Yup exactly, the original ones were some weird wing-shaped things that were impossible to position correctly without sliding away or sitting at an angle so I went with pic related.
I had to add some additional profiles and screw it down into the bench to work on 5083 alumin*I*um because vibration...

Even though I'm someone who says Alumin*i*um, I love seeing British people get annoyed about Americans "saying it wrong".
The etymology section for the metal is surprisingly long, and Americans use the word suggested by Humphry Davy himself.
The Europeans were the ones who demanded the name change.

One more really small one: I get really distracted by the various types/qualities of joints between metal bicycle tubes. I can tell alumin[i]um vs. steel just by the weld bead. Bilam vs. lugs, fillet brazing, sleeved joints, etc.
u heard sharon, everyone post about their esoteric interests right fucking now. for the good of the community, we need to be hyperfixationmaxxing.
i think this site really needs to figure out how to grow the non-politics verticals (the baseball moment was a good thing!) because i suspect a lot of the bad clusters come out of the political clusters driving 95% of ENG-lang posts

That's because it's spelled Alumin*i*um.

I will allow that we're the ones who spell sulfur wrong.

A chemist of my acquaintance had a science paper rejected by referees who did not consider the claim, only quibbled with the spelling of alumin(i)um.

Meaningless inconsistency. Why not "Sodum", or "Molybdenium"?

Also most people in the American continent are not USanians.

I have an all-alumin(i)um guitar and, well, yeah... Even with a mostly hollow body it's a bit of a boat anchor!

(Dunno if you've played all-metal guitars, but they tend to be really bright and sound amazing in the right situations)

The one whereby American consumers will be forced to pay an extra 15% on everything they buy that comes from the EU, like, say, cars. And steel and alumin(i)um going into the US gets a 50% tariff, so American cars won't sell and European ones will cost $150 more per $1000 of the ticket price.

Ooo, can I ask a question? Do you reckon this is bauxite? (Found on the beach, northwest England - not a typical location for it but there is an old alumin(i)um processing plant not far along the coast.)

RTÉ News understands the total EU response to Trump's tariffs could amount to duties on US goods worth €400 billion

This would represent retaliation for US tariffs of 25% on steel & alumin, last Wed "reciprocal" tariffs of 20%, and the 25% tariffs on European car exports
