Yet another printer aimed at the same market as Bambu. Initial reviews seem quite good and for anyone about to buy a printer there are some good discounts for Early Birds, or as I call them "Beta Testers" :lol:

I don;t know how I missed this for so long but I just discovered Hueforge software and the interesting way you can create 2d/3d type prints, even without a mulitcolour capable printer.

A very interesting new model from Prusa.

If you have ever tried Freecad and hated the user interface then this might be for you.... https://ondsel.com/ Freecad with a completely different and more intuitive user interface NOTE - ITS not FREE if you want the full features!

This video shows how to resume a print after a clog or other print failure. Worth saving the link for that inevitable day when your print fails after hours of printing!

This new machine from Ratrig has some pretty innovative features. If I was in the market for a new printer I'd buy the full kit in preference to a Bambu or a Voron. Hybrid mode and idex can also be added later without any major alterations of the machine.

This looks very promising and worth trying out soon in Orca Slicer intially.

If you are bored you can watch this video where Thomas Sanladerer builds this €72 wobbly printer and seeemingly enjoyed it :)

Soon be as cheap as a roll of filament :lol: https://www.aliexpress.us/item/1005005336550435.html?gatewayAdapt=4itemAdapt

Will be interesting to see reviews on this little machine https://bambulab.com/en-gb/a1-mini

You can buy cheap drawer sets for ocmponents but if you are a bit OCD and want to have spefific sizes and units that can be configured in may different ways then these seem a great printable solution... https://www.printables.com/model/230356-modular-shelving-system-hobby-workshop-small-parts

Don't own an Ender but I know some do in the forum (@The Hat @Nifty ) so saw this and thought it was worth thinking about... at £29. https://www.crealityofficial.co.uk/products/ender-3-series-direct-extruding-kits

Bought some Canon OEM ink (GI 56 BK bottle) in the hope of refilling a Maxify cart. I can't work out how to either get a needle into the bottle or alternatively remove the fancy refill valve on the bottle. Anyone refilled from the same bottles and can help?

If you want to push your printer look no further... https://fullcontrol.xyz/#/models This one is fun ;) https://fullcontrol.xyz/#/models/67cf20

Very interesting way to created coloured Lithophanes

If you are a hobbyist that needs some organisation for the hundreds of different parts you have or you can't think of anything to feed your 3D printer with then this is a great project, fast and ecomonical to print too...

As per the title the presenter examines the possible link between dual gear extruders and print artefacts. Interestingly he suggests that the Prusa Mini and Ender 3 may produce better prints than the Prusa MK3 due to only using a single gear rather than the dual gear extruder.

Not interested in this as I have a Mac and they only have Windoze software and no affiliation but if you are considering a professional grade design software then it may be of interest...

More tyres than you can shake a stick at... https://www.thingiverse.com/dougcostlow/collections/airless-tires

Just seen this interesting little printer. Appears you can mix three colours and also mix filaments as long as the temps are pretty similar. Would be interesting to blend something like PLA and PETG or Nylon on the twin extruder version.
