3DP Volunteer Day, Sunday 9/20

Did you feel left out because you weren’t able to make it to the 3D Printer Shuffle? Have no fear, we have more shuffling to do! We didn’t have long enough cables for the AMS units, so we had to swap the positions of the P1S and the MK3S+ printers. But we have new cables now, so we should be able to move them to their intended positions.

While we have the printers off of the shelves, we’ll take the opportunity to do their regular maintenance.

As usual, everyone is welcome. No prior experience is required. We’ll be there from 11:30 to 2:30.

Bonus: after the Volunteer Day, we’ll be chatting about 3D Modeling: 3D Modeling/CAD/CAM SIG? Office Hours?

Thanks again to our amazing volunteers! We have:

  1. built drawers for the AMS units
  2. Relocated the AMS- enabled P1S units
  3. Relocated the MK3S+es to a hopefully more comfortable height
  4. Upgraded the firmware on the Prusa printers so that they no longer complain about old firmware!
  5. Set up an experiment in vibration isolation

Special thanks to @flowmage, the mastermind behind many of the improvements @Julie, our top problem-solver, @stuckey for just getting stuff done, and all of the other volunteers who’ve helped make this possible!
