You already know that I am fond of Onshape… The fact that an ecosystem helping makers is growing rapidly around it is making me think more and more that’s the way of the future.
The developer of Kiri:moto and I talked about where the software is going in the future. He plans on redoing the overlay so that it’s a little more user friendly and easy to use. I still haven’t got to use his slicer for an actual print yet - something always seems to screw up.
Cool to know. Would have liked to be here! I agree his interface isn’t the most intuitive thing in the world, yet he did a really pretty good job (both maybe being the results of trying to address his own frustration in not having any tool that does simplify the “convoluted” chain as he says). I’m really curious to see how he will implement this setup.
I don’t know what kind of algorithm was used for the slicing part, but if he has full control over it, it could be interesting to try to get some of the things others slicers don’t do yet (after having polished some rough edges first I guess).
I need is the future. Have I see more onshape last few week. Something that bothered me is the lack of touch recognition on a surface pro. We need more apps in the cloud for the ecosystem to be completed. With onshape, chilli, laserweb, kiri:moto we are indeed in the correct path
