  A Keel haul should do it

  Abs needs an enclose vented to the outside, or really good ventilation. The ‘S’ in ABS stands for styrene, a fairly potent carcinogen and irritant. Do NOT print it in your living area as it off gasses while printing.

  All other plastics you can print on the A1 will be safer.

  I’ve printed plenty of different mid density tpu’s including random no name ones with generic profiles, using the Prusa Mini with its Bowden tube. It’s not always a no no.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What is your bath mat situation?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  My wife and I shower together, someone is getting out sopping wet because either the other one is still going or there’s just not enough room to both dry in the shower. Heated floor dries the bath mat just as well as the towel rail anyway

  It’s more about pressure than airflow. You just need negative pressure inside the chamber, so gas escapes into your chamber through the cracks, and out the vent.

  Saudis were happy to bankroll it to kill the main organisation platform behind the Arab Spring uprisings

  I prefer a 20db cut that’s flat across frequencys. Most audio engineer plugs like the etymotic range aim for that midpoint.

  If I’m chainsawing, it’s big muffling 30db cut earmuffs.

  I’ve been using these for years for concerts, gym classes and always take spares to festivals to give to friends. They are designed for an even 20db cut when listening to music. They have the same fit as the cheaper ER20 but the xs have clearer top end.

  I use them 3x a week and have a few pairs. They don’t last forever as the baffles get softer over time. At $40 they last me a year which is pretty good value.

  If it’s all the same driver board, they save on complexity of having different parts. I hate it but it’s true. Samsung gaming monitors now have to keep track of a remote to change settings.

  Will be interesting if they need the same thermal management that lithium packs do. That adds a fair amount of weight to the system
