Well I sure do hope so!

Went out today. Just a few hours but hey, it was fun to get out. Got a bit this time, I must be doing something different now!

I'm just using the Ender 3 now. The build vole is 220x220x250 so not the greatest but it's enough for me like... I'm doing it for small scale things so I don't need something like the cr10.

Yeah goldfreak, absolutely know that already as I used to have a cheap Chinese piece of crap ripoff of a makerforge and the only way to get ABS to stick to the glass bed was to make a slurry and use it as bed adhesive. It's not the most reliable shit, but it has its uses. These bits have a...

Mate I found a half decent pattern for pans... Can't wait to see if they turn out alright, but first things first. Mrs wants a hello kitty cappuccino stencil.

The finished product. A bit of cleanup, get rid of the stringing, but it's looking good. Now just gotta make a channel for it, that's going to be made out of the old dishwasher I reckon.

In other news, finally got my first colours out at Ophir today! The fact that I had to take the picture through my magnifier is really testament to how small today's efforts ended up being but God, it felt good seeing it on there and knowing that I have about 20c worth all up haha.

Absolutely would if I had that kind of money. That being, any at all. Spare funds are seldom seen around this house because everything we need has something to do with spending it. This is just a way for me to release a bit of creativity with one of my other hobbies. If it ends up working out...

28 hours, 87%, not long now!

Actually headed out Ophir today, the Mrs is busy so it'll just be me and the kid again and he does have a taste for it, gonna stop by Kmart in orange and get one of those kids metal detectors, even if it is just for the novelty... He's gonna love it. Bonus if it actually works right? For 25...

That looks neat as heck! I'm not so sure about the flourescent green though, that might make it a bit hard to see any potential colour yeah? But if it works for him then all the power to him! I'm at 50% now, my poor printer has never seen this much work at once and it is going like a cat with...

I'm using this as more of a test run. What I want to do, if this works okay, is design my own things that interlock kind of like shiplap, with the walls attached so I can just print off like... 20cm sections at a time. Like this, they can be easily lifted off each other to separate for cleaning...

See I've wanted to do thermoforming, seen it a couple times on YouTube, looks like good fun.

I'm printing a tighter rib, that loose rib and like a cup shape one, the file had all 3 and I figured I would try them all out. It's a fully customisable set though, they link together with loops and rods so I could just print a bunch of them if they work and stick them in series. It's just... a...

No need to wait, I'm currently at 15%, and it's only been going for just over 5 hours!
