if you're just reusing the packets that came with the spool, they're probably saturated and not doing anything

Javid posted:Do I need to run them through my dehydrator or something? (Spools or packets, really) Yes, but if you're serious about it, get this so you'll know when to: https://www.amazon.com/Dry-Desiccan...29065455&sr=8-3 You can print containers for it, preferably out of clear filament so you can see the color better. Also, in my experience, the silica gel lasts longer in an airtight tote than it did when I was using freezer bags.

xilni posted:Does the brim functionality in Prusa slicer do the same thing? I've been looking into using it for my next attempt and it sounds similar. Yes, but I suggest mouse ears because a: You can add them only to the ends where they're actually needed b: Mouse ears are physically stronger than brims (brims peel off easily while mouse ears must be cut)

My employer has been approached by a new printer maker, "FabMinds", to develop a phone app. This would be a combination printer store, filament store, 3D model repository and store, printer controller and slicer. It will finally usher in the era of 3d printing for the masses. lol

Chainclaw posted:edit: For colors (especially if you're painting), do people still avoid black filament? Last time I was heavily ordering plastic, everyone discouraged using black because concerns about manufacturing quality across the board. It looks like it's probably less true now that so many manufacturers pushing their manufacturing precision so hard. Black seems fine, what causes problems for me is white

The composters also don't want it because it takes too long to degrade, doesn't contribute any nutrients, and probably contains unknown additives

InternetJunky posted:I've been running into this particular issue a few times recently -- when I print super thin parts (ie. bowstrings or arrows) in resin the thin part warps very badly after it's all processed. Sometimes it straightens back again after drying, but other times it never does. Any advice/tips on what to do in these cases? I'd like to point out that this bow's limbs are not bent as they should be, making the string comically long, also the draw length is way too long, the artist should fix this

what are you going to do with the lid, have it take up space elsewhere instead of on the pritner where it fits perfectly?
