Also....a 220 volt motor. @2-4amps should be more than enough to power the thing (400-2000 watts depending on your design) Or it needs to be powered by some sort of foot peddle like an old fashioned thread spinner for really out there places with zero electricity. In the USA we have 120...

Oh, for the shuttle, Consider a modified comb for a type of track for the shuttle to ride on. And if you can prototype it....make about 5 of the final prototype. Then the injection molding is NOT that expensive.

There used to be a LOT of them during the industrial revolution. Weaving machines are prone to having the shuttle jam the machine. Cams for the changing front threads and springs to pull them back. Running two threads at a time for the shuttles. (Tensioners for all threads) Am I correct...

Woah woah woah.... Stop.the.presses. You are uniquely you and designed by God to be you. Don't try to be someone that you aren't. (I wouldn't wish for that either) All that God wants is for you to be unashamedly his kid. If you can manage that....you will have won the race for the prize...

Why wear one? Why not wear one? Are we broadcasting our identity? Or Are we broadcasting a hoped for identity? Fashion statement? Just for reference....a cross is not pleasant. It's a "death by torture" device. Not exactly humanity's finest hour. But you can't easily make an empty grave...

Only a FEW people are noted in scripture with having skills directly attributed by God's direct teaching and providence. The guy who built the Ark of the Covenant and his apprentice. (I'm forgetting their names but I remember their story) The 12 Apostles. Notwithstanding those who wrote...

Ummmm You are not really teaching....that's the part that nobody really wants to hear but you might find relief in that as you explain basics of sewing. You are there to help foster interest and self learning. Inspiring the students to explore sewing and creating things with cloth, leather...

Here's the life secret they don't want you to know: "You Can do it in three easy steps." Come take your part in the growing revolution today. You too can have the life you have always wanted.

Meanwhile Trump says to Denmark "Let my people go in Greenland....you never loved them anyway....besides....their feelings are hurt too much over you calling them incestuous....just because everyone is marrying their cousin there don't mean nothing"

Personally I think the whole Canada thing is hilarious.... Trump offers Canada to be the 51st state and Australia says. "Whoah, what about me? I wanna be a state!"

OK... Great question. You are RIGHT because we should ALWAYS ask a lot of questions when reading scripture. This section in Psalms is poetry...not a narrative, history, prophecy or parable. IOW a slice of a song. So....to really understand this take a look at other narratives in...

In what way is AI not a tool that is neither good or bad like a gun? AI has a difficult time interpreting scripture due to its metaphoric, symbolic and literary device nature....just like it's programmers do. It doesn't "know" anything....good or bad. It's indifferent because it's just ones...

AI is not scary....it's just a tool. What's scary is the power people give it. Guns are not scary. But a thug with a gun is scary. A gun in the hands of law enforcement arresting the thug is not scary in the least. Same thing. AI is not creative. It takes known things and puts them...
