3D Printing

January 21st, 2010 by sT*rchi1Ð

A rapid prototyping technique that involves “printing” three-dimensional objects with plaster or resin & Stuff. Many typo materials used in printing, most common technos like SLS, FDM, SL, Lamination systems, EB, 3DP, 3D Ceramic Printing etc are nowadays used @ commercial level. Every techno relies on specific material as per industrial demand while it helps a lot for an abstract model of specified object or stuff like that..

Resolution: Given in layer thickness and X-Y resolution in dpi. Typical layer thickness is around 100 micrometres (0.1 mm), while X-Y resolution is comparable to that of laser printers. The particles (3D dots) are around 50 to 100 micrometres (0.05-0.1 mm) in diameter. (wiki)

Buying a Hi-End balanced Gaming PC

December 16th, 2009 by B@D

Buying a performing, balanced but budget Gaming PC has always been a challenge. No matter its 2001 (wink) or 2009. Decent performing (40+fps) yet not mighty expensive hardware does comes with alot of research and a base price point. So, we did both and stepped out of home with time spent in research and Rs. 50,000 in our pocket for CH|LL’s new desktop system.

Here is some eye-candy I’ve shot for the creative readers. Review & benchmarks will be posted very soon.

Fixing Ignition Timing of my Sunny 120Y (DIY)

November 27th, 2009 by Kryptic

I’ve got this Nissan Sunny 120y 1974 (also knows as Datsun 120y).  Few months back we converted it from Conventional Point Ignition System to Electronic Ignition System.  We bought Electronic Distributor of another sunny for 1500 Rs from Bilal Gunj, but it cant be fitted with A12 engine, so all system from new distributor needed to be swapped in old one and was nicely done by Lathe Machine Operator.  Mechanic fitted it and said everything was fine.

But the problem was, car had poor acceleration, low fuel average and difficulty in starting.  We went to mechanic again and said everything is fine with ignition timing but Engine needed to be overhauled.  we knew that engine was fine and problem was with ignition timing and mechanic is illiterate and he know nothing about technical details. So we came back did some research on Internet and decided to fix it ourself.

We diagnosed that distributor was set to full advanced and yet timings were retarded.  In order to fix it distributor needed to be taken out, adjust the position of crank pulley and timing plate. Install distributor again.

Results:

After fixing ignition timing Car starts on First Self even in winter when engine is cold.  Acceleration is much better

P.S. Do not try this at Home :P

LxGamerz going Wi-Fi & More // Some Money Well Spent

November 2nd, 2008 by B@D

Atlast we are now Wireless.
Cable Free Network with around half the performance of Cables and Double The Security.
Faizan was thinking about Wi-Fi(ing) for quite a long time.
What Wi-Fi brings us is a One Time setup with a couple of Θ grade settings.
Our next plan is to get Wi-Fi work over a 2 Street Distance. For that may be we will use Antennas and do this stuff without knocking on Neighbor Doors ( That’s What We Hate about Cables).
