There is just something about watching those things print, it's mesmerizing.

Nice Ian, I'll be waiting for that video

Joking aside, you really have to respect the work those girls put into it. The core strength of some of the real pros is bloody insane. Maybe I'm weird but that's actually what I pay more attention to when watching

Well tonight I had a night where everything fails...

First I wanted to change something simple on the model I am working on. Then desigspark told me it could not save the file due to a missing dll. What ever I do I can't change the file or any design (need to reinstall that one I guess). I could save the stl though. So I ran the model through cura and saved the gcode. In the meantime my printer is warmed up. So I check the leveling of the bed because I still have some issues. Every time I need to adjust when I start a print. Well I found the source.. The 2mm glas is not flat anymore. The aluminum under it still is. So I guess printing on 2mm glass does not work over time. I still had some steel sheet so I throw that on the bed. I discarded it from previous attempts because it thought it is not flat enough, well it is better then the glass right now. So I tried printing again... poor adhesion. Yep I never tested it with abs yet. So try again add some glue. Now there is something strange it seems it is not extruding well. Lots of hairs and small tracks. Stop that print. Try extruding by hand everything fine. So start again. Extrusion fine, part is lifting from the bed. :???:

I guess it is time to got to bed.....

Ahh screw work, there goes my concentration. Thank you Ian...

I was too admiring the... core strength... of that hideous lady...

 

[DidierKlein 729]

I bet no one on this forum can do a quarter of the tricks she does :mrgreen: looks very nice and i also bet she has more abs and strength than most of us (nerds)

 

[ian 32]

this might surprise people but I wasnt blatently looking for porno on youtube when I found this ! no no !

I actually did one hours sport yesterday and was looking for some quick sports studio music on youtube to keep me jumping... this was one of the firstr recommendations...

I am a man and of course !... i had to check it out...

Apart from this police women being very... beautiful.... I have to say... monster respect for what the women can do !!

OH MY GOD !!.... If we could do 1 percent of what that women did.. we are doing good !!

Its almost not imporant that the women is.. a hot bombshell..... almost !! ;-)

Have a super day guys !!

Big Hugs.

Ian :-)

 

[DidierKlein 729]

Sorry for the double post :mrgreen:

Had to share this:

 

 

If you don't know barnacules i recommend his videos

 

[ian 32]

plus shame on all of us !! for not giving the Ukranian police women no LIKES !! ;-)

 

[skint 61]

Great video Ian, reminded me very much of my Sunday night out I finally got to my hotel room at 7am, oh and had to catch a train at 10am :???:

Tueday and I should really have gone to work, but still feel quite rough so booked a holiday haha

Now... @ Robert. Happy birthday ( sorry im very late )... but i think its time i cut down on the alcohol and started exersizing as much as you do!! I`m going out today to buy some running shoes!

 

[Nicolinux 288]

Hey Skint, don't try to buy motivation with running shoes. Just go out and run. If you'll do it a few times and still keep doing it, then its time for new shoes (at least that'd be my recommendation).

 

[IRobertI 517]

Ugh, running... I can't understand how people can enjoy that, I hate it with a passion. That's just too boring for me, I need variety

And I don't do all that much, it's 30-35 minutes a day. Granted it's not an easy program, but the time commitment is very doable for anyone. It's called P90X3 for anyone who wants to give it a shot. I have to say the previews/commercials for it on youtube makes it seem a lot more hardcore and serious than it is. Tony Horton (the trainer) is

. I find him funny but some people hate it hehe.

Speaking of, time to start up a print and go do Dynamix

 

[DidierKlein 729]

Before i didn't really enjoy running. I just couldn't understand the point of running. Running after a ball (i played basketball for 15 years) i understand but running after nothing...

Then i started running, and now i enjoy it. Okay it's not the most awesome thing but it helps taking the stress away, and when you finish running the feeling of having moved your lazy ass is quite good.

Yesterday i had a test (i ran with some locals of my village in a group called 'Je cours pour ma forme' (i run for my health). The goal was for me to run 45minutes non stop and do at least 5km. I had the goal to do at least 8km, well i did 8.64 km and it felt great achieving something i couldn't imagine 3 months ago when i started running (i had to walk after 10 to 15minutes at that moment).

Now i'm planning to run 10km for my next goal (in an hour max). And for next year maybe i'll give a semi-marathon a try but i'll need more training

I used to feel that way too, but last summer I started to run outdoors.

What I like most is that you can just put on your running shoes, step out the door and you are in 'the gym'.

You don't need anything else and it is a great way to loose some of the energy you have left at the end of the day.

I think I mentioned it earlier, but since a couple of weeks I also started indoor climbing.. Another thing I never thought I would enjoy that much.. but the feeling of hanging on a couple of plastic handles 30 feet up from the floor is great and it is also a great exercise for your body, without getting exhausted.

Besides that I also do volleybal, but the competition just ended until I thinkkkk.. September.

Ian :smile:

 

Too bad you missed Roberts Bday, you would have looked rather good in that pole dancing outfit :mrgreen:.

 

[ian 32]

Thanks Aaron !! I was waiting for someone to say that ! ;-)

Infact I think if some one gave me a hard enough weggy with my black boxers.. I could pull off something similiar !!

Robert.. we could give it a go... but for the next birthday party !! ;-)

night guys !!

Ian :-)

 

[aaronalai 2]

Lol, I would definitely go to an Ultimaker Convention to see that!

 

[Nicolinux 288]

@Didier: Nice avatar. The geek glasses fit you very well. Wearing them with pride is all that counts.

I whish my UM2 was in working order... I'd print them in UM gold bling bling

 

[skint 61]

:cry: Work is so boring :cry:

Another hour or so and then I`m off home to stare at my beautiful um2 printing useless items haha

Has Ian started his new job already ?
