Ouch

2018-05-22 10:10:46 UTC  

Sounds like something I'd expect from taobao though

2018-05-22 10:10:51 UTC  

also the legendary "me choose for you, you quiet now"

2018-05-22 10:11:03 UTC  

Ah yes <:wholesomethonk:373550351082848267>

2018-05-22 10:22:37 UTC  

I wonder how hard it would be to CNC and anodize my own case.....

2018-05-22 10:22:59 UTC  

easy

2018-05-22 10:23:01 UTC  

it would be expensive

2018-05-22 10:23:09 UTC  

^ and that

2018-05-22 10:23:19 UTC  

its just couple of bends and hole

2018-05-22 10:23:22 UTC  

aliexpress had some really neat cnc cases

2018-05-22 10:23:25 UTC  

so not that expensive tho

2018-05-22 10:23:59 UTC  

specialy if you ask it to be done from "parts lying around"

2018-05-22 10:24:13 UTC  

any machine shop usualy has some "extra" stuff somewhere

2018-05-22 10:24:28 UTC  

first link

2018-05-22 10:24:30 UTC  

that anodisation would be more expensive part of that

2018-05-22 10:25:58 UTC  

hell your local university/UAS might do it for cheap as shit

2018-05-22 10:26:22 UTC  

specialy if you diy your cad's

2018-05-22 10:26:29 UTC  

yeah that would be the place to go for cheap cnc if you have the option to

2018-05-22 10:26:39 UTC  

I know mine does free 3d printing

2018-05-22 10:26:55 UTC  

iirc you just have to pay for the material used

2018-05-22 10:27:05 UTC  

we have infinite free 3d printing as students ^^ not even materials cost us dohohohoho

2018-05-22 10:27:23 UTC  

(tho limited to bulk material rolls)

2018-05-22 10:27:31 UTC  

afaik our CNC hours are free to us too

2018-05-22 10:27:40 UTC  

but the material costs is on us

2018-05-22 10:28:32 UTC  

sadly our upcoming sintering machine will not be fully free to use ;_;

2018-05-22 10:28:44 UTC  

it would be fucking dream

2018-05-22 10:30:05 UTC  

option to 3D print with cobalt-chrome mixes and SS

2018-05-22 10:30:25 UTC  

even with -50% (dunno yet hopefully around that or more)

2018-05-22 10:30:27 UTC  

its quite good

2018-05-22 10:38:03 UTC  

You get the materials on 3D print for free?

2018-05-22 10:38:05 UTC  

Damn

2018-05-22 10:38:19 UTC  

Is it that unpopular to print at your place?

2018-05-22 10:39:02 UTC  

<--mechanical engineering student at UAS

2018-05-22 10:39:38 UTC  

so yeah asking price from it would be quite silly

2018-05-22 10:39:55 UTC  

as the plastics dont cost really nothing when bulk ordered by schools

2018-05-22 10:40:47 UTC  

and they might get extra discounts since theyre, y'know, schools

2018-05-22 10:41:33 UTC  

yeah afaik we get some rarer materials (wood,test materials like 10% metal, stuff for our printers for free from local places

2018-05-22 10:41:41 UTC  

just so we test em and invent around them

2018-05-22 10:43:45 UTC  

I should probably play around with the printers we have but I dont know CAD at all

2018-05-22 10:44:13 UTC  

one of my dads colleagues from belarus is a huge 3d printing nerd and he has some neat spray that he uses on prints
