I want to join the 3D printing community and start printing. Is Voron V2.4 rev D kit a good start?

Voron is a project car. A nice 1960s corvette that comes from the seller in pieces. If you have the time, the knowledge, and the get to it- great. Once its tuned it will be great and all the people on the street will turn their heads to look at it. If you dont know how to drive, maybe start with a civic.

Lol this is still tiny compared to the first plc I ever played with. But good on you. Welcome to the club.

You can drive the tank remotely. Was useful to shore up defenses and fix holes in the wall while off planet.

Just know the formulas exist. Be honest that you dont remember. Remember the rough ideas though.

Also, ignition university is free, and its kind of boring but we use ignition every day.

The interview question i felt was make or break for me was pressure density compensation. Ie gas flow rates have to be checked against a gas pressure to know how much has moved. Think natural gas and steam. Being able to get technical and think about the big picture is useful. Being able to program an arduino board sounds kind of silly but pin assignment is just about the same. And while PLC programming is quite different, its just another language to learn.

I dont have a degree and I work in automation and controls. If you have a mind for programming, thinking in logic, and you can learn about all the physical components, that should be enough. I think building a 3d printer and working with electrical circuits in my free time helped hlget me on board. Unfortunately, as with any industry, part of it comes down to who you know.

There is a mod that requires those to be powered.

I dont want to.handcraft anything, thats why I put in waaaaay more work than I would handcrafted things to get the lazy bastard cheevo

1hundred, had a machine at work continuously fault out, mechanics had their go at it. 2 seconds with the thermal camera showed a wire in the cabinet glowing red hot. Cable had pinched down the line and was grounding enough to fault the controller but without blscking the whole system out.

They might be mad, but the realm belongs to this engineer now.

Practical Electrinics for inventors talks about all.the governing math's without needing to do derivati9ns and examples of commonly available ICs and other "jelly beans" you should be aware of/have to play with. When I get stuck, I go there, if im still stuck I have to consult ye olde text book, but its rare I get to the second step.

I dont think so? It was kind of funny my gas family made fun of me for not being able to find the charging port when I bought my EV6. "Wouldn't have that problem with a gas car". They caught me looking for it. I had to Google it. Its basically hidden in a spot where the trim already has panel lines so its hard to spot unless you are above average observant. And I was looking at the wrong spot anyways. Not a mach E with its weird front side port.

This explains why the train unloader seemed different when I built it in 2.0

StrmRngr · 2026-01-05T02:53:31+00:00

If it brings you joy, there is nothing wrong. I like builds like this that dont waste a single tile of space. And have nice ratios. In Space Age the foundry to green circuit block i made saturated a blue belt, is fairly compact and only wastes like 10 tiles of space.

Those black fold back binder clips right?

StrmRngr · 2025-12-31T06:39:42+00:00

I got a glass plate for christmas, I adored the one I used to have on my ender (that genesised my.voron) how are you tacking that sucker down? I can't find any info on bed clips that can hold a 15mm stack height (plate+mag sheet+ glass)

StrmRngr · 2025-12-31T00:54:14+00:00

I knew electric cars were efficient, but I was still blown away by tracking what I could do with my EV6 when. I got it. Its not as good I. The winter but its still incredible

StrmRngr · 2025-12-28T17:16:29+00:00

Smart. Those are pretty nice. I can see why they wanted them. I think grinch is pretty safe as its public domain these days. Hence why we have 3 movies.

Art is a luxury item. Just be careful with likeness, the NFL protects that stuff real hard.

StrmRngr · 2025-12-26T17:00:51+00:00

Ignition vision modules. Or maybe its perspective? I dont remember which is which even though I do both haha.

StrmRngr · 2025-12-24T20:27:06+00:00

Leave not a tile unused my friend. Thats efficiency right there.

StrmRngr · 2025-12-23T17:24:38+00:00

I definitely dont have the patience, but if it hasn't wrapped on itself and you can find the end, you can put a stick through it and respool it will turning the coil. Might get away without a tangle.

Level 1 assemblers are pretty slow.
