hello this good video will be good in round shape and combined with cheap bowling ball for vise pieces for beginners like me. can i order?

5 axis 3d printer would be cool, the slicer to make good use of the functionality would be the hard part, might be able to use the in built fusion 360 5axis milling functioning

@@ActionBOX It might work with an assembly of parts that can be used with other projects. The cornmeal has to be extruded at speed through a die. The friction of the fast turning extruder will cause the moist cornmeal to steam. With the pressure forced through the die the cornmeal will puff. Check this for concept. kzread.info/dash/bejne/ZYB-1tFqdJPPgNY.html

I have sourced most parts (except for the extruder/hotend - following closely upcoming releases), milled the extrusions square, assembled the frame, set up klipper/fluidd, tested some accelerations and trinamic settings. Milling the plates will happen after summer vacations. Hopefully it will be moving in September, melting filament in October.

@@ActionBOX I will, I am working with a department that makes prosthetics and clamping and holding is always a issue. The fractal vise might work for them. Just on a larger scale…but will show share this video with them. Thanks!

How accurate do the tolerances of the metal parts need to be, for a fractal design like this to work reliably in the real world when made of metal? (for real work holding as in a milling machine etc) Would you not have issues with chips getting in and gumming up the works (to use the technical terminology)?

That’s a great question. The answer is I don’t know. I never had real ones made of metal, and I never tried to optimize the design for industrial use. Hope you enjoyed the video regardless. Cheers
