Have a bad feeling everything related to climate science and earth observation. As well as anything related to health and medication, and renewable energy, will get axed. Republicans have so far deemed all that "woke" and "DEI" whatever that means.

It really puts it into scale when you get to hold it. This model had tiles and everything on it, so looks and feels amazing. The guy that made it is also making the OLM and Launch tower.

Light speed!
I had an E3 before this one as well. Fun machines to tinker with, but felt I never stopped printing mods, instead of printing other things 😄

They used to be "pretty cheap" maybe not anymore :s

Get yourself a UniversalRobotic cobot with a force sensor! You could program it to do all the sanding.

You've got this Calli 🫡

If parts aren't too heavy, maybe look into a cobot system. They are incredibly flexible.

We paid around €120k for it. Quality costs. It has an automatic tool changer, so I have three different gripper heads for it too.

Saying that. Gibbs is pretty eh. It's hard to recommend, but it's also the ugly baby I love the most. I'd go NX, Master, or Esprit.

Fusion can be alright. Every CAM software has its up and downsides. Most of the downside is that it's way too expensive. I'm still an advocate for mixing CAM with Conversational and raw ISO. Sometimes CAM cycles are slower. And milliseconds matter when you do 1000+ parts.

Made a line in fanuc, and just a quick macro to repeat it. But usually use Gibbs for more complicated stuff.

Biboo cute

If you've got a 4th axis, you could easily do this as well. Or even do it on a flat surface! If you space them out more, you'll get flat tops, instead of sharp ones. Could make a super neat coaster.
