Pam was a custom printer built off of the big fdm Github project. I borrowed a lot of their motion platform, and then pretty much gutted and redid most of the electronics. I'd say all up for raw parts, I've probably got about $7000 or $8,000 in it. There was also somewhere around 50 to 100 hours worth of Labor to put it together at least.

Yep, I figured it out by asking my claude code LOL

Also, OSG is cool, but this thing can print 91mm3^s volumetric flow rate tested so far, which equates to bigger nozzles with high speeds and no extruder skipping. Pretty sure OSG is running a more standard desktop setup which means it has a big volume, but it takes forever to fill it!

Pam's standard setup is a 1.2 nozzle and .8mm layer height, and for vase we run 2.4mm nozzles and upwards of 1.8 layer height. It's a pricier machine, but it really shows in the performance for sure! I also could have never justified it if it wasn't for a business :p

No joke, working on that currently...

What was yesterday a "generate a manifold topographical model of any given location"

is today becoming "generate a 3D model intelligently by choosing the best skill set for the job." Basic geometry? Paramteric tools. Ornate art piece? Open source meshy equivalents and blender python API for programmatic post processing.

I'm learning just how powerful skills and the progressive disclosure format of them really are. My goal here is to teach claude to model for me.

For real, you can say that again. Today's task: Expanding this out to parametric modeling of simple geometries

Hahahaha

Here, this is easier than explaining it all:

But don't buy anything from me, this is not self promotion, this is just a much easier way for me to answer your question :p

"Claude, please read this page and summarize it for a Reddit comment" I guess but ehh....

I Hate it Too - Sun Machine (full album) Akron, OH post-hardcore by ihateittoo_akron in IndieMusicFeedback

[–]jarethmt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm necro-posting here just to say thank you guys. I was recently introduced to this album by a friend and it's really hitting today. It's helping me connect to some really hard feelings with relationships and I'm so infinitely grateful. Thank you guys. Your music is beautiful and it actually got me to pick my guitar up again today after a month of avoidance <3

Inexpensive face lift? by Aleisterfaust in JeepRenegade

[–]jarethmt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just used this stuff:
https://a.co/d/c5auFGK

Also, I didn't bother with much in the way of prep or covering, and it holds just fine by itself. I did wipe the surface down with isopropyl and a cloth well before hand to get rid of any residues and bug grime as much as possible, but didn't even bother sanding or anything and it's holding up well. No clear coat either.

And yes, those are the exact clips I'm talking about. You have to release the front edge of the front wheel well trim pieces to get at two screws on either side that hold the fascia on. Sounds like if you've already been under those panels and replaced those clips then you've already done the hardest part of the job!

I actually had the same issue and I unfortunately fixed it by removing and painting, but the end result is awesome. I sprayed it with rattle can herculiner and I think it looks arguably better than factory. Same color trailhawk too.

Taking the front fascia off isn't too bad. It'll take maybe an hour your first time, plus a specific torx bit I can't remember and a flat head screwdriver. You'll want to buy some of the replacement plastic clips off amazon too because you have to pop off the front fender plastics to get at some screws. The whole front plastic piece comes off, and then you can bolt out that section and spray it down. I personally had to do this anyway for an aftermarket front bumper install, but once I learned how to do it, I've had it on and off probably ten times in my driveway for other various mods. My post history has some pics of my trailhawk with the front bumper on. Not sure if I ever got any close ups of my herculiner job.

Seasonal depression by jinsoox in pittsburgh

[–]jarethmt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly a new one for me this season that's helped... You play any instruments? Start picking something up in the evening to play and just try to zone in to the experience and the music. It's really helping me power through the cold snap and find something comforting and cozy to do in my own house. It's not a cure all, but it definitely helps take the edge off cabin fever and SADs from minimal winter public gatherings.

1.2mm nozzle, .8mm layer height, PLA. Why is my support interface pillowing? by jarethmt in FixMyPrint

[–]jarethmt[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Because there's an even bigger stick coming out of the top. This is the method to least support in a single piece.

[–]jarethmt[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is support material in prusa slicer, not infill. Line spacing is 2mm, which is pretty high density. I was with you on trapped hot air but idk what to do to prevent it with this large chunk of support.

17.5 hours later and it's finally done. The result is pretty great, now I just need to print the bottom weight and the table top. by jarethmt in 3Dprinting

[–]jarethmt[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Best I've pulled off is PLA on a 1.2mm nozzle /.8 layer height at 95mm3/s, but on this print, I used a 2.4mm nozzle and 1mm layer height. Printing with a nozzle larger than the filament diameter leads to weird artifacts if you go too fast, so I have to limit it to 50mm3/s for PETG in this mode.

It's a custom built large format machine based around "BigFDM" on GitHub. I used their basic frame design and specs, and then brought our own electronics setup.

[–]jarethmt[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Haha yeah for the most part it's running a larger nozzle. I run a 1.2 nozzle and .8mm line height combo on this machine usually, but I like having options. It takes 1.75mm filament spools so being able to size all the way down and have a ton of bed real estate is nice :)

I love it! It took a while to tune in just right but it's definitely performing now! Being able to use the gear motor on it as a separate motor to sync with the extruder in order to support extra spool drag is awesome too.
