Curved Duct For Heater/AC Unit
I have three "through wall" heater/AC units in my apartment... I've always thought that they'd be more efficient if the top-facing output duct was redirected towards the middle of the controlled space instead of venting straight up. So I thought I'd try to design and print a deflector that fit on to...

Re: Changing Filament Mid Print?
So... I went the conventional route and modified the G-code. When code snippet was executed, the bed dropped and the printer seemed to pause... for a moment, and then resumed printing. I'm pretty sure I didn't hit the "Resume" button, and my G-code definitely had the "M25" pause command. I was not p...

Re: Changing Filament Mid Print?
That's if I go into the G-code to make the pause "automatic"... for which I can see the benefit: obviously the print pauses at the right point without intervention. OTOH, if I just manually pause the print without having changed any G-code, I'm guessing in that case I'd have to send the extruder res...

Re: Changing Filament Mid Print?
Today I tried to change filament in mid print, specifically to print raised lettering in a different color than the rest of the print. Everything seemed to proceed as expected: 1) When I reached the layer where I wanted to change filaments, I hit "pause" in S3D. 2) Using the jog controls, I lifted t...

3D Printed Molding To Replace Wood Molding
My refrigerator is starting its 23rd year... and it's still fully operational, although it's needed a bit of maintenance over the years. A failed defroster timer led to a small leakage of water... which caused some water damage to the wood moldings surrounding the refrigerator. By a lucky accident, ...

Re: USB Controlled Quad Outlet Box
