The major structure of most cars are made of stamped and spot-welded sheet metal, usually steel. IIRC Teslas are made mostly of aluminum, so some of the parts might be extruded, cast, and/or machined, and they might also be riveted and/or bonded (glued) together. The body shell shouldn’t need to be very precise, maybe +/- .03" at most. On the other hand, the dies that make the body panels are under tremendous pressure and need to be more precise so that they can consistently turn out good parts without wearing down or breaking.

It’s the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances’ admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again
