This is pretty cool. I recently purchased some used rims for my car and they have some pretty bad road rash (scratches). I've been playing with TinkerCAD for a bit trying to create a sanding block that would conform to the rim and the bead but it's been harder than expected. Printytron knocked something out in 3 requests and I think it will work pretty well. So, thanks for this project.
If these models can be converted to a parameterized FreeCAD model (or something similar) then it would be cool to be able to download them and change them dynamically. Say, I want to sand down my 22" rims. I wouldn't have to rerun Printytron, I could just change the parameter in the FreeCAD model. Of course, this could be a paid option.
I love this story so much! Exactly why I built this! I'm going to have to go look at your traces to see your workflow and how you prompted to get what you needed.
Yeah, I'm currently working on how to get other export file types. I want to avoid charging for the service directly and try monetize through printing services or something if I have to monetize. But you're right, alternative export options might be a good premium feature of I had to go that route.
Wow, that’s a great idea! I loved keybase back in the day and really thought it solved a real world problem in a unique and interesting way. Then Zoom bought it (for some reason) and left it to rot.
You might already know and used "for some reason" as sarcasm. For those that do not: Zoom did the usual aqui-hire. They needed to show their enterprise customers they were taking e2e encryption seriously, so they bought out the guys who did exactly that kind of encryption with Keybase.
A shame really, because Keybase was kind of unique in the way the facilitated social proof of identity tied to cryptographic keys. A shame though that they never found a really sustainable business model. When they turned to crypto currency towards the end of their independent run I knew it probably wouldn't last.
the UX was so terrible that it was inevitable it won't stick. It was clunky and alien on every productivity platform, I attempted to work in a team leveraging it, and it was painful on windows and macos alike.
I just deleted it as I noticed it was responsible of about 30% of active cpu (and battery drain) usage on my mac, while being logged out due to inactivity. Honestly: I never particularly liked it, and I could not feel the concept especially tempting, just went with the team.
