but I think it might be!
Fuck it 🤷🏻♀️ my uncle dropped 8k on a 3D printer post-divorce, and if working on a lil art and engineering makes him feel better I can support that.
3d printers are the new classic car that needs a little bit of work.
Ugh, I have both and now I question what that means about me.
slaps roof This baby has been going since the early '20s. We’ve been through a lot together, almost every part has been replaced, and it’s still not reliable!
If you have one of the consumer metal printers and a consumer plastic printer, it means you can print your own car parts from aluminum, iron, or lower carbon steel pellets, and all the trim with the plastic printer.
Congratulations, you have a body shop, and an example car.
Getting ahold of the original specifications becomes the biggest challenge at that point, so that you can manufacture the parts within tolerance.
How does it get to the right temperatures??
What? The printer? They use metal pellets and AFAIK, you program the printer to heat an induction coil to melt the pellets.
Yes. Very cool. Thanks for the explanation.
I have a 3D printer, and a Suzuki Samurai. More than a few parts for the 35 year old Suzuki have been printed by me.
Is…to print sex dolls? Is that the goal? Building the girlfriend?
No, there is no goal only you’ll be so busy calibrating and optimizing and upgrading the printer you won’t have time to be lonely.
There is only printer.
fucking microplastics
And macroplastics
sounds good!
