This is the only place in the whole print where this happens.

I just want to brag a bit. Printed on an Anycubic Kobra 2. Runs without much problems. At the moment 10 Days on a single winding, tweakble up to 32 days. The weight is from another wooden self build clock....

This one didn’t print right but I’m gonna try it again later I might change up the color too

UPDATE:...

I do a lot of soldering and for the last few years have been using SMD components. Up until recently I was buying short pieces of tape with a few dozens or a hundred components. The amount that I do has really increased and running our of components began to irritate me so I started buying them on commercial rolls of 4,000 or...

We meet “Steamboat Ed” at this year’s Maker Faire Bay Area, a veteren machinist who has taken to designing shop tools that anyone can 3D print! From a simple drill press to die filers and alignment clamps, Ed’s enthusiasm for making shop tools accessible is infectious! Plus, he shares with us his modular motorised...

In my last post I described how I mounted the Orbiter v2.0 to a Kobra Max in a makeshift fashion. This time I show you how the finished mounting looks like....

I made the “voronoi halloween pumpkin” off printables, thought it turned out nice:...

I understand the intent, but feel that there are so many other loopholes that put much worse weapons on the street than a printer. Besides, my prints can barely sustain normal use, much less a bullet being fired from them. I would think that this is more of a risk to the person holding the gun than who it’s pointing at.

This is so awesome. 1) Amazing in concept (CPU cooler on a 3d printer) 2) the clear plastic bits are so neat to see it working 3) the nostalgia for 90’s clear plastic gadgets.

I’m considering pulling the trigger on an X1C but the waste is a huge turn-off. I know there are options for purging to infill or a sacrificial object, but last I heard there’s still a considerable amount of purge/prime. Can someone who’s played with the settings tell me honestly how much progress has been made in reducing...

Finally got my hands on a Raspberry Pi 4. I installed MainsailOS and I followed this guide and got Klipper set up and running in a few hours....

So, mainly just a writing a PSA for any fellow printers out there using klipper with the octoeverywhere service. Updated both of my pi’s yesterday that run two printers. Tried to access both through octoverywhere today and neither would connect....

Does any of you have any experience with this? I’m looking at the Felfil Evo pellet extruder which seems like an acceptable option. One thing I don’t understand. Why are the shredder and spooler so ungodly expensive?...

Designed this storage solution for belts...

Hey folks! Today I got my first spool of TPU. I was quite excited to replace the cap of a controller’s joystick. But now I am looking for ideas what to print next....

My printer (well, PrusaSlicer) always starts with a line around the object I am printing. See (1) in the image. –Why? What does that do?...

After my last printer broke, I am considering getting this one for it’s high precision, vibration stabilisation, and other good features, but wanted to check your experience with it before going ahead.

Trying to design and print a clip for my crisper drawer, learning something new with every print....

I spent a couple hours learning FreeCAD and designed this pen holder for my spouse. They were super happy with it. If people want I can provide the CAD and STL files....

This is the base of a pumpkin. There is a little support where the over hang is a bit much to start. How did I get great smoosh on the support but not the first layer of the actual print?! They’re the same layer!
