A dog is always part of the family and it is always hard to go thru this...

Sticker time! As usual, I wanted a 9 rather than a 2. Other elements are basically from the kit stickers, but the 9 was designed using the plotter and 2 different vinyls... https://i.imgur.com/uWE5Mri.jpeg https://i.imgur.com/pwgdZcA.jpeg https://i.imgur.com/7xnStWs.jpeg https://i.imgur.com/uICNvPN....

The Montluçonnaise is taking place in one week from now. It's time for the last bit of preparation. The event is on 4 days, and on the road track, there is light in the evening which allows for night running time... Which means that to have it realistic, we need lights on the car... That was the pla...

Aïzia, young Australian Sheperd just joined the family on Tuesday... Adaptation with Nooshka goes well, as well with the 2 cats of the house...

Finally pulled the trigger on the P1S with AMS2 Pro. I find the AMS2 Pro to be a pain in the ass. I get a "failed to retract" or "failed to load filament" error almost every single print. Otherwise I find the prints to be of good quality and fast! May I suggest to check the spri...

A bit later... I finally took the time to do the paintjob and almost finish this car... https://i.imgur.com/iDpmsGu.jpeg The lexan wing is quite exposed, and I'm just realist on my capacities as a driver : it won't last long. I decided to do something about that with a TPU wing. https://i.imgur.com/...

Another non rc related use of my printers. TPU is an amazing material https://i.imgur.com/w39OSdk.jpeg https://i.imgur.com/QnjRgrA.jpeg https://makerworld.com/en/models/1342470-heavy-duty-blade-for-ryobi-loan-trimmer I'm impressed how long the printed TPU blades worked :they last longer than the ori...

Some very cool builds that are stalled.

More parts, more chances to have one missing, more "chances" to have an unfinished project, maybe?

An interview of Dr Tao, CEO of Bambu Lab by CNC Kitchen.

It's that time of the year where my printers are used for something else than RC car parts... It's prints that I do for my wife and the poney club hosting my wife's poneys https://i.imgur.com/B7vCGhI.jpeg Each plate is 100 tick remover, and I printed already a few of them... IsanMate ASA prints pere...

After the shocks, time to deal with the internals... I started by the "simple things" :) https://i.imgur.com/jbnDAne.jpg Then I took care of the differential bevel gears... https://i.imgur.com/sdpgKBq.jpg Next the output/inputs bevel gears... And I need to find the motor pinions, I should...

It's red... but not a Ferrari... It's a Leader, as there is no Vaillante on a track without a Leader :-) https://i.imgur.com/IX82gaD.jpeg https://i.imgur.com/ayCnCr5.jpeg https://i.imgur.com/QJX4B2R.jpeg https://i.imgur.com/DCpEJDG.jpeg https://i.imgur.com/G0l89O8.jpeg I'll make the files available ...

I need to finish the 312 bodyshell, and the weather was perfect for a paintjob...


Yes, it is red... It's not going to be a Ferrari, though... The Yellow on the driver jacket is a a key indication, the other car another one

The Carvera Air is now on a boat, from what I can see in the tracking of my order (it's not moving yet, though). It will take time before it gets to its new home. In the meantime, I'm getting prepared. I ordered a FoxAlien Vice to complement the Carvera and allow for easy positionning. This will req...
