Mine live outside in the garage , I built a Corsi-Rosenthal box (box fan with a bunch of filters on it) that stays on out there, and both of mine are in fairly decently sealed enclosures with HEPA+Carbon recirc filters.
Don’t go in there when printing unless absolutely necessary, and even then, minimise exposure.
How the hell was that even issued? Ianal obviously, my recollection from uni engineering was that Prior Art matters.
Also, given that there’s a lot of skilled people in the field these days, you’d think some of these patents could be challenged as being “obvious to a skilled person”, bed levelling to me could fit that bill given it’s a common issue that would make sense to pursue a solution for. Granted I’m not versed in us patent law (I barely have a basic understanding of Canadian Patent Law), so maybe that’s different.
When I do my own, I’ll give the dough a long cold ferment (I’ve done sourdough and preferment versions of a recipe I like, it’s pretty simple just adds some olive oil, Flour Water Salt Yeast has a really decent recipe as well) and stretch it thin.
Sweet + savoury is a favourite of mine, one of the best was
Yeah I like Hawaiian, but it’s way better with peameal bacon or streaky bacon than ham, even better with pickled jalapeños or some other hot pepper
The classic one that my partner and I had when we where dating was
Don’t eat a lot of frozen, it’s good to have on hand like frozen dumplings as a quick thing, honestly as much as loblaw’s sucks (Canadian grocery chain) their brand (President’s Choice) makes some really nice pizzas, or Dr Oetker.
Tend to order takeout from local places over chains
Just be careful about asking it to create villains capable of outwitting you.
Wish that the mirror designs you see on trucks for towing was standard, having that second parabolic mirror with a standard mirror is amazing and I’ve had that as my setup forever now on a small car, can see everything in those.
Something like this setup also takes getting used to but seriously worth it.
Afaik the timeline after beating the game splits, the adult timeline carries on from there and then the child timeline carries on as if Gannondorf never took over in the first place
Isn’t windwaker following the adult timeline and twilight princess the kid one but both where Link succeeds?
Guess it kinda makes sense if you think about it as a split at the end of oot? Idk, timeline is wild and I never thought about it too much.
That looks amazing!
Aussie Techmoan with Ashens for good measure.
Was more a thought about if you are concerned about micro fibre particulate (what I took from your post, sorry if I misunderstood) plastic on plastic or plastic on metal are fine for sure, maybe a little exaggerated. Do wonder though about the wear of 3d printed bushings, surfaces won’t be smooth, some of the glass filled nylon I’ve used has almost a soft surface to it, it’s really hard to describe, some post processing though would probably make my (mild) concern moot though so.
Wrt composites hobbyist/prosumer grade manufacturers (some that target engineering customers in that bucket too) claim they don’t experience the same warping or shrinkage in general, whether or not that’s true I don’t have enough information to tell you unfortunately. Have found both common types definitely have more rigidity, I use them in places where that really matters.
It’s pretty common to see cheap bearings in 3d printed parts, actually mildly interesting to me that bushings don’t seem to be, at least at the hobbyist level. To go further, how many designs do you see with heat set inserts or pressed in nuts?
Shit just even for filament printing, there’s some solvents that get thrown around online that yeah, you really shouldn’t use in a home setting, it’s really easy to get things like MEK, which work, but starting to get into nasty territory for stuff that will dissolve filament.
Most people do not have adequate ppe or ventilation to deal with chemicals at home, or a fire cabinet, or even know how to find an SDS.
Semi related, lithium batteries are straight up terrifying, primary cells more than rechargeables, but same idea, I honestly hope no one ever gets to experience an actual full on cell failure, I avoided them thankfully but heard stories of just how much energy is released in even one C or D sized cell going.
On the composite filaments, abrasive filament sure sounds like a great thing to make wear surfaces out of! There’s a list if things that idk if I’d print, and that’d be up there, ots oil bronze bushings are like, a buck, maybe 2? And they’ll last a hell of a lot longer.
SW was great to use back in uni but holy hell is it full of phone home stuff and really annoying these days, I scrapped my license, they straight up wouldn’t let me cancel within 30 days of renewal so I yanked my cc and “cancelled” that way.
