Last I saw they had some buses and were doing some excavating, that was like a month or two ago now.
Had heard they bought a property almost next to the donnybrook field and where setting up there, the lease on the Morayfield venue was getting pricey and they weren’t being allowed to do some stuff or something like that so they just went and bought a property.
well it’s not open yet and it’s in the sunshine coast. It’s gonna be located near Cooroy. It’s still in development.
Sorry, off topic i know, but do you use proprietary Bamboo software to design or 3rd party products.
Cheers,
I use Fusion360 to make the models but do have to use the Bambu slicer to actually print.
There’s nothing stopping from using other slicing software the other printers though.
You could use software like Blender or tinkerCAD to make the models but it’s all personal preference really.
Awesome! Thinking of investing in a printer and have been following your work. Might have a few more questions in the future. Is there a better thread for those? I’ll create one when ready if not.
Don’t know if there was one to talk specifically about the printers but the was one we were posting about printed parts.
Just a thought, as I said earlier I want to upgrade printers so would be needing to get rid of this current one, if you’re not too far away and interested I’d be happy to sell this one, knowing it’s going to a good home.
Again just a thought, I’d be posting it for sale in the near future anyway.
Or if anyone else was wanting to get into 3D printers.
Sent you a message… cos I don’t have too many hobbies already 
Shall give it some thought … prob a bit away savings wise but will reach out for a chat when ready!
Looks great 
I like the redesign of the bottom plate
Got a better fit with v3.2
.
Looking good, but I see what you mean.
Are you having another crack or should we field test? 
As it is, it holds tight and isn’t impeded being released, I did widen the belt loop a bit and now it’s a bit looser so looks prone to sliding on its own, But otherwise I think it’d be good to go.
That’d just be because of the tapered and curved shape of the top and bottom of the 'nade, makes the clamping arms flex apart by putting pressure on them towards the small end of the taper at each end, yeah? The tighter the clamping force, the greater the deflection towards the smaller end? 
Not much you can do about that, hard to fight physics… unless you print it with that taper compensated for in the cross section of the arms.
Roger that
Usual deal then, 11pm in the alley behind the 7-11 with unmarked bills in a brown paper bag?
Well the clamps are shaped to match the angle of the shoulders of the nade so it holds more securely.
The distance between the top and bottom shoulders of the nade was like 45.5mm (from memory) and I’ve modeled it so the matching gap was 46.5mm so theoretically it should be loose…but it’s not… Or at least not in the way I thought it should be.
My thinking it should be right. Bit of pressure there to hold it secure enough, then rip it and deploy when needed by the looks
Interesting reading, good job for sure
If you manage to get this thing to fall out you’ve either landed on it and broken it or you’ve been hit by truck-kun 
Yeah, agreed @Maiphut … looking at that pic of the angled clamps you’d think they’d stay parallel under load.
It’s a great bit of CAD design you’ve done there @DChapo… while it’s an interesting talking point as to why the spread of the clamps changes, in reality, it doesn’t detract from an A-Class bit of kit you’ve punched out.
Bloody good stuff.
