  • QIDI Q2 Finally Shipped

    From Bob La Londe@none@none.com99 to rec.crafts.metalworking on Tue Dec 9 11:03:14 2025

    I guess if you aren't an influencer and have to pay full price for your machine you also don't get it shipped quickly. Should be here Thursday.
    No idea when I will set it up. I'd like to put it in the file room
    for my old contracting company, but there are still file cabinets in there.

    With 4 filament box add on, for multi color or continuous long prints.

    As innovative as you are, the results should be interesting.

    My first commercial plans are to print crank bait bodies for swim
    testing before cutting molds. I plan to make more molds for resin cast
    crank baits, and hard plastic injection.

    My first personal plans are to print a 1911A1 frame to do a fit up test
    of the 3D model against real parts before machining some 7075 for the
    actual application. I have a couple parts kits and GSG .22
    uppers/slides, and I don't want to take a 1911 out of service to use them.

    Innovations? I feel my best creative work may be behind me, but that
    doesn't stop me from trying.

    My very first prints will probably be test models like (but not) Benchy
    models with various filaments to see what the limitations are going to be.
