Fusion 360 is a great entry level modeler because the system of drawing basic sketches and doing simple features like revolves and extrudes on them is very easy to pick up. edit: It just so happens to also be extremely powerful and work like the fancy schmancy software the pros use, so once you're good at it, you can do some pretty cool stuff.

If you heat treat your pla print it’ll probably last fine in the car

Geisladisk posted:Will varnished and painted PLA stand up to being left outside in the elements, or do I need a fancier material? If you heat treat it as well you should be fine. Toss it I a preheated 200 degree oven for 20 minutes, turn the oven off and let it cool down to room temperature in there. Should be fine after that.

sharkytm posted:That sounds... Expensive. Does it transfer the brass to the part? No, it burnishes the metal filament bringing out the shininess

surfacelevelstudd posted:the case you have your timer in is super slick. did you 3d print that, or buy it from somewhere? Humidity is definitely an issue for filament but you can build a closed system where the filament is stored in a box with lots of desiccant and travels through a bowden tube directly to the hot end. I can't remember where I saw the build but I'm sure someone else does.

aldantefax posted:Alright, I had to clear another jam and I spotted a tangle in the feed, so I have concluded: gently caress this filament. I have another spool of Prusament that I am going to use instead and that's going to be fine until I get more Prusament in the mail. I might try Hatchbox in the future, but I'll save the Protopasta PLA for if I have some kind of emergency. It's physically impossible to tangle filament in the factory when winding it so that's on you.
