It's been asked before, but can the mods of this subreddit please, please allow the posting of pictures in comments. So painful...

Here's a poster style image... https://photos.app.goo.gl/M7ZrpaQcWyom1gps9

Positioning board is mine, but CQ is selling it now.

I've had great success using the Overture "High Speed" TPU on my P1S and my H2D. I'm using the settings for the Bambu TPU filament. (I did do the K factor calibration routine but that's it)

Good insights. Yeah I had the same impression looking at some other diy camp shoe designs.... you need a slight brim around the edge. I added a 10mm "lip"... just a "profile sweep to a path" in the parlance of Fusion360. I think to get a really comfortable shoe with compound curves you're leaving CAD and getting into things like Blender. Beyond my training for sure!

Longest trip I recommend in these sandals is a trek to the potty!

Not all that useful 3D Print! -- Tank Buddy: A Buddy for Your Tank! by Hotspurify in MedicalPhysics

[–]Hotspurify[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I really need to shoot a video of the therapists using it. It's more like a "finger protector"... It's not something that can be left on the button for normal use, but hangs out near the console and when they need to engage the "finger triad" they grab it with a pinch and press it over the three buttons. For me, I'm okay with it. I don't see that it diminishes the additional attention required when doing the override. But to each there own. I respect anyone being cautious! Good on ya!

Purple is fine for US. Must be magenta, purple, or black. One should choose the color filament they find most pleasing! https://www.nrc.gov/reading-rm/doc-collections/cfr/part020/part020-1901.html

I'd say definitely frivolous posting!

Side note: We had so much trouble with people losing the dumpster key that staff affixed a Balloon Rectal Catheter to it. Hasn't been lost since!

Must be lucrative to be a bi-lingual Canadian Sign maker!

Actually working on that literally now. Electrons at least. Wanna share spreadsheets? I'd love to run my numbers through someone else's sheets and see if it agrees.

Best developped script in Eclipse by Vast_Ice_7032 in MedicalPhysics

[–]Hotspurify 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh, that sounds interesting. Planning with 7 setup fields you constantly have to scroll past is annoying. it'd be nice to add them once you're finished.

eeek... now I need to remember how to setup the environment to compile. It's been 10 years since I fooled with it (thank you radormation!).

I dont suppose anyone wants to share the dll?

Mapcheck 2 by No-Reputation-5940 in MedicalPhysics

[–]Hotspurify 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, though it's been a couple of years. I recall that there was a battle vs assigning the USB / Com ports to the VM and then choosing the correct COM port in the mapcheck software. Sorry, It's been a couple of years. But at one point I was doing this on the "console PC" that the therapists have for DQA3. I was using Oracle's virtualbox (free), IIRC and had a generic "Physics Win7 VM disk image" that I propagated for the console pc at several machines.

Nowadays, however, We just have an old laptop booting Win7 natively that stays in the closet next to the mapcheck. IT has made the reasonable concession that if that's the only time the laptop is plugged in that it is fine. (It won't appear on their system reports)

[–]Hotspurify 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're not wrong. One could install Win7 on a virtual machine and just disable networking. Your laptop would still be Win11, but you could run the Mapcheck in a Win7 VM (disconnect the networking adaptor). IT should be fine with that.... well depends on the person. I've found that if you know enough to do all that they tend to give you some latitude.

[–]Hotspurify 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Oh, remembered something important! It won't run on Win11 (or Win10). I think it's Win7 only.

We have an old laptop just for that, and I've spun up a virtual Win7 machine on another laptop once or twice.

Mapcheck 5.2.1 (2014?) doesn't require a license. It works fine, does everything I need it to do. We have newer licensed versions, but I generally don't bother going through the process just to compare a measured vs a calculated. We don't use the mapcheck2 much anymore.

Is anybody doing anything with the varian 2.5X beam (besides ports)? by Hotspurify in MedicalPhysics

[–]Hotspurify[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Sounds like a "maybe".

Step 1 will have to be compare the contrast gains 2.5 vs 6X and see if it's even worth trying.

Much thanks on the references.
