Printed and painted up these sweet raptor valve stem caps for my truck! Pretty happy with how they turned out. Used my voxelab proxima 4k printer and anycubic plant based resin. #3dprint #velociraptor #voxelab #anycubic

Can I just say I love the #homebrewing community!

Was contemplating setting up a savings plan for a $700+ Cannular machine for seaming cans of #homebrew in the future and came across this thread on the homebrewtalk forum. @EspetoHomebrew shared all his STL files and parts for a simple seamer.

Noti print from InPrintCondition
Printed on Bambu Labs X1 at 0.08 height

It's tiny. Apparently InPrintCondition just updated the files cause it was too small for scale so I will have to print it again to be more in scale with 6inch Black Series figures.

Well, it's been a year now since I have been sucked into 3d-printing, and yes... it is a "full-grown hobby".

Two birds, having a conversation:

Bird #1: "I think I might get into 3d printing".
Bird #2: "Really? Seems boring."

Bird #1: "How so?"
Bird #2: "Well it's a printer. You know. Beep boop and here's your toy boat or whatever."

(Bird #1 throws his wings in the air, in exasperation)
Bird #1: "Ugh. I wish it were that easy. There's lots of software to learn and the machine has to be calibrated and tweaked and should I get a resin printer or an extrusion printer and there's maintenance and upkeep and there's constantly newer and better printers you'll want to upgrade to and..."

Bird #1: "It's like having a second job that just drains money from your bank account."

(Bird #2 puts his wing around Bird #1's shoulder)
Bird #2: "Whoa, that's not boring at all - That's a full grown hobby!"

ça ne donne clairement pas envie d'acheter une imprimante Bambulab #bambulab #prusa #3dprint

L'imitation est la plus grande forme de flatterie, merci !  Mais tout le monde mérite de savoir pourquoi nous bloquons l'URL. Nous avons commencé à remarquer des comportements étranges et des comptes sur @Printables
 il y a quelques mois. Plus tard, nous avons réalisé que les développeurs de Bambulab faisaient de la rétro-ingénierie sur Printables, la façon dont nous travaillons en interne. La première grande attaque a été le téléchargement de modèles volés, probablement pour voir comment nous les traitons et pour que les utilisateurs nous le signalent. La deuxième grande attaque a été les campagnes de spam via notre système de messagerie interne, et de nombreux utilisateurs l'ont signalé. Cela nous a obligés à mettre en place un filtre anti-spam à l'échelle du site. C'est difficile, mais en fin de compte, nous sommes tranquilles. Nous ne bloquons le transfert d'aucun modèle et nous n'interférerons pas avec la vérification via des codes uniques. Nous suggérons donc d'abandonner la campagne "Libérez mes modèles" et de commencer à jouer franc-jeu.

Printed a phone case for my wife in TPU, it printed pretty good except for a few weird spots which I'm not sure what would have caused this. I'm not familiar with tpu at all. I know it needs to be dried and I have it in a dryer drying while it's printing. It's inland tpu.

Question for those who #3dprint - What are you using to design your models? I was using #Fusion360 which I quite like, but their hobbyist licence seems to have disappeared and there's no way I can justify £££s a year for a few (very) simple little builds.

#Control #ControlGame #3dPrint #3dPrinting #ResinPrinting

Figurine imprimée en 3d en résine de Jesse Faden, héroïne du jeu vidéo Control, peinte à la main.

Jesse Faden, utilisant ses pouvoirs de lévitation et de télékinésie à l'instar du jeu vidéo, lévite au milieu d'une pile de débris de toutes sortes (roches, béton poubelle, claviers...) qui s'élève autour d'elle sur la commande de son bras tendu devant elle. L'autre main tient "l'arme de service", arme emblématique du jeu ressemblant à un revolver, sinon que dans cette version l'arme se termine avec neuf canon répartis en une grille, au lieu d'un seul.

Pas totalement visible sur la photo : les débris, de haut en bas, sont couverts de lettres mis en évidence par la couleur qui forme les mots "Take Control", qui est le titre de la chanson emblématique du jeu qui est jouée au court d'un certain niveau.

