And your things still look like they were printed with solidified shit.
Comment on Don’t throw out those used coffee grounds—use them for 3D printing instead

The dried grounds were sifted with a standard kitchen strainer to remove large clumps and then mixed with xanthan gum and carboxymethyl cellulose powders, which serve a similar purpose to binders, stabilizers, and thickeners.
Yeah, so don’t throw out those used coffee grounds, just mix them with the carboxymethyl cellulose powder you probably have in the cupboard, and the leftover xantham gum you have laying around.

Both of those ingredients are cheap, and Xantham Gum in particular is used in gluten free baking recipes a lot.

its a thickener in sauces too, very handy and all natural despite the scary name

It being natural doesn’t mean anything, though. Plenty of naturally dangerous things out there…

it can also be used to make frappucinnos, since you’re already making coffee.
