  • I’ve been wanting to build a Voron for ages, I’ve modified an i3 clone from anycubic to such an extent it’s not reflective of it’s original quality at all. But I find the cost and technical challenge a little too high. Recently Sovol brought out an inspired by and using open source basis copy of the Voron 2.4. Sovol SV08. It’s looks quite reasonably priced, but it’s still a big chunk of what I would have spent on the Voron budget, and only needs reassembly out of the box not a full build. I’m just not hearing enough of how they run to be inspired yet. SV08



  • I mean, written a little anti-establishment, but you’re completely right, the ‘producer’ slip issued to bring your documents in has been standard stuff for decades and all of the digital info is available to them as soon as they stop you, so it’s literally just proving your face matches the documents to have it with you. If they just had your mug pop up on the screen in their car, who would need to produce anything?

    However, it has not yet passed UK road safety tests.

    GMP said the car that was seized had been referred to Operation Wolverine, which was established in 2007 to target drivers without insurance.

    The owner will have to prove ownership and correct insurance prior to release.

    So even if insurance was proven, not sure how for an illegal vehicle, it could be released, but it couldn’t be driven, so knowing the way our authorities work; get this vehicle collected, on a transporter of some kind and get it out of our compound by xx date or we’ll crush it.

    Had the somewhat traditional Xmas at home as it seems now, at home with the kids on Xmas day, over to the in-laws for Boxing Day to have too many people in one place, a crocker-pot of germs and drinking to make sure resistance is low, the smallest members of the family cross crossing partisan lines to make sure there’s a (un)fair chance of distribution. So by the 27th, we’ve all been on deaths door, and the level of ick hasn’t abated yet, so another year that new year’s eve/day plans are a washout - chicken soup anyone? This is the most ill I have been since the big COVID xmas of ‘20, where we all did the same thing but on xmas day and were ill until February. This was the year that we’d dodged it for a whole year and then fell 3 months before vaccinations were available. I can’t tell you how disappointed I am we did it then, and that we’ve done it again now.
