This page is a list of the projects I'm planning to undertake in the future. This is the second and third horizon in my planning[^horizons]. See my [[now]] page for the first horizon. # Next - I assembled my [[Shredii 6]] to start grinding ABS spools for [[Plastic Recycling]]. The machine is complete and functioning. In order to make good use of it, I'm going to build a mounting plate for my workbench. - [[Printer Rack Platform]] – I'm converting all of my 3D printer shelving to a standard size. # Future The list is in no particular order. Some of the ideas are well-defined. Some of the ideas are just that: ideas. - Building more Vorons – Before the tariffs kicked in, I bought several Formbot kits which I plan to build over the course of this year. I have four more kits in stock to build for the future. - 2x Micron+ - 2x v2.4r2 - I am also going to buy at least one more Micron+ and v2.4. I want to have N+1 redundancy in place even when I am upgrading a printer. - Modular Workbench – I will build several workbenches from 4040 aluminum extrusions and MDF. - Table Saw outfeed table. - Assembly workbench - 3D printing workbench - Styrene detection – I print ASA indoors. I ventilate well enough, but I want to back up that statement with data. I have an air quality meter that detects VOCs. Unfortunately, using isopropyl alcohol also sets it off. I need a more discrete measure of Styrene. - [[Plastic Recycling]] - PLA/PETG – For the waste prints and supports I discard, I'm going to recycle them back into filament - Filament Extrusion – I'm going to make filament with a [C1 Filament Extruder](https://www.3dpany.com/products_details/12.html) from 3DPANY. - Storage - I'm converting all my general storage to [Euro Containers](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euro_container). I'm buying containers from Hudson Exchange. - [400mmx300mm nominal](https://www.hudsonex.com/products/hudson-exchange-12-x-15-x-7-5-straight-wall-handled-storage-container-tote-gray-brown) - [600mmx400mm nominal collapsble](https://www.hudsonex.com/products/hudson-exchange-24-x-16-x-11-15-2-gallon-collapsible-straight-wall-handled-storage-container-tote-gray) - I'm almost done converting all my woodworking tool storage to Tanos Systainers. I'm building some roller boards with wheels to make rearranging my ship easier. - [Bondtech INDX](https://www.bondtech.se/indx-by-bondtech/) - Convert one or more Vorons to IDEX using the Bondtech product - Current release date has slipped to next year - Project Carts - At this time, I am continually updating my [[Project Carts#Next version|project carts]] with some new features - [Primitive Infinite Spool System](https://github.com/Esoterical/PrinterMods/tree/main/Primitive%20Infinite%20Spool%20System) - I currently have two Infinity Flow S1s. They have been nothing but trouble and don't work for me. I'm thinking about building an open alternative. [^horizons]: I subscribe to a three horizon view of planning. I only make three buckets of things. First, what I'm doing right now. Second, what I know I need to do next. Third, what I think I'll be doing after that. ![[Discussions]]
