More upgrades to the Prusa Mini. It now has an OctoDash with a Waveshare 4.3" DSI screen, and the Pi Camera 1 has been replaced with a Pi Camera 3 wide-angle. The garage light is currently off, this is just illuminated with the ring light, but you now get visibility of the sticker wall (yay), the full range of the print bed and the spool.
I'm happy with that. For now.

First print done, the camera is exaggerating the lines a bit. Is there anything right off the bat that more experienced #3dprinting people think I could change to do better?



Well, the honeymoon period with ABS is over. I designed a model that really loves to warp during printing! Vision Miner couldn't hold it down, it lifted a raft right off. Will need to get creative for this one.
Or just use some PETG... #3dprinting
Finally getting around to installing #Octopi on a second #rPi to put on my #SidewinderX2
Seems it doesn't want to share info with #Octoprint
Firmware version is 3.2.6
"Your printer's firmware supports host action commands, but they are disabled. The firmware will not inform OctoPrint about job pause & cancellations, filament runouts, and similar firmware-side events. If you want this functionality, you need to change your firmware's configuration."
I made my first original design to 3D print! A simple L bracket to stabilise my new shelving. The side for the shelf has chamfered holes for screws and the side on the wall is flat for using command strips (super strong and easy to remove double sided adhesive foam).
I feel like I don’t have the mind for CAD but I’m glad I managed this anyway! Baby steps.


He's just a little guy. Once my paint is delivered I'll be painting him up! #3dprinting #honkaistarrail

Just found some stick-on Magsafe rings on Amazon and designed a quick holder in preparation for AppleTV/Facetime Continuity camera thing. I tried mocking up something like this years ago by putting an iPad in front of the TV and setting it to Airplay to the TV, but it was pretty clunky.
Looking forward to this iteration. My only doubt is about the audio with the mic on the iPhone across the room.

Now I understand why those adhesive sprays for #3dprinting are selling for ~10€ per can.
hair spray without "great scent" is hard to get by sometimes. And you don't want to smell heated hair spray all the time. Really.

Multi color printing is cool, but doing 160 filament changes in a project kind of freaks me out for longevity of all the parts #3DPrinting
Wait, so OrcaSlicer is based on Bambu Studio, which is based on Prusa/Slic3r. All are AGPL.
OrcaSlicer doesn't function if not allowed to contact Bambu Labs' servers.
This doesn't violate the AGPL?
(Damn, I downloaded the network plugin thing and 5 minutes later I find a vuln by poking with 7zip. Why do I keep Looking at Things?)
Finished painting the #Dianoga (Trash Compactor Monster) from #StarWarsANewHope.

First print hot (well, cool) off my new Wham Bam FBS PEX Flexi Build Plate for the X1C and omg! The difference!
I’m used to PEI on my MK2.5 and haven’t used gluestick since my Duplicator I3. After needing glue on the cool plate, I remember why i disliked it.
But now, eeeeeee!!!

Saw some interesting #3dprinting stuff at #tct3sixty at the NEC, and got to say “thank you” to the Prusa team for their great guides and machines. Also, met this guy… kinda!

I discovered today I need to 3D print a part using ASA. Reading up on ASA filament, apparently my print is doomed to failure and I’ll die from fumes.🤷🏻♂️
It is a small object so I expect to get it to work 🤞🏻

Thinking of picking up a Prusa Mk3 soon as my very first introduction into 3d printing, what are your favorite 3d printing projects?
I just tried #OrcaSlicer for the first time, I've just not had time to test it until now.
Because it was based on #PrusaSlicer, #SuperSlicer, and #Slic3r, I hoped that I could just import my PrusaSlicer config, but could not because it expected a .json file and PrusaSlicer outputs a .ini, but I might have done this incorrectly.
So I configure a "Generic Klipper setup" and copied the values by hand by comparing settings with my PrusaSlicer setup and a bit of experience and intuition.
My first resulting print, a custim part by me compared to the PrusaSlicer, was worlds apart. The finish was greatly improved with bridges requiring no supports, however it did print a bit slower, 28 minutes instead of 18 minutes, but this might still just be speed settings.
I like the UI, although I am more used to PrusaSlicer, and I especially love that I can access #Mainsail and #Klipper from within the app.
@nobodyinperson That's a great use of #3Dprinting. It reminds me of the sofa in Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency...
Two months ago, I tackled a fairly involved #3DPrinting project...an electric #guitar
My plan was to assemble it, tune it up, and play it a little. When I was a teenager, I learned how to play guitar but never took it much further than when I graduated high school.
Building the guitar sparked a renewed interest in learning to play again. The 3D printed instrument is good but playing it is not the same as a real guitar.
I've always like the style of a Les Paul so yesterday, I stopped by a local music store and picked up an Epiphone Les Paul Custom.
I'm taking lessons online and have been thoroughly enjoying it! A lot of what I learned decades ago is coming back to me. My fingers and hands hurt but it's a good pain that I'm sure will eventually fade.

