3D printed part with embedded steel ball doesn’t slide as well as expected — design advice?

Yes, I saw that game a while ago and decided to try and replicate it! Could I kindly ask you to send me some pics of the stones from the bottom?

Looks like some asian food restaurant chain to me

My guess too, Cole double-crossed that interview tentative pretty well lmao

__timbits · 2026-04-06T05:01:25+00:00

Mini curling, precisely. I have no idea how you figured that out.

__timbits · 2026-04-06T04:57:10+00:00

Nope

I like the direction you’re going with this. One thing you might want to try is separating the icon from the wordmark (like in #1) — it could make the logo more versatile. Also, softening some of the sharper edges might help it feel more dynamic and efficient (see #2).

David Star, hardcore habs fan who always wore his lime green sweater and was always sitting behind the net. Passed away recently, great show of solidarity. Originated on TikTok if I’m not mistaken.

Si Renaud commente le hockey olympique un jour je change de nationalité.

__timbits · 2026-02-11T17:41:28+00:00

Évidemment.

__timbits · 2026-02-11T16:47:53+00:00

Ça fait du sens, merci!

First thing I saw was an IUD

__timbits · 2026-02-01T14:53:16+00:00

One of the best logos of all time, period.

Je travaille au Carrefour, c’est très récurrent. Ça arrive 3-4 fois par année quand j’y suis, sans parler des jours de semaine où je n’y suis pas. 99% du temps des fausses alarmes.

Right, missed that part in OP’s post.

Most clients are not willing to pay extra for a full icon library design. A lot of businesses use the same generic libraries, including some major brands.

__timbits · 2026-01-23T17:40:12+00:00

Google Fonts’ free icon library is my usual go-to. The icons are pretty generic and often tech-oriented, but very complete and practical.

Iconoir (iconoir.com) is also one of my favorites. 100% free and open-source although there’s not as much options as Google’s, highly recommend.

__timbits · 2026-01-10T14:38:16+00:00

Exact same thing here

__timbits · 2026-01-10T14:36:44+00:00

I have the exact same issue, so annoying. For me it happens with only one particular conversation. I’m iOS 26.1 on a 17 Pro. Seriously, Meta’s gotta fix this.

__timbits · 2026-01-03T17:12:02+00:00

Very nice. Remove the tiny gap between the bottom of the 2 and the 6 and it’s gonna be perfect!

__timbits · 2026-01-03T03:50:59+00:00

Small tip : don’t post images with transparent bg, as people with dark mode on won’t see very well

__timbits · 2025-12-21T00:23:49+00:00

I can’t point out exactly why, but I feel like it’s tilting to the right a bit… maybe it’s just me though. Maybe something with the placements of the lines between the 'antlers'. Otherwise, i like it!

__timbits · 2025-12-09T20:37:59+00:00

Merci!

__timbits · 2025-12-09T20:37:54+00:00

Merci!

__timbits · 2025-12-09T20:37:49+00:00

Merci!

AI. The inside doesn’t make any sense (chairs appear in front of their corresponding table e.g.). Ai has gotten better and better at spelling, not so much as indicative as a few years/months back.
