#Printables

Need a thing, make a thing.

Cobbling together some of those ubiquitous shelf pegs for #3Dprinting. Found some on #Printables, but I'm rarely satisfied with off-the-shelf designs.

Invariably I'll change a few cosmetic things, but also:

a) hobbyist 3D designers often don't chamfer their corners for cleaner and stronger prints.

b) Many have excessive vertices. Simpler is better for finding errors, accepting future mods and printing fast.

So some rework done. Test printing diff orientations.

Did #Prusa get hacked? Who the frog is tred-inc.com?

I am NOT a seller on #Printables. I use a unique e-mail address for Prusa only – so if there was a leak it MUST be at Prusa's.

When I log into my Prusa Account there's no hint linked to this e–mail. If it was official I would've expected a link to Prusa's site.

Just started my first print using the #Prusa3D #EasyPrint cloud slicing thingy and it was actually... fine. Just a simple enclosure for an ESP32, didn't need any fancy settings or modifications and it was quick and clean. It probably won't be my "daily slicer" but I can definitely see how it can be helpful in some situations (and I will probably continue to use it in situations where I just need to print something quickly from #Printables). #3dprinting

I do realize that, unlike me, most of you are not creating mixtapes on cassette in this year of 2025, and even if you are, they're probably not Fallout related, like mine, but on the very very small chance that you are, I have created a printable sticker sheet with cassette labels that you can use here:

Or maybe you'd just like your other mixtapes to look cooler, I dunno. Please note that the page is smaller than 8.5x11, since most printers force margins on letter sized paper. Make sure to print at 100%. Also, I ran out of ideas after coming up with 4 sets, so there are two computer desktop-related sets at the bottom. I'll add a note on my Printables page on the website later, along with the files for the J-card in case anyone wants to make their own.

3D Printers, I’m debating my workflow for publishing models that I’ve designed and I’m curious…

When downloading multi-part assemblies for printing, where do you go first to get a model and would you rather download each piece individually or a complete model you can split in the slicer?
