3D Printing 🤖 / 3D Scanning 📸 / Travel ✈️
I used CT scan data to 3D print my skull and you can, too! 💀

It’s a very strange feeling to be holding a 1:1 life-size replica of your own skull, but it’s a cool point in history that we’re able to do this! 🧠

Hanging out at the airport is usually when I clean up my 3D scans, but today I'm working on a slightly different kind of 3D scan 👀

'Hey, want to see what I'll look like in 100 years?' - my wife didn't think it was as clever as I did 🤣

Want to try a ~45 minute test print for your 3D printer?

The 'Double Helix Challenge' was one of my favorite prints from the early Thingiverse era, and it's a great cooling test for your 3D printer.

Printed some new keys for my Oskitone Poly555 3D printed synth!

I’m been having a blast with the @positron3d.com upside-down 3D printer!

Seeing the bottom layer of a Benchy from above (below? It's all relative, I guess!) is a weird experience!

Upside-down 3D printer = upside-down 3D print

My first print with the @positron3d.com!

My Latin is a bit rusty; anyone know what this means? 🔍

“Also, what’s in this box and why is it so heavy?”

I was ~so~ curious, and I was surprised to find a candle warmer! It weighs like 20 lbs, and it feels like it was carved out of marble! 🤣

Happy holidays!

Thanks for the holiday surprise, @xtool-official.bsky.social!

The personalized engraved luggage tag arrived just in time for holiday travel!

Switched over to @polymaker.bsky.social Marble PLA (left) and suddenly detail is popping out in 4K

My first 3D printed backpack!

This is the adidas Adaptive Packing System / 4D Backpack, with ventilated 3D printed padding on the back and straps.

Why does the lattice face out on the straps? Beats me, but it gets points for style! 🤣

This was a big year for my YouTube channel!

2.5 million views is wild, but the 1,000 comments is really cool! Thanks for joining the conversation!

I 3D printed more versions of the Athena 3D scan I made last month!

Here are some of my favorites; the translucent material over marble is my favorite look!

I saw a Charlotte-specific 3D printed Christmas ornament at a craft fair!

Couldn’t resist buying one for the tree! 🤣🤣🤣

There was a cool reusable LDO bag and a Christmas card inside!

I’m so excited for this one: my first @positron3d.com! 🙃

Thanks for sending this over, @ldojason.bsky.social! Can’t wait to start 3D printing upside down!

I spent almost as much time on the favicon (little browser icon) as I did on the actual site 🤣🤣

🐸🔍 FROG DETECTOR IS NOW LIVE! 🐸🔍

My first experiment with machine learning! Detect if there is a frog (or a toad) in a picture, using the power of Image Classification!

Built using p5js, ml5js, and inspired by the incredible @shiffman.net / @thecodingtrain.com workshop!
December 10, 2024 at 12:37 AM
Made a lot of progress yesterday! 🎉

Now we can (somewhat) accurately identify between a frog and a toad!

My adventures in Machine Learning are off to a rough start 🤣

My Black Friday splurge arrived! These are the "Scratch and Dent" @e3donline.bsky.social Revo nozzles!

Can you guess the nozzle diameter from the color code?

Resin 3D printed earbuds!

Check out that macro shot of the voxels on the resin printed enclosure! 🔍

Thanks to Chitubox for sending these over!

Super random:

Bought some wires for Raspberry Pi stuff and they were @elegoo.bsky.social branded!

Elegoo is just associated with 3D printing in my mind, but I always forget they do a ton in the hobbyist electronics space!
