    Glands

    Most glands have a flat side... I've jut been 3d printing a shim that goes on the inside of the box that has all the holes in the right place and has the flat side modeled in. Started doing that cos every time I went to undo the network cable it'd spin round instead of releasing the two tabs on...

    100 FPS - Is it worth it?

    what fps is the video? I can't honestly tell the difference (I game at 75 fps so maybe I'm not the best judge)

    3D Printing Material

    As a fellow Queenslander, I can tell you from experience, don't even bother with PLA... I made some PLA bases for my arches, figuring being in contact with the ground they'd be cooler, half buried in grass etc... nope... I have a PLA mount for the BBB on the back of the P10 panel... inside a...

    2024 is almost over: what worked, what might you change?

    What didn't work: 2022 pixels failing new black pixels failing recycling solar lights (signalling issues) What did work: Electric winch on the megatree saved my butt! - 20/10 would recommend! New kangaroos added a nice bit of fill 5px tall peace stakes as a garden edging - will be tripling...

    Pixel Lifespan

    I also have only just put out my first seeds, well my second seeds, my first seeds are still on their rolls in the garage after 2 years because 10cm spacing. I know my 12mm pixels seem to give me 3-4 seasons when they're good... 5-10 days when they're bad... A little disappointed that my first...

    When the ‘show’ is done for the night… what then?

    My last show finishes some time after 11, the lights auto shut off at 11.30, the time between is filled with blinking patterns... In fact it's so well automated at this point, I'm often asleep and don't even know what it's doing lol

    Bunnings Colored Coro 5mm

    I totally need to get more lenses, I'd love to get it done in one pass but it doesn't quite cut it even with more power, whatever lense it came with just drops off too much in 2mm lol Legit me too, never leave a laser unattended, and I got myself a nice 5kg CO2 extinguisher just for the laser...

    Bunnings Colored Coro 5mm

    All very good questions, it's a 900x600 (+/-) 100 watt CO² laser. I cut the 5mm corro at around 40mm/sec (tho don't quote me on that) at about 50% power in two passes with a 2mm step between passed - I have found this is the best way to get a clean front cut and an ok back cut, I cut the 12mm...

    Bunnings Colored Coro 5mm

    Hehe, I've been using Bunnings coro on my laser for 2 years now. Presently cutting out kangaroos from mine. Underneath are the snow flakes from last year.

    Seed Pixel mounting strip - 3D printed - Published on Thigiverse

    You have me wondering if I can cut this out of coro now, might be a good deal faster than printing if the fit a little poorer...

    What are you changing for 2024? Elements you are building, modifying or installing

    I may or may not toss a little effort into halloween, no new decorations but I have the p10 in the window and loud speakers... I've got a few repairs, the star on the mega tree took a dump last year, lost the last pixel on the first string, and one strip of the megatree was just a mess so...

    3d printing

    Yep, that's a model, how many did you need? if you don't mind the hike to Caboolture I can print that for you, if you need too many it might just cost you a roll of filament :D
