Be Excellent To Each Other

Oh right, I get you. I didn’t realise you could get printers that used more than one colour of filament at a time. Nice

I am having no joy whatsoever getting my printer to print anything. I'm wondering if the filament is just too old, as I bought it second hand. Maybe it degrades over time or something, but it's just not getting pushed out of the extruder/nozzle reliably.
Had to replace the bowden tube because the one that was on it when I got it had filament inside it and it wasn't possible to extrude it out or push it out manually without it breaking, so it got clogged up completely.

Fun times.

Filament takes in moisture, especially PETG. You can buy specific dryers, or even just leave it on a warm radiator for a bit

Here's my next print. A little box that turns bog roll into a tissue dispenser.

An under desk modular cable management system.

Not as neat as I want, but the desk motors are in the way.

A mixture of multi boards and ‘underware’

There is a ton of options out there

I like how that holds the power bricks and blocks and things - smart.

I am quite impressed...

How long did it take to print all that?

Hours and Hours.. I did a lot of the mulitboard. Fitted the large one and printed the smaller ones to fit round.

Printed the starter underwear pack. Then printed bits as i needed them

Ha... underware

https://handsonkatie.com/underware/

I'll be honest, in the context of anything related to underwear, 'handsonkatie.com' is a link I'm going to check over my shoulder before clicking in the office.

It is purposefully done. Saying that I did not open on my works machine.

My new special boy

O M G

He's lifesized!

That's ace!

That is cool

Fans of Crazy Taxi (and dusty cars) will recognise this.

Frankly…I absolutely fucking love it and think it’s genius.

That is fab.... i might have to print one

Here's the link for it.

Nice! It was only the other day when I remembered the Sonic rearview mirror ornament in Daytona… bet there’s one of those out there too.

Not to be “that guy” but did Daytona even have a cockpit view? Maybe you’re thinking of Rad Mobile.

Now, to be “that guy”, Rad Mobile was the first ever appearance of Sonic even pre-dating his own game.

You are so being that guy, guy. You’re right though… what game was I thinking of then? Never heard of that other one.

Must be Rad Racer, honestly can’t remember playing that though.

It did have four views though! This is driving me mad

Daytona had four views if I remember rightly. Weren't there four coloured buttons to the left of the steering wheel corresponding to each view?

Sure did have a cockpit view. No Sonic though

It’s more of a window-screen view than inside the cockpit.

You can see the dials!

You know what, you could have put a gun to my head and I would have sworn that you couldn't see any dials from that view. Amazing.

It’s because he’s linked to the Saturn version and not the arcade, init.

Yeah I always remembered it as being a bonnet cam (aka the best view for racing games).

I shall load up an emulator as soon as I get home and put this one to bed.

It was bonnet, cockpit, close chase, far chase IIRC.

It's running in an emulator so it's in a window but, that's the four views on Daytona USA.

Terrible driving! 40/40?!

Nailed it.

There's defo dials in that last image. VINDICATION

Is that Mame, @TheVision ?

I’d say the camera is probably ‘above’ the window-screen so it can’t even be a cockpit view.

It is not, no. It's a Sega Model 2 emulator which I've had for many a year. It plays Daytona, Sega Rally, Virtua Fighter 2 and pretty much all the M2 library.. hence the name.

I mainly use it with my Sidewinder steering wheel to play Sega Rally and it's great.

It's not massive so if you want it and all the Roms, let me know and I'll send them over.

Here we go folks!

Absolutely! Cheers bud

The green arrow is cool but I find dangly things hanging from car mirrors make me feel a bit motion sick, but I do have sensitive little eyes and suffer from some visual oddities.



I'm sure I remember the dangling sonic ornament from some game, but I can't remember which game nor which platform. Can we both have imagined it?

To stop you getting motion sickness instead of being attached to the car you need one attached to your head, on a little band. Like a Sim. Just make it diamond shape

I could be tempted by one of those Bambu Lab printers, as I'm having absolutely no joy whatsoever getting my second-hand Ender 5 to print anything.

I love mine, just printed a few bits for my new coffee machine
