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 🤓

Finished my new keyboard! it’s an evolution of my old keyboard with some function keys and media keys moved to the top right so I stop pressing mute instead of ctrl! It is a little taller than I like but the design I layered so I think I can shave off at least 5mm without too much hassle (probably more!)

Prusament PETG Matte Black doesn't seem to age well. Just opened a year-old, vacuum-sealed spool that I had stored away. Despite drying it for five hours, the extrusion was almost foam-like. 🤔

I had fantastic printing results when I first bought these spools, so something must have changed with the material over the past year.

Prusament PETG "Matte Black" is my favourite black filament so far. Objects look gorgeous, and the matte finish disguises 3D printing artefacts.

One big downside: The filament seems highly flammable (test it!). It burns almost like a sparkler, and it is tough to put out.

Usually, PETG is very safe regarding flames; it does melt but does not readily catch fire. Adding a flame retardant would be a sensible thing.
