3dp kriss vector cycles! Got 10 rounds through it before a stove pipe, I'm very happy with the progress and I've started work on revision 2. #3d2a #fosscad

@RikisaurusVT @animefest @ironmouse Congrats that's an amazing milestone

The butterfly effect is wild. Sixteen years ago I went to my first @animefest, two years ago I started VTubing and today I helped test a setup for @ironmouse M&G 🧡⭐ Suuuper excited for the weekend :3

On May 7th, Governor Kathy Hochul announced that New York's Fiscal Year 2027 budget will become the first law in the United States to mandate surveillance software inside every 3D printer sold within the state. It will make it a Class E felony to possess or share a 3D-printable file capable of producing a firearm component. Every printer sold in New York must ship with print-blocking algorithms that scan each job in real time and refuse to execute anything the algorithm flags. The sales pitch is "ghost guns." The mechanism is a permission gate inside a machine you paid for. Pilot tests of the proposed algorithm by an open-firmware team triggered the block on 17% of non-weapon prints. Brackets that resemble triggers. Cylinders that resemble barrels. A model train coupling. A bottle opener. The algorithm cannot tell. It will refuse the print and log the attempt to whatever server the manufacturer is required to maintain. The same arithmetic the printing-press licensors used in 1660. The same arithmetic the Stationers' Company used to brand a printer's son for distributing tracts the Crown had not approved. The same arithmetic the early DRM crowd used to make a DVD ripper a federal criminal in 1998. A tool you bought, in a room you own, with electricity you paid for, becomes a deputy of the state at the moment of purchase and remains one for the lifetime of the device. Anything that takes a digital design file and outputs a physical object is now within the reach of a state that has declared it owns the question of which physical objects you are permitted to bring into existence inside your own house. The fence has spent forty years moving inward. Around the song first. Around the page. Around the cipher. Around the camera roll. Now, finally, around the workbench. The state has run out of digital territory to enclose and has started enclosing the atoms. The maker who prints a bracket for a broken washing machine tonight commits the same act, technically, that the law is written to stop. The algorithm will not know the difference. It is not designed to know the difference. It is designed to fail closed, to refuse first and let the human appeal upward through whatever bureaucratic channel the manufacturer designs, if any, on whatever timeline the manufacturer chooses, with whatever paper trail attaches to the request. Permission to print, denied. Submit a ticket. Wait. Unfortunately for New York, and fortunately for us, the firmware on every consumer 3D printer is open or near-open. All of them forkable, all of them flashable, all of them already installed on millions of machines outside the reach of any future New York compliance certificate. The CAD files at issue are mathematical descriptions of geometry that will be mirrored on a thousand drives in a thousand jurisdictions before the ink on the bill is dry. The state cannot bind geometry. It can only bind the people who agree to be bound. Forty years from now nobody will remember the ghost gun argument. They will remember the year a state government decided that the physical output of a private machine was the state's business at the point of manufacture.

3dp kriss vector is so close to cycling got it to feed and eject a few times but need to change the upper geometry. The stove pipe is pretty infamous on the actual kriss vector, pretty amusing that mine has similar issues

@RikisaurusVT Give Prey 2017 a try

Earlier this year I have conquered my fears and beat Alien: Isolation for the first time ever. And it has awoken something in me. I'd like to give Dead Space a try as well. Do you guys have any recommendations for more similar games? Does not need to be a scary one!

Got to test the 3dp vector this weekend, doesn't cycle yet, just have to adjust the slider weight/geometry

Finished bolt and slider for the 3dp kriss vector

Got the finished bolt for the 3dp kriss vector, gonna assemble the final design this weekend and test next Saturday

Put together the new slider for the 3dp kriss vector, still waiting for the bolt to be finished but its supposed to be finished tomorrow.

It has been two weeks since I opened the fundraiser to support our legal battle with Rare Breed Triggers, support from the community has been incredible, almost three thousand donations to date! We hit 96% of the original funding goal today. Thank you guys! Really, incredible.

Redid the slider for the 3dp kv, double checked my hand calcs and I am fairly certain this will hold up well. Also increased the guide rod diameter from 5mm-8mm

Finished up the glock 19, I probably won't get the 3dp vector parts till first week of March so I gotta find another project

@d0tslash @KrissUSA Hey thats my project lmao

A 3d printed @KrissUSA Vector is "coming soon" you say? reddit.com/r/3D2A/comment…

Printing a glock in pa612-cf

The almost finished 3dp kriss vector and all of the prototypes #3d2a #fosscad

The bolt for the vector won't arrive for another few weeks so I need to find another project, I was thinking a flywheel delayed pcc

Added threaded stand-offs to the slider, should keep it in place better than the heated inserts

Added in a base plate for the slider and a metal trigger bar for the fcg. Hopefully the new trigger bar will feel less mushy.

ROUND 2! For every repost and quote this post gets in the next 24 hours, I will donate $1 to the @HoffmanTactical legal defense fund, up to $1000. Here is the link to HELP FIGHT RARE BREED, please share and donate! givesendgo.com/hoffmantactica…

Yesterday the Court granted a Preliminary Injunction against Hoffman Tactical. Unfortunately this means we will be unable to fund this suit ourselves by selling my Super Safety. A Give Send Go has been created as a result to support our vast and expanding legal expenditures: givesendgo.com/hoffmantactical Your aid is appreciated and will assist in paying for the attorneys, law firms, experts, and other expenses required in a case of this magnitude.
