since most are tuned that way

2017-11-29 13:21:40 UTC  

I think that's what these are going for

2017-11-29 13:21:53 UTC  

adjustable height

2017-11-29 14:10:35 UTC  

@Deleted User because when you're buying a $5000 mixer board and a $1000/ea pair of monitors to plug into your $10,000 computer in your room covered with $3000 of acoustic foam the brain tricks you into choosing convenience of getting them all the same place over saving a measley $40 on this or that

2017-11-29 14:11:03 UTC  

oh and can't forget your $500 mics, plural

2017-11-29 14:11:10 UTC  

and the cables to go with em

2017-11-29 14:12:46 UTC  

Just print them out nigga

2017-11-29 14:14:48 UTC  

hmm I might have access to a 3D printer at a local school

2017-11-29 14:14:51 UTC  

that could be cool

2017-11-29 14:14:54 UTC  

kinda like how dell gets away with charging $225 for a pcie riser when you're buying a $50,000 r930

2017-11-29 14:14:56 UTC  

never printed anything before

2017-11-29 14:15:14 UTC  

printing something that big is not easy or cheap

2017-11-29 14:15:34 UTC  

you're gonna have to design it in multiple parts and then glue/solventweld them together

2017-11-29 14:16:04 UTC  

or just have access to a BIG printer but that is not cheap

2017-11-29 14:16:53 UTC  

also: designing a part to 3d print and actually using a slicer properly is a learned skill, not worth doing if you just want to have thing tbh

2017-11-29 14:17:33 UTC  

just stack some books or s/t

2017-11-29 14:17:53 UTC  

🤔 I do have a lot of books lying around

2017-11-29 14:17:55 UTC  

that's an idea

2017-11-29 14:18:57 UTC  

hi i love you all

2017-11-29 14:19:12 UTC  

as i guess apparently the resident 3d printing/cnc nerd: tried printing speaker stands, went horrible, legit had an easier time printing headphone parts

2017-11-29 14:19:39 UTC  

I had an idea

2017-11-29 14:20:08 UTC  

yeah I can imagine

2017-11-29 14:20:12 UTC  
2017-11-29 14:20:14 UTC  

You could just design some wedges

2017-11-29 14:20:59 UTC  

I might do It on AutoCAD later if I have some spare time

2017-11-29 14:21:10 UTC  

you'd need a large bed to make big enough single wedges

2017-11-29 14:21:37 UTC  

and that means you either get a lot of "ringing" artefacts on the print from the frame wobbling, or you print suuuper slow

2017-11-29 14:22:05 UTC  

also it can legit take longer to print large things than it'd take for it to ship if you just buy one, this is one of those things

2017-11-29 14:23:03 UTC  

my raspberry pi rackmount blade chassis thing took something on the order of two weeks actual print time

2017-11-29 14:25:18 UTC  

that's including failed prints, ofc

2017-11-29 14:25:24 UTC  

which are kinda just part of the game

2017-11-29 14:25:38 UTC  

point is 3d printed speaker stand: not the best plan

2017-11-29 14:25:46 UTC  

just stack books or set em on a box

2017-11-29 14:25:50 UTC  

i still wanna attatch a 3d printer head onto my cnc router eventually

2017-11-29 14:26:04 UTC  

i'd suggest just buying/building a printer

2017-11-29 14:26:15 UTC  

already building a cnc router

2017-11-29 14:26:16 UTC  

you don't have a tall enough z axis on a router to get much use with fdm

2017-11-29 14:26:26 UTC  

i could make it as tall as i want

2017-11-29 14:26:31 UTC  

and if you try to _make_ it tall enough you'll run into rigidity issues while cutting

2017-11-29 14:26:33 UTC  

im gonna have to build a bunch more anyway
