New location!

Avid readers, alas, we have reached a turning point. I have a new location for my blog and from now on I will be posting there. Please keep reading, and commenting! Here is the address:

I look forward to your continued interest!

Whatever have you been doing?

Filament all over the house, when will there be a standardized storage solution?

Storage solution. Just some shelves I put up with a friend.

The Berlin i3, still going strong! Look what we've made:

Baby nut and screw.

Horse in two halves, a little warp on the flat surfaces made glueing imperfect, the tail is imperfect like a real Horse's tail, and one leg broke off just to perfect the circle of imperfection.

Two cars, one all in one print (right)...

The other with black Flex TPC tyres. Vrooom!

Black feather earrings by Vivenda, also in black Flex TPC

Here they are again in Taulmann T-Glase orion blue :D

Stocking up

So there are still plenty of steps to go before I become the veritable 3D printing master, the Reprapper par excellence. But bit by bit I can see myself getting there.

I achieve balance through daily bed levelling.

I achieve inner warmth by tweaking the temperature settings depending on which kind of PLA I use.

I achieve inner calm through active cooling.

I'm not yet so advanced that I can look at an object and know exactly how I'd splice the G-code.

And I cannot script a beautiful vase whose surface maps my favourite equation.

These things will hopefully come in time however. Perhaps around the same time I figure out how to recharge my camera so I can show you what I've been making. For now you'll just have to make do with my monologues.

Fare well dear reader, until next time.
