  1. I got the dimensions of the USB-C jack wrong the first time … :eyeroll: But now everything fits fine. The PCB is held exactly in place by the top lid.

    For such #3dprinting projects I like those self-tapering screws for plastics. Once installed in my #velomobile with the right lengthened wires, electronics and speaker enclosures will be closed (the later one w/ glue).

    Making enclosures and lids fit was easy w/ binders (offset -0.1mm) in #FreeCAD.

  2. Hyper3D has launched Rodin Gen-2.5, an AI model that generates 3D meshes with up to 10 million faces. The update also adds tools for mesh repair, region editing via text prompts, splitting large models into printable parts, and colour assignment for multi-colour printing.

  3. 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:

  4. 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.

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

  6. @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

  7. 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

  8. 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.
