I'm sure that part would be too big, for what they get for those grills though expanding the range of the machine. Still I'd think you'd have to make/sell a LOT of grill to cover that, those printers are expensive I hear.
Stop in for a cup of coffee

They are a cool tool. Like Craig said I remember Karl doing stuff with them in school.
The problem with 3D printing something that large is keeping the heat evening distributed across the entire surface. Very few if any consumer available printers are going to be able to do that. And I can think of maybe one 3D printer that could do it in the commercial side. And even then, that’s if you could even get the material right now. Nylon and ABS plastics are nearly unobtainable at the moment
We use them at work.
Hey Chris. How's everyone this morning?
Petroleum based products
Chris, do you do in- house CAD work to build the part files to print?
Good Morning everyone. I hope all is well. Got some work done around the house this weekend, felt good to finally be able to do more things. Got some projects in mind for after Wed. Off from then until Jan 4. Fingers crossed can make good progress and yet have some down time for fun.
Morning!
Still tired. -16 here at home, almost 0 f.
Light fire in shop today, get organized and back to work.

Always good to make some progress.
ok I guess the two oldest have now developed a cold so we’re hoping it’s not Covid for them.
most plastics are petroleum based.
yep. That’s my entire job. That and now doing the electrical drawings.
You doing electrical drawings?
Coffee time.
I just found my whole USAF elictrical training I got on disk a long time ago from a instructor. Man I forgot half of what I learned at least.
One Christmas down, 2 more to go.
I know right!! But I have an electrical engineer working literally along side me. It’s then checked by 3 other electrical engineers. So far, so good.You doing electrical drawings?
plus I’ve gotten the techs to literally walk me thru multiple times the circuit testing processes so I’m slowing busting down the wall that has been electrical wiring
So pray for a Christmas miracle, but there’s a chance we fight the final stage of the battle for the farm today!
I should get a copy of this disk to you. Starts with ohms law then gets into troubleshooting chips/multy laryed circit boards which I doubt you would need.
Team FABO... go get em Chris
Put it this way if you print it out it is a foot thick.
Hope it works well for you.
Number 3 on its way this sunny and Frosty morning on the hill, Good morning everyone
Our engineer at work has stuff made here. Shapeways: Industrial 3D Printing Service She makes up the file and they print the parts. They can do the whole thing, but no doubt will cost more. Her stuff is on there as 'Days Mill Designs'
Do they have them with multiple print heads? Would think a few overlapping to build a long grill could work.
Good Morning
I dig that mug. Here' one I often use. It's my friend's logo. He has the image tattooed on his back and is opening a coffee shop now that he is retired. Note the twisty the goat is smokin' LOL
