Winner!
It’s 1/2" melamine, with 1/4" melamine for the face panel. That makes it an easy cut for the LR, but it’s a test build, to see what needs to be different for a final model. Some parts should be lighter weight, and some need to be shaped differently. The speaker holes won’t quite hold the intended speakers, for example, not deep enough.
The melamine is nice though, but definitely needs the T molding.
Please please please!
Has anyone calculated the Young’s modulus of chocolate?
I have sorta the opposite problem - if I had a dollar for every time I forgot I was holding on to something and thus went out and bought a new one, I’d be rich.
I’ve decided that the best thing for me to do is use Facebook marketplace as a sort of communal slow-retrieval storage device for expensive stuff I don’t use often. Buy it used, use it, sell it used. The next time I need one, I just do the same thing…
Prusa have a nice (but of course incomplete, there’s a lot of filaments out there…):
CNC kitchen on YouTube also have lots of videos comparing (and testing) filaments types/brands.
Prusa’s material table is neat, has been around for a while though… Don’t know how current their data is, for example Overture released tech data sheets earlier this year that look better than the 2020 numbers Prusua observed…
Still no response from Overture folks.
I did not know this! Glad I saw it. I was planning on matte because I do not like the shiny but scratch that.
Just need to cool it to LN2 temps…
42 …. Maybe
Yeah me too. A bit bummed… I’ve gotten some super clean prints with matte white PLA. At 20mm layer height and ironing the top surface it looks like a production part… I was blown away.
But it seems the layers do not adhere as well as standard PLA, smaller parts pulled apart easier than I expected.
Not a total loss… plenty of cosmetic prints to come, the matte stuff seems good enough for cable routing, electronics cases, or things like spacers where you’re just clamping against the top and bottom faces of a print.
Every time I try, I get a stomach ache and take a nap.
“Cogito ergo comedendum scelerisque” (I think, therefore I eat chocolate).
That just means you have a passionate fan base here instead of a cult. Don’t know your life goals, but I’d assume the former is preferable to the latter. 
Blessing and a curse.
chocolate pairs well with an old fashion or a bourbon neat…
just sayin 
CNC helps validate an idea quickly and helps with small production runs. At some point a laser just starts to make more sense. How do we make a Mostly Printed DIY Fiber laser?? 
This should hold us off until the next batch shows up.
umm do we need to get off the forum and start refreshing on the store now
Not yet…Hold tight
Whoa Nellie… This picture set my heart a fluttering. Parts for the V4 and pallet wood for projects.
1st thing I am going to cut is another Paulk workbench.
