    What Are You Printing Today?

    That's crazy amazing!!!!! Excellent work! Did you create the STL or grab it from somewhere? Your final result SUPER reminds me of when I used to do really basic "glass blowing" (which was me using pliers to squeeze glass I melted with propane torch) ;)

    They're getting cheaper!

    So awesome to see 3D printing getting cheaper and easier to use! I'm LOVING my Ender 3 V3 SE. Super easy to setup, calibrate, and print... and you can get it for as low as $180! Just incredible!

    3D reproduction..

    Wow, great job!! That's a super professional design! Did you create it or download it? Too bad you don't live closer, I have a stack of 100 of those I need to get rid of (and that's after purging about 200 others) LOL!

    What Are You Printing Today?

    I like to use horizontal expansion / hole expansion settings in the models if they are a little tight. That way the overall dimensions of the model aren't changed.

    Bambulab X1C bed made from cheese soft material?

    Interesting! I watch a LOT of videos where people put these (and other) printers through a lot of stress-tests, and I haven't seen this as one of the things / issues reported. ... but I'd definitely be curious to see more info / details about this as things progress!

    What Are You Printing Today?

    A great example of why I love 3D printing! My tenant in my attached ADU rental said the timer knob in the bathroom broke. Only took me about half hour (and $0.20 plastic) to find the model and print it.

    3D Printing Under Water?

    LOL! My GF was combing the cat this morning. I told her about your saying, and she replied, "... but I do it so she has fewer hairballs!" I think she missed the intent of the saying. ;)

    3D Mouse trap..

    Good luck! It's a great design, but make sure to check it regularly.... it can get quite nasty if they get left in the water for a long time.:sick

    New Bambu Bed Slinger

    After watching some of the videos, here's my take (for me): Smaller than I expected I guess it's "easy cheap entry level multi-color printing"... but since mulit-color never really resonates with me, I'm kinda "meh" about it. (especially since the color-swaps can add so much time to a print)...

    New Bambu Bed Slinger

    It's crazy to see how many videos came out today from popular 3D printing youtubers that clearly already had one of the units (and must have signed NDA's not to say a word until today). It's funny because one youtuber that is pretty popular is also kinda anti-bambu, and he's been putting out...

    Creality Ender-3 V3 SE : Great Price - Solid Printer?

    Ok it's here!!! Assembly was super fast / easier. More than any of the other Creality printers I've had! Bed leveling was insanely easy: ... and I appreciate I can choose not to do it for future prints unless I want to re-calibrate / level. I was very surprised and bummed that there wasn't...

    Creality Ender-3 V3 SE : Great Price - Solid Printer?

    I'm so confused. I don't know why Creality needs like 20 versions of the Ender 3?!?!? So, I guess the upcoming "Ender 3 V3" is different from the "Ender 3 V3 SE"? I think they need to: 1) Simplify their offerings and/or 2) Improve their naming convention

    Creality Ender-3 V3 SE : Great Price - Solid Printer?

    Yup, I've heard this about a lot of the corexy "fast" printers... that pretty much all of them need CRAZY cooling to firm-up that large amounts of molten plastic coming out fast. I've read this too. I like the idea of multi-color/material, but do I use it enough to justify the added cost and...

    Creality Ender-3 V3 SE : Great Price - Solid Printer?

    Well guys, while I figure out if I want to eventually try a core-XY printer, I pulled the trigger on getting the new Ender-3 V3 SE! It was just too tempting at $195 not to give it a try... especially since I've always wanted to try auto-bed-leveling and direct-drive extruder. ... but now that...
