i'm obsessed with these MIT Maker Portfolios this is the best one i've ever seen. this is real engineering. how does he only have 3 followers? Ethan built: 01. omni-directional wheels / swerve modules 02. a mechanical integrator that does calculus with moving parts 03. a polar plotter that can draw all sorts of wild patterns 04. a modded Ender 3 that he turned into a CoreXY claw machine 05. a cycloidal gearbox 06. a 5-axis 3D printer and slicer inspired by Joshua Bird's 4-axis design now he's working on a compact, battery-powered, ultra-portable expanding 3D printer a body of work like this usually takes a full team years Ethan did it before college this guy is an absolute machine if anyone deserves more support, it’s him

I built this portable 3d printer. it folds flat, and a scissor lift lets it expand to print big objects. It's CoreXY, uses fishing line for the motion system, has a direct drive extruder, and the option of storing an 8-hour print time battery or an entire filament spool inside

Looking to source an OpenArm (Enactic's open-source arm) for some mobile manipulation experiments. I'm in the SF Bay Area and hoping to borrow one for ~1 month (local pickup preferred, open to shipping). Happy to pay a rental fee or swap/loan other robotics equipment in exchange — I've got a Unitree Go2, a Booster Robotics K1 humanoid, and an AgileX Piper arm available. If anyone has one sitting idle, or knows a reliable source/channel, introductions are very welcome 📷 Please DM me!

I feel like I can’t enjoy things as much as I used to. Every time I play games I have a lot of fun but then feel guilty, like I’m just wasting time.

I built a browser based CAD program in a little over 2 weeks. Using a combination fo React, three.js, CadQuery and Reportlab, I now have a beta version of a tool I've always dreamed of building . Features: design, add weldments and export .step files of your work. Watch your real time quote build as you add material and weldments. Get an official quote and generate a shop drawing with BOM anytime you want. This system will surely require a lot of updates as we use it and find issues, but I'm super excited to show it to the world and get some real life feedback. There is such an incredible talent pool on this site. If any of your good people would be willing to spare a moment to play with this tool I built and provide some feedback, I'd really appreciate it! Build on, folks! steadysteel.org/designer @rossiadam @JulianFried @KennethCassel @zanehengsperger @CalebChamberla6 @jimbelosic @will_alverson @willreil

@therealyawpower I think just showing up consistently does the trick. You don't even have to win. The improvement comes and confidence builds up. No way around it. Just show up. Bear the most responsibility you can. Things tend to work out.

Where does self confidence come from? Sometimes it's detachment from reality, but in most cases, I believe it is the integration of wins over time. And maybe it's a little bit of both...

What will Musk’s legacy be? That he revolutionized several industries, or that he inspired a younger generation to do the same?

I feel like, around the age of twelve or thirteen, I veered off The Path and into a dark valley that I had no choice but to cross And I'm just now coming up the other side, and starting to remember what the sun looks like
