I normally live in the real world but I like to escape to the 3D printing world where conventional rules don’t apply and your thoughts can become a reality.

I've finally found an alternative bearing. This square rail bearings with PTFE inserts works really well!😁
I'm thinking a new Mostly Printed Printer for MRRF next year. A simpler easier to build version of the Mulbot. Maybe I should go for the mostly printed printer record?🤔

This company is paying for ads here and on Tic Toc under Wildoze. They are selling my designs on their personal websites without permission. I’ve tried to contact them with no response. What can I do about it?

Worked the first time! I am going to reduce the pitch of the spring and make it thicker so it has a little more torque.
Does anyone like over-engineered gift boxes which print in place, all look the same but each has a different way of opening? 😉 You're in luck, the first one for this year is on the printer.
This is my first torsion spring, I hope it doesn't take many revisions to get it right.

It’s running with a Adafruit motor shield at 100mm/s. We’ll see how it looks in the morning but there is no heat or debris from the PTFE so far. We’ll run until something breaks!

I FINALLY figured out how to do a removable cap for the katana!
What's cool is I got the idea from a spring loaded catch I made, which I got that idea from the first gift box I designed. Amazing how a simple idea can be modified for different applications.

I printed our family a new kitty.😻Since I have a IDEX I decided to print it in two colors. It turned out pretty good but lots of stringing…
We need to give him a name, any ideas? 🧏♂️

Really happy with the way the print in place vise turnout out. It took me longer then expected to get the design right because the lightening holes were causing overhang issues. I think I'll start on a version with interchangeable jaws as I would really like a set of soft jaws.

It works, first try! I got a little designing done during the holiday.😏 When you spin the pot, the tree spins three times faster in the opposite direction. 😎⚙️It’s hollow too, it only weighs 25g. 🤯 I’m excited to see how it works a bit bigger with some coextruded filament too.

Normally I design lightsabers to have as few pieces as possible but I a lot of people ask for full color single extruder versions so I decided to go the opposite direction with this one. There are locators for all the parts so its actually pretty fun to assemble.

A first look at the Muldex! A rep-rap IDEX with all the motors stationary mounted to the frame, it will have a auto-tramming belted Z with a kinematic coupled bed.

I love with 3D printing that you can overengineer things and it mostly only costs you your time.

I can say these LDO bearings are smooth as snot and the frame is square. 😁😎🤘
P.S. buy your extrusions precison CTL and rely on the cut for a square build by utilizing the end holes and button heads instead of inside t-nuts or corner brackets.

This time I went with a clear panel for the back cover, no mess to hide.
Fun fact! Supports at the bottom of the panel hold it in place so only two screws at the top are required to remove it for easy access.
Since LDO anodizes after the cut, it sure makes the ends look sharp.

Open source for the win!⚙️😆 At ERRF I admired the locking pivoting screen on the Prusa Mini so I copied the design for the Panneldue7i mount on the Muldex. Since the files are made public I could more easily make this version without a bunch of iterations. Thanks Joesph!👍👍👍

Bad news for anyone following my PTFE bearing concept. I finally found some time to test the bearing with some weight and the results were not good... The bearing was destroyed after 12 hours with 150grams hanging 3" off the center. I guess no 3D printer in this bearings future.

After four years of noodling, I think I finally figured out how to make the toggle lock parallel jaw gripper print-in-place. Its such a cool concept, I hope it works. I've gone through a rough patch of failed projects lately which can happen when you design mechanical things...

Pretty happy with how the independent Z leveling turned out. It consistently checks to less than a 30μm of deviation. A Mic 6 plate this size is only guaranteed flat to 120μm. I'm sure it would be even flatter if it was not for the magnet, and bubbles under the sheet.

Incase this helps anyone out, did you know plastic in your extruder gear can result in horizontal lines in you print that you may only be seen on tall prints? I was getting banding with my blades on the Muldex but only at the top so I thought someone was off on the Z. 1/2

Some people have labeled the Muldex as CoreXY but its actually a dual Markforged. I made this graphic to better explain the kinematics. Its similar to a CoreXY as the racking forces are equal but its doesn't have the same belt tension issues as each carriage has its own belt.

This hilt has interchangeable guards! There are three so far, there will be more too. Which is your favorite?
Plus since they don’t print in place, you can also put them on upside down if you prefer.

My members wanted to print a multi-color katana with a single extruder printer.
