Allllll good dude. Mine are also non cc (and I never plan on claiming rights to payment for the designs contributed nor expect anyone to follow non cc licenses and plan to put money to action and stop peoples….but anyway) I still think magic johnson is the best possible player ever and nobody can ever think otherwise. Everyone else is a copycat or unethically copying him. He was the official first. Lololol
I agree that there is a line we shouldn’t cross. I think it’d be wrong to outright copy someone’s idea they took the time to make and shared it for free. There is some gray area IMO. For example the ones I have from VCA I feel like have a design flaw. That’s my second pair that’s broken at the same spot. If someone made a better version that wasn’t just a copy, I’d feel ok buying it. I wouldn’t buy a rebranded copy. Just because something is legal since it isn’t patent protected, doesn’t make it ok. Kinda with the issue with the copy cat vortech pumps that are now available. Although it isn’t a fair comparison because one is a huge company that rips people off and the other is a small business. I’m not that handy at designing yet but some reefers have shared some files with me, I’d never think it’d be ok to turn around and use that file for profit. Ive designed a few simple versions of frag plug holders that fit in the specific cup I’m planning to use for the frag swap. I’d be embarrassed to say how much time I’ve spent on something that looks so simple lol. I had to print and make adjustments like six different times for it to fit in the jar how I wanted it to. I can’t imagine how long more complicated things take. My respects to people who design and are willing to share their files. Too bad sometimes people don’t understand that just because it’s legal, doesn’t mean it’s moral. I think everyone in the club got to see how that felt last frag swap with the raffle lol. Just my two cents
Yea i hope not to see something like that happen again, clearly in the grey area I wouldn't argue that, but it felt wrong.
I never ment for my comment to be taken the wrong way as things can be over text. I just ment it as if you look around your house everything is an upgraded version of that exact same thing. If you look at your TV and how much it has changed over the past almost hundred years. Color, size, weight, remote, led, that type of comparison could go on and on with everything. Copying someone else's work with the exact same thing is a cheeky thing to do but the majority of the time innovation is just an improvement of something that already exists.
Impressive you got it to stand and print that high. There isn’t anything other than reorientation or redesign.
I switched to these 8 oz jars and lights. Then tried these two holders. I like the one in the left more
Maybe make the stick thicker? Mine came out ok I think I did the poles 5mm
Yeah it definitely takes a long time to print but it comes out pretty clean
Another way to save on filament is to print with no top or bottom infill. Infill and perimeter only. Sometimes you can still print down to 5% and connect all the features
Cents. I forgot the exact number I can check later
I’m still kinda new to this but I just used this PETG and it’s worked good for me
