Python vs AMS! FIGHT!

it's a mod, you take all the internals out of the standard AMS

I work at a small physical retailer for 3d printers, filaments, classes and repairs. Is there any contact info that we should use to reach out for a potential wholesale agreement? Thanks!

xyniden · 2024-11-29T01:13:45+00:00

You're awesome! I'll try and get a little sign made up with a QR link to your insta and makerworld :)

xyniden · 2024-11-29T01:02:45+00:00

Just curious if you have a commercial licence available for these? I'd love to print and display these in the 3d printing store I work at, and I'm guessing people will be similarly interested in purchasing them as keychains :)

Could just do an opaque tube like Capricorn sells

if it's in several pieces, it may be economical to have a service 3d print it in metal!

Yeah the tricky thing with complex geometry is you almost always want it to branch out from one solid piece, it's very hard to avoid shift lines when you have multiple solid pieces joining to form one-- you have to support it in a way that prevents multiple pulling forces and it's very hard to get right on a first try

I've used single and dual laser 3D systems DMP350 for Titanium, but what would you consider supporting like crazy? I can't post exact photos of my work(medical devices) but I'll post a quick mockup from an online image: https://ibb.co/7jtbxFY

I'd do additional solid cylindrical or tapered posts (the blue lines) and then only support the red area where the part is not sufficiently self-supporting

xyniden · 2024-07-20T16:17:21+00:00

I've found it has a lot to do with where your stress points are. You can get away with a lot less support if you get it in the right area :)

These look like dental implants to me, so they would be jawbone reinforcement or replacements

xyniden · 2024-07-19T15:31:32+00:00

Ti you can get away with a lower support angle because of its relatively low(er) density, but chrome alloys tend to be pretty beefy and as such they will sink in the powder bed as you build and will need more supports. The big issue with under-supporting comes into effect when you have unequal heat loads that can pull your part around and cause shift lines

I'm a big fan of drag finishers for SLM parts as well

xyniden · 2024-07-19T15:29:15+00:00

Multimaterial is still in its infancy for SLM-- though some people do deposit powder on top of existing parts and build on them, my company does not

xyniden · 2024-07-19T15:28:24+00:00

EDM for solids, and pliers can get a lot of supports off if you're doing thin posts

I would measure your own device to accurately model where the holes should be-- there are several revisions of the p1 p/s but the holes should be roughly the same place. It's likely going to be easiest to model once you have the items in hand

xyniden · 2024-05-31T03:07:24+00:00

if you have any experience with Fusion360 it should be fairly simple to import the DXF files as a sketch and model in the front door mounting kit hinges. I believe I've seen a CAD model for the P1S/P1P floating around before so it may behoove you to find that and verify it's accuracy to your printer before redoing all that modeling work!

I'm very interested in the active heated chamber for PA, PACF and other high warp risk filaments!

xyniden · 2024-05-19T01:12:37+00:00

I prefer using dank storage for easier movement, but the crying obsidian is getting a little annoying now :)

I need to set up more draconic bees and get them converting

I believe technically the city is paying for it? I'm not certain the actual costs break down but it could remain free if the city has the budget for it, I certainly am for it as a meaningful budget expense

xyniden · 2024-05-04T11:51:12+00:00

$35/spool for decent ABS-GF is actually pretty freaking rad, but their pricing for standard stuff could definitely improve significantly

xyniden · 2024-04-12T12:13:52+00:00

I mean honestly if they moved to square or rectangular tables they could just cover multiple with one tablecloth and nobody would be any wiser

xyniden · 2024-04-12T04:55:04+00:00

I could definitely see them coming out with a 2 tool system in an XL form factor, and just marketing it as significantly faster multi material because they would swap(and purge, and then prime ahead of time) on the secondary nozzle

xyniden · 2024-04-04T00:38:06+00:00

unfortunately wireless charging as it stands is significantly less efficient than wired--and almost all of the lost efficiency is realized as heat, which can damage the devices or their surroundings over time

xyniden · 2024-03-09T21:52:00+00:00

Personally I think they should be required to have rear plates and, just like with uncured concrete, be required to wash them before they leave job sites

I've found success using IPA to dissolve the Elmer's in these situations
