  1. Attended #SMRRF this weekend and as usual had my robots with me, my old wireless router was looking a bit naff so made a new enclosure. A tribute to the amazing datenklos from @emf and other European maker camps, using the filament given to SMRRF exhibitors last year.

    May I present, the Portable Network Convenience!

    It's a 4G modem/router running OpenWRT, it has a 5 port POE switch that powers everything in it including an 8 port gigabit switch and external access point.

    It's also got space for another Pi or Jetson board if I need extra compute too.

    I'll still be able to use it at EMF for hosting services too, just without the AP, handy for running the new Hacky Racers telemetry system!

  2. Good day at #SMRRF, talking 3D printing and making with people. The day flew past.

    For the record, I managed to score zero on the dartboard. I am very impressed with myself for that.

  3. Not been on a train for ages. Heading to Manchester for the #SMRRF

  4. Arrived in the city for the this weekend. Manchester weather doesn’t disappoint!

  5. Steady progress on the Deathracer build while I’ve been unwell these past 3 days. I’m at the stage of working out where I used longer screws than I should have as I run out of them but have loads of shorter ones left from the kit (which has no instructions). Also reprinting several parts where the holes were too large for screw threads to bite in them.

  6. Deathracer build was going well until on the 4th axle (of 4) the drill bit bound so tightly in the 50mm deep hole I had to drill out that it snapped when I tried to reverse drive it back out. So now I need to reprint that part and try again.

  7. @mutthew We just eyeballed all the Siboor colour samples at and picked these out.

  8. @piofthings This is the Voron R0.2 kit from siboor.com who I met at the in December. I am really impressed with the kit for the money. Came with all 3D printed parts included and the print quality is excellent.

  9. Got anymore Benchies I hear you ask?

    Sure. What about #Protopasta's HTPLA called Luke's Proton Purple?

    Also part of #FilaPrint's sample pack from #smrrf.

  14. By the way… The samples for all these Benchies was sponsored by #3dfilaprint for the #smrrf raffle.

    These are two more #protopasta samples: HTPLA Black Carbon Fiber Composite and HTPLA Copper-filled Metal Composite.

  18. What I did with the sample @3dprinting filaments I won at the #smrrf raffle?

    I do not understand that question.

    This Azurefilm PLA Anthracite Grey #benchy has some sparks…

  19. Seeing all the makers at #SMRRF last weekend has got me pumped again to work on my own projects! Other than my video work, I’ve got a loose idea to create a “build your own autonomous drone” kit, with a companion Python SDK to speed up development

  20. @andypiper I’ve been driving past Oxford for years on my way from Cambridge to various caving trips, but this was the first time I’ve been able to spend time in the city. Some beautiful buildings. We had two amazing days at

  21. Nat, Rob and I have had an absolute blast these past 2 days at Today was a little less busy so I found lots of time to speak to other exhibitors and buy cool stuff.

  22. Took a lovely peaceful 30 minute walk around Oxford city centre before the start of day 2 at

  23. Sticker haul #SMRRF #SMRRF23 #3Dprinting a fun day seeing some cool machines, as well as meeting and talking to folks like Voidstar, 3DPrintBunny and @drfootleg

  24. Great first day at the in Oxford, UK today. This was our stand surrounded by professional content creators and companies.

  25. It’s close to #SMRRF buzz cut time!

  26. A proper setup from @drfootleg, was cool seeing the new robotics kit in action! #SMRRF

  27. I forgot how currencies work. But it’s going to a good cause, so that’s okay😊

  28. Duet3D showing off their 5-axis machine, based on a Voron 0 #3DPrinting #SMRRF

  29. Tomorrow I’ll be exploring #3dprinting and related tech at the Sanjay Mortimer RepRap Festival in Oxford #SMRRF #SMRRF23 - also the end of term for students there, so I’m expecting the city to be pretty busy! 😬

  30. The UK is having a Rep. Rap. Festival! Tickets booked for in 2-3 Dec.
    Planning to exhibit my custom there. I may be launching my first Footleg Robotics product there too!
