TPU is reef safe.

I don't have any TPU yet but that's a good idea.

Wait... Aquarium silicone is also reef safe.

I can do a dot in the middle and one on each corner I'm thinking.

I have to reprint the vertical mount - the hanger snapped off when removing the supports.

I need to figure out a rubber that is reef safe to add to the back so it doesn't just sit there and wobble on the glass.

Pretty

Much better idea.

Already done and curing although it would have been a good reason to buy the TPU I have in my cart...

You already answered yourself with the silicone. You could have also used a 100% silicone scrubber, cut pieces off and then super glued them where you want them. This might provide a cleaner look.

TPU is reef safe.

Yes, it is, but it degrades pretty quickly under water.

Morning Tim !

Finally got around to catching the fish in the 15 so I could bring the tank to work. Sorry, not reef related content:

Sorry, not reef related (weird, huh?).

I printed some dessicant boxes for the AMS filament box and ordered some new dessicant beads.

Dessicant should be here tomorrow.

Also planning a trip to @Fish Styx favorite glue establishment to see what they have in the way of storage containers for the filament.

Seems your camera is working fine. Does your P1S have the original AMS or have they changed them to the AMS 2?

TPU is very handy to have around and really tough. I use it for plug covers, gaskets, U-Channels, etc. I really want to move into a tool changer printer at some point but I think it is still a year away for a machine that fills my wish list (the Core L with INDX comes pretty close, if mixed with the H2C it would be there).

 

[tharbin]

Yes, it is, but it degrades pretty quickly under water.

I've read that but not what I've experienced so far. The U-Channels, and plugs in my Lagoon have not degraded at all and they been underwater for over two years so far. I also have a bunch of RJ-45 covers I printed outdoors on a roof in Arizona and they're still fine after about eighteen months.

Not sure. I think it's the AMS 2.

 

[tbrown]

After further research, the picture of the AMS 2 looks more similar to what I have but I believe, based on the price/features I received I likely have the original AMS.

 

[tbrown]

@tharbin it's just the AMS.

Also, redesigned and reprinting the vertical mount:

Boy, I must have been low on caffeine when I wrote this. Let me clarify, before Chris fixes it.

'covers I printed [and installed] outdoors on a roof in Arizona and they're still fine after about eighteen months.'

Those cameras sure are nice compared to the A1's camera.

Two away from 4,000 after this post.

One down, one to go.
