Programming/Editors

• VSCode

Most of the work is done here. I use PlatformIO to do the microcontroller stuff.

• Arduino IDE
  

Use to quickly check stuff without creating a whole new project in PlatformIO.
Simple. Elegant. It just works.

• Notepad

Used to check different files in a pinch.

• Fusion 360

Most of the heavy lifting is done here. Say whatever you want about their business model, but you have to admit that autodesk makes some good software.

• FreeCAD

Plan B. I'm still teaching myself FreeCAD, but it's hard.

• Meshmixer

Used to edit STL files.

• Microsoft 3D Builder

One of the most underrated 3D mesh programs in existance. The auto-fix tool is one of the fastest and easiest way to fix non-manifold models. Yes, it's worse than going into blender/meshmixer and manually editing each and every polygon, but honestly, the output is usually very nice, and almost always useable.

• Blender

Used to fix non-manifold models, and prepare them for printing.

• Cura

My go-to slicer.

• Peanut MK.I

LITERALLY a piece of junk. The design is from 2013 ffs. And it's not even a proper peanut. Built from broken, bottom-of-the-barrel parts and broken acryllic pieces.
But it still chugs on, and I think that's nice. Has Horrible z-artifacts, but is still useable after all these years. After all it's been through, it's basically a war veteran at this point.
Mods: 2020 extrusion frame, heated bed, Octoprint and firmware upgrade. Also, general parts swap and maintenance.

• VORON V0

The print quality is just. kisses air Mwah! Mmmh! Yeah,Boi It's the good stuff. but hoLY FUCK ITS SO LOUD WHAT THE FUCK WHY THE FUCK WHAT WHY HOW If I print over 40mm/s (Which I admit, is sorta slightly speedy for a stock v6 hotend) the thing starts bweeping like a geriatric fax machine from the 80's like WOW
Also, the 30mm fan is SO LOUD WHAT IS THIS A JET ENGINE? It goes SHWWWEEEWWWWWWRRRRWWWWWEEESSSSHHHHHH AND I CANT HEAR MY SELF THINK ITS AS IF IM IN A JET ENGINE WIND TUNNEL
But yeah, amazing print quality, 10/10 would build again.

• Hypercube Evolution

WIP.
