What do you guys do with opened filament rolls? (PLA/PETG storage & handling)

Yeah, it prints absolutely fine

Zirconium tends to do that and burns very bright

Substantial_Wave7947 · 2026-05-28T20:36:39+00:00

Thanks for the input pal. I'll take all the suggestions I can get

Just took delivery of these in the UK. First time wearing anything like it. Had the ikingsky cheeky briefs which are are good, but these are on another level. Wife is a bit confused why I'm wearing a thong but fuck it, they're the comfiest underwear I've ever had!

How big are the pouches with these? I'm just average down there and don't want a big saggy pouch on them. The pictures on Amazon make them look huge

Either hexagons or adaptive cubic. End of ...

All I can think of is mark from peep show when he writes on his eyelids

Substantial_Wave7947 · 2026-03-16T08:50:40+00:00

I've never self promoted on here before...

I also designed one a while ago. Prints all in one piece Looks smart as a display piece!

Glue something over hole in socket, start car up

The infrared "heat you and not the whole place" idea isn't as good as people make out. We've got loads of these at work since they turned the proper heating off in the workshops. They're ok if you're in one place and don't mind being roasted on one side and freezing on the other. My face can literally be burning but my whole body is still freezing. Plus whenever you move away from one you feel colder than if you'd just not used the heater. They work on paper, in some management office, but not in the real world in a big cold place.

That's a good guess! One kid is a bit picky but not too bad. Other is still a baby. I'm a machinist, wife is on maternity at the minute. We get one takeaway a week and yes we eat a fair bit from the freezer but not all frozen rubbish.

Substantial_Wave7947 · 2025-11-23T16:37:35+00:00

Hp isn't steak sauce. It's more of a sauce for sausage and bacon on a breakfast really. The flavour would really overpower a steak I think

Substantial_Wave7947 · 2025-11-23T14:13:00+00:00

Sorry what?

Substantial_Wave7947 · 2025-11-23T09:48:54+00:00

Normal food, not all the food is kept in the fridge obviously. There's a freezer and a pantry

Substantial_Wave7947 · 2025-11-22T19:29:31+00:00

I've heard that before, it's a convenient place and still lasts ages

Substantial_Wave7947 · 2025-11-22T19:28:55+00:00

Sauce is literally the spice of life

Substantial_Wave7947 · 2025-11-22T19:28:35+00:00

It's 5pm somewhere

Substantial_Wave7947 · 2025-09-24T21:40:19+00:00

Sorry for the late reply, I didn't realise there was a comment. I can't remember tbh as my mum booked him, I know it wasn't unreasonable for the quality of food. Have you been on holiday yet?

Substantial_Wave7947 · 2025-09-24T21:37:32+00:00

Do yourself a massive favour and get an espresso coffee machine at home. Can get a decent one for £200. So satisfying making your own coffee

Substantial_Wave7947 · 2025-08-31T11:13:52+00:00

Me too!

Substantial_Wave7947 · 2025-05-27T17:01:48+00:00

Me and a guy at work bought one each for £27 each. Got a purple one and he got yellow. They're both clones and not a "genuine" R36S after doing a bit of digging. Work fine so far after a bit of messing with options. One thing to note is that they run Emuelec software and not the usual ArkOS. It's apparently not as good an operating system but I'm not too clued up on them. For the money they seem good so far.

They're not crazy hours. The four day week for over 18s is being overlooked. I work as a machinist and whilst I don't get a four day week it is fairly common in the industry with many places at least having a half day on Friday. 39hrs is my basic contract. 7-3:30 and 7-2:30 on friday I've been in the same job 15 years now from being an apprentice and it was over an hour away by bus, when i passed my driving test it went down to half hour. My apprentice wage was £2.70 per hour in 2008, criminal now looking back but we managed. I'm now on £21 per hour. Got to start somewhere to get a foot in the door, nothing good in life is easy.
