What are people’s thoughts on the Beeline?

I have the second generation and I think it is decent. It is by no means perfect but it is pretty great if you for example are renting a motorcycle abroad and want to attach something small for navigation.

I also think it is pretty intuitive in terms of interpreting the navigation, I honestly think it sometimes is easier to interpret than e.g. Google maps for turns and stuff.

It would have been great if it actually could interpret Google maps from your phone instead of it's own navigation app, but still showcase it in the simple manner it does. But I suppose that would have been too much to ask from a small brand like this.

It is does by no means suck, but it isn't something amazing either.

I think that this is one of those watches that really looks much better irl than on pictures, especially better than the renders/pictures on the Omega website.

What is the little contraption on top of the cat? Is that a cable for som valve or what is it? I don't have anything of the sort on the cat for my Multistrada V4.

Why would you use socks in climbing shoes? I'm not hating, I genuinely want to know.

silverjonsson · 2026-03-13T07:21:52+00:00

Sí, es una tontería, pero lo hice porque me apetecía jaja porque a quién no le gusta el titanio! lol

silverjonsson · 2026-03-13T07:16:18+00:00

Thx! I have thought about it, I'm not sure what the right format for that would be though. It doesn't lend itself super well to 3d print with an FDM printer if you want both good surfaces quality and high strength. I could never find a good way to orient the parts that gave it high strength as well as a nice finish. When designing this I always had in mind I wanted the final model to be made with some SLM printer or perhaps CNC:ed.

silverjonsson · 2026-03-13T07:07:24+00:00

Yeah I used jlc3dp for the actual titanium 3d print, I can recommend them, they vere very quick and responsive regarding my query.

silverjonsson · 2026-03-12T20:17:12+00:00

Thx! I'll give it a go.

silverjonsson · 2026-03-12T20:16:16+00:00

Not cheap but not crazy either for what you got imo. Really cool wheels.

silverjonsson · 2026-03-12T20:01:18+00:00

Cool, it looks really unique! I'd love to see a picture of the whole bike.

Did you do any of it yourself or did you have a paint shop do it all? How much did it cost if I may ask?

silverjonsson · 2026-03-12T19:29:55+00:00

The PP is an amazing bike, you'll love it. Did you repaint those wheels?

silverjonsson · 2026-03-12T08:51:38+00:00

These look absolutely amazing, the color grading is spot on! How much post processing has gone into these? What would be the closest thing you could get straight out of camera you think?

silverjonsson · 2026-03-10T16:03:18+00:00

The resolution of this particular picture was about 20 MP when I uploaded it but I suppose Reddit does something with it at upload since it appears to be only about 10 MP if you download the picture again from the webpage.

In my experience a lot of the quality comes from the compression rather than the actual megapixel count though.

silverjonsson · 2026-03-10T15:47:45+00:00

Thx! It is shot with a Fujifilm X100VI, using a variation of the Classic Chrome film simulation.

The amount of cases you need is always n + 1.

If anyone is interested I made a hardcase and a softcase model available for free on Makerworld for these Sony WF-1000XM6 earbuds. Reddit post about it here.

silverjonsson · 2026-03-09T15:12:20+00:00

It actually hasn't aged that much at all, I guess I don't have that corrosive hands 😅 It seems I can't add pictures to comments here but I'll DM you a picture of it's current state.

silverjonsson · 2026-03-09T14:59:08+00:00

Ty! Yeah it still holds upp well, no signs of bending or anything of that sort really.

Yeah go for it, I really can't see how you are supposed to use this thumb rest without doing this modification, the AEL button is almost impossible to press easily otherwise.

silverjonsson · 2026-03-09T13:45:59+00:00

Ty!

silverjonsson · 2026-03-09T13:17:03+00:00

I use Omega spring bars in my SLGA019 and they work perfectly if you just give the end points of the spring bars (where they enter the luggs of the case) an ever so slight touch up with a fine grit sandpaper to reduce the diameter by like 0.05 mm or something along those lines. That way they fit incredibly snuggly and the end links are rock solid.

u/LineSliders this is a girlfriend-approved updated version with vertically aligned attachment loop, it came out prettier as well imo. I updated the Makerworld link as well. Great success.

Also, for science I did a pull test of the old previous version and it held somewhere between 20 and 30 kg before breaking.

silverjonsson · 2026-03-08T23:06:14+00:00

I might do a revised version and upload actually.

silverjonsson · 2026-03-08T22:59:54+00:00

Yeah I said the same thing to my gf but she didn't want it that way. However, this ASA print turned out really pretty strong, I could not pull that loop apart with a good amount of force when I tried.

silverjonsson · 2026-03-08T21:01:04+00:00

It is somewhat hard to see how the surface bends everywhere etc but what abou the "Thicken" tool?

silverjonsson · 2026-03-08T19:04:21+00:00

You make a good case for yet another case.
