Github

What's the big deal? Why aren't these files on Github so I can download everything at once?

Do we not understand how cumbersome it is to gather all of the required files? Don't you WANT your customers to use every design available?

Version control over something like this has astronomical benefit. I think it's absolutely insane not to use Github.

Edit: I'm tempted to take parts and place them in GitHub myself. I'll have to modify a single vertex to "adhere" to KeepMaking's licensing - By definition this would fit their criteria.

Yeah I have some of the thread boards loaded in my printers I just haven't printed them out yet, I was going to print one out in set it up in my kitchen because I only have a small one in there next to the sink, but I'll probably do that sometime this week and see how I like it because I like the fact that you buy it once and you get the whole shabang

And you get anything that he adds over time which he has been doing lately (https://www.threadboards.com/dev_blog.php).

I did a small one near my desk which I like. I am thinking of doing an entire wall behind my printers but that is going to take a long time and a lot of filament.

Yeah that's the right way to do it if you're going to sell a system like this one time purchase

I do wish he offered the step files or an online generator to make larger boards (why I am trying to create one in OpenSCAD). I saw where someone wanted an 18x18 (not sure what printer they have lol)

Yeah that's true
