Well, I got one...

For prints requiring multiple parts, it's best to use the same machine for all the parts, unless the parts are for something like a game or instances where part size isn't absolutely critical.... I printed most of the parts for my Zelda Master Sword on the Centauri Carbon, However I printed the handgrip wrap on the Neptune 2D using White PLA+.  Now, came out just fine, no issues whatsoever, except the grip wrap was just slightly too small, and when I got the wrap partially on the handle, the print got stuck, and I was forced to VERY carefully break it off.... Printed on the Centauri Carbon, using the filament sample that came with it, failed due to layers not sticking well, anyhow, tried the part, and it fit very well.

Quote from: MicroNut on Jul 29, 2026, 12:38 PMI was talking to my friend Jim and he mentioned California bill AB 2047 which puts massive restrictions on using, buying and selling 3D printers. Here is the link to a very interesting video about it https://forum.sovol3d.com/t/us-states-passing-bills-restricting-3d-printing/9640

@Chris Savage - New York is looking at a similar bill.
@granz - the bill states you can be fined for selling or giving away non-compliant 3D printers!

At the end of the video the host said this could be the stepping stone to control other items such as computers.

Very scary! I may just not want to get into 3D printing if Big brother controls it.
Ridiculess.... all due to 3d printing fire arms.... taking things too far with some of this crap!

Sadly, funds will NOT allow Angela n me to attend.... If I could have, I'd have brought my Centauri Carbon, Mars 4 Ultra and Mercury Plus processing station.

Minimal Birdhouse – No AMS, No Glue



I printed this too late for this year, but I will put it out next year to see if we get any tenants.

The darker (Brown) parts were printed on my P1S printer.

The lighter (white) parts were printed on one the P2S printers.

Stackable Desktop Organizer with Drawers



This particular model is infinitely stackable. I actually added two levels to what I printed.

Here's what I printed with four levels of drawers. The sign to the right is a "gag" gift for a former co-worker who has a girlfriend named, Johanna, but whom he calls, "Ho-Ho".

The drawers are very simple and don't have any guides, but work at this scale.

Previously, there was discussion of an itinerary, to add some structure to the event. I remember discussion about presentations of current projects. Have we given any further thoughts to this?

My thoughts are that the first hour (12-1) should be to just catch up and chat (eat lunch?). Maybe have someone do some presentation at 1P. Not sure how long each block should be.

I will be there, though I will not be staying in the area. That is, I will arrive for the meetup and return home that evening. I will bring an array of things.

Me neither :) No more filling up the whole table. I'll probably just bring my laptop and my 2 FPGA boards since I am delving into FPGAs
