About Us
It all started around 2011 when 3 D printing FDM technology run
out of patents protection that held back the entire sector a couple
of decades, and some nuts started making their own 3D printers out of
plywood and stepper motors recuperated from paper printers and other
industrial machines scrapped.
I jumped into it big dreams,
designed myself a 100 printing heads 8 meters wide gantry machine
hoping to print with it my Ultralight Air-plane and the car I
designed, but... stepper motors were so expensive than, no way I
could afford anything, no motherboards, nothing available.
So
I resized to smaller machines, and kept up with the progress, but it
was stupid hard, and anything was so expensive and unreliable until
about 2014 when China out of despair for foreign currencies decided
to sponsor any production activity that would export something,
anything.
And so the super saga begun, they came up with
cheaper and cheaper Aluminium Extrusions, Stepper Motors,
Motherboards, Hotends and Heatsinks, obviously copied from Western
Civilisation inventors and designers without any permission, hence a
theft. They were parasitising us on the creation side since not
capable of research and development as a nation due to decades of
communist indoctrination into "thou shall not think outside the
authorised lines", besides patents and copyrights for them were
a laughable sector, still is.
But it was a symbiotic
parasitism since in return they provided us with dirty cheap 3D
printers (also flimsy and unreliable, but what the heck, they were
cheap and available) cheap motherboards, cheap nozzles and anything
we wanted, this in return helped us to invent more, test more,
develop more, and them stealing our ideas and we buying them ideas
back produced cheap; seemed to be a good game all summed up.
I
doubt that was the China Communist Party plan when they subsidised
anybody who asked capital in China to produce 3D printers, I guess
they only wanted to export and bring home dollars... lol. But
we would of never made it without their greed for western
currencies.
In the last decade I strived to make better and
better printers for my own use, more than juts 3 axis, more than V5
or V6 heatsinks, in fact I went water cooled, dual head water cooled,
tool changing (manual) water cooled, fully enclosed (before it
was legal to commercialise them) and other tests.
Here I try
to come even with the community, everything I sell is the fruit of my
imagination, hundreds of prints and redesign iterations,
- for multiaxial non planar printing (Up to 9 axis) the Rumba, Ballerina, Bolero and Tango systems,
-water cooled in enclosed environments (heated chambers have a problem with fan cooling your heatsink, big problem for some reason...)
-tool changing manually in seconds (the FLIP system)
- Filament
holders, re-spoolers
and much more to come both for improving the 3D printing machines
and generally your house and workshop with tools and
gadgets.
Everything I sell here I Open Source to the
community, feel free to modify them to fit your needs, I don't mind,
you can repost them STL or similar formats in the forum to share with
the others.
If you want to commercially produce them we need
to enter a contractual agreement, this is my work for the last two
decades and I guess I am entitled to pay rent out of my work, and buy
me some food.
Of course I am damn good at some things,
mediocre at many more and not good at all at almost anything that can
be done on Earth, one of them last things is computer programming and
code writing to move machines. And most of my mechanical
devices need to be precisely moved by stepper motors, so I teamed
up. My coder associate is good at G coding, he can write you
the pre sliced GCode for a simple print without designing it in CAD
and passing it through a slicer, he can move robotics, he designs and
prototypes motherboards for industries of various types.
We
shall make his work available too when the time is right.
Now
that you know too much about me and my associate, fell free to let us
know about you in the Forum section.
