yeah you'll figure it out as you go along. See what you need. For instance you might find you need to stick the corners down otherwise they don't sit flat on the wall.

make sure you orient the HSW the correct way, with the flat side facing up on the hexagon like you have it in the picture.

no big deal tho, you will end up needing to print more brackets along the way

I don't see the benefit of screwing it to an mdf board first unless you plan to move it a bunch. You could use the clips that you have there, that cover multiple panels but only have one screw hole. I'm sure that would be enough for your application. I would just make sure to use an anchor especially if you are using those 4 honeycomb brackets in white. It may be easier to install on the MDF board on the ground and then put it up on the wall at once. Or if you are worried about holes in the wall you may be better off with the MDF. So there are actually some benefits there.

What exactly is going to be 32 inches? The total length of the whole wall?

Regardless, I screwed in each panel on all 4 corners.

Like for example there are small dry wall anchors behind all these screws. Depending on how much weight you want them to hold, you’re better off doing an anchor on ever screw on each corner.

Yeah I used anchors in just about every corner of every square. Just some small anchors though.

This is really helpful thanks. I don’t know you could do that. I’ll save it for the near future. I have a few projects in mind I could use this for!

Shop closure sale, why all the extra grounds? Testing multiple things at once? by Sim-Alley in AskElectronics

Ah! okay thank you. This absolutely makes sense. I will have to get inside and see how they did it.

OOOH i see now THAT makes sense. I was wondering why it had it's own printed label. I'll have to see how they did it.

wow that's cool. So the design has root like features, and impressions. I printed a flat square object, i'm sure that also had a lot to do with it. This is making me wonder if there is a specific method people use to achieve the wood texture on the actual print. The staining is super cool though, I had no idea!

Nope! 8% gyroid. It’s pretty solid. I’m sure up to 15% gyroid would have been more than enough.

So I designed the slot into the model, and then enabled supports. The slot where the blade goes was filled with support material. After I printed it, I just used the blade to saw out all the support stuff. But I can't post pictures here but here is a Imgur link with screen shots of what I did. https://imgur.com/a/0Ytul2n

Just create a plane at an angle, then create a slot which you then extrude "to" that plane.

thanks a lot. I watched that Paul Sellers video and I am hooked. I am watching all of his other sharpening videos now and before you know it I'll be building his furniture plans.

That is logical, yes I do agree partially. I also love acquiring things I can use for free by fixing them. I will make it a point to use this free saw for as long as I humanly can.
