Pretty pleased with that glow effect. Using Polymaker filament for this one, from their Halloween 2023 bundle.
Not too bad for my first resin print. My Halot-Lite’s been waiting for this day for about…9 months.
Took me some months of laziness getting a new rack and deciding the location in the garage, but the Creality Halot-Lite and wash/cure station are finally set up. Time to start working with resin alongside my FDM pursuits. #3Dprinting
(And, of course, a repurposed tiny fridge for a beer or two.)
My 11 year-old is becoming fascinated with technology and watching me repair and modify various computers and other electronics around the house.
His face when I gave him all of this tonight and asked him to make something of it as an open-ended adventure was one of those moments you remember as a parent, and they remember for the opportunity. #geek #parenting
15 minutes later, he’d already burned the most recent 64-bit Pi OS build to the SD card. A Minecraft server it shall be. #raspberrypi
Chicago afternoon hailstorm. These were some big ones plucked from outside, some over 2”.
…waiting for the first person to bootstrap #ChatGPT4 onto this guy right here.
@TechConnectify Speaking of timers, this has been kickin’ in its Bakelite shell keeping our yard lamp running for a long, long time. We’re in a part of Unincorporated Cook County without streetlights; very Atomic Age ranch, c.1957 neighborhood.
Ripped out the underlying Marlin firmware for the printer the weekend before last to switch the brains over to a Raspberry PI 4 running Klipper. It’s been a journey starting from literally zero configuration again and redoing everything--but worth it.
Here I’m using an ADXL345 accelerometer board to test the resonance frequency of my X and Y axis to see just how far I can push this thing. It now enjoys a considerably faster baseline print speed.
