This feels like the right place to link to the Kralyn Positron project which is a compact, open source portable 3D printer.

I started buying parts to make one but haven’t taken the time to get any of the machined parts manufactured yet.

I am certainly not one of the younger folks and had never seen that before. That is awesome, thank you for sharing.

I like to tinker, my brother just wants something that works. I built a Voron, he got Prussa. We are both happy with our 3d printers.

Hypothetical question:

I have a friend named Richard. He prefers to be called Rich but his boss calls him Rick.

Should his boss adjust to call him Rich because that is what he prefers, or should he just accept being called Rick because it is a commonly accepted nickname for Richard?

I use FreeCAD most of the time, but occasionally I’ll also use OpenSCAD. It’s a different way to think about drawings but in certain circumstances it seems easier.
