3D Printing

Learning how to use our new Artillery Sidewinder X1 printer

Models from Thingiverse - <a href="https://www.thingiverse.com/">https://www.thingiverse.com/</a>

Print bed size is 30 x 30 x 40cm - so this printer is huge

PLA+ is our filament of choice currently.

We need to update the PTFE tube for a Capricorn one - which has a higher temperature tolerance

We also have a new Metal Extruder Arm coming to replace the plastic one

Fitting is requires taking the print head apart !!!

Also looking for a de-burrer

Current issue is Elephant Feet which has the first layer slightly wider than all other layers

The way to get models onto the printer is via a memory stick, which is a great solution

Showing the models we have printed

ScanSnap iX500 document scanner

Latest model appears to be the iX1600 - <a href="https://www.amazon.co.uk/ScanSnap-iX1600-Black-Document-Scanner/dp/B08QDBY4QN">https://www.amazon.co.uk/ScanSnap-iX1600-Black-Document-Scanner/dp/B08QDBY4QN</a>

Scan multiple documents into one pdf file and automatically upload to Evernote - <a href="https://evernote.com/">https://evernote.com/</a>

I am doing my accounts early to get them submitted before the July payment date
