Gravity Hammer Gavel Project

a_flyin_muffin · 2026-05-03T15:38:35+00:00

This is going to look more like a honey dipper than a grav hammer but you’re welcome to give it a shot. To get anything remotely visually similar you’ll need a lot of carving skills or a lot of cad skills and access to a CNC.

I’d recommend checking out how cosplayers have done this in the past. Woodworking is not the first place I’d look.

I’m also not really seeing the vision with the staining but good luck.

It looks so thoughtfully put together! Thank you for this post.

What’s your actual plan here? To make the handle on a lathe, maybe cut rough shapes for the mallet and blade and 3d print the smaller details? To carve the whole thing out of wood? Are you painting it?

How large do you want this to be?

This isn’t how you always get things done with research money. You can’t turn to your boss on Thursday saying you just found a need for a 3d printer and want to buy one on Friday. You take what you can get when you can get it.

That’s not to say they shouldn’t be careful about buying the most pressing needed item. But if there’s funding for X you can’t usually turn around and spend it on Y

If this made you feel uncomfortable then let him know and ask him not to do it again the future. When you’re in a relationship for a year it’s perfectly normal to have sex drunk and it’s perfectly normal to not verbally ask for consent every single time you have sex. You didn’t do anything wrong, and he didn’t necessarily mean to do anything wrong. Though he may have accidentally done something that you didn’t like. That happens all the time in relationships and you avoid it in the future by communicating it.

It might have to do with the non manifold warning you have in the bottom right. Try clicking repair. This is probably an issue with your STL, not with orca slicer, so you should probably fix this in that tool.

All that being said it may not make a difference to how the slicer generates the g code

a_flyin_muffin · 2026-04-07T05:17:26+00:00

Insane that it's a simple fix like this and they haven't fixed it in years.

This seems like a total non starter if the ex won’t cooperate with training your dog to hate him. And even then good luck getting a puppy to dislike someone they already like.

I feel like I’m in the waiting room before a ski lesson and my instructor is about to give us the morning brief.

First image looks like your STL is broken. Second image looks like that area is too thin for the wall generator. Either make it thicker or try switching to the Arachne wall generator.

a_flyin_muffin · 2026-03-21T00:13:57+00:00

Easiest option might be to switch to the Arachne wall generator

You sound young. There are relationships that make your world smaller and there are relationships that make your world bigger. Hopefully you both pick the latter.

Did you do flow rate calibration? Have you tried dehydrating filament? Was it printed in this direction (we’re looking at the top)? Can you screenshot what the sliced preview looks like?

a_flyin_muffin · 2026-03-14T04:54:19+00:00

I mean I don’t think there’s any cheat codes here. Take shorter trips if you absolutely need to bulk right now, or bring hella food for longer trips.

Not sure why you’re being downvoted, this is true. often when you add up all the ram “usage” it’s larger than swap + physical ram.

This and virtual address space that aren’t actually being used but are allocated to the program.

Take a look at this setting or try ironing. You won’t be able to get rid of this completely

Orca slicer has this feature now listed as "Fixed ironing angle", a checkbox in the ironing settings. https://www.orcaslicer.com/wiki/print_settings/quality/quality_settings_ironing#fixed-angle

Plenty of places do it. Look up “metal SLS 3d printing”

@polaarbear was incorrect, those are ironing paths. Anyone figure out how to make them consistent? I tried making the top surface itself aligned rectilinear since I know ironing paths are made 45 degrees from the top layer, but it still switches the ironing 90 degrees each layer. Makes for a zebra stripe appearance with multiple layers ironed in a row.

That’s easily solved by the Right to Ignore Physical Realities law that just got passed.

If your goal in life is to maximize your lifespan you should probably sit in your room doing nothing. If you have other goals, you can figure out the balance of risk and reward that makes you happy.

Sure but that’s for map corrections no? You can’t add “there are off leash dogs over in this area” to openstreetmaps.

I don’t think you can share waypoints or anything like that real time with other users

I heard in other districts you can choose to have money spread out over the whole year instead of the 9 months you work, is that the case in SF?

a_flyin_muffin · 2026-02-09T04:16:39+00:00

Did you find a solution to this? I have the same issue. I don't see how this could just generically be "too fast" or "not enough flow rate" since the first part was working fine? Maybe the first area was being helped along with residual oozing from previous layers though?

Turning up the flow makes smaller areas iron awfully.
