- Comment on How to dry silica gel 2 days ago:
I microwave mine on 30-40% power (in an 800w unit) for 20-30min, stir and give it another 20-30min. That usually restores them to a dry state and doesn’t cause issues with overheating them.
- Comment on Sortable Table view with $/TB for serverpartdeals.com 1 week ago:
It’s a US based company, and judging by your use of Euro I’m guessing you’re in Europe…it’s expensive to import stuff from the US, that shipping cost probably also covers VAT. Check out serverahop24.de if you’re in Europe
- Comment on Printing minis on an FDM printer 1 week ago:
I have switched out the fan duct and heat block (to use normal volcano) on mine as the only HW changes, and then I’ve flashed the main board with klipper. Using klipper has been a crazy step up in printing quality over the stock firmware because it gave me the control needed to do a proper tuning of my printer.
- Comment on Printing minis on an FDM printer 1 week ago:
I mean, they’re definitely good enough for me but resin does give much better fine details. But I also mainly use my printer for functional prints, this is just a nice addition to it’s uses.
- Comment on Printing minis on an FDM printer 1 week ago:
I’m pretty happy with the goblin and skeleton, the orc’s bow is a little wonky at the top because my layer time was too short for my printers cooling. None of these has had any post processing done yet, printed without any supports also 0.2mm nozzle and 0.08mm layer height.
I think I’ll try printing a sort of “buffer tower” next time to increase layer time on prints with pointy tips and see if it helps.
- Comment on Printing minis on an FDM printer 1 week ago:
Yeah i probably could, there’s definitely some supports that were not needed that I could have avoided…but for fully auto-generated supports I think it did a pretty good job.

- Comment on Budget-friendly Sovol SV08 Max redefines large-format 3D printing with Insane 700 mm/s speeds 1 week ago:
Jesus fucking Christ buddy, calm down you crazy bastard…
- Comment on Budget-friendly Sovol SV08 Max redefines large-format 3D printing with Insane 700 mm/s speeds 1 week ago:
You state theres a 30% increase in travel speed…but there isn’t, it’s literally the exact same speed as the normal sv08.
Are you comparing to some random other printer from another manufacturer?
- Comment on Budget-friendly Sovol SV08 Max redefines large-format 3D printing with Insane 700 mm/s speeds 1 week ago:
The regular sv08 also has 700mm/s max so I’m not sure where you’re getting the 30% increase from

They’re not really available where i live though
- Comment on Open Source CAD In The Browser 2 weeks ago:
AFAIK there’s only FreeCAD, but it is very different to work with so be prepared to relearn a lot of workflows.
- Comment on miniature figurines filament? 2 weeks ago:
I mostly print large functional parts, so FDM is the best solution for that, and I just happen to also use it for printing minis because I already have it. I don’t have work space free for resin printing too, with all the extras it needs for handling and curing.
- Comment on miniature figurines filament? 2 weeks ago:
ASA i have, because i have en enclosed printer worh filter…but i dont have space handling resin or vapour smoothing (like I said)
- Comment on miniature figurines filament? 2 weeks ago:
So far they’ve just used fine-point acrylic markers directly on the PLA, but it doesn’t quite cover properly. I’ll try the plastic primer 👍
- Comment on miniature figurines filament? 2 weeks ago:
I really don’t want to deal with resin, I don’t have room for a proper safe workstation for it.

- Comment on Is the ‘tech bro-ification’ of abortion here? 2 weeks ago:
Yeah it’s absolutely insane…I searched for an app just yesterday by exact name, and it still didn’t crack the top 20 reaults
- Comment on Is the ‘tech bro-ification’ of abortion here? 2 weeks ago:
We need to figure out how to get it higher up on the Play Store’s search results rather than it being impossible to discover at something like #40 on that list
You pay…no way around that. Google has rigged the search in the store, you will never get a good search location unless you pay.
- Comment on Bambu Lab Controversy Deepens: Firmware Update Sparks Backlash 2 weeks ago:
It’s not just smaller, it also has limitations in materials it can print because it’s not an enclosed printer. The core one can print ABS/ASA much more reliably, PC, Nylon and other fancy stuff the A1 just can’t. Their motion systems are also completely different as the core one uses coreXY and the A1 is coreXZ (aka. bedslinger).
- Comment on Bambu Lab Controversy Deepens: Firmware Update Sparks Backlash 2 weeks ago:
They’re not comparable printers though, you should be comparing the Prusa core one to the Bambi P1-series. The Bambu P1-series is still less than half of course.

I usually just freehand them…that seems to work well without this tool
- Comment on Apple announces iOS 26 with Liquid Glass redesign 3 weeks ago:
It’s what happens when they run out of useful things to improve but still need to announce something to make people think they’re getting an upgrade.
- Comment on China's electric cars are becoming slicker and cheaper - but is there a deeper cost? 3 weeks ago:
Not quiet, the difference is in how excessive it is with Chinese industry compared to VC backed capitalist counterparts.
- Comment on China's electric cars are becoming slicker and cheaper - but is there a deeper cost? 3 weeks ago:
The cost seems pretty obvious TBH…they’re subsidising their car industry to a much higher degree than European and American countriesin order to achieve a greater marker share and by extension control of large foreign car consumer markets.
There’s of course also the general increased security risk of the Chinese government being plugged in to all the companies making these cars with black box software and always connected to the internet.
- Comment on 3D Printing A Modular Guitar Means It Can Look Like Whatever You Want 3 weeks ago:
Got some spare filament
This seems to use quite a significant amount of filament, it would probably be hard to make from leftover spool scraps from other projects.

No i use that too, works well and it’s cheap.

Diacetyl rest benefits from increased temps, also kveik can be fun to use at high temps.
- Comment on Korea’s POSTECH develops sub-millimeter waveguide to shrink AR glasses 4 weeks ago:
AR that just doesn’t suck ass would be welcome even without price drops. We’ve had some projects where we tried to use AR glasses for interactive maintenance assistance. They died not because of bulky gear but because resolution and clarity was absolutely shit.
- Comment on Treadmill modded into giant 3D printer with an endless print bed size — taking 3D print sizing to the extreme 4 weeks ago:
That still leaves a lot of constraints on print geometry though because it will have limited reach over previously printed areas.
