It’s a folgertech FT-6. I was one of the first buyers and was the one who figured out and solved the “random fried control board” issue, and loaded thingiverse with upgrades to replace all of the shitty parts that come in the kit. I also put out the first available 32-bit software. Turned a garbage pile into an amazing machine.
I’m working as hard as I can to pay reparations. You can only make so much money 3D printing funkopops of traditionally white superheroes as minorities. 😭
YEAH WTF IS WRONG WITH HIM HAVING WHITE PRIVILEGE BY EDUCATING HIMSELF AND LEARNING TO DO SHIT! BLACK PEOPLE DON'T HAVE THE ABILITY TO EDUCATE THEMSELVES! REEEE
Have you ever tried Klipper? It works great with high step rates even on 8-bit controllers, on account of all the kinemetics running on a raspberry pi or whatever. Editing a config file and restarting a process rather than mutating EEPROM is also quite convenient.
I used klipper when I was running an 8bit controller. It was very smooth. I do like Marlin w/ octoprint on the 32-bit board better because it’s more user-friendly and packed with features.
$700 for the base machine. I have about $1200 total into it and about 2mo of design work into the 3D printed upgrades (all designs available for free on my thingiverse now).
I primarily 3D print to prototype cool stuff for machining and 3D print wax for investment casting in aluminum. If you’re asking if I have ever made any toys... yes... plenty of yo-yos and spinning tops. 🙄
The trade-off is the extra work and troubleshooting you need to do to get it working right. They're more like 90% of the way there diy kits with some cheap parts you'll probably want to upgrade.
I downloaded that a long time ago and designed some of my own. I use this printer for prototyping and for printing wax for aluminum investment casting. I have built CNC machines as well so the possibilities are endless.
Ready for your head to explode?.... I believe The Last Jedi to be the best movie of the entire series.
We all have different emotional attachments. I have as a 14yo boy(reeee) in a hospital bed for a month and a half after a horrific accident. A more fortunate childhood friend brought his N64 to the hospital for me to entertain myself with. I got hooked on the pod racing game.... played it nonstop for a month and it got me through an otherwise hard time. I got hooked on Star Wars from that point on and had a special attachment to 1-3. When the new ones came out, I was going through the toughest bit of depression of my life. I bought 20 tickets to the premier of Force Awakens and gave them to all of my friends. It was the first time in years that I was able to shut out the challenges of my life and submerge myself in fantasy. I had never experienced such emotion in the theaters.. heart racing, tears running down my face... whole nine yards. I continued the tradition through every new Star Wars film. Just before TLJ, I had finally taken responsibility and decided to turn my life around. It was a scary time. I changed everything. Star Wars was familiar and consistent. I went into the theater wanting them to write the story and with zero expectations and was blown away. When Snoke was killed, I gasped in a movie for the first time ever. When the rebellion ship went to warp speed through the fleet of First order ships and there was silence before the loud boom, my eyes were wide open and my jaw was hanging to my chest.... meme material.
But that’s me and my experience. There is no such thing as a wrong opinion as they’re completely subjective.
For me, it was the opposite. I had an attachment to the original trilogy (Which I saw as a teen just before the prequels came out) like that. The Prequels felt like honest fanfiction that I never needed- but was a ton of fun to watch.
The new movies felt like... well I'm sure you've heard people's impassioned speeches on it before. It's been years and I still struggle to not get angry at what they did to Luke.
What do you think of the Mandalorian? I'm watching it slowly with my Nephew (who is the perfect age for it) and loving every minute.
I have only watched the first season and enjoyed it. It felt more like the original trilogy with better special effects. My only complaint is that the pace was a little slow.
It’s a true old western samurai story, turned space opera, which is what the original movie was based on. (Lucas was largely inspired by Japanese samurai films when writing the first movie.)
