I need to put this writing. It’s not the first time. it’s about the human expectation of fast is always better and that the fastest is the winner of the race. But Three Dimensional printing has never been a race. I see hobbyist 3D printing expectations rising to a point that can not be achieved …
Just moved my KautzCraft LASER off LightSail on the Amazon Web Service. No problems living there, but it was a complication and added cost to operate. I have a server for all my other websites and they all run fine and there is no additional cost for adding additional websites. KautzCraft LASER is an extremely …
I am totally re-enjoying my full retirement since I closed down the on-line / side-line business. I am now a very concentrated hobbyist. I love to design and make things. My many creative websites and blogs are listed in the first page of this website. My present passion is involved with three dimensional printing. As …
There is a huge problem in todays world, but probably has always existed. That is there are far too many “experts” who think they have the one and only answer in their “speciality”. Expert and Science are not one and the same. Both have become greatly diminished in quality through “spin tactics” of human based …
Number one activity for me at age 75 is playing with my 3D print machines. I will admit to owning ten. Not all at one time but I have had up to four printing at the same time. Several are temporarily out of commission. Meaning fixable but no reason to do so. The newest is …
The real world is not about constant perfection. The simple truth is perfection is never a constant condition. I believe unobtainable if one looks hard enough. The tiniest flaws are sill there. Perfection is a goal dreamed up by competitive scoring. Like the “perfect 10” in the Olympics. Moving towards perfection is admirable. The reason …
Yesterday (Sunday) I did some “poking around” with several of my SBC (Small Board Computers). The Raspberry Pi. One of them is shown to the right, a RPi4B, is in full time use running OctoPrint, a print server application for 3D printers. It’s the only thing it does and it does if very well. I …
I admit that PETG (Polyethylene terephthalate glycol) is one of my favorite FDM printing filaments. My only issues using it has been from extruder heat control. Those issues have been due to poor dynamic thermal conductance within the heating system. Nothing to do with the PETG material. The solution for me has been to use …
I posted a blog on computer keyboards in my Ramblin’ Dan blog-site. That post was more in regards to considering a new keyboard style rather than any action taken. A friend is trying to convince me a mechanical key keyboard is the “cat’s meow”. (An excellent thing…) The lead picture is of a Keychron K4. …
Just hacking away on this website design and layout. Using the ASTRA template (free) version. I don’t need or want anything too fancy. It’s not a commercial revenue producing presentation website. Tried several of the Word Press templates, 2020 and 2021. I use ASTRA on the KautzCraft LASER blog site. I like the clean look …
