Exactly. I made a delta printer about 10 years ago from scratch. Every part has been updated and updated again. Its an adventure.
Do you have any pictures or info on your printer? What would you change?
Have you looked at Klipper to tune out the high speed Issues?
Looking to build on a budget right now. Basically I would dismantle my belt printer to build this and it’s a core xy so I have all the parts including the hot end. I hear you on the core xy, it has its disadvantages, but it makes a clean, easy to make machine. What’s not clean is the Z axis and I agree with you on the screws. I would love a cleaner simpler way of doing z, thats why I am entertaining the idea of a core XZ belt slinger. It does split all the motion up nicely.
I design my own printers and like the challenge. Vorons are expensive and have a ton of parts. I like unique stuff. Ive made my own delta printer and conveyor belt printer. The limitations of those leave me wanting a more traditional style.
Significant for me. Not sure if vsync is working.
Looks like more generic ODM Chinese phones. With a somewhat no-name processor. Nothing to see here.
Making a product made to discourage usage is always going to fail. Palm phone had everyone excited because we wanted a good small phone. Instead they made an intentionally bad small phone and wondered why no one wanted it.
When I ran ABS I used acetone and a scrap piece to make a glue that worked flawlessly on glass.
Bezels stopped mattering a long time ago. The overall height of this phone is 6mm taller than the zenfone and 5mm taller than the iPhone.
You’re saying if ford discontinued all models except for the F350, we could call the short box version a compact truck.
6mm taller is a lot when you’re looking for a small phone, especially using one handed. 3mm is a lot for width too. Now compare it to a true compact like the iPhone mini or Sony compact series and it’s huge. Personally I would not call any of these compact, and if you are going to include a phone with a 6.3" screen, then it loses all meaning.
It’s still significantly bigger than the zenfone 10 or the iPhone and screen size matters more to some of us than the overall size.
Call it a not huge phone or something. Compact should mean something.
Thanks I will have to check it out. I wish it had a flatpak or deb though. I hate appimages.
Can’t say you own any 3d cad software anymore anyway since they all went to subscription only about 10 years ago.
Its not compact, not waterproof, no wireless charging and not available in the US.
I like their pricing scheme though, because most makers work on open source.
I’ve searched for this and couldn’t find it. They must hide it well. How well does it run on Linux?
We’re told that folding phones are the new small phones, but the moment they start to get usable folded they get bigger too.
I came really close to giving it a try. My two biggest gripes were that the unfolded size was too big and the leather back wasn’t standard.
Maybe long term, but plenty of businesses rely on apps that can’t or don’t run on the cloud. I can see them pushing low end devices to this. They have tried several times.
Slower charging, huge energy waste, heats up like mad
For one, you don’t have to use it, so these are never downsides if its on your phone. Secondly none of these are a problem for me. I charge slowly at night, my phone never gets hot, and phone charging is less than .1% of my electric bill.
Madagascar agrees.
