Makers! It's time to share... what have you been hacking on or making?

Reply to this email with a brief run-down of whatever projects have
been keeping you busy, either at the space or elsewhere. And, include
a photo if you can!


reMMinderbot thanks you!

I been generating new sand table patterns for the makerfaire:

I also started working on a Perl program to post-process pattern files to draw the pattern slowly while zipping around the edges of the table at 1000 mm/sec. That preserves fine detail in the pattern but speeds up drawing time compared to running the whole pattern at the low speed. I manually edited a file to test the concept- it shaved >10 minutes out of a 29 minute low speed pattern, so I think it will be worth the effort of re/learning Perl. Video of the test here- the edge speed changes about midway through the video in case you don't want to watch the whole thing.

And I made a stand for a surround speaker:

Its printed in PETG, 1.2 mm line width, 0.5 mm layers, two walls, used about 283g of filament, and took about 2.5 hours to print on UMMD at 50 mm/sec.

I've been messing around with Pocket Operators latey and I used an
Arduino to sync up a DMX light to one.

Mark,

Your Sand drawings seem to have more depth to them. Did you change the medium or the ball? 

I love the speaker stand. Such a pretty blue.