The Mandalorian character allows for the original film’s genre to be fully flushed out, in the most literal sense. You can see Clint Eastwood in just about every action the character makes. And in the most recent episode, where they first introduce a Jedi character to the series, everything from the Japanese architecture to the villain to the music and the cinematography is pulled directly from old samurai films. You feel like you’re watching a samurai film. (Compared to the first episode of the second season, which felt like a spaghetti western.)
It’s a brilliant show, and what allows it to be brilliant is the fact that the show-runners completely ignore SJW popular culture and the expectations that come with it.
Yeah the prequel trilogy was ok. Where it really shined was all the spin offs, like clone wars, etc.
The first few episodes of the Mandalorian felt like fan fiction but i think they've turned it around quickly. At least the people involved seem to respect what came before them.
Thats cool you had such a great experience with the new trilogy and you took my teasing so well.
For me, the Force Awakens was just the beginning of a squandered opportunity to tell more of the Star Wars story. Instead, they threw out all the expanded universe and basically did a reboot of A New Hope. And then, not having continuity for the story arc with Rian Johnson and Abrams was another waste. And all the SJW shit piled on top of it.
Believe me, I do get where you’re coming from.... people spent their childhoods worshipping Luke Skywalker. They invested much of their lives building the world and collecting the stories of the extended universe. TLJ was probably like a stab in the gut to somebody like you. Luke becoming a bitter old man who had sworn off use of the force while having such high expectations would probably be like GEOTUS conceding on election night for me.... but I didn’t have that attachment to Luke. I didn’t know in my heart what his story was supposed to be and thus I wasn’t shattered when it was written differently. IMO, the only “eh” movies in the new star wars world were rise of skywalker and solo. Ghats not to say that each movie didn’t have bad filler scenes or useless characters.... just that I personally found TLJ and FA to be great movies as a whole but not the others.
One thing we can probably all agree on is that Rogue One was incredible. I believe that the reason that this is true is because the writers and director had freedom to make the story what they wanted without having to fit it into any existing material or characters besides for the events of the very end. Likewise, I think this is why solo wasn’t very good. There was very little solo back-story which they could create without it completely making no sense with what we know of him in the other movies.
My older brother who is almost as patriotic as me fucking loves Star Wars and ironically, Kylo Ren a lot too. I don't really mind, it was our childhoods playing Lego Star Wars on the Wii lmfao
Shortly after the September 11 attacks, Driver enlisted in the United States Marine Corps. He was assigned to Weapons Company, 1st Battalion, 1st Marines as an 81mm mortar man. He served for two years and eight months before fracturing his sternum while mountain biking, right before his unit got shipped to Iraq.
He didn't get to deploy fortunately or unfortunately, but he did enlist.
Driver adapted to Marine Corps culture. ... But Driver injured his sternum in a mountain biking accident before deploying. He attempted to overcome his debilitated state by training harder than before, but after two years of service with no time in the field, he was medically discharged.
I wrote a tool path for hitting the leveling points automatically with a prompt and the knobs system I designed is on ball bearings takes almost no effort to adjust.
I have 3 and let me tell you, it's a huge upgrade. I can watch A Trump rally on one screen, chat on .win on another, and do something else on the third!
I have 8 at work. Not an exaggeration. I just really really hate minimizing windows. If it's still up on one of my screens, i know it's something that still needs my attention. Although realistically it's extremely rare that u have more than 6 being used at a time. Displayfusion software helps a lot with managing this mess. Can I do the same thing just minimizing everything? Nope, if it's minimized, it's done. How else would I tell them apart?
Yes I'm one of those people that chokes on 64gb of RAM.
True, but it's worth the convenience of not having to switch stuff around all the time. I frequently switch between each monitor and it's so easy to just move the cursor to the screen
I used to run 3 but went down to 2 when I got a 4k class main monitor, just found I didn't really use the 3rd one enough to keep it around.
I've found 2 to be perfect. Main monitor gets probably 90% of the attention, but aux monitor is handy for throwing up reference material on when I have something maximized on main.
It's good for research and stuff like that. I'll commonly have (on my three screens) four+ reference materials up at once and my main screen with what I'm writing.
