That is actually exactly how its been designed! I need to prototype if the 2 bearings work well or i go to a single larger bearing. I guess i will work it out when i make the first metal prototype. Ben

Hey all! Prototyping has begun for the XL model. I'm hoping to make a Aluminium prototype this weekend.

Hello, Your order will be shipped this weekend. Sorry, i have had a delay on my recent bulk purchse of bearings. I chucked a banner on my website to say there could be up to 12 day delay on orders going out but i understand customers don't monitor the website. The bearings arrived yesterday...

I use SKF bearings and only support them. They are excellent and don’t leak. You could swap out for a PEEK dry bearing if it is a concern. The bearing isn’t for amusement, the fidget spinner aspect wasn’t intentional. it’s to take the load of the grinding to stop aluminium flakes. Tbh: my...

I managed to get a bunch of orders out, Andddd my new AUD $150k trotec laser engraver (best in the world with awesome support apparently) has broken within a week :( Currently have lawyers involved to get my get my money back as the techs couldn’t fix it and want to send a second hand unit to...

Hey mate, Yes this is perfect. Nice clean drawing with lines connected and no double lines. Joy! The Actual designs go over the bearing hole though so they wont turn out good. But i get they are just test designs. Carry on mate :tup: Ben

Hello, I'm so sorry for the delay mate. I am working as fast as i can to clear the backlog from having my laser broken. I managed to post out over 40 orders this weekend. My packaging is not a fast process as it's just me. I engrave, assemble and package the custom orders one at a time to...

Hello mate, I just sent this one off. I checked and the issue was that your email was xxx@mail.com (missing the G in G mail). I merged your 2 profiles to the correct one so all should show up as expected now. ---- NEW LASER ENGRAVER HAS ARRIVED!!!! YAY.. Orders will start flowing out as...

Eek! Sorry mate :( I am not sure what's gone wrong here because the magnets haven't changed. It could be the post diameter on my part is out of tolerance and is tight on the bearing race. If you were down with it, you could heat the very top of the post make the magnet weaker. If you didn't...

Hey everyone, The contest is now live for the gold titanium giveaway. ------------- The 2024 plans are my goals to achieve in 2024. I am dedicating significantly more time to OMD in 2024 so development should be somewhat faster that the development of the Aroma-3. ------------- For those...

Hello, Unfortunately, the better the machine finish the more susceptible to scratches they are. I'm pretty certain that it didn't leave australia like that, but im also only human. If i see one scratch i reject the part. Parts don't typically get to the point of scratches going multiple...

Hey mate, You can adjust the teeth clearance to help with this. I made a little video on this but it uploaded in terrible quality sorry. ------------- Ok! An update on all things OMD: My international payment issue should be resolved this coming week. It's been quite the challenge to...
