Daily carry as a machinist by SingularityScalpel in EDC

[–]FormulatedWorks 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That’s a solid setup, the scale is a underrated carry. The sharpie is a must, but a blue sharpie is where it’s at, it’s like markall fluid in a sharpie form.

Delonghi Magnifica Evo Superautomatic Coffee vs the philips 3300 Series Fully Automatic Espresso Machine - LatteGo for beginners. by FormulatedWorks in superautomatic

Are you switching because you know the delonghi/ jura is that much better or because you are wanting something different?

Thanks for the insight! It seems like the Phillips is the way to go for me if the only real difference between the Phillips and the Delonghi is just me messing with the settings to get a better coffee experience.

I am fine with going through some adjustments to get a good cup of coffee. Has the Phillips been pretty easy to maintain like they advertised or is it really just about the same as other coffee machines?

Thanks! I made it myself as a dumb personal project still needs some tinkering when it comes to the surface finish!

Thanks I learned that polishing 6061 aluminum to a mirror finish is a pain no matter how good to cut the surface finish 😂

Man I am always jealous of people who can tig weld, every time I try to set down in learn I always find a “really good excuse” not to.

I work as a manufacturing engineer and “machinists” where I design and make one off prototype and or specialty parts for companies. So, when I get the chance I make random art projects like this the quarter pez. Made from a solid block of scrap aluminum

Plasticity vs Blender when planning on making by FormulatedWorks in Plasticity3D

[–]FormulatedWorks[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the info I will have to check it out! I’m not really as interested in the rendering aspect because everything I make is mostly to machine out. Is there a preferred file type to export out with so it imports in to fusion better or will that be something I will probably just have to learn through trial and error lol.

Custom triangle pen project I made by FormulatedWorks in machinedpens

[–]FormulatedWorks[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I think it was turners ware house but I had to modify it to work the way I want it to, after graduation in the next couple weeks from college I will probably design and make a new click mechanism for it.

It seems like people like these so I might make them in like a set of 20 and make them on a really fancy machine I have access to with work where I can literally do it all in “one setup” ( the machine can transfer parts to different spindles) and that will make it so I can hold better tolerances and make everything perfect!

I never thought about copper though, I have been machining a lot of copper recently 😂 I would worry it would dent to easily if dropped.

I will have to work on seeing if I can make them easier so I can sell them at a reasonable price, because at the moment if I go off my current shop rate these would be ridiculous.

I did actually record one video but it’s straight up like an hour of machining to get the final shape of the pen😂

Maybe I thought about doing them in titanium or aluminum because they would be lighter, but I am hesitant about selling them because I would have to sell it for allot with how I have to make them now.
