Anyone into 3D printing?

Not sure why so many people on FB groups seem to think that resin printing can’t make useable parts.

3 parts I printed this weekend for my mill;

Bracket to hold a mister nozzle

Adapter to go from the sheetmetal coolant trough to 2” hose. The flood coolant drains out the back of the machine into this trough and the instructions have you hackjobbing the 2” hose onto the end of the trough but I figured I could do that cleaner.

Instructions:

My way:


And then the coolant drains into a 5 gallon bucket where it’s pumped back up to the nozzle. I printed a sieve with about 100,000 .75mm holes in it to filter out any chips before they make it into the bucket. I’ll empty this as needed as chips accumulate. The big holes at the top will allow it to overflow into the bucket if the small holes get clogged and can’t drain.

The coolness never stops.

My son is going on a young men's backpacking trip in the Uintas next month. Since I pretty much pawn my kid off to these church people to expose him to some religion, I figured I'd contribute. I printed 20 of these whistles to give to all the boys going. They are loud as a MFer. No chance they are losing a kid who didn't lose their whistle.

I guess it's better than what I printed for Girls camp

I was really fascinated by Azetec death whistles, and decided to reverse engineer one, by using cross section images on Google, and explanatory videos on YouTube. The angle and strength that you blow with into the whistle affects the sound (subtly). This is one of the better sounding ones after...

THOSE THINGS ARE TERRIBLE! The neighbor kid printed one and I was victimized by it for a few hours before his dad found out about it and disappeared it
