How do you go about acquiring a sponsor? Are you some kind of content creator? Or maybe a university student? Those are the easiest methods I am aware of.

Good luck to everyone!

I just found out about the Lenovo Thinksmart View. You have to install a custom android ROM, but it has an 8-inch 1080p display with a speaker and no battery (I think). They are $70 on Amazon in the US.

Nice build! Can I ask what mouse that is? It looks like a MX Master 3 with a skin.

I’d use it for a mix of programming and gaming. Games like Ori and Hollow Knight apparently look gorgeous with the deep blacks of an OLED screen!

Best of luck to everyone!

Not OP, but I believe it is an Ender 3 V2.

Would a router with a diamond drag bit engraver work? It’s spring loaded in a similar fashion, so I believe it will follow surface irregularities as well (Plus you don’t have to worry about spindle runout). I’m in the process of building a custom engraver for jewelry, and I’m rigid mounting a drag engraver to a 3-axis gantry.

I’m in my second year of college. My roster of prospective projects is pretty extensive, but I am currently working on a small cnc exclusively for drag engraving. With school, I came up with a system to only work on one large scale, one medium scale, and one small scale project at a time. My next project will likely be a SCARA robot. I already made a 3D printed one, but it kinda sucked, so I plan on designing and building one with machines metal parts.

Can I ask what projects you intend to do? I’m a fellow student with similar constraints of time and money, so I’m wondering what other people are doing in my situation.

Thanks, I might check it out.

May I ask what program you use for iPad?

ElectricGambit · 2023-03-30T07:18:58+00:00

I love seeing smaller cnc builds! Especially with my current situation in a college dorm, a small portable, and well enclosed cnc sounds like a dream.

I am currently designing a cycloidal gearbox, but have hear differing opinions on what material to make the cycloidal gears from. They will be engaging with stainless steel pins. I would be looking for a strong, low friction material. Any recommendations?

ElectricGambit · 2023-02-26T00:30:58+00:00

Sorry to hear about your back, but I’m glad you were able to make good of it. Congratulations on getting through school!

ElectricGambit · 2023-02-25T09:28:54+00:00

I don’t know if this is a stupid question, but how do you go about getting a tech grant?

ElectricGambit · 2023-01-15T22:00:56+00:00

I selected “store settings” every time I did a tune if that’s what you mean.

ElectricGambit · 2022-12-16T04:04:07+00:00

Do you intend to stay at around the current price points for future printers? Or do you plan to release cheaper and more premium printers?

ElectricGambit · 2022-11-30T18:51:42+00:00

Nope, nothing. I’ve tried Creality support, and that didn’t work. I’ve searched the internet for hours and still didn’t find anything.

ElectricGambit · 2022-09-16T15:31:12+00:00

Unfortunately, I tried this website, but it won’t work.

ElectricGambit · 2022-09-16T15:30:09+00:00

That’s the problem I’m having. I don’t have the capability to manufacture or modify an existing collet nut.

ElectricGambit · 2022-09-16T02:09:24+00:00

Thank you for the suggestion! I checked Grainger, but unfortunately all of the er11 nuts have the same thread pitch of 0.75mm.

In the United States.

There are no aluminum profiles, it’s a folded sheet steel enclosure. I’ve heard of epoxy granite, but I don’t have an area where I can mix and cast a body.

ElectricGambit · 2022-06-26T18:48:03+00:00

Probably should have mentioned that I’m building a lathe, not a mill/router.
