In other news, if you try to upload a file named uncalibrated_example.stl to Thingiverse, it fails with no error message, because somewhere they have a pr0n filter searching for rated*x.

Some people might find this bundle_scad.py code useful. It combines an STL, SCAD, and all its dependencies into a single file.

That is interesting. I'm professionally curious about the drive mechanism for the oscillation pattern on these now. As a former auto body shop owner and painter, I would not expect this to be free of mechanical error like a high quality pneumatic dual action sander, but it is an interesting idea. In fact I can imagine taking this to another level and creating a thin sanding blade like design with Emory paper, to use in very tight slots.

Bosch has a bunch that are quite useful for sanding in corners: https://www.boschtools.com/us/en/sanding-polishing-43817-ocs-ac/
