    Ender Direct Drive extruder deal

    From what I've read / heard, direct-drive is better than Bowden in almost all ways if the extruder is one of the newer light / low-weight options.

    UV Hot Resin 3D printer !

    Resin still freaks me out. I don't know that I'll ever give it a go. Maybe I'll wait for @The Hat to show me the way ;)

    CR-10 back in the saddle again..

    Good job! Since I have my Ender 3 V2 as my primary printer now, I'm tempted to start testing things on the CR-10... maybe swapping out the board? Klipper? etc? It's way easier and less-stressful to do stuff like that when there's zero pressure or need that it's the primary device.

    Very interesting! I wish I could help out, but I don't know anything about resin printers. Hoping someone that does can chime-in! Either way, I'm very curious to see what direction you go!

    Canon printers. How many of us are still refilling?

    I hate to admit it (because refiling was a joy of my life for over a decade)... but now that: My kids are grown, so I don't need to print color photos very often (almost never) I've been way more focused on 3D printing I got such a great deal on my color laser printer, I just use that for color...

    PLA reacting to heat much more quickly.. !

    I don't think I've ever had a clog before... maybe in the early days? ... of course, always printing with a .6 or larger nozzle helps avoid them a bit more than .4 :)

    PLA reacting to heat much more quickly.. !

    I've definitely had a wide degree of experience with different manufacturers and batches of PLA! I think this is probably why Prusa went to so much trouble with their filament to track and supply all the details about each and every roll! Fortunately, 99% of the stuff I print doesn't require a...

    3D Modeling Tutorial - OnShape

    Huh, really? I think I've pretty much been with only two (others I've tested for a day or two), but I did Tinkercad for about 3-4 years, and then about a year or so ago started using OnShape. ... of course, maybe you only have two hats? LOL! Wait, am I reading this right? That you think that...
