Looking good, wish I had the patience to wait on something like that printing. Roll on 2032 when we all have blisteringly fast printers.

.... Actually, to hell with that, I'd be almost 60, scary thought

I'm using a 1/4" Borosilicate bonded to a Maghold steel sheet using 3M 468MP adhesive transfer tape, and that is sitting on a Maghold build plate. I was watching a print and I think the platform wiggles/vibrates less with all of that mass than when I simply use a Buildtak sheet on it. I dont have an accelerometer or I would instrument it. Anybody observe something similar / or any comments?

Welcome to the funhouse! I am curious, what do you use to extend USB 150'?

Here is an Amazon link:

I use these mainly for large vinyl cutters and they can be very fussy with a longer USB cable. These have worked great for me.

The below screen grille and catch, and all the parts for the latch:


Tape deck parts and a Holotape:


Console Link tube parts:


Screen and button body backing frames:


All I have left to print is the button body's and the buttons.

Syd, you are a printin' machine!

Syd, you are a printin' machine!

Actually its my machine that's a printing machine.....I just tell it what to do while giggling manically.

Button bodys and the knobs/buttons are done:


Takes alot of parts to make a pip-boy


Now I need to find all the hardware I need to put it together, and get some paint. Good thing I just ordered several spools from MG, as the only ABS I have right now is Glow in the Dark...and only about 350-400 grams of that.

What speed are you running that at as they are awesome looking.

oh i need apart from the printer like this..

[Syd_Khaos]

What speed are you running that at as they are awesome looking.

Everything was done at 3200mm/min, and from .25 to .28 layer height.
I always run ABS at either 3000 or 3200 mm/min.

My printer has been printing great for months, but now every time it cools off, the feeder slips and doesn't feed any filament through until I pull the filament out and reload it again. Now it appears to be doing this even in the middle of a print. It just makes a clicking sound and never feeds anything through. What is the deal?
