Quizzle for today: Do you have a 3D printer or plan on getting one?


I don’t. No plans to get one.
 

I have learned about 3D printing watching @knarthex operate his printer over the Hangouts. Aspects of 3D printer operation are beyond what think I can manage. Although, the slicing and scaling software  doesn’t seem too bad.

No.  Yes.  I've even paid for one (Ender 6 KS) but it hasn't shipped yet.  Soon!  (Maybe!)

 

I'm mostly interested in printing terrain, or other bits for mini basing, so FDM is fine for me for now.

I don't have one, nor am I planning to get one anytime soon. The cost is currently prohibitive, I'm ridiculously hamfisted with tech and I take bad reactions to a lot of chemicals. Add in the fact that we don't have a dedicated cat proof hobby space and it's a total no go at the moment.

 

I do look enviously at all the cool prints and stl packages that people post, but I've got a lot of minis to keep me occupied in the meantime. It's not like I'm going to run out anytime soon :poke:

No, no I do not... I'm not getting one... really, I can't. I mean its like adding on another hobby... I really shouldn't,  I mean can't... won't.   Aw darn, yeah I'll probably break down and get one.

I was very weary of getting one since I'm basically A-technical, but I found the Elegoo Mars to be almost plug and play.

With the help of youtube one can learn how to use the chitubox for supports and scaling very quickly.

I think you can manage!

Quizzle for today, 27 August 2020: What is your favorite vehicle from movies, books tv, etc?

 

That's a tough question.

I like a lot of stuff like the Batmobile ( Dark Night), The General Lee ( Dukes of Hazard), Starship Enterprise ( all series) etc etc.

The one I like most is probably KITT

 

@haldir There is a model kit from this from MPC.

Well, I do love a good spaceship. So I'll go with the Event Horizon. I mean, I wouldn't step foot on it. But it's still a neat ship. Especially the whole "turns you into a homicidal maniac" thing.
