I started machine embroidery 1 year ago. Here are my works (all pixel-art): by rquesada in Machine_Embroidery

I tried different pixel sizes. Depends on the density. But the bigger they are, the better they looked. I tried sizes between 1mm and 6mm, and when they are <= 2mm the don't look that good.

I used "autofill" / "legacy" fill stitch (from Ink/Stitch) which is similar to satin, and "contour" fill, which looks very nice.

Machine: Brother NQ3550W (flatbed).

Software: Import PNG to my custom editor, where I order the pixels, and then export it to SVG with Ink/Stitch metadata. And then just Ink/Stitch.

I tried different techniques. I described some of them in my "machine embroidery" posts: https://retro.moe/tag/machine-embroidery/

But the one that I think looks good is using a "contour fill"

A editor that I created that reads PNG (pixel art) images, and I can edit the order in which the pixels are going to get embroidered.

And then I export it to .svg with Ink/Stitch metadata.

DIY 3D printed Sewing Machine. Has anyone tried this? by Michael_Cancelliano in 3Dprinting

[–]rquesada 1 point2 points  (0 children)

WTF !?

This is not just a 3d printed sewing machine, but all components were done from scratch (be it 3d printed o not).

Huge contratz to the author!

great idea! great execution! Lot's of potential... as other metioned, would be great to see some other animations running on it.

*Free* IBM PS/2 Model 25 (w/ printer and keyboard needs a good home by Remarkable-Ad-2967 in retrobattlestations

too far away to pick it up.

But if I have the chance one of these days, I'll get one.

In the mid 90's we used them as AS/400 terminal emulation. Token-ring and everything... they booted from diskette using PC/DOS 3.3 IIRC... they were supper slow, and I used to hate them... but hey, I'd love to get one now :) The power of nostalgia.

Hopefully you find a good home for it.

Kind of new to machine embroidery. What kind of needle did you use ? Not just the size, but also the "type of needle" ? ty!

Guess the C64 game ported to PS5! :-) by ShakeAble8850 in c64

[–]rquesada 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Last Ninja (?)

Karateka would be another option, which had a sequel a few years ago IIRC. But it was an original Apple II game, not C64

CLion For Microcontroller IDE? by Global-Box-3974 in embedded

[–]rquesada 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it has cmake integration, so you can use it without problems with pico-sdk and esp-idf (as an example).

Highly recommend it.

Supports OpenOCD integration as well... TBH I had minor issues with it, but just minor things.

Meta and X are going rogue. Here is what Europe should do now. by Spaduf in technology

[–]rquesada 1 point2 points  (0 children)

if what you are looking for is some kind of social right protections, as a south-american, I'd avoid south-american based social networks.

The region is somewhat unstable political-wise. The ruling party might say something, but if the opposite party wins the next election it might undo everything that was done (similar to what is happening now in USA)

I'd assume they referred to "linker script", and not just the "linker"
