We should start a club.
RE: Improving Strength of PrusaSlicer
- I have considered those options and others like shopify. They all have their different nuances. Not sure what you mean by Printables providing some protection from Creative Commons.
- Just going to start out going boat to boat and fishing shop to shop. I presented a prototype to shops two years ago and got some encouraging feedback.
- Yea, ideally I would like to do trade shows but they are expensive.
- I seem to keep getting suggestions to give them away.
- Ya charter boats, if they don't think it's stupid. It will be advertised as good for kids, handicap and weaker people. But I'm a big guy and I feel a need for it, so.To be perfectly honest I'm too old to start a business and I do not want alllllllllll the headaches. I've contacted all the fishing industry manufacturers a couple years ago but none were interested. If I can show some sales and interest in the Grippy Ippy maybe one will reconsider. Like at a trade show as you point out. Shark Tank for example do not want start up businesses, they want already profitable businesses. Hell maybe they will just knock it off patent or not. But if someone does that it means the Grippy Ippy is successful. I've invented many things over the years but was never able to take them to the next levels. Three years ago I got enough money to get a printer and some other things fell in line since then that it seems like Devine interventions that I am guided to persist with Grippy Ippy.
Does this video play for you? It has copyright music in it so it might be muted for you.
I think you need a bigger boat. (Jaws music)
Good Luck with the Grippy Ippy!!

With the Prusa slicer, have you run an extrusion calibration? I have found that I had to up the extrusion factor to get my wall thicknesses correct when testing the calibration. I found this for all filaments I have tried. In all cases, it was about 8% low and have a high resolution micrometer to measure the thickness.

I also feel that one should increase the extrusion factor to get the correct wall thickness for all the fibers
