "old guard"? :D

Re: Is spudding dead?

I come around here every few weeks or so but I haven't built anything spudding related in eons. Initially, I was driven to spudding due to my inability to own actual firearms due to my status as a minor. Ever since I turned 18, I've been shifting most of my focus towards my undergraduate studies as ...

Re: Once a Spudder, Always a Spudder

I still pop in once in a while, still love reading the quality posts on here. I'm currently an undergrad Mech Eng student so I'm usually pretty busy with that....I did however go half in on a mini lathe with a friend so we'll see how this goes :D.

Old memories of ohh we want nerf stuff... we want nerf stuff.... nevermind now! :roll:
Perhaps we've matured enough as a forum to realize how lame nerf guns are :lol:

Re: WhatsApp spudfiles chat ?

Maybe I'm a bit behind the times, but the smallest screen I currently own is a 17" laptop. ;) How about just using a public jabber server ? And I've got a flip phone from 2009! :D The chat we have now works as a chat but it's just so easy to miss people. I'd say it's partly because we're pretty wel...

Re: "Offtopic-posts-topic" NSFW

There's not a lot in my price range (~$600NZD) to choose from in terms of DSLRs, slightly better for mirrorless cameras. The best choices in that range would be a Sony NEX-5R or Alpha A5000 I think. For DSLRS, it's pretty much only the 600D and D3200/5300 (or slightly different models, e.g. 650D). ...

Re: "Offtopic-posts-topic" NSFW

My brother has the former and the video function really didn't impress me. If you move too fast (not very fast at all), everything's a blur. It takes for ever to focus and is pretty bad at focussing while recording. Your brother has a t4i or t5i, the t3i does not have video autofocus. In all honest...

Re: "Offtopic-posts-topic" NSFW

Well, it's offical I'm finally getting a mini lathe! I've been wanting one for ages, and can now afford one now that i've sold off my DSLR. Expect more posts from me, very soon :D What model? I've been so close lately to just getting the "$500" Harbor Freight (here in the U.S. at least) 7x12 that e...

Not to kill the flow of the Gun-Control argument, but I'd just like to point out we are on page 420. Hehehehe.

I miss talking to my spudfiles buddies. :(
Damn the resources! I simply desire old flashchat, that chat has a huge nostalgia value that imo. I miss talking in the chat as well.

Re: "Offtopic-posts-topic" NSFW

Damn I miss the good old days.... 2006-2010 time period to be more exact - seems that most progress was done then. Now it's all stagnant. Most senior users spend time having pointless discussions in this thread (lol including me). Same, however with college and a heavy course load it's relatively h...
