General 3D printing chit chat

I went for the Sparky2000™

It does live streams and all sorts :smiley:

Even offers handy cooking advice sometimes too.

Just over 2 hours to print this, mega chuffed with how it turned out

It took me 5 hours to get this :man_facepalming:

Glass bed?

I’ve been using the one that came with my lowly Ender 3 and have never had any trouble with it but, you know, upgrades! :grin:

Octoprint new release 1.9.0

Not done a live print for a bit

Enjoy :smile:

Where’s the GADC Mug ? :scream:

what we printing?

Goggles 2 lens cap

Printing a flight controller cover.

Taking inspiration from @Sparkyws and figured I’d share a live link to my printer.

Its a Creality Ender 7 Core X/Y Modded with a BLTouch and solid bed mounts rocking a pi4 with octoprint.

Enjoy :slight_smile:

Something is wrong with your printer.

I can’t see a GADC sticker anywhere :blush:

oh my printer is GADC stickered up, but unfortunately with the way my camera is mounted unless you make a smaller bespoke sticker the size of the ender logo on my printhead I can’t fit it into the live unfortunately.

but here is a photo of the said sticker:

So I went all technical and designed a box. Yep, a box. Go me. So set it all up… Told it to print. IT IS NOT PRINTING A BLOODY BOX… I got a triangle border and now it is printing what looks like the letter L. ??? Now I just want to leave it going to see what it comes out with. One of the first times it has printed first time without not sticking and it is no way near what I thought I had designed. The last thing I did had hinges and that worked. For the love of printing… I just wanted a box lol

It does look like quite a nice L though.

It stopped… Warming bed up to assist in the removal of my box… I mean L
