NAB 🇬🇧🇪🇺🔶:marmite:<p>Been battling with the new <a href="https://mastodon.me.uk/tags/prusa" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>prusa</span></a> printer - never quite happy with the print quality using Prusament filament with Prusa Slicer and the correct Prusament profile.<br>After having fiddled with setting after setting, it turned out it was all down to retraction and the incredibly optimistic setting in the profile. Final tweak and print quality is up where I'd expect it.</p><p><a href="https://mastodon.me.uk/tags/3dprint" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>3dprint</span></a></p>

Jan Schiefer<p>I love listening to the soft crackles of a PETG print detaching itself from the Satin PEI sheet on my printer. Great adhesion while it is printing, not attached at all after cooling down.

The ASA is incredibly tough. I can bend the smallest one with both hands but not the larger versions! They should be pretty much indestructible, plus ASA is very UV-resistant, along with temperature and humidity...

I've been crocheting for almost 13 years, and I've never bothered with anything fancier than a cereal bowl for my yarn. But our family recently got a 3D printer, so I asked for the yellow peg thing for a project involving colourwork. I like this peg thing because it's modular and expandable. I'm also getting a yarn bowl printed, and giving the cereal bowl back to be a cereal bowl.

Nefarious Aryq<p>Printed out a vase with the color-change filament I bought earlier this week. The first one was in “vase mode” (single wall) so it didn’t use up enough filament to reach the color-change and was all a single color. Still pretty. Re-printed it with actual walls to make it sturdier and to use more filament so the color-change would show up. Very cool!</p><p>Filament: Cookiecad Silk PLA - Mermaid</p><p>Model: <a href="https://makerworld.com/en/models/114898-vase" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">makerworld.com/en/models/11489</span><span class="invisible">8-vase</span></a></p><p><a href="https://hoosier.social/tags/3DPrinting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>3DPrinting</span></a> <a href="https://hoosier.social/tags/3DPrint" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>3DPrint</span></a> <a href="https://hoosier.social/tags/3DPrintet" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>3DPrintet</span></a> <a href="https://hoosier.social/tags/3DPrinted" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>3DPrinted</span></a> <a href="https://hoosier.social/tags/3DPrints" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>3DPrints</span></a></p>
