You’re right! Tech companies need to stick to the easier problem to solve, self-driving cars! 😆

They have self-driving cars, but self-closing doors is still at least 10-15 years away.


Boo! At that point, I think I’d try to get high-temp PLA if having a matte finish is a priority. What sort of durability are you attempting to achieve with this matte PETG?


I’ve never seen a PETG that isn’t glossy. Maybe this stuff is so hydrophilic that the little time it spends outside whatever storage environment you have allows it to get really wet?


Hey, the poor billionaire CEOs are under a bunch of pressure to ensure the company sticks to its infinite growth schedule.


Sadly, I’m guessing this is transparent to iOS users, they think they’re supporting creators with $X each month, but behind the scenes, the creator is getting $X * 0.7 and then I’m guessing Patreon also takes some off the top of that for their infrastructure.


Damn! Creators are going to need another Patreon to supplement their Apple-induced Patreon shortfall.


I’m not sure. Current “dumb” TVs do actually exist, just search for commercial TVs. All the major brands make them for commercial applications where the end user has no need for traditional smart apps. Sadly, they cost a bit more (but not by a ridiculous amount) and may not have the latest alphabet soup image tech, but they look fine and work great. They still run an OS, but it’s stripped down to the bare essentials, usually just settings and input, not usually any apps. If any apps are installed, they’re unobtrusive and geared toward their intended purpose. I’ve been tempted to buy one, but the larger the TV the wider the price gap. The sweet spot seems to be at 65".


Idk, even the oldest HDTVs used RAM, sadly.


Sorry, that was the only place I knew it existed at the time. The YT algorithm suggested it to me. I did remove the stupid tracking ID from it though.
Would it be bad taste to swap out the link with the one on ccc.de?


I’m tired of this! How can we start our own RAM foundry–is that the right term? Surely there’s a YT tutorial somewhere.


That’s awesome, sounds like we made identical configurations! For the original roller, I ended up having to widen the part with the spoke 1mm so that my bearings would roll, but it seemed like such a waste to use 4 per box. It wasn’t until a few weeks later I came across cmyk’s solution. I really like it except it is a bit difficult to get a nut to interface with a screw. I think I have the knack down now. Really, I could almost see not using a screw and nut with it since it fits together so tightly, but if I didn’t do it, it would probably come apart at the worst time during a print.


I went with gunplamark’s Ultimate Cereal Drybox too. For mine, I did his remix with cmyk’s precision single bearing rollers (https://www.printables.com/model/1339511-precision-single-bearing-spool-rollers) instead, which only uses two bearings instead of 4 per box. I also made myself a pegboard adapter using Sy’s pegboard pegs and a blank hanger.
Ahh, the Prussian Curse!


Nice! I really like these boxes based upon that cereal box, but you have to watch out, there are copycats of the Wildone. This is the one you should buy (and appears to be the one you used): https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07NP98YKY.
At first, I accidentally purchased ones by “MCIRCO.” Despite having almost the exact same product pictures, they are not the same.


It’s for the Right reasons.
Sorry, I’ll see myself out.


Hey, Microsoft said 10 was the last version of Windows…
What are they going to do when these states hand over a list of violations at $7,500 per violation?
