3dprinting

I forgot to put back the metal plate on my Anycubic Kobra 2 and pressed print. Managed to stop it relatively quickly but still damaged the heating surface a bit and it chipped away some of the material as you can see. How fucked am I?

I created this clip for my local makerspace, because I didn’t find one that suited all our needs. Therefore it’s already tried and tested by tens of people....

Here’s a small update to my bento box building log....

I got a P1S for my family as an early Christmas present. I’m interested in creating parts that may eventually be used in cars, so I’m trying to get things ready for full-time ABS and ASA production....

Hey, this is my first Printables contest entry - large (16 inch/40 cm) christmas balls that print in multiple pieces. They can be assembled is hollow frameworks, or around a playground ball for extra color.

Hello! I am a former anycubic mega s victim, got it gifted by a friend(because he didn’t use it) and got sucked into the rabbithole of 3d printing. Printed a few parts after calibrating and cleaning it up, but then got punched in the face with onslaught of problems that dont make sense. Tried to fix 'em all, but in result just...

The legs broke as always but now I just glue the pieces in and it’s fine!

In my day our memes were in two dimensions, which was the style at the time...

I have been printing with PETG on glass for a little while now, and have gone through almost an entire roll. Yesterday I had my first print stick so hard that it delaminated the glass :(. I stopped using hairspray as it made the prints not stick at all, and printing bare glass was just fine. But something about yesterdays print...

Probably the most satisfying print so far....

Some parts reattached in the corners as you can see, i’m assuming because they managed to peel off the fep there down the line....

I’m thinking of getting the Bambu Labs P1S, anything that I should be aware of? Anybody got one? Thoughts?

Want to keep your filament dry while you print, but too cheap to shell out for a dry box? Make your own! My house goes through Tidy Cat tubs at a rapid rate, and they seal pretty well. I was using a PVC pipe structure on the inside, but I think these skate bearing roller stands will work better. Throw in a few desiccant...

I’ve been running my Creality CR6 SE (kickstarter edition) for a few years now, and now considering an upgrade to add to the fleet. But I’m way out of the loop on what would be a good robust and reliable option these days. Would love some recommendations on what to look for in a new printer, and maybe which printers the...

Ok, so I know nothing about 3d printing, but since we became empty nester, am looking for a new hobby. My wife us taking up pottery, but thats not for me, and 3d printing seems like a good bit of fun....

Are consumer level 3D printers able to print plastic objects of similar quality to ones produced using injection molding? Or is 3D printing useful mostly for the prototyping stage before a design is finalized and a steel mold is produced for injection molding?

Hi, I’m new to printing. I got myself a Kobra 2 and it was printing fine when I got it. But recently it started to knock the prints off at random times. I have done several recalibrations, adjusted the Z offset up and down. What I have noticed is that all of these models seem to have a small overflow of material which I’m...

Got lazy but have posted once about my Extruder being the reason why Octoprint or Firmware is not starting the Print....

Right, so at a glance alot of the posts here are for FDM printing, and while I love my Ender 3 and have no problems with it (anymore…) I really want to get into resin printing. I have a 2 year old Elegoo Mars 2 Mono that I’ve used a handful of times, because each time I try to print a test model instead of something that...
