About plasmaton

I'm enjoying making things that go blink in the night, functional prints, learning CAD, fixing our things and printing new ones. I'm really enjoying things that let my son tie different building sets together. Interfacing his legos with technic with smartlink etc.

When not printing stuff, I write software at my day job and play with arduinos, teensy, blinky lights, lego mindstorms, quads, robots and other such things in my off-time.

I'm printing on a printrbot simple metal with the following mods:

http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:878681 - much better fan duct

http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:387313 - spool handle

http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:559657 - e3d adapter (using one of the cheap ebay e3d clones)

http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:730243 - ninjaflex anti-buckling guide

http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:439617 - simple filament guide - for flexible filament

http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:384153 - ninjaflex feet for shock absorption and noise reduction

http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:695731 - cable management grommet - keep the gantry cables off the bed

http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:488531 - anti-jam guide (I recommend this if your filament comes in at a 90 degree angle, like it will if you have the above handle/spool holder)

In the event that you want to use some of my work, but you find the license too restrictive, please reach out via a comment or message and I'll see what I can do about it. I tend to be a pretty pro-sharing kind of person.
