I’m leaving YouTube

In this post I’ll explain my reasons to leave YouTube. My videos will be available on PeerTube and new videos will be added there.

My videos remastered on PeerTube

I uploaded my sixth remastered Solvespace video to PeerTube.

The BQ Hephestos2 (3D printer), nine months later

The Hephestos 2 printer just finished a job. Laying around the printer are Pritt adhesive, a brass brush, cleaning fluid.

After nine months I can say that I’m satisfied with the BQ Hephestos 2 printer. It’s easy to print with and easy to maintain. It doesn’t come with a heated printbed which I consider a shortcoming but for PLA and Filaflex the printer works fine.

Switching from FreeCAD to Solvespace?

Solvespace is a good addition to the existing open source 3D CAD programs such as OpenSCAD and FreeCAD. If you want to try a truly free 3D CAD program but are intimidated by FreeCAD because of it’s steep learning curve and OpenSCAD because of programmers-like approach certainly should give Solvespace a try.

Make a Photography Light Box of cheap material (part 1: design and 3d print).

DIY frame for a Photography Light Box. I designed a 3d printed three way connector to assemble the curtain rods for the box.

DIY Lego Cabinet

Making a woorden Lego cabinet for all this minifigs is easy and cheap. You do need a laser cutter for this project.

Using Filaflex to improve my cooler

Filaflex is excellent material to improve the audio cooler that I made earlier. The material is very flexible and surprisingly strong making it perfect for sealing purposes

Making a tiny audio system for our cooler (part 2)

A made a 3d printed enclosure for the audio components that fits in the coolers lid together with a simple console to operate the audio
