Work update: We built a really cool microscope and took some beautiful 🧠 pics along the way.
Working with this crew has been an absolute delight. The banter, puzzles, and joyful whoops we've shared together have given the journey a "Mars mission"-level feeling of excitement.
How do you image the large and the small at the same time? We developed new 🔬 technology to image centimeter-scale specimens - including whole mouse brains 🧠 - with diffraction-limited resolution and without sectioning. #mesoscale #imaging

oof, circumstances were such that I almost fell for this! But my real PI would've totally gotten the Peano-Baker Series.
Honestly kinda bummed I didnt get a reply, even something random from Wikipedia.

new video, this time playing around with air assist and nozzle designs on a diode laser cutter: youtu.be/cwoBI7O9Noo
Since it's engineering week, how about some prototyping design patterns? Let's talk about fabricating the "center post" and "foot" of this five bar linkage robot leg. Here, the center post constrains the angle of the foot as the leg travels around its workspace.
The foot attaches to the carbon fiber "leg" with a shoulder screw and a sandwich of thrust bearings. Shoulder screws are great for pivot points. The bushings and thrust bearings (blue, bookended by 2 washers) together form a low friction, high-force joint for the pivoting foot.
I'm simply stoked to say that Jubilee, my open-source tool-changing machine and first grad school labor of love, is now a kit via Filastruder!

Jubilee was built @Machine_Agency and refined over ~3 years. Kit-izing Jubilee has been a collab between the folks at @Filastruder, @LukesLaboratory ,@MandalaRose4, and @LDOMOTORSJASON, not to mention the plethora of feedback from people chronicling their experiences on Discord.
Oh hey there!
Just spicing up your Friday morning with some dual-color 3D prints, freshly minted on Jubilee.
Im shell shocked. Sanjay would bring that infectious enthusiasm to all sorts of 3D printing projects, not just his own. Spend 5 minutes with him and you'd be excited about projects and printing for the next year. I am so sad to see him go.
It is with the heaviest of hearts that we announce the death of one of our founding directors, Sanjay Mortimer, who passed away on Saturday 27th November - e3d-online.com/blogs/news/sa…
