- schoen 7y agoYes, the original text links "machine for making stone" to https://www.creality3dshop.de/collections/3d-printer/products/creality3d-ld-002r-uv-resin-lcd-3d-printer https://www.creality3dshop.de/collections/3d-printer/product... and "this machine can make stone out of liquid" to https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n_muoXfXlEg https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n_muoXfXlEg, but I didn't preserve any of the links or images in my translation here. There are several other links in the original text to specific technical resources or details. :-)
- jan_Inkepa 7y agoYeah, you're right. The word translated as 'stone' also can mean 'hard object, metal, rock', and refers here to plastic object - so the 3d printer is somehow a "hard-object device". Doesn't make much sense without the link to a video to provide context! (Welcome to Toki Pona, where often things make no sense out-of-context... ).
