Thinking about getting into #3dprinting. Kid has multiple friends who have some of various levels and quality and has been learning Blender and is excited by the idea. And PLA is compostable in Seattle which removes some of the waste concern. What nice but not super advanced printers do you like?
Project #minirack is done :)
The goal was to have a nice "living room capable" 10" rack to hold my #homeasssitant box with a touch display for smart home control, a network switch and a UPS.
And no it is not living in the livingroom now, nor was it planned ;) I could have moved the network wiring to the back/inside, but in the end it needed a little nerd factor.
Mostly made from laser cut plywood in #kumiko pattern that I spray painted black, and some 3D printed parts. All self designed/built except for the metal rails in the corners.
And did I mention it's ALL powered by USB-C PD internally?

Next project I've been doing quietly in the background... Custom designing Gridfinity storage and such for the PaintPal system.
Still a lot of organizing to go, but finally have enough shelving to hold things in a handy place. Where the minis temporarily are is to hold paints I am using while painting instead of all over the desk.
I may print the back extensions so I can go 4x5 deep for paint brushes organizers and such.

Have to add this blue ring, otherwise, the outer hull will not fit.
another sign - I really like that stuff atm

New project ! This time I’m working on theater masks — sculpted in #Blender and 3D printed !
Now comes the fun (and tricky) part: painting them…
I’ve got the brushes, I’ve got the motivation — I just need the right idea.
Suggestions welcome !

Working on a more useful evolution of the #keyguardian, my #3dPrinted XOR mechanism thats useful e.g. to unlock garage keys with a name tag for auto-documentation who took them.
This compact board houses 20 of these XOR pairs, so 20 keyrings could be tracked. But I also think this could be turned into a rad #boardGame, what do you think? Tying two of those together with a string is also very fun, I tried.
What do you think?

Recently I've been modernizing my #SV06 .
It's been running Klipper on it a long time but I replaced the print head and I'm adding a high quality camera.
Why? It's quiet.
Like, I'm surprised it's even on it's so silent. I have a kid who sleeps 14 hrs a day and my other printers are loud enough to wake him up.
Recent printers have seemingly picked speed over volume. Some reviews include dB levels but I'd love to see a #3DPrinting review round up that puts sound the primary metric.

Me: I will _not_ print anything else until these 3 other projects are painted and complete.
Also me: Oooh! Indiana Jones fertility idol.
(said in Clerks “ooh navy seals!” voice)
@3dprinting I published the box to printables.
