Homebrew

This afternoon I mixed a batch of homemade binder, this is from a recipe from open3Dp called XF1. It is basically distilled water along with some IPA and a little food colouring. It runs through the print head fine:

But alas it does not bind the power, it is no different to the distilled water that was previously installed. I'm thinking the binder was developed to work with an open source powder or I have to leave it longer or change the saturation settings or similar. Frustrating but a good test of the machine.
