BTW if anyone is interested in making a 3D Printed Yihi mod this GALA Mod Front by Marici on Shapeways is an amazing print! Very well done & the price is real good to.
The people who used to run vaposphere, still have some SX350 J V2's.
You can email her & the last one I got was 55 USD reasonable shipping rates to.
You will need a button a few battery contacts 4 magnets & a 510.
So for about 100$ you can build this mod & it's a very well done print :)
Just throwing it out here FYI :)

That is very cool, what jumped out at me is 16 bar! That's 232 psi! And the needle on the gauge is pegged.... :unsure:
Yeah, just think if the safety pop-off went off in your car/lap.

pretty sure we had some people here with their own printer :?:

Berkeley couple died after 3-D printer leaked carbon monoxide
There is a lot of discussion about this in the 3D printing world and no one can come up with a plausible combination that could create carbon monoxide when 3D printing without an actual fire. Now a Laser Cutter is a whole different story because they can cause all kinds of deadly fumes including carbon monoxide and cyanide gas so perhaps it was actually a laser cutter. The actual investigation has turned up butkis for a cause but the media seized on the emerging 3D printing technology......sound familiar?

Now that makes a lot more sense. Read it & couldn't figure out how carbon monoxide could be produced merely by melting the plastic to liquid unless it was ablaze. Article said cause was undetermined.

I took a particularly in depth look at this since I 3D print. There are some not so good fumes and fine particles from fused filament (common hobby type) 3D printing that varies based on the filament material, styrene being one VOC from ABS and other styrene containing filaments which are irritants. But deadly CO isn't one anyone is aware of or can figure how it could be produced at the temperatures we can achieve and the filament materials available with a FF 3D printer. There is a smoke alarm / CO detector mere feet from my printer (by happenstance).

I was thinking it might be one of those Laser Sintering SLS powder matrix type printers that can do Stainless Steel & other metals but running with plastic with the laser wattage up too high, but I have no idea if that is even a likely scenario.
