I decided to design a new extruder system based on a Nema 14 stepper motor. These things are extremely light. Two of the holes align with a Nema 17 hole pattern. In part 2 I will be checking fitment. I will be making mount for top and side mounted linear rail and Creality based systems.
Here is the Stepper on Amazon

My nightvision IR board got fried during my POE board repair. There is typically two thing that go wrong with night vision. One is the IR board and the other is the Lens shutter.

I was kind of surprises when I saw these spring couplers on the more expensive 3018 CNC. Normally on the cheaper 3018 I see the solid couplers. one of my locking bearing blocks has a lot of play from the factory. I decided to upgrade to Solid couplers and be done with it.

I had a bunch of old CD-RW and DVD-RW I wanted to throw away. I have a few laser projects coming up and wanted to see if I could salvage some of these laser diode. I prefer the 3 pin Laser diodes because they easier to figure out polarity. I these should operate between 2V-5V.

My kid finally broke his Samsung tablet. The repair is very easy an only took about 20 minutes. Replacement screen was only 19.99 on Amazon. It might seem intimidating at first but its quite easy. Now that the screen is repaired I decided to put a new heavy duty case on it. I got a SUPCASE unicorn beetle on amazon for 19.99

I got this GPU from a scalper on offerUp. The retail from Microcenter out the door was $705 but the scalp price was $820. I've seen these cards going on Amazon for $1200. Check out the scalper link below.

This is a pretty cool new feature on some miners. You can statically lock the GPU core clock reducing power. I personally save 24 watts of power on a 1660 super and 3070. If you have a dedicated computer to mine then you need to be running HiveOS. Windows mining is garbage.
Nice 3070 Video Card
