This channel shows some of my weekend projects. I mostly do Woodworking, CNC and 3D Printing as well as some electronics projects. This channel is not meant to tell somebody how to do stuff since I'm not an expert by any stretch of the imagination. But maybe one or an other of the videos can be an inspiration for your own projects.
vgroove/notching for thick lenses is such a wild west. some people use planar vgroove, but most frames only support curved. some follow front curve, some just go at weird angle across lens thickness. I honestly think my latest pair was grooved manually because it is wild. When designing frames, i am hesitant to use any non-planar vgrooves because some opticians have difficulty with those. the problem is of course they end up looking like a flat slab
Hi, First time user, getting following error message and not sure how to correct. Any suggestions appreciated. C:\Program Files\Inkscape\share\inkscape\extensions\lasertools.py:1557: DeprecationWarning: inkex.deprecated.main.transform_mul -> Use @ operator instead transf = Transform(transf) * Transform(node.get("transform", None)) Installed files from both versions and getting same error.
do you know what the chemical composition is of the solution after plating? just wondering about toxicity levels - I'm trying to compare whether id be best copper plating or zinc plating for durability and wear on some machine parts.. and obviously to prevent rust occurring again great vid by the way... subbed!
Hello! The extension is very good. But I have a problem: when it finishes laser engraving the vector, the laser is still on and burning the trajectory until it reaches the origin (x=0 / y=0). I have tried various laser off commands, and even modifying the g-code by hand, but the problem persists. Any possible solution?
Hello Christoph. Congratulations for this laser tool. Could you tell what python version did you use ? This is beacause when I use it it throws a deprication warning. Best regards.
Very helpful. In particular the video actually has a diagram showing the parts connected, and an explanation of what they are for. To be honest, explaining the function of a breakout board would have been even better, but still this is much better than the usual how-tos. As a former software architect, I'm struck at how uncommon it is to get an explanation of the overall architecture of a system (software or hardware). I'm probably going to build your two boards, as you seem to be out of stock.
I am concerned about the memory modules of the gpu. It would be perpefct if water block was large enough to cover the modules too. It might lower the performance of the system.
CAN U 3D PRINT TONY STARK/SPIDERMAN FAR FROM HOME EDITH GLASSES. Mainly same design as the cool shades they sell and use in the movie. Only difference its made from plastic or strong plastic filament. The tony stark shades they sell on amazon looks really cool on my face. Only problem. I cant always wear it unlike tested glasses. I really want that design look on my face with tested glasses. So I can wear it any time and place. The problem is that because its made from a metal frame. Eye specialist say they cant reuse metal frames. Its a one and done. Because its more difficult to make lenses for them. So can u 3D PRINT A VERSION THAT IS MADE FROM PLASTIC FILAMENT OR SUPER STRONG FILAMENT FOR DAMAGE BUT STILL BE EASY TO SWAP LENSES. When u have to take over a new one. Really like this design and planned to use it forever if I can get it in a glasses form that looks the same. Love it has a shades but prefer it to be normal glasses.
You will never get good adhesion of copper layer to steel in acidic bath. This is beacuse iron reduces Cu ions very easily. In industry cyanide baths provide best results - but toxicity excludes them from any amateur use. You can use ethylenediamine + copper sulfate solution or pyrophosphate bath - both are quite ok, but the ingredients may be hard to find. Also these baths are not as stable as acidic. In the workshop conditions the best option is to put a thin layer of nickel first and then you can use copper sulfate + sulfuric acid solutions which is quite good in results. In case of lack of nickel anode - you can use graphite rods as well.
Hello Christ, I am a software engineering student at a college in the US. I have project due this semester that needs a PCB kit. Specifically, the PI LCNC board. What is the best way to contact you to order a kit?
After watching dozens of videos on YT about copper plating and then trying many methods myself, I came to the conclusion that copper plating is a decoration at most. If you want something durable then go with nickel
great project kudos. I wonder if it is possible and how to turn the function on the limit switches? if the switch is in position 0 in halshow it shows 1 and if I press it it shows 0
Hi Chris. Ist zwar schon einige Zeit her, dass du das Video online gestellt hast, hoffentlich siehst du meinen Kommentar trotzdem noch. Leider finde ich in den Extensions (nachdem ich alle 3 Dateien in das Extensions-Verzeichnis kopiert habe) deine Erweiterung nicht. Ich bin an einem Win7 32bit Notebook und habe beide Inkscape Versionen versucht, leider ohne Erfolg...Hast du da einen Rat für mich?? SG
Thanks for the tutorial, I was engraving just fine with this until I tried modifying the gcode preferences. I reverted all the settings back, but when I click apply in the lasertools interface, it splits the vector points from the object, and won't center them on top of eachother, so the gcode is screwed up. Has anyone had this issue? Were you able to fix it?
Follow up just incase: The issue I'm having isn't with the LASERTOOLS, its actually when I resize the document, when I resize it so it fits the design, my bitmap gets offset by a random amount... still working to understand if its something with the pictures I'm trying to etch, or a bug in the software.
I suspect you mistakenly used baking powder instead of baking soda, hence the cloudiness. They are quite different from one another. Baking soda is pure whereas baking powder contains other chemicals also.
