This was supposed to be a quick little project
🕑 Added 2019-08-27 15:39:05 +0000 UTCWell after more than a week my quick little project is becoming a seriously involved and very detailed project. My new M3 is showing itself to be a true workhorse and the final vent hood is exceptionally reliable and easy to use, so the lab is running 100% right now. Lots of parts so far and more being printed today.... yes, this little project is turning out to be a deep one. But I hope you'll think in the end it was worth the wait!

I just wonder what sort of craziness you could get up to with an infinite y-axis 3D printer.... ;) https://youtu.be/E_RvnqVHbnA For sure I can see you wanting to churn our part after part or making a metres long print.
I think we have a winner!

You can also do this with your Google account using Google Photos. This site can provide the embed code for images, or you can just grab the link from photos: https://ctrlq.org/google/photos/ The benefit is that you can use the Backup & Sync app to automatically push photos in your selected folder to the cloud, so no need to upload, just save the file in the folder, wait a few seconds for it to sync, then go to Photos and grab the link. You can either use the original sized image, which uses your Google account storage (which wouldn't be much for images already resized for the web), or just let it resize/compress the images and get unlimited storage for free.

I recognize those bulbs. Back in the day, nearly every illuminated had them, as well as panels with back lighting, the edge lit graticules on scopes, etc. In the early 70s as a junior engineer at the BBC, I would go to the stores about once a month and draw out another box of 50!

It's surprising how motivating having a robot churning away on something is. I've made more progress on my backlog of projects in the last 3 or 4 weeks than I have in the last 6 months. It's great to wake up in the morning, slice the model I worked on the previous night so I can get a print on before breakfast. Then while it's churning away during the day I can work on the next model or start assembling the parts (or just fix the problems with the design of the last batch!).

Hi Fran, Have you thought about using a image hosting site to let people see pictures instead of downloading them to the PC? I use https://imgbb.com and here is an example. <img src="https://i.ibb.co/jR2Vywm/R-10663739jpg.jpg">
