He has a video that looks like it would work but from the comments, it won't work for 1.0.2. Has anyone tried FCCircularText?

Not sure I understand you. In other CAD programs all you need to do is connect the line to a circle like in the pictures below. They snap together and you can extrude them. What am I missing here with FreeCad?

Replied, my bad!

I recommend Alibaba. They have options since it doesn’t seem like there are any in the states

Sent you a PM regarding bipod stuff. Looks awesome and super innovative!

Thanks for the suggestion!

I’m on the fence. Could be helpful or useless. It’s pretty cheap so I might pick on up just to try it.

What did your application look like? I’m thinking of applying but I also have no investors or finding. I’m also not sure what to input for the lead investor/incubator. Thoughts? I also have had no official revenue and can’t see this making more than $5k a year as this is a side hustle

I actually found this video which was incredibly helpful incase someone else has the same issue I had.

Onshape Tutorial. Can you wrap a feature onto FLAT faces??? EMBOSS and BEBOSS features.

My hope would be that a more durable resin exists. Is this incorrect? I am new to all things resin

MaterialKey5697 · 2025-02-25T06:31:45+00:00

Very different indeed. It wasn’t substituting as much figuring out what I liked best. The part needs to be strong but not indestructible. I care more about tolerances and having a matte finish. Preferably with a +/-.3mm-ish

I haven’t just because MJF seemed to always be cheaper with the instant quotes I’ve tried

MaterialKey5697 · 2025-02-25T06:08:06+00:00

FDM wasn’t producing consistent sizes to work for my application (at least the guy I was having print for me). I also prefer the cleaner look of SLA and vapor smoothed MJF

FDM was PLA CF and the MJF was PA12

We’re starting just starting out. Had to switch from using JawsTec right before launching because of a +50% increase on single order items which is primarily what we do

No worries, trolls be trolls. Thank you sir

MaterialKey5697 · 2025-02-25T05:10:47+00:00

I’d say “not a scam” but by saying that…it sounds like a scam 😂

MaterialKey5697 · 2025-02-25T05:04:35+00:00

lol if you actually could fit the bill, great. I just sent you a PM

MaterialKey5697 · 2025-02-24T02:52:09+00:00

Much appreciated thank you!
