Are you Jorden Petersoning me?

yeah a loom and a sewing machine are way different

@Snowback I thought that was the idea.

@Red Korvo kill yourself

Looms have to be very big and have a shit ton of moving parts

You need to feed in a bunch of strands all at the same time

Like making a home size loom to get cheaper Kevlar is rarted

There is literally no way to have a machine that would loom out material and sew it in 3d at the same time

You need a machine the size of a ford f350

And a sewing machine

An injection molder and an mill are very different too, but 3d printers can make structures that would require both. I'm looking for the 3d printer of... thread. I know it's not a thing and won't be for a while. But a man can dream.

It doesn't work like that

3d printers dont weave

They dont stitch things together

Holy shit bro

All 3d printers work by applying a hot material to bond to another hot material of the same kind

I've been patient with you

Did I ask for a 3d printer that could use thread? I used it as an analogy. I know you can't use thread with a printer.

But equating a 3d printer to a mill and injection molding machine

Im boutta go off

😂

FDM printing is still garbage tier

Like literally

I'm aware of the limits and differences between those two and a printer. Very aware. I own a damn printer.

@Red Korvo bro yea you can

filament is basically thread

Good for form factor testing and memes to post on reddit

just melty thread

@Red Korvo I'm telling you that you can not just run a single stitch and create an item with one big spool of material. It doesn't work like that. You need flat sheets of woven fabric to be stitched together to make stuff.

Like your talking about spewing out a line that you are then somehow turning back on its self and sewing into shapes without every tying its self in a knot

<:bump:559970205221126145>

nah man thatll totally work

But if you want to make something out of kevlar its extremely easy and cheap

Buy kevlar inserts from surplus vests

Cut it to shape

Sew it together

Boom you got whatever the fuck.you want

North Hollywood gigga nigga armor coming right up

Yeah you call literally just add more layers to make armor 3a

There is a specific formula for kevlar layers to certain ratings

You just need really sharp tools and a decently powerful or sturdy sewing machine

It's like $100 for a good sewing machine
