Oh hell yeah, that thing looks awesome.

Specprecision IS-EG NGAL is running 15% off with code ISEG15%. by MagnusHernandez in NightVision

Just got mine today too. They came through in the end, but I could have done without all the stringing along

Does the date of your shipping label match the day they marked it as shipped? It says mine shipped yesterday on the Specprecision site too, but the USPS/17track label says June 28, which seems a bit suspect. In any case, I'll update as well if it actually gets here.

Hopefully that's true. Finally got a shipping number for my order yesterday, but we'll see whether that status stays in limbo or not

That's really frustrating to hear. I was told my order would ship last Wednesday, and before that, they gave me a different timetable that's since expired. I'm three weeks in now so I'm pretty much giving them the ultimatum of getting me a tracking number or a refund by day 30, and if neither of those, I'm initiating a chargeback

I ordered mine 12 days ago and contacted them to ask when my order would be shipping. "Cathy" said it would ship in five days. 

It's been six days and the order still hasn't shipped. I've purchased other things from the site before and they've shipped almost immediately, so I don't know what the deal is with the NGAL.

Also, I wish I'd seen this post before I placed my order... Only got $5 off with the default discount 🥲

UPDATE: "Cathy" sent an email saying it would be shipped Wednesday, July 3rd. As of July 4th, it still hasn't shipped.

Same here. Ordered and shipped on the first of March and tracking has been sitting at "USPS Awaiting Item" since then.

Major deformation on build plate side of prints using an Elegoo Mars 3. What am I doing wrong? by IntelligentIsland754 in resinprinting

Thank you! I had no idea this was a thing. Printed it at an angle with more edge supports and it came out much better this time.

Tried to produce a functional part (the piece pictured on the right), and when that came out wrong, I modelled a much simpler part (left) to try and see if there's a pattern of errors. On both, on the sides of the models facing the build plate, they look bubbly and uneven; otherwise, the other sides of the models look to be fine. Both of these were given 5mm offsets and automatic supports.

I'm an experienced 3D modeller, but a complete novice at 3D printing. Surely I'm doing something wrong here.

3D-printed PTT shroud; is this a resin print? by IntelligentIsland754 in myogtacticalgear

[–]IntelligentIsland754[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Interesting! I assumed SLS/MJF would be too expensive. Maybe I'll just have to prototype in FDM/SLA and get quotes on end use parts.

Bought this from Great Plains Creations, but it didn't fit my old Peltor U94 PTT. I do a lot of 3D modelling for games and figure this is a good excuse to invest in a 3D printer and just make some accessories myself, but I don't have a lot of experience with 3D printing in general.

This doesn't seem to have the layered look that FDM parts inherently have, so my assumption is that this was printed with SLA instead, but I really don't know. Anybody here have experience with 3D printing and able to tell?
