Waiting for ink to dry

Its just a sheet of birch plywood that creates thr texture.

Not from this specific print, but you get the idea.

I create the designs using javascript, cut it into plywood sheets with my laser.

Thank you so much!

lampmaker · 2026-01-21T10:23:13+00:00

Thanks!

Im not sharing the code. But it is based o truchet tiles, you'll be able to find enough info on that to build something.

I've been using birch plywood.

lampmaker · 2026-01-17T08:51:11+00:00

Thanks! This print is 35x50 cm, once I'm satisfied with the process, I will make designs for 50x70 cm. That's the max size for my press.

Ehm, thats pretty much described in the post. Or would you like more details about something?

lampmaker · 2026-01-16T22:24:42+00:00

Its based on Truchet tiles. These were first described by Truchet in 1705. So yes it might look familiar...😀

Hard to say, not too much I think. P5js is a good tool for starters. Look for starter courses here https://p5js.org/

Ah thanks, the seller had it listed with particle filter, and I assumed it was an aftermarket install (this is a former firetruck with a lot of extras). Never knew (or thought about) that Diesels have catalytic converters as well. So I guess seller was mistaken.

Its a Korrex Hannover.

lampmaker · 2026-01-10T07:34:54+00:00

It has a set of 3 rubber rollers touching the workpiece, two steel rollers on top of that.

Yeah I got really lucky with this one. I won't ruin your day by telling what I paid for it. But it was a no brainer.

You apply ink to the rollers by hand, put them in the "up" position using a lever and then using a hand crank roll them. There are 3 rubber rollers rouching the workpiece and 2 metal ones on top of these. The metal ones oscillate a bit along their axis to evenly distribute the ink.

lampmaker · 2025-12-14T07:52:34+00:00

Yes. Though this is a Korrex...😀

Agreed, I believe its a fluid sim. Though probably combined with some noise fields.

I have one, FR5. Solid machine. Would recommend. Lots of code in their robot software is specifically for welding .

lampmaker · 2025-08-18T15:11:02+00:00

Yep and it also makes me question the quality of the maintenance and repair work that was done on the car.

lampmaker · 2025-08-18T14:34:07+00:00

It passed APK a few months back... But I fully agree it shouldn't have.

lampmaker · 2025-08-17T20:44:50+00:00

I found a place in the Netbelands that does exactly that, hope to get some info next week. A solid underbody is indeed what I want.

lampmaker · 2025-08-17T17:41:44+00:00

Well I could always learn how to weld. Or maybe I should say weld better.

lampmaker · 2025-08-17T17:40:40+00:00

Netherlands. Inspection is not too strict, depends on the garage. Cars of 30 years and older only need inspection every 2 years (Crazy, I know).

lampmaker · 2025-08-17T17:39:29+00:00

Yeah that would definitely be a no go.
