State Holiday; home with the kids.

Finished a 15hr print: AA/AAA battery holder.

Built a frame for a mold, about finish now... will be used in leather work (not by me).

Gotta research some Cad option as I don’t want to limit myself to TinkerCad. But I’ve had okay results so far, even for the third project and maybe two hours of work...

Doesn’t seem to bad for a ‘no marketable skills,’ ‘obtuse,’ ‘did you google that’ person-

Here's a laundry list of software from a 3DP website.

The names I know off hand here are Blender and LibreCAD

Thanks, I know of both, and will look at the list - Never used Blender but have tinkered with LibreCad. And likely will go that way.

TinkerCAD is really good for making 3d prints with, even for more complex models. If you do need to move up to something like PRO-E or Solidworks, it's gonna get really expensive. I've never gotten the hang of using Blender properly, many have had success with it, so definently check that out as well.

Oh no,.. LOL.. I'll never get to the level where I need to look at AutoCad or Solidworks. This is a hobby - not a job.

Heh-

I will look into that. I was able to unlock, decrypt drive
And it just booted on the original hardware.

Running sfc again,...

In this case, the system is a boot, scan and repair loop.
Sfc /scannow failed with: could not perform the requested action...

Been to the Google, M.2 NVME and DART don’t seem to come back with anything.

Can you use DART on an M.2 drive?

Headache, coffee, finishing a server deployment.

Does a headache, monster and Windows 7 to Windows 10 equal?

I’d go choco. Ninite requires rebuilding the installer (last time I used it) ever time you add/update/remove an application .

Choco is much easier, @JaredBusch uses it if I recall.

@registry2021
You can via GPO.

@hobbit666

Time and speed depend on a number of variables.

Nozzle size, temperature of the filament, flow rate, speed of the hot end travel, quality setting (fine to course) and the biggest maybe

Size of the project.

I’ve only had it three weeks, about to actually use it maybe 10 days.

Reading and learning in the down time, different softwares, slicer settings and mechanics.

@scottalanmiller

Pre made isn’t custom fit. Nor will it include the right mounting points to the frame.
Current stage:

Final product.

The back of the LCD panel doesn’t come with a cover. This does two things, cover and case for OctoPi.
