There is a video on youtube someone making a negative cavity mould, with abs and pouring molten tin, It was a spoon.by 3DS-QUAD - General
My abs mixture is quite thick, really I was looking for a way to silk screen a perfect layer without air bubbles, If the abs glue is smooth as possible you get a clean mirror finish on the prints. I will try a thinner solution tomorrow white spirits turn the abs juice white. Isopropanol will seperate most of the abs from the acetone mix into a globule, after drying is rubbery. I'm thinking couldby 3DS-QUAD - General
I have had some good success with printing direct to glass recently, using a squeegee trying to create an even thin layer on cold glass. However one problem is the time limit from pouring some abs glue onto the glass, Spreading time is very short so it can congeal very quickly. Making it patchy, is there any way to prolong evaporation..by 3DS-QUAD - General
Most of my prints are warping lifting, I really need to find something better, pei is far too expensive. Hairspray is ok for small prints abs/acetone leaves a film, also warps, unless using a really thick layer A raft would decrease the surface contact, that may be enough to seperate maybe.by 3DS-QUAD - General
How effective would ABS sheets be for printing abs There are various Pinseal/Smooth/Carbon effect, different thicknesses 1-5mmby 3DS-QUAD - General

My preferred modelling softwares are autodesk products, 3ds max 2016 not cheap though unless you download torrent. There are freeware which out perform some of the paid applications.by 3DS-QUAD - General
There is a B&Q, all their stuff is expensive. screwfix have a range of brass couplings only smallest was Male Coupler 8mm x ¼" The ebay seller, responded "they dont make a compression with 6mm thread but i can do that with an adpater i stock m6 male to 1/8 & 1/4 Female to which we can fasten any range of fitting" I just added a few pics, of this ceramic break design. should hear soon.by 3DS-QUAD - General
Thanks I searched every compression fitting on ebay, I may have just found right fitting eBay Seller - context-pneumatic-supplies-cpm 6mm x 1/4 Bsp Male Stud 6mm x 1/4 Bsp Male Studby 3DS-QUAD - General
Initially I was going to get a tungsten carbide bit, use cooling fluid during slow drilling, I dont have any tool machining experience. hardening the steel and destroying drill bits would negate any saving, on diy heatbreaks. The Screws are A2/70 Stainless Steel, They have an indentation at the center of the hex inner, which should give me a precise start. If straight drilling is not successful Iby 3DS-QUAD - General

I just tried m8 nuts on a bolt, I was able to turn the bolt. however using two m8 tee nuts it did lock the bolt from turning either clockwise or counter depending on which one was gripped in the vise.by 3DS-QUAD - General
It occured to me before looking at nozzle throats, that for the same cost as a heat break, I could get 10 grubscrews upto 60mm. I did google drilling grubscrews out, the methods were aimed at removal. How to secure a screw from turning without destroying the threads. would it be too hard to drill 30mm.by 3DS-QUAD - General
My collection of waste plastic is enough to make an extruder and an X carriage, without a filament recycling extruder. Making a mould to cast 100% solid parts for my printer. I would like to use the cheapest method possible, I was thinking plaster of paris or high temp silicone. silicone kits on ebay are are expensive, Fine Casting Plaster 1kg was not much. Is casting a low infill 3d print withby 3DS-QUAD - General
