  1. I've been doing a bunch of iterative test prints today (adjusting design for the correct fit) along with printing a bunch of boring utilitarian bits for my own use. So I've been using my oldest box of filament from my stash, because (a) don't let it get too old, and (b) it's the oldest because I haven't wanted to use it for anything to date, so why not get rid of it?

    This particular reel is "metallic gold" and it has an awful, fake-y gold sheen to it. It's ugly. Downright tacky.

    I'm feeling very Presidential as a result.

  3. Ooh, look! I made a thing!

    A minimal yet useful grip clip to keep from losing the ends of filament into dryboxes and such.

  5. Das gute Sunlu Deutschland Bundle. Sogar mit weiß, für unsere Mitbürger die gern in der Zeit zurück reisen wollen.

  7. I really hate when the #filament breaks just at the #extruder. And this time breaked because the #nozzle was completely occluded, apparently. So I have to dismantle the whole #HotEnd and #BowdenTube.
    Sometimes I hate #3Dprinting (or maybe it's my printer?)

    Na, habt Ihr einen 3D-Drucker und viel Abfall?

    Nervt es Euch, dass vom teuren Filament so viel weggeworfen werden muss?

    Dafür gibt es eine coole Lösung. Oder besser gesagt: soll es geben. 😊

  11. My personal website is now powered by #Laravel + #Filament.

    The redesign wasn't about looks.

    It was about having a system that makes publishing content effortless and maintainable long term.

    I shared the reasons behind the rebuild in a new blog post:

  12. Recycling filament to create new ones takes time and a lot of attention!

    This ESP Cam gives me acoustic alerts via a web server. An old smartphone or any device running a browser is good enough for this purpose. Finally, I can leave it alone. Next, I’ll boot up @freecad to design a nice mount. #artme3d #recycling #filament

  14. Been messing around with #Filament for #Laraval a bit and gotta say, it's quite wonderful!

    It's almost easier to create a website + CMS from "scratch" then setting up WordPress or whatever that's kinda bloated

    Made a super simple site where i can share photos via admin panel etc

  16. I've been 3D-printing for around five and a half years. So I'm not a rookie, but I just made a #rookie #mistake.

    I've spent the last couple of weeks making compartments and dividers and such for the toolboxes I take to the Repair Cafe. Lots of test #prints to check fits and footprints, full prints, changes to design based on lessons learned during use at the last cafe, etc. I've put around three kilograms of #filament through my printer in that time.

    Then, in the last couple days, I started having various problems. At first they only showed up on big prints - #adhesion and #curling, which I've had before when pushing the limits of my bed size. But prints seemed to be getting #sloppier, and I had a couple of spaghetti explosions.

    Tonight, I finally took the #hotend apart and looked at it closely - it's very difficult to do when the printer is fully assembled, because it's a #delta printer.

    Lo and behold, the nozzle appeared worn. And that can account for all the problems.

    I should have checked this sooner - but I've only been printing plain #PLA, nothing abrasive, so I didn't think of it. Lesson learned.

    Pardon the shitty photo from a cheap digital magnifier. The old #nozzle #orifice is about 1.5x the diameter of the new one - so 2.25x the area. No wonder plastic was going everywhere but where it should go!

    Seems to be printing *much* better with a new nozzle.

  18. On May 19 we have Pim Elshoff talking about: Filament vs Inertia, and other bad ways to make UX decisions

    We have:
    - A place to meet other like-minded people
    - Free food (pizza, including vegan) and drinks provided by Suma Eindhoven
    - A @jetbrains license to raffle

  20. Who needs fancy #filament spool holders? Not me 😅

    Could not resist getting a shiny 2kg #Prusament Galaxy PLA spool during clearance.

    Being well equipped with dryers and storage boxes for 1kg, this 125mm wide monster, provided a bit of a challenge at home.

    Obviously the cardboard solution did not work well. The vibrating A1mini and holder kept pulling toward each other and filament ripped.

    So I elongated an existing spool holder mod in OrcaSlicer and it works perfectly 🤓

  22. Got some filament samples to play with. This is Glow Galaxy and as the name implies, it's a glow in the dark filament, except it's mostly transparent with glowing glitter inside. It comes in many colors, I got blue and green. Can't wait to make something stupid out of it! #3dprinting #filament

  24. Does anyone know a brand of filaments that would have somewhat realistic array of skin toned PLA available? #3dprinting #filament

  26. Been working on some swings for geckos enclosures and my word.... The trials and tribulations of 3D printing.

  27. Today the new #3dprinter is supposed to be delivered. I just threw a spool of #filament into the dryer for a few comparison benchmark prints.

    Oh, now that I have an #infraredcamera I probably should point it at the beds of both, just to see what's happening there.

    Excited 😁

  31. Na toll, da geht mir an einem Feiertag für mein kleines Projekt das #Filament aus. Hat zufällig jemand in #Essen eine Rolle #PLA in Weiß übrig?

  32. I just discovered this awesome website. It's a 3D print #filament database with over 23,000(!!) filaments from over 800 brands!

  33. Modeled the cost of @GunplaMark’s “Filament Storage 2026” drybox system after watching his video: youtu.be/lJDoVH7qTKs

    Interactive cost model:
    salemdata.us/dev/filament-dryb

    Source (Forgejo):
    salemdata.net/repo/jlpoole/fil

    Key insight: 1 box ≈ $139, 4 ≈ $45, 12 ≈ $35 — bulk buying dominates cost.
