  1. I don't really know why but I never liked the bulky front beak on my #motorcycle so I removed it last year.
    I tried to mould a shortened version of it with glass fiber but it turned out even more ugly.

    Last week I got in touch with a local hobbyist that offers #3D-printing and -designing on demand.
    I showed him the bike plus the original beak and asked if he could design a slim beak for me.

    Only one day later the first prototype was printed but it was not quite how I had imagined it. Still better then no finish at the front at all:

    ...Luckily he was willing to work some more on it, so I asked if he could bring the tip up and make it even more slim and I think he nailed it:


    ...and for reference the original beak:


    And in case anyone is interested in the design:

  2. My father loves his 3D printer and made a little model of my house and my dog Tito. 😍 :blobaww:

    This is my new doorbell-house.

    Now protecting the doorbell from the sun and rain.

  3. @midtsveen yeah their generally is experimental research & development in #3dprinting & #materials , firmware & #software thats why

  4. @midtsveen did you slow down the #3DPrinting because TPU is slower then normal filament by about half of PLA as in before high speed PLA unless the instructions say otherwise

  5. Dear #american internet friends who happen to be #parents what is the #tradewar implications on school supplies, #tech like iPads , laptops , #drones , #3DPrinting & #christmas feel free to save this message & revisit every update

  6. A few pride foxxos followed me back from Eurofurence and they are now in the shop to be taken home. If you'd like to have one of them, there are: one non-binary, a lesbian, an agender one, an intersex and two rainbows left.

    These foxes are 3D printed and painted with acrylics paint and varnish.

  7. Iran has captured an Anduril Dive-LD autonomous underwater drone. The 5.8-metre drone, used for ISR and demining, features 3D-printed components and reaches 6000-metre depths. The US says it malfunctioned. Large-format additive manufacturing is ideally suited for mass-producing submarine hulls, showing how 3D printing is becoming essential for defence. 3dprint.com/332256/iran-captur #3Dprint #3Dprinting #Defence