But what you say about multitasking is 100% correct. I have to be very careful about what I leave open (thedonald.win is the worst offender) in another screen or I'll lose a ton of time when I don't mean to.
I run a lot of different pieces of software simultaneously for my engineering and prototyping work. Dragging and dropping elements of a build is much easier with more real estate available, as is multitasking. My other setup for working from home (day job) has three monitors for the same reason and I always feel like I need more for that.
Same, I usually have Photoshop up in one, and my sign program in another. Or a browser looking for answers when I get stuck in Photoshop. Or YouTube to listen to Bannon.
Ender 3 pro... I will never stop recommending this to people. I have one which I use for small pieces and it’s fantastic. The only way to make it better is to go to linear rails. This will greatly help with layer lines if you have any.
That happened to a lot of people because they ran extrusion temps too high with too much retraction and clogged beyond the heat break in the extruder. After that, nozzle pressure is excessive and you get oozing and bad prints. Fix this and it’s a great printer. This is the most commonly recommended cheap printer on the planet for a really good reason. I have had mine completely original for two years and have replaced nothing but occasional nozzles.
The Prusa is the best pick for a reliable printer that takes almost no maintenance and is an absolute workhorse. Get the Mini for a 7" cubic space for $400 or the i3 mk3 for a 10" workspace.
But for as low as $200 you can go with a lot of the i3 clones that work well enough. They just take more maintenance. My first printer was the Wanhao Duplicator (it goes by a dozen names). It still works and is my prototyping machine when I need to check for fit before printing the final product on my Prusa.
You broke the rules! You can't do Saturday HATurday and Sunday Gunday in the same picture! Good job, you just broke the internet! I hope you know how to fix it!
BV is 720mm x 350mm x 400mm. I designed a better Y axis mount which adds rigidit and gives another 10mm of usable volume to Z. I use my machine for aluminum casting. Concrete would work well.
Ahhhhhhh man, I was sooo on the same page with you until I saw Kylo Ren on your desktop. Kylo fucking Ren??? Not shaming you man but damn...SW really jumped the shark with those three movies I mean, shit ... :/
(going to upvote you anyway!)
I have an Ender 3 Pro with a glass bed and love the heck out of it now that I printed out all the upgrades (like those cable chains) and made all the adjustments. I bought it mostly for printing out TPU quadcopter parts, but I still find random other things to print with it.
It’s a very heavily modified Folgertech FT-6. I have posted my setup in some FB groups but Reddit can suck it. I cut a sheet of custom glass for the desk and built moulds to vacuum bag a custom carbon fiber frame to make the desk badass but haven’t gotten around to assembling yet..... soon! This will eventually be a ridiculously cool shitposting station.
I see your battlestation on the corner on top of your amazing hat collection and raise one upvote because it's all I can do. I would give you 10 updoots if possible my fren!
Last year around Christmas, I designed and printed an LED photography soft box for my wife. I printed the shell and front frame and used stainless hardware to mount the frame over nylon. I built an aluminum heat sink to go inside with all of the LED and incorporated a cooling system into the shell. It looks cool as hell.
Damn that's a pretty machine! I'm a designer and printer myself. My lab uses Taz 5 and 6, makerbot Z-18s, a German reprap (garbage), UPBox+. Happy printing fren!
Is that the folgertech printer?
It’s a folgertech FT-6. I was one of the first buyers and was the one who figured out and solved the “random fried control board” issue, and loaded thingiverse with upgrades to replace all of the shitty parts that come in the kit. I also put out the first available 32-bit software. Turned a garbage pile into an amazing machine.
But you're a fucking white male REEEEEE
I’m working as hard as I can to pay reparations. You can only make so much money 3D printing funkopops of traditionally white superheroes as minorities. 😭
How much for the hat that looks like a gun?
I thought it was his mouse.... w/ USB receiver.
For minecraft.
