3D Printing with Gabriel and Urban | FREEDOM TECH FRIDAY 39

In this episode of Freedom Tech Friday, hosts Q, Max, and Seth are joined by Gabriel Custodiet and Urban Hacker from Watchman Privacy to explore 3D printing as a critical freedom technology. The conversation is tailored for beginners, arguing that a 3D printer is an essential tool for circumventing fragile supply chains, creating custom tools and replacement parts, and building self-sufficiency in an increasingly controlled world.

The guests walk through the hardware landscape, strongly recommending the Elegoo Centauri Carbon (~$300) as the ideal starter machine for its open-source friendliness, offline capability, and modern features like auto-leveling. They issue stark warnings against closed ecosystems like Bambu and FlashForge, which rely on cloud connectivity, lock users into proprietary slicers, and have signaled a willingness to censor what can be printed. Gabriel shares a cautionary tale about ultra-cheap legacy printers like the Creality Ender 3, explaining how poor assembly, dangerous outdated firmware, and frustrating workflows can kill a beginner's motivation before they even start.

The episode covers the full printing pipeline: sourcing vetted models from sites like Printables, processing them through the open-source slicer called Cura, and dialing in key beginner settings like infill density and print speeds. Urban and Gabriel also address the leap from downloading trinkets to designing custom functional parts, acknowledging the mechanical engineering learning curve while pointing to Blender and YouTube tutorials as accessible offline tools.

On materials, the guests strongly advocate for PLA as the default filament due to its low toxicity and reliability, contrasting it with more demanding and dangerous materials like resin. They also have an honest conversation about the economics of 3D printing — acknowledging that mass-produced items from China are often cheaper, but arguing that the real value lies in keeping your manufacturing skills sharp and your independence intact.

Gabriel and Urban Talk 3D Printing This Week on FTF

Watchman's Torch is a top notch newsletter and we are excited to have @WatchmanPrivacy and @realUrbanHacker on Freedom Tech Friday this week to talk about 3D printing.

We hope you can join us at 9 AM EST/1 PM UTC on May 8th.

In the meantime, grab a sub to Watchman's Torch.

BIP47DB IS LIVE

A month after the white paper went live at https://bip47db.github.io, Max Tannahill has created the tool and it is live: http://bip47db.org

Inscribe and browse BIP47 payment codes from your browser.

Mainnet ready, fully client-side, no server to trust.

The protocol whitepaper has been refined to v1.6 with community feedback, esp @MightyMercurian.

If you missed the first tweet: BIP47 reusable payment codes solve real privacy problems but depend on directory services like http://paynym.rs.

Those are centralised. If they go down, wallet recovery from seed alone breaks for connections you've made.

Max @maxtannahill · 5h BIP47DB inscribes the directory itself onto Bitcoin.

The Publisher tool walks you through inscribing a batch of payment codes:

– Fetch from http://paynym.rs (or paste manually): Sign a single message with your BIP47 wallet (@AshigaruFanClub/@SamouraiWallet)

– Cosign the funding tx with @SparrowWallet: Up to 5,000 codes per batch. Validates the UTXO covers fees before you sign anything.

The Browse tab decodes inscriptions back into a searchable database.

Anyone can sync from a @mempool API endpoint and verify every record cryptographically.

There is no trust in the indexer, no trust in the publisher.

The whole site is static HTML + JS. The repo is open source.

The single CORS proxy he runs (for the http://paynym.rs fetch convenience) only relays one specific endpoint and rejects unknown origins.

If Max disappeared tomorrow, anyone could host this themselves in an hour.

The April tweet got a healthy mix of "this is cool" and "Ordinals are cancer.", and he's very grateful for all the technical feedback.

As for BIP110 signallers? He doesn't care what you think.

Try it at http://bip47db.org/app Read the spec at http://bip47db.org/paper Issues / PRs at http://github.com/bip47db/bip47db.github.io

Mainnet inscriptions are now possible but no batches have been written yet.

