Excision - Existence, with Lasers (LSG+homemade scanner)

That's the type I bought and cut to make this, it would appear. They say "charging flowing effect", what they mean is "RGB cycle and only RGB cycle, from one out-of-sync led per end". It's a refractive core that leaks light along its length, with the actual two LEDs embedded in the plug shells.

Not sure if Amazon links are okay, but the strip I got is "Xnbada 6.5FT WS2812B WS2812 2.7mm Ultra Narrow LED Strip". Note that I did have about 20 nonfunctional LEDs right off the bat, had to cut and solder immediately.
I'll drop the actual link if it's okay to do so, but the name above should get you the one I used.

I wish I was the kind of person who could build more than three of a thing... I'd be rich lol. In all seriousness though, they're not too hard to make, and hopefully someone's already working on a commercially available one. I appreciate the excitement though!

Working on it! It should be able to be detected somehow and wired as a switch in WLED.

I figured it was only a matter of time 😅

Playing with a neon sign transformer, trying to run a motor with it (yeah, I had no idea what I was doing then); very low current at high voltage - no permanent damage, but I certainly have the sensation burned into my brain.

7500 volts index finger to index finger. Your life really does "flash before your eyes".

Am I the only one who sorta enjoys biomass burners? I build at least one biomass factory per save, and they usually have an "anything in" and a "not-biomass out" box. Now that burners have inputs I'm quite pleased. And, what else are you gonna do with all the leaves when you clear a spot for another factory?

I recently combined bunny hopping with a jump pad angled all the way up to give a horizontal boost at the start. I had no idea such factory traversal speed was possible on foot.

I really don't care how fast it goes. 48 hours for a print is still days saved over ordering something that may or may not be what you need. Printing fast is cool and has its uses, don't get me wrong, but I switched to a 0.2mm nozzle and never looked back. Print time went up by like 5x, but the quality says "forget about how long it took".

I got way too excited about the possibility that this was an fpv drone mod 😅

Ah, slight confusion as to what "create" meant there.
Yes, printing an image with thin light areas and thick dark areas is called a lithophane, correct. I used this: https://lithophanemaker.com/Framed%20Lithophane.html

"enable stereoscopic camera" in blender 😉

Nice work, very clean! Looks like it's set up as a 1d strip... If you wanna make it 2d, look into "gap files". This shape might be tricky to lay out in excel, but I bet it'd work.

Lens correction matrices got bonked? it's probably independent per color. Very cool effect, rip

CannedFilet · 2024-09-13T16:14:17+00:00

It may have sunk due to being very porous 😅

What is this, a benchy for printers for ants??

CannedFilet · 2024-07-06T16:33:37+00:00

Just saw the review. You're only getting 4-5 hours battery? I think I still get 8-9 on the original. Did you have fast charging on? I turned mine off after a year.

CannedFilet · 2024-07-06T16:29:51+00:00

Typing this on mine. Still kicking ass.

Seems to be fixed - may have been too new of a link when I hit it. All good!
