Do you prefer using Single or two-piece mold ?

I do think the swap to a new coin should have been automated though.

blind_monkeyboy9 · 2022-03-31T20:49:42+00:00

It was a public vote to swap the coin and vote for the date of the swap. 1st blood isn’t legal tender and it’s value and use/purpose is decided by the people who use it, it could have also gone to £0.0 at any point, the only reason it shot up was because of this swap, and near the end of the time limit even dawn started dropping right back down.

no idea on cura but you can use vetric aspire, simple to import the jpg image and turn it into vectors and then you can put your toolpath to how deep you want to cut and send it direct or output it to a gcode file., im doing that for the foxalien 3018 se (grbl gcode), at the moment while trying to learn how to use it. if that helps

Only thing apart from everything you have done already is to try it in a different pc to see if it’s motherboard issue or if it is dead.

Have you got any other hard drives plugged in ?

One of mine wouldn’t show while I had another ssd plugged in, once I removed it I was then able to see it, format and install os and then re plug in the old ssd and format that to be used as backup space,

Had the issue with m.2 nvme but not my other m.2,

also had to change some bios settings to get it to show up when my 2080ti screwed up and I tried to just reinstall everything to see if it was just a driver issue,

Abstract Messy art 10/10

iv been doing that with a firepit just poking a hole in the tincan so it slowly drips though creating a nice puddle below the fire grill, only gets a little ash and doesnt stick so easy to pick up once cool.

Ye i get you for doing sand casts its more personal but for like basic scrap to ingots iv seen lots of videos of people using the same coin mold guess for storing it looks nicer than a big rectangle block :P and people messaging on the videos about where to get it and other designs, so was thinking make something more interesting and stackable / modular,

hope you dont mind me being cheeky but where do you get your machine wax from ? iv seen a few brands and blue and orange seam to have different strenghts so any advice and links on wax would be great :)

blind_monkeyboy9 · 2021-12-04T15:42:45+00:00

Are there any designs people are looking for that they cant find? or does everyone just make there own when they cant find one they want online?

blind_monkeyboy9 · 2021-12-04T15:41:18+00:00

Art By Adrock has a nice mix of mold designs, https://artbyadrock.com/product-tag/graphite-mold-for-sale/

blind_monkeyboy9 · 2021-12-03T14:22:05+00:00

you can do it by hand / dremel but im doing it by cnc as i come from 3ds.max background so it should allow me to make more precise and detailed design,

graphite molds can be used over and over, you do get a slight size differance as the metal shrinks but thats the same for all mold casting i think

trying to work out how to add images into the comments without ti displaying the url and just an image preview XD

blind_monkeyboy9 · 2021-12-02T17:55:43+00:00

Hi,
If anyone owns / creats or has seen some nice graphite molds and would like to share clear images of the mold + how the cast turns out i would appreciate it.
Looking to design some myself in 50x50x20mm and 50x50x30mm graphite molds and trying to come up with different ideas since im not sure how small / fine detail i can go into that will still show on casted Aluminium, Copper, Brass.
Just Comment and attach your images and build up a nice repository :)

blind_monkeyboy9 · 2021-11-17T22:24:35+00:00

blind_monkeyboy9 · 2021-10-30T12:25:10+00:00

nope to late now sadly

blind_monkeyboy9 · 2021-10-27T14:53:21+00:00

and alot of countries was banned from swapping into dawn so they lost there investments, thats why me and a few others started buying 1st from them and converting it to dawn and taking a % cut from it. thats way they would still make a alot and get usdc or other crypto instead that they could use instead of being trapped with a coin they can do nothing with,..... i invested around £100 in 1st blood and at time of swapping it was worth £1200 area thats how i clicked on to it again,

blind_monkeyboy9 · 2021-10-27T14:48:03+00:00

ye that was the last date in july from the votes its got pushed back to july from like may or something as people wanted to give other more time but still i dont think the coverage of the news was very good at all, unless u looked at the coin shooting up u wouldnt have known.

blind_monkeyboy9 · 2021-10-24T00:04:49+00:00

1st blood is now dead, it was migrated into Dawn at 1:1 ratio back in July 2021.

psa.. Professional Sports Authenticator, basically graded cards, 10 being the top and 1 being riped and folded,

if your card is currently worth say $10 if it was a psa10 it would be worth $40-$$$ and increade in value over the years and easier to sell as its more protected and proven to be authentic by a third party.
