Today was the day where I got my hands on to the Ninja Flex that we bought a few weeks ago. As soon as I got it I put it on the Ultimaker and printed the test file Matthew had made for me a little while ago. The only print settings I had to change...Read More
While talking to Mr. Crane, he asked how we are going to do the belt on the wheels. I said we could buy a belt and cut it to size and connect the ends – but this is the S.A.R.T, and that would be too easy. While buying more ABS for the Ultimaker, I thought...Read More
A few days ago Mr. Elias and I were having a chat about powering the NUC. He said that we should start looking at how much usable time we can get out of it while running on battery, so I went to JayCar and got two 2.5mm DC power plugs to connect to our voltage dropper....Read More
After printing some wheels in PLA I thought we could speed this up if I got the Ultimaker and started printing them on that as well. As I’m using the Ultimaker I’m using ABS to print the wheels, not only is it better quality it is also a stronger plastic so with that in mind we are...Read More

After windows server 2012 didn’t know what an ethernet adapter was, I downloaded windows server 2016 (5GB) that only took 3 hours due to Australia’s internet speed. Once downloaded I went to install it on the BreezeLite, the BreezeLite has an interesting issue where the only USB that will show up is ones formatted in FAT32...Read More
