Had high hopes for shown radiator prototype but it leaked through tiny holes. Developed another sealing routine, improved the printing process to increase the seal and increased the flow rate of the design. . . To prevent the jacket from melting I've increased the heat transfer surface, the flow rate and there's some magic happening inside. #henryalfredo #Rotterdam #3dprinting #hotend #design https://www.instagram.com/p/Bzyk_EVIbXp/?igshid=1k1l3wrmr7ulo

One of the more practical solutions of cutting duckweed growth down is spraying them with water. https://www.instagram.com/p/BzbaWkUA7DE/?igshid=a4yn0cekrwz7

Together with @ash_sparrow_creations participating in the first round of the Startup in Residence program of The Hague to combat the invasion of Duckweed. 🐤😊 . . Here testing making bubbles with a self-built limewood airstone and unused caps collected from PUR foam cans. Comparison with a corundum airstone. #henryalfredo #duckweed https://www.instagram.com/p/BzbX0A-olFL/?igshid=87tljuy4drxb

Finally was able to test the scuba gas mask with a freshly made filter spray painting and apart from hitting the ceiling it worked perfect. Pleased. #henryalfredo #Rotterdam #gasmask #diy https://www.instagram.com/p/BzWYYk0oxch/?igshid=1sn5w2gcikoxq

Lotus flower lamp mechanical test with lamp attached. After a lot of testing whilst decreasing friction I realise the driving mechanism needs to have more torque per petal. #henryalfredo #Rotterdam #lampshade https://www.instagram.com/p/BzTc5BMAAh0/?igshid=iyrez5298qe1

For spray painting indoors bought this full vision scuba for 15 euros and made an adapter to fit the screw on gas / particle filter. The other mask is so tight that its probably a kid size and was very uncomfortable to wear for more than a few minutes. #personalsafety #filter #gasmask #Rotterdam #spraypaint https://www.instagram.com/p/BzDeL8WoGLT/?igshid=960js295ij82

Apart from the style/stigma of the lotus lamp being a light source, the stamina and it's filament and anther will also be made by fiber optics which will smoothly glow and tickle your senses. . . I'm still waiting for one part to arrive before the fiber optics can be assembled. . . #henryalfredo #Rotterdam #lotus #luminaire #lighting #design #prototype https://www.instagram.com/p/ByoRkZ7IdWF/?igshid=18qwern3ht15r

Lotus lamp prototype. Which color should I pick for the petals? #henryalfredo #design #Rotterdam #nelumbonucifera #nymphaea #dutchdesign #010 #prototype https://www.instagram.com/p/BylQj3loMqx/?igshid=lhz32u8jjqri

Lotus lamp. Next mechanical working prototype with a wider stem. Petal wise it's looking more like a Nymphaea right now but I meant to design it as a Nelumbo. . . #design #lighting #henryalfredo #Rotterdam #lumiere #lumen #light #nelumbonucifera #nymphaea https://www.instagram.com/p/BylPrMrgBld/?igshid=1nf3xwe7itri

For the lotus lamp I'm switching away from the aluminium tube pictured. For the new version I'll be using a toroidal transformer which will be powering not only the lights. #henryalfredo #Rotterdam #design #prototype #lighting #lumiere https://www.instagram.com/p/BygYLsOIlq_/?igshid=1hdhggtzww9v0

For drilling glass and gemstones i finished this mount. It's basically a drone motor with ESC and a servo tester allows me to manually control speed. I figure a PWM signal could also work but that's not a priority . . I can swap my 3d printer head with this cutting mill. It allows me to do even more cool stuff turning my 3d printer into a small CNC mill. #henryalfredo #Rotterdam #prototype #design https://www.instagram.com/p/ByfsIdpoytY/?igshid=bua4lvm8d08c

I've guinea pigged the first filter until it became saturated and it performs really well. The first outer prefilter became very dusty but the second by the naked eye seems clean, same goes for the filter after the carbon. . . I swapped out all the filters and activated carbon, tried it again but wasn't careful in packing the carbon tight. I immediately sensed something was wrong whilst using it. So I've added a bit of padding and another meshed spacer disc so it's more tightly packed. . . After these changes it worked as a new filter again. Before refilling it you can simply wash all plastic parts with cold or not too hot water or a damp cloth. . . I think I will add one more spacer ring inside the filter to add a very tight securing of the carbon compartment. Also I need to figure out a minimum and maximum fill indicator for the carbon. A bonus feature of my design is that more carbon can be loaded as there is more room. With a 19mm carbon blanket layer I estimate the filter to last 45 minutes in very extreme conditions. Will try more carbon in the next refill. #reusable #filter #filtration #design #prototype #protection #Rotterdam https://www.instagram.com/p/ByNgEseIUs9/?igshid=17b7a4jmr6fev

Time to take the filter design for a spin. Note that I've added teflon tape to the screw section to avoid paint chafing and improve the fit. . . #gp5filter #gasmask #reusable #protection #filter #filtration https://www.instagram.com/p/Bx74GkcIbil/?igshid=jo93o0osvqey

Ran out of filters whilst painting so I decided to roll my own. Designed a reusable filter for the GP-5 mask. Pop in new activated carbon and 3 regular filter masks and you're good to go for a fraction of the price of a regular filter. . . Designing this taught me more about filters and filtration in general which I can carry over to other projects. . . #makersgonnamake #3dprinting #henryalfredo #Rotterdam #filter #filtration #gasmask #particlefilter #prototype https://www.instagram.com/p/Bx7zAvzor8x/?igshid=velmr50jj8zf