Use FreeCAD, mentioned in a few posts, it’s got some clunk but it’s 100% useable, has more than enough features for prosumer/hobbyist use, personally I’d make an argument it’s fine for enterprise use too, Ondsel seems to think so considering that’s the market they’re targeting with their releases. I’d recommend the Ondsel release or Realthunder’s (what I currently use) which has features/fixes that will be merged back, and 100% look at mainline freecad when the 1.0 release drops
Legit have never had an issue with multi boot and windows like ever, tbf I don’t go into windows that frequently anymore but it’s never given me grief in at least a decade. I know my experience isn’t universal though, so sorry to anyone who does have boot issues after windows updates.
In the worst case, could use bcdedit and use the windows boot loader (tbh I have no idea if that works here, but could be worth a try)
Do you have an iPhone or any phone with lidar built in? It’s been a while but I recall it being an option for scanning, make use of tools you already have. I’m not sure what exists for Foss related apps though sorry, and afaik they’re not super accurate (dedicated scanners can get <0.01mm resolution from what I’ve seen but they’re expensive) but if your goal is layout that’d do the trick in my view. Heck, as you said, camera scanning would work, there’ll be cleanup but should be good enough to get you dimensions.
Another thought, could check with local makerspaces or the like, totally possible they may have scanners you could use, or could put you on the right track. Diy wise, kinects as mentioned, I’m not experienced with these but there are photogrammetry tools, micmac could work, there’s meshroom but that needs some compute hardware and COLMAP could also be worth looking into
Edit: Photogrammetry is decently accurate afaik, recall sitting in a tech meeting at my last job where the process engineers from the material handling department presented a poc they did with some cheap drones and cheap cameras, they did a fly over of the pier to scan ore piles and apparently were able to get fairly accurate weight estimates from the photogrammetry results, which was really cool to me.
Some monitors have inbuilt KVM switches, have an MSI ultrawide (model escapes me sorry) I bought a few years ago that I use to flip between usbc and dp. Configurable though, could set it up to flip between HDMI and DP and assign usb to whatever one I prefer. It’s way nicer than the switch + swapping inputs manually I had been using.
If you live near a microcenter
I’m like a stone’s throw from the border, if they’re cheaper very much consider crossing for that (closest looks like Detroit though, wrong crossing :/) at least for the tap carriage and mount.
Layer lines are unavoidable imo, I’ve sorta just come to terms, I think I run a tad hot and haven’t fully tuned my profiles, but happy with it for my purposes, and definitely heat soak as well, got a process where I do it right after plate prep/cleanup, then I go do my plating and slicing, gives lots of time.
LEDs I’m mixed on, I moved my gantry cam because they seemingly were aimed right at it and you couldn’t see anything. I keep thinking about a nozzle camera, but with my current setup I really don’t feel like running another umbilical and I’m not 100% sold that it’d survive or really be that handy.
How is the rapido? I’m using dragon HF/UHF for spares and using my existing v6 nozzles, have heard the rapido has some good results.
Are those machined idler blocks‽ if not you have some really solid prints! Impressed with how clean everything is! Just took a shopvac to mine friday, printing parts for a Stealthmax, so lots of buildup.
Need to get into that good enough mindset, definitely caused myself some headache (grabbed a Knomi for the heck of it, tons of interference issues with the blowers I use (sunon and gdstime) but got it going on the fanken-prusa
Instead of running LEDs to the toolhead. It’s cheesy and heavy, but rule of cool right?
If you don’t feel like printing parts, could run the usb umbilical through the chains.
Is your other printer still up? Having a backup has come in really handy.
My dad was big into Sierra an Apogee so of what I can recall, be one of the incredible machine, king’s quest 6, duke nukem 2 or command keen. Also remember playing math and word rescue at like… 5, shareware was more than enough to keep me occupied at that age. First console game though was altered beast on the genesis.
I’m still stuck mostly on 1.7.10 and 1.12.2 modpacks, I don’t play as much these days though.
First computer I built had a BFG 7600gt with the first upgrade I ever did was a BFG 8800gt
Miss BFG and EVGA for nvidia cards.
