I’m not sure I’ve heard of a distro that doesn’t provide a separate iso when providing the nvidia drivers ootb…

I agree that it’s unfortunate/confusing, but I think its more the norm to have to pick the nvidia image.

If you have an example I’d love to see it. I’m curious how it’s implemented.

Apple released account merging a while back and there was a load of complaints about broken stuff, so I held off.

Has that stuff been fixed yet? Anyone have a good experience merging their Apple accounts?

That’s a nice looking tool but I have a slab and 123 blocks and I should be able to build up square without adding a single purpose tool.

That’s a bling build for sure. I’m not going to go quite so CNC but I did order some GE5C for the mod.

Need to decide if I’ll pony up for Ti backers or wait and see. I haven’t needed them on my trident but that’s a different animal.

A voron trident 3d printer sitting idle. 

It is an LDO 300^3 kit with some mods like CL tap, Xol, BFI, annex clips + filament latches, and a bento box for filtration.

I’m building my first #voron 2.4 to go alongside my Trident

What are the must do mods? BFI/BZI, Xol+Tap are what I have planned so far.

Right now, the only way I can find to re-orient a clone is to use Compounds or the KiCadStepUp addon workbench.

Both seem like needlessly complex workflow additions.

Question for @freecad.bsky.social users: Is there an easy way to reset the origin of a clone after placement?

Placement is not preserved on export. I want to export STEP files from #FreeCAD with proper orientation for #3DPrinting

That’s super cool. I wonder what kind of results you’ll be able to achieve. What kind of compound are you planning to use?

What’s the best filament dryer on the market?

I have an Eibos Easdry which does a good enough job on drying but doesn’t fit spools with spool or AMS weights and is side loading, which is a pain point in my setup.

I’m looking at the Polyphemus at the moment.

Adventures in raising a 4 year old goth kid:

4yo: “Dad, my friend's favorite color is Red. That is the color of Santa and Death”
Me: “Santa and what?”
4yo: “Death, red is the color of Death. And Santa.”

The bed of a 3D Printer seen with a filament swatch and a voron cube printed from Ambrosia Gray ASA. Next to the filament swatch are 5 other gray swatches from my collection as a comparison, those colors are Polylite Steel Gray, Overture Space Gray, Prusa Silver, Paramount3D Prototype Gray, and Paramount3D Silver Dollar. Next to those the green tone in the ASA is pretty obvious.

Got my first spool of Ambrosia ASA calibrated today.

It’s a lovely filament.

Flowed really well, zero warping or distortion, and very normal print settings.

The color is also really nice, but I wouldn’t have called it simply “Gray”. There is quite a bit of a […]

Setting up an #Immich install to see if I can get it to replace iCloud Photo Library.

Three samples of a 3d printed radius gauge for the back of a set of calipers sitting on a 3d printing bed. One is attached to calipers to indicate how the tool works, another is sitting right side up but not attached to calipers to show the relief to fit the caliper bolts, and a third is flipped over to show the embedded label that has the equation required to use the tool.

A lot of people have done versions of this tool, but none of them were right for my calipers or the magnets I had on hand.

And worse: None of them used an open CAD format that I could edit to correct that.

Here is my libre version of a radius tool for the […]

A screenshot of the freecad user interface showing a model that has two recessed cylindrical pockets. The pocket parameters are open in the window and show that it is has the type: "two dimensions", the first length is 3.5mm, and the second length is -0.5mm. This creates a feature that is 3.5mm deep with the lower 3mm of the cylinder pocketed and the top 0.5mm of the cylinder remaining solid.

If you're coming to @freecad.bsky.social from other CAD packages and are missing pockets that are offset from the sketch plane, here's a trick

You can do that with a two dimension pocket, adding the offset to your first length and setting the second length to the negative offset

Fellow 3D printers of the internet, hear my call:

Is there a better way to set elephant's foot compensation than guess and check?

I'm printing pretty perfect first layers on my voron but have a bit of elephant's foot and I'm here just futzing with numbers and seeing what comes out.

A screenshot of FreeCAD showing a simple rack for holding wire spools. 

The feature tree shows that I was not diligent with naming my features as I should have been.

Autodesk unceremoniously and opaquely didn’t renew my Fusion for Startups account

It’s time to see if I can properly commit to FreeCAD for my 3D Printing work

The toponaming fixes and reusing sketches are changing the game for me and the three variants of my wire rack knocked together real quick.

A small blue 3d printed die showing the Y or N on its two faces. 

It's clearly so much cooler than flipping a boring old coin.

The other day I saw a cool D2 someone was resin printing and I wanted one that was FDM 3d printable.

Here it is. Now you need never make a decision again!
