Heres my Dracolich 3D printed and painted by one of my patrons

I'm happy the swappable heads worked out :)

Spooky and draconic: the perfect combo haha

I was trying to get all my printing workflow on one Linux laptop. I edited the model in #Blender to remove one part of the back then I exported it to #PrusaSlicer and from there to #UVtools and from there to the printer. Looks like it managed to print all the sports and none of the print itself.
I think I cut out more than I should have.

I went back and used #Chitubox to see if it was my edit that went wrong or the auto supports.

And I installed an extraction fan!

@fabbaloo first off #3DPrinting medicines have regulations for example the controlled substance act requires a prescription & other restrictions so I am curious how those makers legally get that material

Updated my Prusa Core One+ to Gen 2. VFA test print before and after in Prusament PETG Galaxy Black. VFA seem slightly less pronounced in some cases. I wouldn't say there's a dramatic difference with GT1.5 compared to GT2 #3dprinting #prusa @3dprinting

Shall I post a video?

Meshy 7 has arrived with significantly improved geometry alignment, solving the biggest hurdle in AI-generated 3D models - structural fidelity. The updated AI can now generate meshes with proper silhouettes from all angles, making them suitable for 3D printing. It also adds mesh repair tools, region editing via text prompts, and colour assignment for multi-material prints. https://3dprint.com/331847/meshy-7-all-the-fingers-and-toes/ #3Dprint #3Dprinting #Software

Designed a 3D printed case for Hop Shot my micro dexterity board game currently in final testing.

Also commissioned an illustrated card back that's pending; once done will order a batch of cards and be ready to ship out prototypes to those interested in playtesting.

🍞 NEW: Engineers in #HongKong mixed a simulated Martian rock with gelatin and engineered #yeast whose cells carry adhesive #proteins.

Pushed through a nozzle into cold, near-vacuum conditions, the mixture freeze-dries into a porous foam. So far the test domes are only 45 mm tall, but the material reaches 10 to 12 megapascals in compressive strength, comparable to low-grade #concrete.

An agent that can stage a six-hour print but is not allowed to press start.

The 3D-printer skill I built for my AI assistant slices the model, uploads the gcode, then stops and asks. The human keeps the start button.

One further design iteration of my 3D printed lens hood/light baffle seems to have done the trick. v5b goes back to the 5 mm long, 2 perimeters thick telescope interface but bumps up the diameter just slightly for a snug push fit into the aperture on the 'scope. The thread is in place to stop it dropping on to the concrete patio tiles when the Seestar closes itself at the end of the night so hopefully I won't get any more broken lens hoods.

I've designed all these so that they shouldn't induce any vignetting at all, but I'll still take some new twilight flats shortly just in case the illumination is slightly different to the previous version.

The weather forecast says it'll be clear pretty much all night but that humidity will hit 99% by around midnight so it'll probably be foggy before morning. Definitely a night to turn the dew heater on, but the lens hood should also help keep condensation off the lens.

Ooh, look!!! I updated a thing!
The first set for my #miniPainting handle.

Now with 10,000% more hand bracing (since it had zero hand bracing bars before and now it has a few)!
