04-14-2018, 03:44 PMfred_dot_u replied to a thread Looking for recommendations : Large-ish format, commercial printing in 3D Printers (Hardware)@awerby, I was hesitant to suggest SLA or SLS printing for something that could be eight inches square, due to the inordinate cost. I like your...7 replies | 345 view(s) -
04-13-2018, 05:34 PMfred_dot_u replied to a thread Looking for recommendations : Large-ish format, commercial printing in 3D Printers (Hardware)That's certainly a valid consideration.

04-07-2018, 12:45 PMfred_dot_u replied to a thread Online 3d software apps are horrid in 3D Design Feedback / Assistance / Work-in-ProgressI think those numbers fill in all the blanks. One important observation, though, is that most manufactured electronics today are on boards that are...23 replies | 876 view(s)

I'm not sure how you got SketchUp to tell you that the diagonal distance of a 1/4" square is 3/8". That's not a double-check, that's a...23 replies | 876 view(s)