Crap, #Zardoz is in my back yard.

Sex is great, but have you ever designed and 3D printed a mechanical part and it worked the first time?
I'm confused, is this a bad file? Before slicing it has this rim on it around the letters and then when I go to slice it the rim is gone and the letters look like crap… #3DPrinting


Going to the NEC in Birmingham tomorrow, for the #tct3sixty event - basically a trade show around #3dprinting and related technologies. Sad there aren’t any hobbyist level shows in this space on the horizon in the UK (that I know of, at least), but willing to take a look at this.
A new Science study presents a method for #3Dprinting nanoscale optical-grade glass at 650°C—roughly 500°C lower than the sinter temperatures needed by other methods.
The approach may help redefine the paradigm for free-form manufacturing of silica glass. https://scim.ag/2Ue #press

couldn't figure out which @Playactiontoys #starwars greedo variant i liked more, so i wound up #3dprinting both

Someone shared the link to this and I had to print. Under two hours w/ ams. Had to paint myself, gonna upload a remix. #3DPrinting

Currently 3D printing my first ever custom design! I made a coaster holder in blender :D #3DPrinting
EDIT: oh I should've added an image of the model lol. Here it is! The most gothic coaster holder

Today I made free Nihilethic Zombie minis ready for #3Dprinting!

What are your 3d printing must-know tips?
I have wanted to dive in since 2019 and am starting to explore in earnest.

More fun with #3dprinting on the P1P:
A Daruma-inspired container/dice holder from Loot Studios. This seems like it would’ve taken multiple days on my older printers. Not only did these two parts finish in one day, I actually had to print the top half twice because the first had bad supports.
The problem with having good-quality prints so quickly is that now I have to learn how to clean up and paint them!

Does anyone of the #3dprinting crowd on here by any chance have eSun silk PLA in two tone green and blue on hand and could show off a (well lit) sample print? Trying to figure out how saturated the colors are, the product pictures look surprisingly muted...
Wow, #Reddit (cw: lots of nsfw) will kill #Apollo (and all 3rd party apps) by introducing a Twitter-esque absurd API pricing, which would cost Apollo’s single dev US$20M/yr (!) to keep running.
I guess I’m quitting Reddit… 1st party apps (Web and mobile) are UX garbage. I can only tolerate modern Reddit with Apollo (which I paid for)!
It’s a shame because Reddit has amazing #VintageApple, #3Dprinting, #MechanicalKeyboard and more great communities, such as for cities.

Early #3dprinting experiments from the Bambu Lab P1P using their included filament, two beardy fantasy guys from Loot Studios, and the tiki idol that the Bradys blamed for all their failures and misfortunes, from Thingiverse.
I understand the criticisms of 3D printing in general, and Bambu Lab specifically, but it’s such a luxury to have a printer that just works with almost no hassle, and produces really nice results. Can’t wait to start printing my own models again.

I've really enjoyed the disc-based planners I've seen people use but I've balked at the price of supplies.
I've designed discs that are compatible with said planners and even a 1/2 US letter page cover that can be #3dprinted
The cost of printing the rings is about 1/10 of the commercial versions and are fully parametric allowing one to make any size binder disc or protector sheet they wish.
#3dprinting for the win.
Can anyone help me figure out how to get a #3dprint of a vintage cabinet hinge? #3dprinting #carpentry
I really like the way this translucent rainbow filament seems to glow in the sunlight #3dprinting
A note, if you need to change filament while #3dprinting and the print was initiated via octoprint, your safest bet is octoprint's pause button, and NOT the printer's!
Octoprint will not receive the Pause command from the printer display and will continue to send gcode. Worse, it may cause odd states where the extruder and heaters are "paused", but the print still continues.
My 12 year old son made an Aztec pyramid for history class using some simple CAD software. Of the class, he tied for best grade and got it 3D printed.
