Desktop Factory: Our Product Grid Beam is a do it yourself wood and metal building and construction system. Natural Pools or Swimming Ponds Natural Pools or Natural Swimming Ponds (NSPs) Let nature clean the water... Chemical-free water garden and swimming pool. The plant portion, or regeneration zone, is separated from the swimming area by the wall seen a few inches below the water’s surface. www.naturalswimmingpools.com The pools have skimmers and pumps that circulate the water through the regeneration zone and back into the swimming area. The aquatic plants filter out contaminants and use nutrients from the water as food which helps prevent algae. There are many options as to design. A gradual slope contains the plants, gravel and loamy sand, a wall keeps them separate from the swimming area. Vacuum but twice a year and tend to the plants as needed. The regeneration zone can be along the perimeter of a natural pool or a pond unto itself but connected to the swimming area. www.gartenart.co.uk Plants steel the nutrients away from algae. www.gartenart.co.uk Half regeneration area, half swimming pool. www.living-pool.eu Builders:
The Most Incredible 3-D Printed Things We’ve Ever Seen ⚙ Co The levees have broken for 3-D printing, and the resulting deluge of printing-concepts-on-the-cheap is flowing faster than we can gather. The best of these rise to the surface for their innovating predictions of a faster/safer/healthier future. A Robotic Hand That Doesn’t Cost An Arm And A Leg Teen engineer Easton LaChappelle created his first robotic hand out of Legos, fishing wire, and surgical tubing--a feat that earned him 3rd place at the Colorado Science Fair. Speaking at TEDxMileHigh last month, LaChappelle presented the arm, which features as much motion and almost as much strength as a human arm and costs just $400.

Piece de telephone: ecran lcd samsung ,Htc, Sony, Motorola, vitre tactile - Piece-mobile MAKE HOMEMADE SCIENCE TOYS AND PROJECTS Alternative Print Surface | Solidoodle Tips I’ve always had trouble with ripping my Kapton tape. Prints are can be removed easily, without damaging the tape if the print bed cools down, but it takes so long to heat up, I hate to let it cool too much. Also, if I want to cancel a print and restart it right away with tweaked settings, I’m too impatient to cool it down first. The solution is to forget the Kapton altogether. The great thing about using glass, is that when the print is done I can take the glass off and let it cool on the table without needing to turn off the heat. The problem with covering the aluminum with glass is that you can’t get to the leveling screws. Like this: Like Loading...

How to Make a Mini Fog Maker Video Kipkay Videos Male Speaker: I get lots of request to mixed up. So here is one of them to make this fun and easy Mini Fog Maker you'll need a coffee can remove the label, it will look a lot cooler. Then I dug through my box of computer fans and found a nice 2.5 inch square one. Lay it on the plastic top that came off the coffee can and then we going to make a mark around it and cut that squire out just inside the mark you made. Apply some hot glue or other epoxy around the edge of the hole and then attach the fan. I found a section of pull hoses, which will be great for this project because it has a nice nozzle at one end and that's going to be matter at the very top of our can. More kipkaySmokin' videos!
Thumbscrew to level bed from beneath (Page 1) — STL Sharing & Print Showoff — SoliForum - 3D Printing Community Trying to see a gap of 0.010 under a straight edge is not easy. When I put the straight edge from near left to far left, I can put a piece of paper under the straight edge and move it almost completely from front to back, so there are "lips" on the front and back edge. That is the only thing that I can detect using your suggestion. In particular, I cannot detect the 0.010 problems across the back. I bumped my bed temperature up from 85 to 95, and that has allowed me to get larger pieces to stick, although I believe that I am relying on the adhesion on the front, along with the structural integrity of the piece, to keep everything in place. I'm not sure what the spec is here.

3D Printing Online Tools STL Volume Weight Calculator In two lines: Vital stats for 3D printing objects. Quickly estimate the cost of printing your 3D object! What is STL ? .STL is a file format that is popularly used for representing 3D object information for 3D printing applications. So what ? It is useful to know the volume and hence the weight of the material that may go into making an object on a 3D printer before one prints it. What math ? This software uses a tetrahedron volume counting algorithm to determine the volume contributed by each of the tiny triangles that constitute the 3D model represented in a STL file. class STLStats is cool because… The volume counting math is wrapped inside an easy to use PHP class that exposes getter functions (i.e. getVolume, getWeight, etc) to calculate common statistics of a 3D object. The PHP code has been commented extensively. Happy coding Updates:v1.2 Minor re-factoring.
