That’s clever. I’ve wantef an excuse to do gridfinity stuff for a whil. Should have thought of the scanner thing lol.

I am gonna check if there are existing modules already like another commenter suggested, but otherwise will use that paper truck

I didn’t even think about the fact that there are probably some for gridfinity already. Will look into that

Yeah it was pretty silly, I for some reason blanked on the fact that boot is an important flag. Thankfully booting the live media worked

Oh yeah, didn’t think about trying with a live media. Will do that

This has severance vibes

Oh wow, this is so cool!

I will take a look at this later and see if I can take inspiration from the project as a whole

Normally I would just go out and grab one as I have done it a bit before, and I know how useful they are, I am just a bit strapped for cash at the moment. (College student who didn’t manage to grab a job for summer :/)

Maybe I will make a temp solution and then make something more proper later on.

I am not certain, I have used FreeCAD tutorials for Onsdel to great success.

I think what I do is just listen to the tool name they reference, and then just look where I assume it would be to find it, rather than trying to find tools in the same places as them

Personally I love openSCAD, but it is probably really unintuitive to someone without programming experience and even then has it’s own limitations.

FreeCAD is in a weird position ATM, it is actually really good! …just not in the stable release… The Dev version is significantly more palatable, and they even went on a feature freeze to really push through with their major 1.0 release.

For now though Onsdel (Sort of a fork of FreeCAD packaged with Dev release and UI improvements) has worked really well for me thus far!

Yeah that honestly makes much more sense lol

This is a shit take

Holy cow, thanks for the link! I will definitely try it out once I am finished with my next couple of projects.

I already don’t use the display because OctoPI though the OctoApp is way more convenient, so no loss there lol

I didn’t realize klilper was that powerful. That is actually crazy

That is quick! The SE only advertises a max of 250 mm/s with 4,000 mm/s^2 accel, so that is pretty crazy.

I have most definitely heard of it.

Do I know what it is, how it works, what it does? No.

I know you can run it through a raspberry pi, which is useful because I am already using one for octoprint. If it isn’t crazy difficult to setup than I would definitely be willing to try it out!
