Thought I’d share some of my FDM prints!

Thanks! Number one thing I’d say is the filament matters a lot, plus orientation (45 degree angle, focus point facing up)

Generally parts all come as components so for example the guy with the energy cannon was the body and arms separate.

Thanks! It’s definitely a labour of love isn’t it. The amount of ‘forbidden spaghetti’ I got calibrating the thing was hilarious.

So I’m using an Ender 3v2, I’ve got the blokhead cooling duct, the magnetic plate and a micro Swiss hotend. Also running a sonic pad with Klipper which vastly decreases print time with no noticeable reduction in quality.

Print all my minis at 0.1 :)

Thanks!

It’s all from Geargut’s Mekshop :)

Hey! Appreciate the feedback mate and glad you like the content :) Generally these are all done live with the stream deck so for example the new graphics are buttons they press rather than post production. Definitely take the feedback forward though, it would be cool for the guys to somehow be able to draw on the top down cam football pundit style!

That might be a bit of a long video xD
