Join Stephen and Lucian as they wrap up this year by giving a year-end review of the good, the bad, and the ugly of 2024. From Prusa closing their source to FreeCAD 1.0 squeaking in at the last minute, they cover quite a bit while enjoying the memories. See you all in 2025!

It’s alive!! 🔥 I am literally a 30 years old dad learning to assemble pcbs in my basement. The board it’s making is very similar to a benchy in the 3d printing world. It tests calibration of the machine. The pcb has double sided sticky tape on the top so the resistor stays in place. It picks it from the tape, checks alignment of the resistor on the nozzle over the top of the camera ( light part ), and then places it in on the board. This was my first ever run, they are all 90 degrees the wrong rotation, but I have it dialed in now. 🤣 Next step it to design my own starter pcb and see if we can reflow solder. Ps LOOK HOW SMALL THESE COMPONENTS ARE!! Get me some glasses . 🤓 @OpuloInc

From choosing the right printer to optimizing filament and settings, we share our journey and lessons learned in building an efficient 3D printing farm. Whether you're running a single 3D printer or managing a fleet, this episode is packed with advice to save you frustration.

This is like Christmas. 🎄 My opulo pnp v4 is here. ( this tool is a big step for me as a hardware builder, it places components on pcbs ) Thanks @OpuloInc

Have you heard about the Maslow 4.1? In our latest podcast episode, we sit down with Bar Smith to discuss the journey of creating open-source hardware and running successful Kickstarter Campaigns. Tune in to get inspired! #OpenSourceHardware #CNC #Podcast

One (of three) PCBs I ordered from @JLCPCB. Man this color is really nice, I was expecting a brighter yellow but this is a really nice muted yellow that is a bit more orange. Now to get this assembled on my @OpuloInc Lumen v4 once I sort out putting 50 parts in feeders.

The secret's out! My new job is to plot and scheme with @stephen_hawes_ and @Lucianchapar at @OpuloInc! 🎉🎉

Writing documentation is like a Greek tragedy, where you are both the best and worst person to write your own docs. In this episode, Stephen and Lucian dive deep into the art of creating effective documentation for open hardware products. Link in our bio!

Well, I just bought a Pick n Place machine 😳 Was a big investment, but this is the next step for me as a hardware maker. I did not have designing and building custom pcbs' in my basement on my 2024 bingo card. I have almost zero experience building pcbs, but were going to figure it out like we always do. I have a high tolerance for pain 😅 LFG 🔥 @OpuloInc
