Re: ElasticStage = Lasers (By Their Own Claims)

Re: CVD diamond tylus Needle stylus for Cutting Aliexpress

I just wanted to know if this is good? Really? It seems very simple and obvious to me that just by looking at the product photos, you can clearly see multiple red flags. The stones are not aligned, the mounts appear poorly made, and the angles are off...etc etc So how can you expect a proper finish...

That’s perfectly fine. The market is open and everyone is free to buy whatever they want. What’s less acceptable is tu...

Re: The First STEREO CUTTER HEAD S001 BLUETOOTH

We came to the conclusion that each additional kHz is no longer an additional $50 but $500. Why? The degree of difficulty of making it, i.e. the accuracy and materials used. So: so that it is 9 kHz =1000$ 11kHz=2000$ 13kHz-3000$ 15kHz=4000$ 17kHz=5000$ [limit max ] :) Hard to imagine a more fitting...

It’s incredible how far-reaching the consequences of Chernobyl were. Decades later, in some corners, even far from the epicenter, we’re still seeing some strange side effects.

We just don’t have the time to build up a larger community and deal with another 100+ customers. so we are focusing on the clients we already have.

Re: Elasticstage - short run record production

Hi all, longtime not posting here... but that thread is quiet interesting. When I saw this project... I already knew about it because I was involved in the same project a few years ago.
