    I was wondering how drilling the axle hole would go with jobber bits. Seems you managed, but it reminded me of some long twist bits I've got which come in handy for things like that.

      I was wondering if they were going to be long enough.

    wow that thing was definitely looked like a hassle to rebuild. also does your cat have a problem with cameras?

      I didn't know the battery door had wheels when I bought it, nor did I know it had a dish on its head.

    Hi, i have a question about those little like nodule things you were melting with your iron. What are those specifically, I have never seen anything like them before.

      It's sticky wax. It comes different ways, mostly rods, this stuff is just pellets. It's new to me and I like it.

    I wondered why not just paint the 3d printed dish?

    • @RandiRain

      That resin I use is brittle, but it's also water based and easier to clean up.

      Strength. 3d printed parts can still snap pretty easily along the layer lines. Plus of course, now she has the mould she can make more if she needs to.

    Have you ever thought about using Lego bricks to create trays? they would be reusable and you would waste less material.

    • @RandiRain
      @RandiRain  Před 3 měsíci +1

      I'm assuming you mean for mold making... Silicone is too expensive. I use as little as possible. You waste too much using legos not being able to get it the exact size you need.