Si jamais vous lisez ça parce que vous avez un handicap visuel, dites vous que la peinture de cette figurine est une véritable œuvre d'art qui témoigne de décennies de travail et d'expérience. Ignorez ceux qui disent le contraire, ce sont sans doute des jaloux.

Not sure if anyone else has this issue, but I personally don't like having big giant empty boxes for the key caps I didn't need and I don't want to throw them all into a baggie.

A recent order I got of low profile keycaps came in a bag, and since I'm now done building the keyboard, I want a better way to store the key caps that is still small, but at least organized.

Anyway, I came up with this basic 3D print that is expandable and is friendly on most printers. I would like to revisit it to be slightly more optimal, but that's for another day.

New favourite #3DPrint done!

I've failed with this moon litophane a few times already, but this time everything worked out great. Even though I'd set the print speeds to extra slow my poor little cantilever #3DPrinter was vibrating something fierce once it started gaining some height (and weight). The result is absolutely stunning though!

Took a measly 60 hours (printed slow and at high quality)...

Great new nightlight for the little one.

Edit: forgot to say that it's 20 cm in diameter.

A 3D-printed moon litophane lamp on a tripod stand (black). It's throwing a lovely glow on a number of things surrounding it (a small clay whale, a zebra and antelope music box, a lion soft toy with blue hair, a painting, a couple of Bamse magazine collectors and a white/grey owl nightlight).

My favorite mathematician (we're married, I'm allowed to have a favorite!) is working to put together a crowd-sourced Julia Robinson Math Festival in a Box for local teachers to use to run a JRMF for their students. I thought that maybe I could #3DPrint some puzzle pieces for the spatial reasoning game of "Skyscrapers" (or "Towers") so I got out #FreeCAD and started modeling.

I couldn't figure out how to make the design I had in mind so you could just enter a parameter for the number of segments in a tower, so I ended up with lots and lots of parametrically-located clones of the three different kinds of parts of which the towers are comprised, boolean-fused together. I don't think anyone ever actually does this with more than 6, and in fact the JRMF uses only 5, so I didn't make any larger units.

I'll be printing these out, using a different color for each size, and will publish the files after I'm confident I'm done tweaking.

Call me a weird dude. But I love watching this machine! It's so great that something physical is created before your eyes, nearly out of "nothing", just from your own design. And all this is happening not in a factory building, but in my own home. It's always fascinating to me! 🥰

#3DPrint #3DPrinting #BabuLab #LoudSpeaker

Very interesting. Same filament (Bambu Lab PLA-CF), different color. The black one turns out way more cleaner!

And I'll tell you why: the black was dried for 8 hours before use, the gray was not.

The little dots on the surface are „Random Seams“. It's no problem since the entire thing will be filled and sanded and painted anyway.

What I'm wondering right now is: How do I get the #Speaker balanced in terms of weight? The driver alone weighs 1.6Kg. The housing tapers towards the rear. That is, the whole thing is very nose-heavy! So I should put some weight "somewhere" in the back. But how? 🤔

Tactile Patch Sheets are a 3D printed design vocabulary to help vision impaired people more easily dial in synthesizer patches on hardware synths.

I started this work two years ago and was finally able to get everything written up, and all the files created, tested and uploaded.

Everything about this work is open-source and BSD licensed.

#visionimpaired #synth #synthesizer #3dprint #design #accessibility

3D printed example of a tactile patch sheet for the Mavis synthesizer

Ultimately, I think my #3dprint failures yesterday were the result of a few factors:

1. My nozzle had somehow gotten a little loose, and filament had made it's way around the threads and was leaking around the top of the nozzle. This led to buildup on the nozzle quickly with blobs coming off, even causing a layer shift

2. The bed is slightly warped in the corners, meaning I had to make bed leveling offsets, something I've never messed with because I rarely print in the corners

All good now.

This somehow seemed like an appropriate #3dprint today. Thanks @Bas for the model!

Introduction:

Hi! Hawkwinter here. New to mementomori.social.