Lmao
😅👌
Kylo was the only character almost okay in that whole trilogy, but that's not saying much lol
Grrr... nazi! /s
3D printing funko pops??? Never heard of that action.
YEAH WTF IS WRONG WITH HIM HAVING WHITE PRIVILEGE BY EDUCATING HIMSELF AND LEARNING TO DO SHIT! BLACK PEOPLE DON'T HAVE THE ABILITY TO EDUCATE THEMSELVES! REEEE
Poor kids are just as bright and talented as white kids!
This. IT ONLY COUNTS AS SMART IF IT COST YOU A LIFETIME OF DEBT, and came with indoctrination baked in, you Nazis!
Awesome! What did you use for the 32bit board? Bigtreetech?
Yup! I was an EARLY user of the SKR board when their universal Marlin build was a dumpster fire. I had to start from scratch.
Nice. I have the SKR board in my custom Hypercube.
Have you ever tried Klipper? It works great with high step rates even on 8-bit controllers, on account of all the kinemetics running on a raspberry pi or whatever. Editing a config file and restarting a process rather than mutating EEPROM is also quite convenient.
I used klipper when I was running an 8bit controller. It was very smooth. I do like Marlin w/ octoprint on the 32-bit board better because it’s more user-friendly and packed with features.
Be honest, you couldn’t have done it without your HUH WHYTE privilege, right???
Wow that's only $700?
$700 for the base machine. I have about $1200 total into it and about 2mo of design work into the 3D printed upgrades (all designs available for free on my thingiverse now).
So uhh. You 3d print anything.. uhh... cool
I primarily 3D print to prototype cool stuff for machining and 3D print wax for investment casting in aluminum. If you’re asking if I have ever made any toys... yes... plenty of yo-yos and spinning tops. 🙄
Nice. yo-yos are very cool
Especially when paired with pineapples.
Have you made a gun? I know you can make the molds on a 3d printer and stuff.
You just entirely missed the joke where he said he has.
The trade-off is the extra work and troubleshooting you need to do to get it working right. They're more like 90% of the way there diy kits with some cheap parts you'll probably want to upgrade.
Make sure you have the Liberator pistol files downloaded my man!
I downloaded that a long time ago and designed some of my own. I use this printer for prototyping and for printing wax for aluminum investment casting. I have built CNC machines as well so the possibilities are endless.
Ooooo. If you make any, you should post some aluminum cast rifles or pistols.
Or even make custom Trump things. That is super cool
I haven’t made any Trump things... I should... guns though, no way! I’d never do something like that. It’s outlandish... preposterous!
Whatever you do, don’t make a large stockpile of simple weaponry to equip your frens
😂
I haven’t seen that file. If I ever found it and it was high quality, I’d print moulds for casting it out of bronze.
How much does it take to do the casting out of bronze?
Just collect a shit ton of pennies
I built a 5x9 CNC wood router a while back. What do you want to know? These are much simpler than large 3D printers or CNCs for metal.
There are so many better ones now! Look up deterrence distributed on Lbry
New Star Wars trilogy desktop wallpaper? Gross.
Love everything else though!
Ready for your head to explode?.... I believe The Last Jedi to be the best movie of the entire series.

You went from coolest dude on this site to whatever the literal opposite of that is.
TLJ singlehandedly killed Star Wars. Full stop.
Believe me, I do get where you’re coming from.... people spent their childhoods worshipping Luke Skywalker.

I understand and agree with everything you’ve just said, you’re all good in my book man!
Was about to say. Although I respect patriots brazenly liking what they like. I’ve noticed some based people are into Star Wars.
It's a hero story they've heard as a child. Boys are hard wired to remember these things and still hold them in esteem as a man.
It's good for them of they don't allow some hollywood rats to taint and ruin this part of their childhood for them.
It's not even a good story. Unambiguous good vs. unambiguous evil. A couple of hiccups along the way. Good wins. Shocker.
