Need a word or phrase translated?

I'm surprised he didn't have any questions about sound effects, which seem to make up about 90% of the text....

Oh, yeah I did. And, no I don't. I'm pretty sure I understand it now. If I do happen to have more questions, I won't hesitate to post.
I've actually found a really good list of SFX, some of which aren't even on "The Jaded Network."

Then you can inform it in some way instead of leaving the thread doing nothing. You don't need to hesitate to acknowledge those who helped you.

It wouldn't break your jaw to say "Thank you" to the man, would it? Ignoring people who helped you and taking them for granted isn't a recipe for getting help again the next time you come looking for it.
I actually commend you guys for speaking up about this. 
On other sites, where I forget to say thank you, no one's ever said anything. It's not that I don't appreciate the help, it's just that sometimes I just don't think to say it.

I need some help with this sentence.
Context: 3 friends are eating lunch at school.
[話をしながらもトモはトモで昼飯に手をつけていた」
I'm totally blanking out on that highlited part, specifically で.
Does that mean "by (means of) himself"?
Thanks.

I think トモ is a person's name. As for the structure ～は～で, please refer to #4 in the following thread.

having a little trouble with this particularly the 段差
2㎜以上の浅いくぼみ、溝、段差用.
It's part of the specifications of a rotary blade. The rough idea of it I have is that the blade has these shallow depression and grooves that are more than 2mm which are used creating difference in levels?
Also we figured out my previous problem. it turns out we were right but there was an extra step my friend had to do.

Where did you get it from? Do you understand that the blade is for deburring?

Does that mean you already understand the meaning of the phrase and you don't need any help now?
What does 「計算でやっている」 means in the following dialogue?
後輩「消火器投げるのが定番ですか？」
先輩「知らん、割ればなんでもいい」
後輩「じゃ、ちゃっくら調達してきます！ちなみに割った後の責任は一切負いませんので！」
先輩「・・・・・・いや、やっぱりいい、俺が探してくるからお前はここで待ってろ」
後輩「なんですかいきなり掌返したように」
先輩「俺が言い出したことだしな。それに地味に重いだろ消火器って」
後輩「先輩それ計算でやっているんですか？」
先輩「何がだよ」
後輩「いえ、何でもありませんー。」

@Toritoribe Yes, 後輩 is a girl.
Thank you, however I can't understand how 「計算でやっている」 references to 「調達してきます」, if I'm understanding correctly - "delivering a fire extinguisher".

Oh, sorry for confusing. I just pointed out a typo by ちょっくら調達してきます.
先輩 offered to carry a fire extinguisher back here instead of 後輩 because it's heavy. As a result, he showed his tenderness toward her unconsciously. Then she asked if he did that(= showing his tenderness) consciously(= 計算で).
That's 調達 "procure", not 配達 "deliver", btw.

How to write "He sat down on the chair" in Japanese?

Am I wrong?

That's correct.
I have a question about the meaning of 「その双厳がである。」 in the following passage. If I'm understanding correctly by その双厳 it references to the previous sentences which describe how many people he killed and how everyone afraids to get closer to him. However I'm not sure about the particle が after it, does it refers to the next sentence 「いつになく恐ろしい雰囲気をかもし出していたのである。」? Something along the lines - 'Sougen, who is scary all the time, now has 「いつになく恐ろしい雰囲気」, but still the girl doesn't afraid of him'?
楓玲「いつになく怖い顔しているね。何かあったの？」
双厳「・・・・・・」
双厳の思い「いつになく・・・・・・？」
双厳の思い「ちょっと不思議な女だな」
双厳は普通の人間に想像出来ないほど人を斬った。
その故、双厳からつねに妖気に似た雰囲気が漂う。
多くの人はその空気を恐れ、双厳に近づかなかった。その双厳がである。
いつになく恐ろしい雰囲気をかもし出していたのである。
普通の人ならば話しかけるなどという選択肢があったものではない。
