Yesterday I was coming home and a parcel from the USA was waiting for me – It was of course the kit of my 3D printer 🙂 I could not wait a second to start building it up. So here we are – the video shows about 8h in 3:20 minutes.
At some points you can see me confused for some time and putting unfinished modules aside. This is because a few parts were missing… John got back to me over the night and promised to send the missing parts out today. Well, that means I will wait for these parts to arrive for one or two weeks. In this time I can also order some other missing things like plugs for the motors and glue to hold the temperature sensor in place.
Here is a picture of the machine how it is looking at the moment – without any adjustments because I will have to take some parts out again:
By the way – I did the timelapse with the following commands:
skript for resizing the images:
#!/bin/sh
mkdir resized
for f in *.JPG
do convert $f -verbose -resize 1920x1080 -quality 85% resized/$f
done
command for generating the video
