After some drilling and Jerry rigging, I managed to get my new cure chamber up and running! My nephew made the box for me, I just got my lights in and had to bend a spare nail to make a latch. She ain't pretty, but she'll work. @ North Pole, Alaska

It always feels a little macabre printing pieces and parts like this, but thankfully they're for a dragon and not a humanoid!

Something big is printing! This is wing part 1/3.

Replaced the hotend on the Anycubic i3 Mega S today. Grateful includes a whole, prebuilt replacement with their new printers! Did some reading and found out that I was about 3x the recommended maintenance interval on the hotend. I won't make that mistake again! Here's to better printing.

One of my coworkers tested positive for COVID-19, which means I get two weeks of quarantine. Stay posted for all the new prints I'll be posting!

We have our very own logo, now!

A friend of mine printed this Amulet of Talos out for my brother while he was up here visiting. I got to paint it! Used an airbrush to get the blue into the details, then manually painted the rest. Lighter metallic paint on the high points and edges, then washed it all for a slightly more weathered look- I think it turned out pretty well for 30-45 minutes' work.

My latest lithophane! The contrast in the photo wasn't the best for a lithophane, but being able to print in resin, with a thin material, you can highlight the differences between high and low points which allows the print to work better than a similar composition in, say, PLA. @ North Pole, Alaska

This is not a problem I ever envisioned having! I'm running out of room to store my filament!

A friend of mine was generous enough to 3d print some parts to fix/improve my printer... and now I'm waiting on a $4USD bearing to show up before I get the i3 Mega back up and running.
It still blows my mind that I can- quite literally- 3d print parts to fix my 3d printer. I look forward to seeing where the technology takes us!
Already, we are seeing filament for standard fused deposition modeling (FDM- your stereotypical "3d printer,") that allows you to print in steel. It's a far cry from a standard, metal printer, and the price is still a bit high for my purposes, but the technology exists! It is accessible for the masses, and as time goes on, the market will only drive the price down.
The future is now, friends. We are living in a time the likes of Asimov and Verne could, perhaps, only dream of. We are far from perfect, as a society, but we are progressing rapidly into a bright and accessible future. @ North Pole, Alaska

I've been considering changing the company name from "907 Model Makers" to "North Star Model Makers." Any thoughts/opinions?

The dwarf is one of my player's characters, Alfredo! Designed on HeroForge, printed on the Photon with Elegoo grey resin.
