We hear a lot in LoothLand these days about 3D printing. I think it's an awesome use of that technology for what we all do. With my long history with AutoCad and 3D rendering in my previous life, I should pull the trigger on a 3D printer, but I'm just not ready yet AND I have no available space for one in my little shop or in my office right now. Yes, 3D printing is great, but sometimes, good ole regular printing can be a surprise frien…

3d Printing Bolts
I need to make a router template for a rear access control cavity in the PRS style of 1 vol +1 tone +1 switch? Placement of pot and switch holes aren't important, just the contours of the cavity so I can print a routing template. Does anyone have a file? Thanks! Justin
Morning, Just wanted to start a discussion and hear from others their experiences and preferences when it comes to choosing a 3d printer. I'm quite new to 3d printing and had an interesting journey to get started. Currently, I am running 3 printers: Ender 3 Pro, Ender 3 V2, and an FLSUN Q5. My shining star of the bunch is the Ender 3 V2 when it comes to print quality and speed, but the Pro has been an absolute tank since I properly set up…
Got my new printer a few weeks ago, and I have been loving life in 3D. I have made a bunch of cauls and tools in preparation for my next builds. On all the prints the first layers were a little fuzzy, so I did some research and adjusted the z offset. Got my first layers in the pocket. But that caused some horrible problems. Now I can’t even finish a print. First layer is fine. Second layer is hairy and fuzzy. Seems like the nozzle is dr…

Not exactly 3D Printing but it’s the closest sub-category. After backing an Indiegogo project back in August, my Seal Lite finally arrived! My first impression is that this thing is pretty freaking cool. I tested it out after skimming the tutorial (because that’s the true test of interface ) and received halfway decent results. I put maybe 20-25 minutes of use on it this evening, and I’m excited to give it a more proper dive over the wee…
I made a press along the lines of what was described in a John Calkin article in the Ken Parker issue of the American Litherie magazine. Today was my first chance to give it a shot and it seems to have done a great job. I diverged from the article by using Nylok nuts, which ended up being a total pain, definitely not worth The Certainty of it Staying Put. I also added 3D printed feet, so the threaded rod ends wouldn’t scar every surface…
