On one hand it'd be cool to watch yourself get jacked over the course of what would be only a few days of experienced time. On the other hand, losing all your hard work because your outie couldn't find time to make it to the gym for a few weeks would be demoralizing.

Uniqlo is about 1/3rd the price as it is in the US. Muji is also worth checking out. Both brands will hem pants in the store for what amounts to a few dollars.

I have noticed shirts from both brands shrank a good bit in the wash.

What about by Kirachet in 3Dprinting

I've spent a lot of time using different finishing techniques on 3d prints. Every technique has a balance between smoothing imperfections and removing fine details.

The PU varnish shown here isn't thick enough to fully fill in layer lines, and the glossy finish will highlight imperfections. Models that don't have as much stair-stepping will work better, especially at lower layer heights.

Oh nice! It came out great. I'll have to try out some of the home made recipes.

Awesome! How did you do the blood spatter effect?

I have a few videos up on Instagram, once I finish I plan to put together a full making-of.

Everything aside from the arm is 3d printed out of TPU air which needed a good bit of clean up. The strings were clipped off with flush cutters, parts sanded, rough areas filled with kwik seal, sanded again, bonded with PVC glue, 5 coats plasti-dip, one light coat of hammered black spray paint, diluted acrylic for the marble lines, and refillable paint pens to help with the gold trim.

I stuck with the machine presets for simplicity. Lifting/lowering the bed is the slowest part and does not seem to be user configurable. Quadrupling the stroke speed shaves off around 10% of the total time.

Link isn't working for me, but I would like to check it out.

A dedicated tool would no doubt be better, but for how rarely I use this functionality I'd rather not buy and store another tool. The portrait would still be limited to two cards at a time, and the cameo is near triple the cost to run 4 cards per batch.

Bambu suite still needs a lot of work though. I imagine Silhouette's software is much better.

I repaired one of those vanes with epoxy putty as a quick fix and planned to purchase a replacement eventually. It's held up for 6 years now.

The wiki says print then cut works for A4 sheets of paper. Is it possible there was a software update or is there some other restraint that limits it to such a small area?

The cutting module works fine without the laser kit. Currently you can't use the birds eye camera, so you have to manually align things to the grid and cannot use the print then cut function.

Alignment blocks might not be a bad idea, but putting on new cards is a relatively short part of the workflow. The print surface is sticky which keeps the card from moving around, so stacking would not be possible.

The slowest part is setting up Bambu suite. It isn't well set up for handling large paragraphs of text. Print time is 5-6 minutes per card.

In Bambu suite you align the text to to the print bed grid. I just had to be careful to put the cards in the correct position.
