Weekend is surely prime printing time. You guys/gals printing anything cool? I want to see! What kind of filaments are you using?! Anything fancy?
I’ve been working on printing a crawler crane. I’ve run out of screws though! Haha, but slowly am working through printing all of the parts. This thing is huge, and with each part, it keeps surprising me how big it all is. I put my camera in there for a scale reference, but not entirely sure that even conveys how big it actually is. Been printing in PETG-CF Black and Red! This stuff is awesome.
On the scale/size flip side, I made a little mounting clip for my security cameras, because I lost the originals, except for the one I used for reference. The print is finished by the time of me posting this, so I’m gonna go see how that turned out.
I’m putting the finishing touches on a two player card game based on the Triple Triad mini game from Final Fantasy VIII.
Each card is blue on one side, red on the other.
Each player gets five cards and decide who will be Blue and who will be Red
Each player draws five tiles and inserts them into their cards
Players take turns playing cards in a 3 x 3 area
If you play a card above, below or beside an opponents card, those cards “battle” and the highest number wins.
Take the second picture for example. If I had just played the red card in the middle of the top row, surrounded by blue cards, that red card loses the battle to the left (Blue 6, Red 2), loses the battle below (Blue 7, Red 4), but wins the battle to the right (blue 4, red 5). In that case, you pop the tile out of the losing blue card and flip it over so it’s red. Re-insert the tile, place the card back in it’s spot and continue the game.
I’ll have a much better explanation as well as a video when I upload it. I have thirty unique tiles ready to go which will allow for three games. I’m printing them off now
This looks fun! I like the graphic design you introduce in your work. I was thinking about that with the clock you did, in the face and everything. Goes a little beyond just embedding text or simple stuff like that.
That’s pretty cool. I’m curious about the internals!
I did a few silencers once for an air rifle. They worked pretty well. I don’t have any shots of the actual model anymore, but here’s a cad shot showing my internals. I packed it with toilet paper to help further absorb the energy/noise.
Thanks, I’m really putting that spline tool to work. I wanted to test the limits of my 0.2 nozzle and I didn’t find the character card set I was working on was intricate enough so I started making patterns. That nozzle has yet to disappoint.
Right now I am adding the finishing touches to a new model that i am working on. It is an Altimeter clock that will be compatible with the clock components from the kit 011. An altimeter is what More basic aircraft use to see how high they are flying. Hope it works out just as i want it.
Started off this morning by printing a cardboard spool adapter in PETG - which touches the lid of my new AMS
This is my first dual colour (2 part) print, again in PETG but which almost failed when printing the stand, upright on the bed. Last few layers screwed up maybe because of a feed problem, see far left.