I'm waiting for the first one to be by the community or Ashigaru, not me.

Have at it and make sure to join Freedom Tech Friday on the Ungovernable Misfits feed on May 15th @ 9 AM EST to get the full breakdown of this important tech!

No More Martyrs | THE UNBOUNDED SERIES: Colonial

I loved this episode when TBD first released it on the Unbounded Youtube channel. Now it has a forever home on the Ungovernable Misfits feed. If you haven't read Colonial and Thunder over Golgotha at Sovereign Colony, I highly recommend it.

Almost There...

The Brief That Should Have Been Out Wednesday...

Due to issues with the Podcast Index and the conscious decision by Fountain to choose an unconventional method of grabbing new episodes from podcasts, the new Bitcoin Brief sat in limbo waiting to appear on Fountain for 4 days.

Every other podcast app had it on the Wednesday.

Darth the Derp is a middle aged faggot that lives in a tree fort.

The government does not look for him because he only exists on Nostr and poses no threat from a ditch off the highway. No one looks for him because he does not matter to anyone. Much like a tranny or incel he is doing society a favor by self selecting himself out of the gene pool.

As he gets older, he will continue to morph into a crazy liberal cat lady. The reality that he never accomplished anything of importance will continue to burrow into his psyche making him more unbearable than he already is.

In western society, we lost the art of shaming people; to tar, feather and parade them around in a fashion that is deserving of their actions. Darth the Derp's social media resume alone makes him ripe for such a ceremony.

My hope is that those that see this post do what's best: hurl an insult, block and unfollow him.

May he forever live in a social circle of one for being the wretched person he is.

Currently available for 0.025 Pool Remixing using my Ashigaru Terminal on Fart9 🔥.

Due to the new packaging requirements of the upcoming Start9 release I don't think you'll see it around the v3.6 marketplace any time soon. But, I am working on getting into 4.0 Beta as quick as I can.

Here is the v3.6 release I've made that you can sideload:

https://github.com/linkinparkrulz/ashigaru-terminal/releases/tag/v0.0.1

It runs the same as the Sparrow Webtop.

Why is it that the same people that were spinning retards out about OP_Return are now doing the same thing with denominations?

Best work Bitcoin Core has done in years

After a long wait we are ready to release our first presentation that can be used by anyone for their local bitcoin meetups.

It's called ASHIGARU BASICS

• Make a testnet wallet & connecting to a dojo
• Get your first testnet coins from a faucet
• Follow and Connect to a Paynym
• Make your first BIP47 transaction

This presentation can be a lecture or an interactive experience with provided materials. And getting testnet transactions under new users belts can be a confidence improving exercise for those new to bitcoin and how wallets work.

We look forward to making more of these in the future and hope that @WebWipeMeDown has success with it at @PubKey on May 1st for the Pubkey Privacy Meetup.

Sorry for missing your XMR chat 😅 .

I'll make usre it's in the rotation for next MM. As for the ACTION NEWS! ones, I am going to enjoy listening to those get read lol

In future episodes of

, you will see three new splits:

10% for FreeSamourai 10% for @bitcoin_bugle 10% for Expatriotic

Using @getAlby, we have created a subaccount with the LN address [email protected] on our AlbyHub, which will take in boosts, streams and donations and send them over the the p2prights fund at the end of every week.

The Bugle is getting 10% because we want to support independent journalism and 40HPW.

Expatriotic is a new member of the Ungovernable Crew and longtime booster. He'll be helping with creating written materials and presentations that can be used at your local meetups to educate others on tools such as Ashigaru, Dojo, Zeus etc.

after listening to you with

and

you should check this episode out!

The beginning of a great cognitive dissonance example. Take the checklist out and see how many you can find!

I counted 4. Great Job 👍

Wait til you see what's in store 👀

Can't wait 🔥
