I ended up moving from kbin.social to fedia.io which runs mbin and has a team, not just one person. (kbin.social kept breaking all the time for me.)

Stop by the studio!

The frame is 6" x 6" and the print is just a bit smaller than that.

Here's a post (and some photos) about the paper I make: https://rasterweb.net/raster/2023/12/19/handmade-paper/

Thanks! Yeah, I really had fun making paper last month so now it's time to print on all of it. (And then I'll make some more!)

The design for this one was a digital drawing (though sometimes it's just analog/paper) and I then 3D printed a plate and did a relief print using a Provisional Press. (I'm also really into rainbow rolls lately!) I make my own paper and this is from a recent batch. (I recycle our shredded paper at home.) The frame is 3D printed and I designed that as well.

Fish Print (media.kbin.social)
 

Colorful print of a fish with a series of ripples (or something) radiating from it.

Thanks! I've though about doing more... I started working on a trash can icon yesterday and I'll see where it takes me.

 

I took the old Sad Mac icon and made a colorful relief print of it.

Looks good! I'd guess 80% of my printing is enclosures. ;)

If you want it to get worse just change it from a hobby to a business!

OpenSCAD is great for programmers because you write code to generate 3D objects. If you love Python there are ways to write Python that then generates OpenSCAD code, so that may be worth looking into.

My iOS app won't work anymore but I'm trying to be patient and understand that it's an open source project led by one person so there may be delays or issues that prevent progress or even things running smoothly. Hopefully it will return and improve with time.

That's really strange. I run 6 Ender-3 S1 printers at work and tend to only level them if there is an issue or we change build plates... maybe once a month at most, and we print a lot. I did go through the process of leveling with the knobs and sliding a piece of paper under the nozzle to get it just right, but when they print well, all is good.

 

I created what I am calling a “Solder Board” which is like a breadboard but with no internal connectors. The solder board is used for soldering of course. Specifically, for soldering pins onto PCBs, and in this case, onto microcontrollers.
