BlogPlaying w/ 3D Printer
I picked up a Prusa Mendel 3D printer from Lolzbot.com. I picked up one of these because I couldn't wait for the Printrbot from Kickstarter that should be coming next month. Definitely a little learning curve but its been a couple weeks are starting to get the hang of everything.
The first thing I made from scratch are knobs for my stove. I had 2 missing and 1 is broken so played with OpenSCAD designing it and it worked out pretty good. I need to learn a few tricks still on printing but my workaround made it happen. I'll post up some pics of the printer and some stuff I printed soon.

The pressure system just didnt work out. Swapping to pumps. I picked all of them up last month and got them cleaned and ready to start using. I had to swap out the quick connects on one side of the valves so now they are regular barbs. I left the quick connects on the spout side since I like that tubing more. I'll post up pics when I'm finished with getting them all hooked up.
Radio Pirate is alive!
Finally its here! After a bit of work and testing Radio Pirate is working again.
Radio Pirate is an automatic calling system build with asterisk to automaticly call a radio station. A lot of times the lines are busy or your stuck on ringing for it to just drop out well here is your solution. When you submit the call you will receive a call and you will sit there waiting while we repeatedly try and get you to a live person at the radio station.
Its built to pretty much stay within asterisk and no SQL. It did limit the amount of options and ease of use but was something cool to make like that. I'm thinking of releasing all the source code in case it would help anyone with techniques for other projects.
