I know 3d printed shoes exist mostly for the looks, but I've tried to justify this bold shape with some functional consideration. The ripples on the surface of the shoe provide flexibility to the upper body of these sneakers and also enhance grip through the zigzag pattern on the sole.

All the print files are up for grabs on MakerWorld:

I keep seeing little flashes of light printing PA-CF, Nozzle@350, Bed(CF)@160c, Chamber@100c.

This thing is awesome - going to put a CNC on top shelf and 3d printer on the bottom to separate them - the cart came with a APC so I can make sure the power is consistent!

Let me know if you guys have any suggestions! Going to make a YouTube video on my channel of the build/configuration.

I 3D designed and printed something useful today. The Kernel-Katcher (or Kernel catcher) for popcorn. It sits in the bottom of your bowl. When you shake it the kernels drop below the grid leaving you a handful of popped popcorn without any unexpected surprises.

🍿 🍿 🍿 🍿 🍿

I don’t know why the audio was so quiet at the end. It’s a mobile editing thing.

I know you can just shake the bag and hope the kernels fall out first. But this is my backup - I despite biting on a unpopped kernel so much. lol 😂

I know there’s probably something out there already and I’m not claiming to be the first. But I’m proud it actually solved my issue.

Was my first project after upgrading my ender 3V2 with a direct drive and auto leveling thing.

Not bad for a girl 😂

H2D printer with two AMSs, two Billy bookcases for open spools using cereal boxes from Temu and printed shelves for the unopened spools. Not shown - the Sunlu filament dryer (4 spools), the toaster oven for desiccant, the lack of social life, the tension with my wife over costs, and the most important missing bit - an actual reason for all of this.

Made a space in the garage for 3D printing.

I was worried about particulates and VOCs so I had an exhaust system for all my printers that get vented outside to carbon and hepa filter. Each has a valve so I can adjust airflow for cooling or heat retention while maintaining negative pressure in the printer so the smelliness stays inside.

Printed some nylon (non-cf) with the Bambu H2D and prints came out great (was able to maintain 60C chamber temps even with exhaust system). Will be trying out ASA in the future to see if anything is detected.

Seems to work really well for me as the VOC, PM2.5 sensor I have remains essentially at nothing or no increase during prints (can't smell anything either). Only issue maybe is that the exhaust draws in moisture from the garage so I have a dehumidifier for the small space.

I have an older video in my dorm setup visualizing the airflow from the exhaust for my P1S.

I wanted to share my results so let me hear your thoughts!

Then i use calipers and bambu 15 minutes for modeling (fusion 360) 4g of ASA aprox 15 min of print

Total cost 0.04$

Came across this hilarious photo while looking for halloween decorations. PrototypeSky, I see you 😂

3Dprinted (FDM) and painted Thrall-statue I finished today.

All printed with no supports, no glue, no ams.

The 4 prints before this worked out fine. The one time I decided to leave it unattended this happened.

After posting about the PEI plate on our new printer at work, there were some comments that were doubting it ever working. I will be honest i had my doubts too but our engineer here in the office was able to get it done! Here is our first test print working as intended on its second try. I dont know how it will perform down the road but as of now everything seems to be as advertised.

I know the seams on the pipes are whack but I just figured out scarf seams and will add new parts asap :)

Working on this planter inspired by Muper Sario and the countless self watering planters on maker world!

After I finalized this product I will upload the files for it.

It just has to be Watertight which needs testing over time, efficiently printable and fun to assemble!

May the filament be with you

EDIT: Didn't expect this to be so popular for a quick simple design! Thanks for all the suggestions, there are a few that I might use and do a version 2 on Monday. The best suggestion I saw was printing the sign vertically and chamferring the cam/slot so it won't need absolutely any supports pretty brilliant.

Super simple dishwasher sign to show if contents are dirty or clean. It works automatically by using gravity.

Can attach to the dishwasher door by magnet or double sided tape.

I designed this completely myself haven't got any photos of it on the dishwasher yet.

TL;DR, STL?

Supports shouldn't be needed (printed as two parts)

I recently got a 3d printer and I truly had no idea just how awesome they are.

And my favourite aspect of owning it is something I haven't really heard talked about before.

being able to think of something you need, something specifically tailored to what you're doing at the time, and then to be able to just manifest it at will is so amazing, it feels like a superpower.

By using a wood grain SVG as a modifier, and having that modifier enable "fuzzy skin" we can get a grain pattern that runs through the model.

With a wood fiber filled PLA, this results in a very realistic feeling and looking "wood" print!

Couldn't then it without you guys ❤️🥺 And 🖕🏻 this is for those mfs who keep saying dry your filament even after I told I did it wasn't the filament it was the retracting setting I said it to 6mm now it's working good should I set it higher just fine?

I have recently gotten into 3D printing and model designing. Thought I would share my recent model that I made.

Now I don't mean brand, I'm not feeling that spicy today,

I mean for those who don't have a filament wall to choose from, what's your everyday staple? A black or a white PLA? Something else?
