Proposal Type:
Micro
Proposer:
Joe Christian
Description:
I’ve put together a couple of bits that need purchasing for the 3D printers.
10m 4-gang extension lead. The printers are currently being powered by about 5 2m extensions chained together. I’d like to reduce this as it’s not very safe.
Ebay - £16.99 - Link
Wipeboards
These will be fixed to the front of the printer cabinets. It will have 2 prompts written on it:
Name
Contact
This means if someone puts a print going and it fails, someone can turn it off and let them know it failed.
Ebay - £6 - link
Dry wipe markers
Ebay - £4 - link
5m green string
To fix the dry wipe marker to the 3d printer cabinet so it doesn’t go missing
Ebay - £1.69 - Link
SD Card:
Amazon - £6 - Link
Wireless Pi, so getting a Pi is almost impossible these days, so I would recommend a wireless wifi dongle instead:
PiHut - £6 - Link
Budget:
£ 40.68
Funding type:
Fully funded by Hackspace

Edit: removed IPA, added SD card and Pi
can we not get IPA cheaper from a b2b supplier ?
Giving my standard member +1. Also iirc the washing station for the currently out of use resin printer is filled with IPA which we could presumably use until the new batch arrives?
I’m not sure tbh, if you want to propose a link though then i’m happy to change the links over.
We haven’t completely run out, i’m just being preemptive, and wasn’t at the £50 micro proposal limit.
We will also need a wireless pi or to run an ethernet cable to the existing pi for Jeff, as in its original location it had a networking cable plugged in.
Also need a microsd card as it burned out for the same pi.
Have you got a link to either of these things? I’m not familiar with the requirements for either. We have plenty of ethernet cable in the space though depending on where it needs running to?
Yup.