My older brother who is almost as patriotic as me fucking loves Star Wars and ironically, Kylo Ren a lot too. I don't really mind, it was our childhoods playing Lego Star Wars on the Wii lmfao
Kylo Ren was the only good character to come out of the new trilogy to be fair
Until he took his helmet off maybe.
That actor was a marine IRL, apparently a decent person from what I remember.
Adam Driver was a marine?
Yup, from his wiki:
He didn't get to deploy fortunately or unfortunately, but he did enlist.
Edit:. Also from this vet website
Damn. Honestly did not know that. Thanks fren.
That picture gave me bed leveling PTSD flashbacks
I made bed leveling for this machine easy as cake! https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3599558
I wrote a tool path for hitting the leveling points automatically with a prompt and the knobs system I designed is on ball bearings takes almost no effort to adjust.

LOL!!!
True, but it's worth the convenience of not having to switch stuff around all the time. I frequently switch between each monitor and it's so easy to just move the cursor to the screen
I used to run 3 but went down to 2 when I got a 4k class main monitor, just found I didn't really use the 3rd one enough to keep it around.
I've found 2 to be perfect. Main monitor gets probably 90% of the attention, but aux monitor is handy for throwing up reference material on when I have something maximized on main.
Also good for when you're day trading stocks and keeping up with markets.
It's good for research and stuff like that. I'll commonly have (on my three screens) four+ reference materials up at once and my main screen with what I'm writing.

Easier to multitask, more productive.
It starts at 2, and then you end up having 3 laptops and an ultra-wide going at the same time.
Any 3d printers for us pedes that want to get started but have no idea and don't trust amazon or reddit suggestions?
Ender 3 pro... I will never stop recommending this to people. I have one which I use for small pieces and it’s fantastic. The only way to make it better is to go to linear rails. This will greatly help with layer lines if you have any.
My Ender3 stopped extruding properly in less than a month. Hard pass.
That happened to a lot of people because they ran extrusion temps too high with too much retraction and clogged beyond the heat break in the extruder. After that, nozzle pressure is excessive and you get oozing and bad prints. Fix this and it’s a great printer. This is the most commonly recommended cheap printer on the planet for a really good reason. I have had mine completely original for two years and have replaced nothing but occasional nozzles.
Isn't that just a knockoff of the prusa?
Both are based on the open source RepRap machines.
https://reprap.org/wiki/Prusa_Mendel_(iteration_1)
The Prusa Mendel is iteration 1 of the Prusa machines. The i3 is what we have today.
You see the i3 Mk3+ announcement? I kinda want to try out the SuperPINDA but they say it really isn't necessary if you already have a working machine.
I hadn't
I'm looking at it right now.
They got rid of some more zip ties. That was always something dumb, having zip ties on your axes.
I might just buy the SuperPinda anyways.
They also made a new printbed sheet.
The Prusa is the best pick for a reliable printer that takes almost no maintenance and is an absolute workhorse. Get the Mini for a 7" cubic space for $400 or the i3 mk3 for a 10" workspace.
But for as low as $200 you can go with a lot of the i3 clones that work well enough. They just take more maintenance. My first printer was the Wanhao Duplicator (it goes by a dozen names). It still works and is my prototyping machine when I need to check for fit before printing the final product on my Prusa.
Yeah. I've got a prusa
For a brief moment on time, I had a stickied post on TD and my life was complete.
What is the "[S]"
”Hey, where’s your production permit stamp?!” -Big Government
LOL!!!!!
You broke the rules! You can't do Saturday HATurday and Sunday Gunday in the same picture! Good job, you just broke the internet! I hope you know how to fix it!
Have you tried turning it off and then turning it back on again?
No. People would get mad at me.
And I have ethics.
solid quote
It sure needs doing.
Don't you think I would have tried that?
That is really really cool!
ugh, Star Warts. We're fighting for freedom, man!
Lord Sidious even LOOKS like George Soros. 2016 election was A New Hope... we’re currently at Emprire in the SW timeline.
ummmmmm......Live long and prosper, fellow pede :D
Wow 3d printed hats. Is that a lighter gun? Would love to try it.
