Printed a laser mount for my crossfire table. I still need to come up with a power source and wire things up. But I did a test run, looks like it will work.

Quite a bit involved but a very cool device.
That is totally crazy. I was looking for some examples of what a finished product looked like. Perhaps missed a link.

Tin: That was interesting. What I got out of it is “Don’t use grid infill. Most default profiles use grid infill.” I will have to look for that.
That looks like a lot of work. I know it is environmentally sensitive but on a home model, I don’t think I would be happy with the results. They did not use it to make pieces that needed great adhesion and strength. As someone pointed out earlier, getting the strength desired from a plastic part is challenging enough without adding in the likely impurities of a home processing unit.
Thanks for showing this Knick.
That is really cool Craig.

Something the TSA won’t let you take as a carry-on.
