Wow. I haven't been to this site in awhile, it's nice to see something finally pop up in Cleveland. I'm in Strongsville. I have a few 3d printers laying around and a bunch of other equipment. One of them is a Prusa that I had quite a bit of success with... I would be happy to share my experience.by sharkcus - Cleveland Ohio - RepRap Usergroup
Need an object converted to a CAD file or image? We can do it. Cheap. I'll output it in whatever format you want. 2d (bmp/jpg/dxf/etc...) or 3d (stl/etc...) Item can be up to (approximately) 6" x 8" x 2.38" Max scanning resolution is 0.025mm. Mail or drop it off in person. (Cleveland, OH) Price depends on resolution+size. $3 for low resolution/small objects $5 for high resolution/small-mediumby sharkcus - Job Shop: I make stuff!
Also want to add, the pay rate is pretty high (70s to 80s), but there are lots of responsibilities. If I weren't stuck in Ohio, I would be doing this right nowby sharkcus - Oregon, Portland RepRap User Group
Interesting idea (Maybe it's been talked about/done before here) but this seems like a pretty straight forward, almost "plug and play" to use your phone's capabilities. I'm no programmer, but it looks like something that could definitely be integrated into the reprap projectby sharkcus - Controllers
But there are many free programs that will read one of the Sketchup export types and convert it to STL files. Off the top of my head, I think Meshlab does this.by sharkcus - RepSnapper
I'd like to introduce myself, my name is Marcus. I don't actually live in Portland anymore, but my family (and their 3d printer business) are still in Portland and I make frequent trips. I actually live in Cleveland (not far from Makergear Headquarters I have a fully assembled and printing makergear prusa. Took me awhile to get to this point, but I made it!

Thank you. I will go through all of your suggestions as soon as I get home (specifically grabbing the Y to see if it slips)by sharkcus - RepSnapper
You know, I can see a line where it "plowed" through on the cube, would that be enough to stall? Would I adjust the Z layer height for that or just work with flow? But I did a 20mm "walls only" cube and it did the same thing, there would have been no resistance even if it plow through it. You can kind of see it here: The only reason you dont see the rest of the cube after the shift is becauseby sharkcus - RepSnapper
I started the video right after it messed up, hopefully it makes sense after this.by sharkcus - RepSnapper
This is a bit tricky to explain. I haven't had any awesome prints yet, but I'm getting closer daily. I have my extruding speed dialed in enough now that I was able to move forward enough to discover a new problem. This is on a Prusa with RAMPS and a makergear extruder. I did 4 prints last night of the 40mm test cube. The first one got about 2cm high (Z) and then decided to move about 2cm towardby sharkcus - RepSnapper

I'm from Cleveland, my reprap kit should be coming in this month sometime.by sharkcus - Ohio, Dayton RepRap User Group
