ed a commercial dragonmodel for a friend and mistakenly assumes to be well designed. It's parts weren't even flat on the bad and gunked up my printhead with a big ball of molten plastic.

Smelled quite annoying too.

Cleaning it was a hassle.

Started by setting it to a 90°C and pulling off what I could.

Finally had to take everything apart and ended up cleaning it on my stove by heating it in boiling distilled water.

After drying and alcohol-cleaning, everything worked great again.

Chtěl jsem si navrhnout lepší (klasičtější) vláčkodráhové kolečko k Vlaku. Tak už navrhuju i podvozek k vlastnímu vagónku zcela mimo Vlak. Mám pocit, že čím víc práce mám, tím víc se jí vyhýbám a dělám úplně něco jiného.

Do you own a and like it? If so, I'd love to hear what printer and why. Boosts appreciated!

A year ago I started building first prototypes of a device that would be capable of calculating phases based on the historical Metonic cycle. The result was „Meton“, a 3D-printed lunar phase calculator. So if you need an moon machine, go ahead.

Or build it yourself, from oak and steel.

I don't know how many recyclers there have been so far. None of them have really succeeded yet. But I'm keeping my fingers crossed for them! 🤞🏻

First in about a year and a half!

I'm really happy with how well this came out, considering this is some absolute garbage tier PLA that's been in storage for over a year, and all I had to do was dry it out and fix the Z offset on my printer.

Who needs a Bambu when you've got Klipper? 😹

This week at Formnext I saw this small 3D printer. Not a bad idea to print upside down - no need for support!

I've been very busy this Summer preparing a new project: my Flixtour!
I'll be touring Germany to discover the communication towers (Fernsehtürme und Fernmeldetürme).

Then I will draw them and make different objects: 2D stickers, magnets, and 3D models to print! 😃

I already started with our local tower in Frankfurt, the Europa Turm (or Ginnheimer Spargel here 😁).

I've been testing my ideas, and experimenting with Krita and Blender to create my first 3D prints: tower and keychain!

Next tower will be the famous Berliner Fernsehturm 🤩

Stay tuned!

Pierwsza klamerka była za mała, więc zrobiłem drugą większą. Tym razem jest w niej więcej matematyki niż celowania na oko i suwmiarkę, ale o dziwo też się udało. :D

Kolejny krok to klateczka dla pszczelej mateczki… ;-)

I'll probably add this model to my "Spool Killer" List.
It is a pistachio opener, which I haven't been able to try out yet, due to being currently out of pistachios. See other two images and link.

I call any small, practical / useful a "Spool Killer" because they can be used to finish off a spool that doesn't have enough filament left to make anything that big. You can print a dozen or so of these little designs for friends that can be used in every day life. I'm sure I'll have more examples in the future.

Enjoy and share!

'After your departure, I hid myself into the moon's reflection. Consumed by a fish, I patiently awaiting this day in its belly. Now that a glimmer of hope has returned, I have returned. I, Yumigami, god of the moon, cover the Earth in pale moonlight.'

Turntable video of a 3D printed and handpainted model I made of Yumigami, a white hare/rabbit with red makings from Okami, holding a big kine to pound his mocchi that's on Yumigami's left. The kine is red with cloud and moon patterns.