I had been primarily using calckey.social the past while, (and some of the extra features their software adds are great) but they've been having frequent stability /usability issues that were making it hard to use, and Roni said I could set up here. I have nothing against the Firefish devs / admins on a personal level or anything, they seem quite nice from the bits we've interacted.

I'm also @Hawkwinter@mastodon.art - but I'm mostly trying to stick to using that for art-related stuff.

I do 3d character stuff, 2d graphic design and cartography stuff. A bit of 2d character art. Tech/it stuff. Programming. Working on a Visual Novel in Ren'py. I'd like to figure out how to make VRChat and VTuber avatars.

Not currently accepting commissions, but I would probably like to in the future.

I like TTRPGs? Particularly GURPS, & heavily homebrewed D&D3.x with Eclipse. Also Rolemaster 4e. Played other stuff over the years but those ones are my favorites.

For entertainment, I like Wuxia, and Xianxia, and the Forgotten Realms, and Tolkien.

I'm interested in sustainable longterm architecture (to last centuries, not decades), science and tech, passive heating and cooling systems, and high-efficiency masonry woodstoves. 'Fancy-offgrid'. Regenerative agriculture and watershed management is neat too.

I occasionally read some philosophy. Nietzsche has a few neat ideas on individual self improvement, but the Tao te Ching has neat ideas on other stuff, like a few ideas on how a functional society would work. I'm not going to pretend to be a well-read philosophy student though.

In addition to regular social-media-ing, Gamedev-type stuff might get posted from here sometimes too? I'm really not sure.

Anyway, here's some misc examples of my work in different mediums / styles. The custom in-game menu screenshot is a WIP. I've been doing a good bit of reprogramming and extending things under the hood.

Cheers!

I'm not brand-new to Fedi, but new to Calckey & been really liking it here the past couple days for general social-media-ing {mostly Friendica before, it wasn't bad but I think I like Calckey better}, You can also find me periodically posting art from .art

Curious about HERO & HARNMaster. If I'm going to Shadowrun I like 4e best by a wide margin. Not a big D&D 5e fan. I have a gripes with its mechanics and setting game design. Super rules-lite games aren't really my thing either as you could guess from my list of favorites - I like the ones where it feels like I'm running around in {or simply running if I'm GM} a simulated world with humanlike NPC behavior {to preempt the question of 'Why not just videogames'}. I'm aware my RPG tastes are niche, & that's okay.

For entertainment, I also like Wuxia, and Xianxia, and the Forgotten Realms, and Tolkien.

I'm interested in sustainable longterm architecture (to last centuries, not decades), science and tech, passive heating and cooling systems, and high-efficiency masonry woodstoves. 'Fancy-offgrid'. Regenerative agriculture and watershed management is neat too.

Like a lot of the people here, I think my worldview has become a bit more collectivist at the societal level rather than hyper-individualist with indifference to the exploitative capitalism we have now, though I don't think violent revolution is a good idea, instead favoring building out collective networks of people that takes care of its members and federates with similar collectives and then can lobby the government also as a collective unit rather than leaving individuals to fend for themselves against the rich and the powerful, is a better way to go. (Something like guilds. Or a labor union not dependent on having a specific job, or like how I've seen Jehovahs Witnesses have their own sub-society of networking and helping eachother out that's not always for-profit).

I occasionally read some philosophy. Nietzsche has a few neat ideas on individual self improvement, but the Tao te Ching has neat ideas on other stuff, like a few ideas on how a functional society would work. I'm not going to pretend to be a well-read philosophy student though.

In addition to regular social-media-ing, Gamedev-type stuff might get posted from here sometimes too, or maybe it'll be a thing to get its own profile? I'm really not sure.

Created my first 3D printed "design". It's a functional print, as it replaces lost feed for our metal framed bunk beds. It's supposed to help the floor from getting scratched. 🤞🏼Hoping it works. 🫨

My #OctoPrint @octoprint stopped working properly after an upgrade of some packages. But due to the very good backup & restore functionality I just created a brand new SD Card with the latest release and restored from backup and everything work smoothly again. Very good work @foosel 👏
