Krakin's Home Dipole Project

Krakin, are you some sort of mad scientist?

I would have replied earlier, but I was measuring the output of my amp with a yardstick . . .

What you hear is not the air pressure variation in itself

but what has drawn your attention

in the two streams of superimposed air pressure variations at your eardrums

An acoustic event has dimensions of Time, Tone, Loudness and Space

Everyone learns to render the 3-dimensional localization of sound based on the individual shape of their ears,

thus no formula can achieve a definite effect for every listener.

I love these things. My teacher was a prick tho and was trying to charge like $10/cubic inch. I got a half scale of my router base that I made to send to toolmakers for a jig but it was only half scale so I couldnt. And printed another part but it was shit. That machine was junk and had me printing in the .013 accuracy. Cost $26000 like 4.5 yrs ago and couldnt melt the plastic enough to get a good look. But it was fun to use. That wheel looks fucking sick.

Now this is what I'm talking about. Everyone so worried about ppl creating guns with these. I'd be making car parts, tv frames, household stuff. I'd build a car with it if I could, oh wait you can.

if nothing changes, nothing changes

you could build it but Im not sure how solid it would be. you would still need to do something about any moving part and the engine would have to be real as well.

Depends how thick it is. But my one part that is like <1/4" thick is pretty solid. But probably brittle if it bends.

It cost $9 a cubic inch when we bought out last shipment of materials (3-4 years ago). My wheel is printing in 0.0100 inch layers and the whole assembly was about $23 grand 5 years ago and we just bought the $2,000 program lease for the second time, because the IT guy whipped it from all the computers 2 years ago. Then the company wouldn't send us the files without buying it again...

you could build it but Im not sure how solid it would be. you would still need to do something about any moving part and the engine would have to be real as well.

Not completely 3D printed, but mostly.

So my fear of the machine running out of material after I left came true. About 30 mins after I was gone it happened... And apparently the robotics team that was there couldn't figure out how to do it or didn't want to touch it. They also waited till this morning to tell me instead of last night when I could have came back and fixed it all up..

that sucks to hear man....those machines are cool to watch.....don't understand with all the tech out there why we still need to be converting files, but I guess it makes money for more companies. Does the machine recognize when it runs out and goes on stand-by?

I'm am more than positive that it can, mainly just based on the cost of the damn thing lol.

I looked further into the printer's specs and found that it does have the option to print down to 0.007" layers, mine must have just been too big of a part or something. Idk.

For files think that you just made some insane 3D modeling program, now you need a way to save the projects that are made on your program with your version of coding. Just way too many programs for a universal file type. The converting however doesn't take long at all and is part of the saving options in the design program I use.

The printer's program just try's to optimize the file for the best way to print it.
