Noticing the traffic on our 3D Printing in the Shopthread, I will make a rash assumption that members not interested in 3D printing have not bothered to visit it, however, an "in their face" project posting may pique their interest... much like the way lasers have crept into workshops.
Unlike that feral Lumberjocks, I’m still not banned here and with Craftisian's semi open various craft charter, I will stroll down that liberty path and go against the grain, and with all the shit show flowing around lately, I will focus my one eyed
(albeit brown) intentions and channel you timber advocates to take on board another diversified category.... with me being a
pie-on-ear and start posting some 3D printed project(s)... Sorry about the "Woodworking category".
With tail between the legs, I will cautiously approach the topic by avoiding prints of Yoda, or brag about my dragging dragon on the ground and restrict it to workshop paraphernalia.
A very basic installment and minimal of my normal crapola, I will launch this in the hope that members with much better imagination and expertise will post their creations here rather than at dedicated 3D print forums/threads.
This is just a 45° and 90° straddle squares I printed about 8 years ago… hardly used the 45° much, but I have used the 90° to extend around the corner countless times... especially where my 'pecker fails,
Short and (not necessarily) sweet post for me… Shit, just wait till I fire up my Creality for real and you’ll be inundated with narratives that make “War and Peace” seem like a one sheet mail box pamphlet.
This is the STL I created…
anyone interested I will try to make it available the right side up.
OOPS... just realised the pie is getting a tad mouldy as I've already posted a 3D project.
If your first cut is too short... Take the second cut from the longer end... LBD
These straddle squares come in handy and carry a line around a corner accurately. I use my store bought one to show me my stock isn't all that square, when taking the line around the stock, the ends never meet.
I am very keen on using 3D printing as an aid in woodworking, so as far as I am concerned, Bring on the Thunder. As a true believer in Tor and Odin please bring it on.
Thanks guys... they're a handy tool whether bought or hacked out of timber/metal... this is just to highlight how easy and quick they are on a 3D printer... and accurate. The angles(s) are easy to create... but usually confined to owners of a 3D printer (or contacts). For workshop jigs/supplements they are invaluable... just think dust extractionm connections... why are different bads, different 2 1/2" diameters... they never "cross pollinate"..
If your first cut is too short... Take the second cut from the longer end... LBD
