1920's Princeton freshman class orientation traditional Sock garters!

I wonder how many of them it would take to change a light bulb...

Princeton is an Ivy League school, so I assume many. Even more if you ask a Harvard or Yale alumnus.

I received both MK9 and MK10 silicone socks for my CR-10. The MK10 is too tall, but the MK9 silicone fits like a glove... er, um.... a sock!

Here's the one I got for $1.55 shipped! (so crazy cheap)

Here are pics of the MK9 silicone sock on my Creality CR-10 :

@Nifty that should give better temperature control especially using the air directional Fang and keep the heat in the nozzle far more stable, and will make it so much easier when replacing the nozzle too.

The one I use has four sides to it, the (Mk 10) but I will order the same ones you’ve got, yours really look a neat fit...
