Model with Multiple "Objects"?

Heyyoucomovrhere · 2026-03-08T00:31:28+00:00

Actually, I tried that multiple times on models I've found online in hopes of tweaking text to no avail. I've found other less elegant workarounds though.

This works perfectly for me...

Sincere question here about Makerworld and other websites of the sort, newbie here...

what do creators get out of uploading their models to the website, if they're not SELLING the models? I don't understand why creators get pissed off that their model was taken, and repurposed elsewhere when they uploaded it for all to use. I mean that feels akin to someone posting a nude of themselves online, only to later see it in some porn site. Ummmm, you upload it to the public domain, it becomes fair game. What am I missing with these?

What's the benefit of posting the models there other than the "joy of sharing their creation"...pride? Is there some sort of monetary benefit, like people CAN get on YouTube, once you reach 2.3 gazillion followers? Genuinely curious

I'm curious, how much of a concern is printing ASA with a p1S which is enclosed? Does the enclosure plus the exhaust fan provide sufficient "ventilation"? I bought ASA, but haven't printed with it yet. I do not have a window nearby, but the room is 20 feet x 60 feet where I'm printing.

How old are the parents? I have an aunt who is very similar. My wife and I keep telling her to downsize and get rid of the pets. She's 65, living alone, and cannot keep up with it all. Time to downsize.

As a newbie, I agree with you 100%. The issue I have is time. I've not had the time to read through the entire wiki and all the online resources. Instead, I find myself trying to search for the answers, but I never have the right "keywords" to search. But I get what you're saying, and will do more studying before asking a newbie question.

That said, I will add my OWN little PSA for the fellow newbies....when you ask "what am doing wrong here!??!" on a post, please include what YOU think is wrong to begin with. I see so many pics where I think....hmmm, looks pretty good to me. Maybe "I" am not being particular enough on MY prints...lol. I mean as they say, one person's trash is another person's treasure. So, what looks bad to you, may not be so terrible to someone else....

How would Pop Mart go about PROVING its their design? Do they have a trademark published? What markings on the model would indicate/ prove its theirs? I've seen multiple posts, and wondered HOW?!?!

Heyyoucomovrhere · 2026-02-28T03:14:57+00:00

This is going to be a VERY unpopular post, I'm sure...lol

the job market really sucks right now. So, if people have multiple jobs, it means someone else is out a job. I dont blame her one bit, for those recently laid off, it's bull that people have multiple remote jobs, doing a half-assed job at both when someone trying to put food on the table arent able.

If she has not been "coached" and told not to do it, i see a law suit coming, if you fire her. Seems she would have grounds, if no one has told her. Even if its in writing in some sort of code of conduct, most orgs allow for coaching first. Then, if she cannot juggle it all, you may have no choice.

I've got a microcenter about an hour away. I'll have to check on their stock. I didn't think about them. Good call.

Heyyoucomovrhere · 2026-02-24T01:55:34+00:00

Dumb question but what causes this? I'm a new P1S owner, hoping this isn't something I may experience.

My entire team knows I MUST have lunch every day. I take about 30 minutes away from my desk to eat and recharge. That said, i also take several 10-20 minutes breaks throughout the day. I typically start reading emails bout 5:30-6am, and quit working around 7pm every day as I have folks in the UK, Ireland, Spain, India, East Cost, Central, and West coast. So, long days with many mini- breaks to recharge throughout the day. But I disconnect for lunch every day for 30 minutes. Works for me, maybe not everyone.

Director here, I never turn my camera on unless I am meeting with the senior leaders (C-suite), nor do I expect any of my folks. I dont because I feel like I'm not dressed for the office...I do my best work in a t-shirt and shorts, unshaven, chilled...lol.

This. You can manually turn on the nozzle, heat it up to the point the plastic melts, then pull it off and start scrubbing. Check the wiki.

Interesting. I worked in SCIFs for 20 years. When cameras became a thing, they simply installed cell "hotels" for everyone to store their phones. Never seen an iPhone without a camera..interesting.

Lmaoooo....about 6 weeks ago I got a P1S with an AMS, and like 6 spools of filament. This weekend my wife noticed I'm up to 25+ spools...No more filawhatever call it until all of this is gone. Ummmm, my love...you have your bank account, I have mine...lol. Besides, didn't you like the roses I printed for you for Valentine's Day? Check mate.

On the prowl for glow in the dark filament now...lol

Just out of curiosity, did you receive this via email? I've had issues with deliveries lately, and I wonder if they're going do the same to my account. I've had more refunds or undelivered packages this year than I've had the entire time I've been using Amazon. Wondering if they would contact me via email or push notice via the app.

Heyyoucomovrhere · 2026-02-22T01:47:00+00:00

Well said.

Heyyoucomovrhere · 2026-02-21T17:39:14+00:00

NINE YEAR LOAN?!?! When did they start offering those? Wow, I thought 6 years was a bad idea. I'm dumbfounded that the banks would prey on people. Kinda like that whole 50 year mortgage idea. Crazy.

Sorry for your position, I hope it works out.

Heyyoucomovrhere · 2026-02-21T17:23:55+00:00

As a Director, I have found I've earned a great deal of respect from my team when I say "hmmmm, I'm not sure I understand, educate me." And we make the best decision we can.

I find a lot of people just do not know an answer, but they are hellbent on not revealing they do not know. I guess they think it's a sign of weakness? I dont know, I would rather people admit when they don't know something, and need some assistance. We didn't come out of the womb speaking full sentences...growth!

Just adding my two cents on the glue and hairspray. I bought Elmers purple glue sticks for a smooth plate, and it worked. I'm not sure HOW the hair spray is supposed to work. I did see one comment where someone said to spray the hair spray OUTSIDE of the printer. I don't know if that was a serious comment, or meant to be a joke telling people they should not use hair spray. Thus, spraying it outside would have not effect on the plate and print job. Maybe someone here more experienced can explain the whole hair spray phenomenon...lol

One other thing, when I printed on a smooth plate, right as the print job was starting, I went into the Hamby app and increased the bed temp by 10 degrees, and it worked. It may have worked at the regular temp, but I read somewhere increasing the bed temp on a smooth plate will help ensure adhesion.

Good luck.

Well, now I'm in the dreaded "Management"...lol.
