I am on the lookout for a new large 3D printer, but I am not rushing into it. Until I have decided upon a new one, my custom Ender 3 Pro is what I got. It is actually performing pretty well, here I am printing clear PETG, and it lays down the filament just perfectly! 🤩

A new and exciting episode on my cafe racer / scrambler build is soon to come. I just had to paint the rear subframe to get a decent thumbnail for the YouTube video, as the grey primer on it was not very picturesque 😁 One minute with a spray paint did the trick 🤩

The irony is real. In the attempt of creating a system to avoid cable spaghetti, I made a cable spaghetti system 😏

I will be impressed if you can guess what this thing in the middle of the picture is going to be. Unless you have checked on the Ctrl MC Discord Server where I mentioned it.

The blue thingy is plastic protection over a 2 mm aluminum sheet, the black feet and the grey middle part is 3D printed.

Can you guess what it is going to be? I am waiting for some stuff to be installed onto the metal part, I can't tell what that is - it will make rhe guessing game too easy 😁

Okay the images below in the poll is too tiny to really see what is going on. Here are bigger pictures. Find your favourite muffler color and vote on this post:

I need your advice. I have decided to buy a new exhaust from Fuelexhausts in UK for my Cagiva Elefant. The one I have is just too noisy, and it does not really fit to the bike - it looks too modern.

This is the one I am looking at: www.fuelexhausts.com/exhausts/slash-slip-on-350-40…

I will select the round version, 350mm (Mini). It should fit very well. It has the exact same diameter (110mm) as the original, but is a bit shorter.

Then comes the question: Should I buy the option "Brushed Stainless" (that looks mostly like the original one that was shiny chrome) or should I buy "Ceramic Black".

I am leaning towards ceramic black, and will mostly buy that one regardless of the poll 😝😁 Unless you all think stainless looks best or have some very good arguments that will change my mind 🤔

3D printed a frame for holding the Ctrl MC latest PCB prototype modules, the one at the bottom right hand side is the latest one from NextPCB: 8 channel solid state relay (SPOC switches from Infineon). Preparing the next video for testing thermals = how much current can it take before it blows up. 😬😬😬

Find four faults 😝 I had to buy 2 pcs M6x50mm zink plated round inner-head-hex bolts (unbraco) - but found these at 70% discount at thansen hardware store - so I bought a whole bunch of them. Pre-ordered and packaged in a bag. Now that I am home and looked into the package I can see I got 4 wrong types - well, at least it was just 80% correct, but I got none of the ones I needed 😓 It's two hours drive to return them

Stepping up the game with a RIGOL DHO804 oscilloscope 😁

Preparing some serious testing to see what my boards can cope with. Gotta give RIGOL a shout out as they wanted to support the Ctrl MC project and gave me a pretty decent discount 🙏

I just gotta learn how to use it 😝 I suspect it's a tiny bit more advanced than using a multimeter. This will be fun!

Let me know if you want to see a video about it!
