(I’ve been informed that I had been told complete BS by the person trying to tell me that resin printing 1:72 wargame minis would be stupidly expensive. As such, my question here is no longer relevant.)...

Typically I would just buy whatever brand had the cheapest white color PLA (I like to paint my print) and quality wasn’t always top of mind. Now I have several prints that I want to do in all kids of different colors and quality matters. Given the new color and quality requirements, it no longer makes sense to get the...

Would this be a good idea? The bottom surface of the printed things would be way more flat. Anyone tested this? Any reason why i shouldnt test it?

Hello, I’m looking for some help with my newly installed Creality Sprite Pro. I spent a few hours yesterday getting it installed onto my Ender 3 and getting my Klipper configs all up to date but for whatever reason once i moved on to setting my E Steps i noticed the printer would not extrude filament. I reseated the extruder...

Hello fellow printers!...

I’m tired of having a full body strength workout trying to remove my prints from the default glass plate....

I’m trying to print this custom design, but having some issues. What would be the best way to investigate the problem I am having?...

I’ve recently returned to the hobby, after some lifestyle changes brought on by the pandemic. It’s been a lot of fun catching up on the latest developments, like the emergence of Bambu, etc. My printer is an Ender 3 from Sainsmart, bought in late 2019. I’m guessing it’s one of the earliest hardware revisions. I printed a...

A friend and I have an idea we want to begin working on to take something small, rescale, and print it....

I just got a glass build plate for my S1 Pro, and I’m not sure of the best way to use it. The bed has two screws at the back that stick up a bit past the magnetic sheet and the PEI build plate has two notches to accommodate them, which helps line up the plate. The glass build plate doesn’t have any notches, so it can’t go...

Hello I am looking for a design for an electronic box, the requirements are:...

EDIT: solution is in the comments. TL;Dr retractions ON and INCREASE speed. Both opposite to common knowledge....

Here goes....

I have an Ender 5 Plus with some upgrades (“Old” MicroSwiss Direct Drive, Exoslide XY, custom shroud) and I occasionally have the issue in which the Cables for the Print head as well as the Filament Feeding Tube interfere or get caught on something on the printer....

Just wanted to come back and say a special thanks to this awesome community for helping me on my last post! lemm.ee/post/7546629...

Hey folks,...

Hi everyone,...

I’m considering making some upgrades to my ender 3 Pro, such as one of the multi material upgrades, but that would require more motors. Anyone know of a good motherboard? Thanks!

Can we discuss printing using services (jlcpcb, pcbway, shapeways etc) here? Materials, limitations, personal experiences etc?...

Have you ever wondered if the yellow/orange plastic windows that all resin/SLA 3D printers have are sufficient?...

Do you know if there are any electroluminescent filaments and where to buy them?

Recently did a test print with Creality Pla-wood. The smell during the print is amazing, I’m kind of hooked. I printed something flat, was easy to sand and stain looks incredible, 100% looks like wood. It’s been 48h and no matter how much I wipe the thing it’s still tacky / leaves a little residue on my hands. Do I just...

Can anyone recommend a good place to get parts for a homebrew system (available to Canada, at a reasonable price)....