I don't think those are 3d printed. You could 3d print directly onto the fabric, but I don't think the hats themselves are 3d printed.
Was being sarcastic. "uneducated whites". I'd shoot myself lighting my cigarette I'm so stupid 😅.
Kylo Ren is the only good part of the new movies, and that still comes with qualifications.
Nice battlestation
I thought it was all cool until I saw that kylo ren background.
Yeah. That makes me annoyed too.
What printer is that.
The only suggestion I can make is to change your wallpaper to any other Sith since Kylo is probably the worst. Preferably Darth Vader or Darth Bane!
What the hell... You could print a damn kayak on that thing.
I have printed some absolutely massive stuff... some of which was so big that it had to be broken down into four prints. It’s nice to have!
What's the build volume?
Have been thinking about getting in to it, because I enjoy 3D design and have some ideas for concrete casting.
BV is 720mm x 350mm x 400mm. I designed a better Y axis mount which adds rigidit and gives another 10mm of usable volume to Z. I use my machine for aluminum casting. Concrete would work well.
Is that width, depth, height? 720mm is like, 2 feet in freedom units?
I want to do some silicone/fiberglass mother molds.
Make some Walking Dead garden gnomes vs zombie garden gnomes. Maybe some humongous outdoor chess sets.
It’s almost 2ft. Everything is in MM when dealing with the gcode to run steppers as the metric system is easier to process.
Always thought Trump should EO the metric system, make it standard in America. And at the same time, make English our official language.
The screechers would struggle to attack it.
You could print a kayak on any 3d printer. Not that you'd want to.
thats a baller ass looking 3d printer. I just bought my 1st over the weekend. I cant wait to print tons of gun accessories.
Ahhhhhhh man, I was sooo on the same page with you until I saw Kylo Ren on your desktop. Kylo fucking Ren??? Not shaming you man but damn...SW really jumped the shark with those three movies I mean, shit ... :/ (going to upvote you anyway!)
haha you rang?
How much for a 3d printed red MAGA hat?
Where you get that chair at
Sick printer man.
I have an Ender 3 Pro with a glass bed and love the heck out of it now that I printed out all the upgrades (like those cable chains) and made all the adjustments. I bought it mostly for printing out TPU quadcopter parts, but I still find random other things to print with it.
Happy haturday!
Is that a 3D printed MAGA hat?!
Holy shit that's a big print bed! What kind of printer is that? If you were still on Reddit I would say your set up is worthy of r/battlestations.
It’s a very heavily modified Folgertech FT-6. I have posted my setup in some FB groups but Reddit can suck it. I cut a sheet of custom glass for the desk and built moulds to vacuum bag a custom carbon fiber frame to make the desk badass but haven’t gotten around to assembling yet..... soon! This will eventually be a ridiculously cool shitposting station.
Nice setup. To bad your print bed will snap in half when it makes contact with the unyielding power of those MAGA hats.
I got mine on right now. The original MAGA hat
Man I regret not buying spaceforce hats when the Trump store had them
Definitely my favorite!
I see your battlestation on the corner on top of your amazing hat collection and raise one upvote because it's all I can do. I would give you 10 updoots if possible my fren!
Nice 3D printer. I have a MK3, MK2, and a self-built Voron 2.1!
Yo dawg, can you print me out one of those shoulder things that goes up
I gotta ask, what's the coolest thing you've printed?
Last year around Christmas, I designed and printed an LED photography soft box for my wife. I printed the shell and front frame and used stainless hardware to mount the frame over nylon. I built an aluminum heat sink to go inside with all of the LED and incorporated a cooling system into the shell. It looks cool as hell.
Black Wires Matter
Don't mix the black, red and yellow wires!!!
Damn that's a pretty machine! I'm a designer and printer myself. My lab uses Taz 5 and 6, makerbot Z-18s, a German reprap (garbage), UPBox+. Happy printing fren!
