  1. The largest thing I modeled yet, done in 5 min in FreeCAD and printed in one go on the Snapmaker U1, no failures/reprints, stuck to the base plate all the way, except for a small part of the brim in one corner.

    I now get the "tool vs. hobby" compared to my Elegoo Neptune4. Not to mention that the print would not fit on the smaller 256mm plate.

  2. Tinta now has 21 videos on MakerTube, the whole build from FreeCAD sketches to the 3D-printed wall mount and electronics tests like the NFC taps.

    Thanks to @MakerTube for an home for maker videos on PeerTube.

  3. Okay sent off my first #FreeCAD files to a 3D printing place so we'll see if I actually understood the software and this whole new area of 3D print design.

    (Hopefully) Made a case for a #esp32 #WEMOS (or #LOLIN) S2 mini with room for GPIO headers and an IR Receiver and if it turns out I didn't screw up I'll upload that sucker to one of the 3D template sites.

    Only been playing with FreeCAD for about 3 days and still learning more and more so fingers crossed these models produce usable results.

    That little purple bugger deserves some good cases, dang it!
