I've only had my printer a week or so and I have a 16gb and even with that if it was full you'd get bored scrolling through the prints. You'd be better off with 2-3 smaller ones. What I find is while it's printing we are often slicing a new print and it would be useful to just put it on a different card ready to go.
But you can get 8gb for around £2 or Branded 16gb for just over £3 from Amazon - the 128gb will either be very old stock or failed production cards. You only need 1 or 2 cards anyway?

awsnizzy ?
I put it in to eBay and found some expensive ones in the £7-8 range , no smaller 2 to 4 GB capacities either .

Can you throw up a link to these please , I spent a fair while yesterday and couldn't find any really cheap ones like you mention .
Armalites has hit the nail on the head , put a dozen or so prints on a card and it gets boring looking for them have four or five or 10 cards smaller there is enhancenment
If cards are cheap enough to put say five project only on each card to me that would be much more preferable , having a page in a diary ( Kept with them ) a page for each project would make life easier I'm sure . For I can add notes such as temp settings and filament type etc. as I refer hand written records , against something on my phone that I need glasses and a Phd in computer studies to find again .
I did find some on eBay in the bidding area but the set of five on offer went for silly money in the end .
I don't want to keep any finished work on my computer or my independent 500 GB hard drive if I can help it as we are prone to getting lightening strikes that have killed everything despite us having protected supplies etc.
I hope to keep the used cards in an earthed out faradays cage ...… a small 125 x 125 x 35 mm steel case with a hinged door , kept out in the office by the printer cabinet .
Few more prints done now. Really think I need some more colours than just yellow fluorescent. But seem to get a little bit of stringing so dropped the temp 5degrees and made a bit of difference. Will try another 5 off in the next prints.

Yes, that price includes the adapter and I have never noticed any difference between then and a full size SD

The importance of a good splicer, lost alot of time changing my drawing was nothing more than my the splicer.
Gt2 2mm pitch. Used parameters on fusion 360 change the details get a different gear.
Im going to use 3mm pitch as it should be easier to get an accurate print.
Now to produce a gear, make some shafts and my electronic gear box is nearly ready to test. Easy metric threads here we come maybe

My cheap printer is doing well. Really want to quickly prototype what im doing, this would have cost me alot of time with out one.
Took 20mins to have drawn up.
Have 4 shafts to make up and bushing then my electronic gearbox can be tested.
This was a low quality print aswell

Any of you fusion 360 guys point me in the right direction or even be very kind and send me an STL. I know I am being cheeky but time is against me.I am trying to come up with a die holder. Essentially I need a 3 inch box 20 mm tall with a slot in the center 2 inches square 10mm deep. The attached photos show what I need to end up with and why I need it in plastic..lol Its not longe tem but testing proof of concept.
If I could be really cheeky
if anyone could record the screen as they produce it I could learn at the same time how to make another a bit thicker with a deeper slot.I am pretty sure its a simple case of pushing and pulling to extrude boxes within each other but I have been trying with tinker cad for 3 hours and I am now Bald.
I tried fusion and it started laughing at me I am sure. Its to make a die to stamp out 2inch squares from 2mm thick roofing felt essentially.
You are a star. Its not quite what I need however. Imagine the centre area filled in with a box that is52mm BUT is only 10mm deep....THEN another box 51mm square but is back up to 20mm deep.
Essentially creating a 1mm slot that is 52mm square and 10mm deep I then tap in the die rule (basically glorified stanley blades) to form a square with the cutting edges outwards. This will them go into a press to cut out a perfect 2 inch square. in the roofing felt
The 3 D print is really a holder for the cutting blades.
