In yesterday’s post about the progress on my big switch mode supply I mentioned that I was going to try building an Arduino based inductance meter based on the basic and straight forward design from Shadi Soundation. I built the meter later in the evening. It seemed to work okay, but the numbers seemed odd when […]

I’m in need of a large DC power supply for an argon laser and other projects. Argon lasers require tons of DC power to produce minimal amounts of output power, thus the power supply needs to be pretty beefy and durable. I also like building things and having projects to work on to help keep […]

I’ve been running some test prints with my Taulman Bridge filament. As you might remember from my previous post the Taulman Bridge filament is very strong and difficult to break or delaminate. A couple of the parts I printed accidentally went through the washing machine, when they came out I noticed that they seemed to have […]

I’ve been working on a project lately which involves building a large switch mode power supply in the range of 220 volts at 35 amps. Because components are expensive at those power levels I decided to go searching for a simulator that was easy to get started with, offered the basic components I needed and […]

I just received some Taulman Bridge Nylon 3D printer filament from extrudables.us this weekend and I’ve been printing just a few parts on it so far. Since I only have 1 pound of the material I am saving it for when I really need it, as opposed to PLA or ABS where I feel like I […]
