I was thinking about 3D printing guards just the other day. It might be worth doing

Springs underneath the seat.

Yea, I was looking while drawing it

From Dali The paintings by Taschen

Dali was so good.

Garden. They are pretty easy and straightforward, I’d recommend.

I got a thornless variety, which I guess helps.

Geez, Lemmy is popping off today

Freehand

Thanks for this post

I tend to agree with you on most points.

However, some other people have taken a more cautious approach. I think currently the censuses is leaning toward, best not to.

Good point on the mold.

I see your point about parts breaking apart being a concern.

How familiar are you with TPU? It’s quite durable and robust. It’s a plastic currently used in many dog toys. Between that and Part of me feels like TPU being a soft plastic that would minimize risk.

AI response for the heck of it.

TPU.

ABS is a beautiful filament, but it’s somewhat similar to PLA in its properties.

TPU I fun to play with and its flexibility offers different properties than PLA

Why?

Interesting, so best practice is to increase layer height for PETG. Seems good to know

How it’s looking from a distance:

Thank you

I might have to try some of this buildtak.

If I said I want to 3D my posterior and have a custom fitting chair would you believe me? For some things I think a bigger printer makes sense.

Also that, and it can mount 4 heads to print on a m^2 build area. There a couple of different reasons I’d like the giga to be in a solid state. Least of all the ability to crank out a lot of smaller parts on repeat is strategically important to me.

That’s not to say your argument doesn’t have merit. I’ve been finding that a lot of time can be saved splitting the parts and printing on smaller printers. The giga is a nice to have but not needed per se.
