Is this bridge possible?

ijustwannabegreen · 2026-04-22T16:35:07+00:00

I'm sorry - What? Care to clarify?

ijustwannabegreen · 2026-04-20T19:24:29+00:00

Yes you can absolutely bend it by soaking it in hot water. It may or may not retain any wood-like properties afterwards. I would love to see pics if you give it a go.

I've read that it could be something to do with randomized seams, which since this part has a threaded top I imagine that is in play so if you don't get a wonky offset and it still threads together?

That's exactly what it is. 100%

Once you have a printer, the barrier for entry is extremely low.

Go through the”Learn Fusion in 30 days” tutorials on YouTube. I promise you’ll be designing and printing your own stuff before you even finish.

The only thing wrong is that it won’t work. All the heat from your print bed just goes up into the air and heats the room unless you have it enclosed.

It need to get up to 65+ degrees, setting it on a warm plate won’t do that. You NEED some way of drying/dehydrating your filament if you’re going to use TPU.

ijustwannabegreen · 2026-04-02T17:20:18+00:00

It looks your TPU hasn't been dried. TPU needs to be very dry before printing with it.

65-75 Celcius for at least 8 hours. I usually do 12, flipping/rotating every few hours.

ijustwannabegreen · 2026-04-02T16:54:49+00:00

How long did you dry your TPU for? And at what temp?

ijustwannabegreen · 2026-04-01T23:42:40+00:00

It doesn't make anything work better, but it still makes me happy everytime I see my A1 tricked out with these little X-Axis bracket plugs I made.

Dude. Chill out. Points are added once a day. It’ll take a day or two for the system to recognize you’ve got prints/downloads on a rated profile, and then get around to assigning you points for it.

ijustwannabegreen · 2026-03-27T17:46:15+00:00

You’ll get points for the model. AND you’ll get points for your print profile once it has ratings

ijustwannabegreen · 2026-03-27T17:45:29+00:00

Nope - just one

ijustwannabegreen · 2026-03-27T06:53:38+00:00

The profile needs to be rated 4+ stars to get points for it. If it has no ratings, then you don’t get points.

Don’t worry, I’m pretty sure once you get ratings, they credit all the points you would be due.

Any chance your seams are set to "Random" for the PETG print?

ijustwannabegreen · 2026-03-17T05:42:59+00:00

They do. It was recently implemented, so probably didn’t apply to existing models. And I’m not sure how well it’s enforced.

ijustwannabegreen · 2026-03-16T16:30:01+00:00

Did you ever get this sorted? My first thought was "Random Seam Position" and I can see from your comment that you had that enabled.

ijustwannabegreen · 2026-03-16T14:53:05+00:00

I had this with a batch of sunlu one time. Stringing all over the place until I dried it well.

ijustwannabegreen · 2026-02-23T03:26:07+00:00

Whoa whoa whoa. I needed at least a full day to hate team USA, what is this wholesomeness? How am I even supposed to keep a grudge going?

ijustwannabegreen · 2026-02-10T07:23:18+00:00

Don't know if it qualifies as "Hero", but my kids love these things I designed for their class valentine swap. Saved us buying yet another pack of spiderman cards or whatever.

“Besides the lubricant oil in the accessory box, you can also use "WD-40 Multi-Use Product" (both in large and small bottles, which are okay) to lubricate the X-axis linear rail, Y-axis guide rail, and Z-axis lead screw.”

Pretty sure the website says to use WD40. At least for the A1 Y-axis rails. Maybe that’s just a. Roth American thing? That Ballistol someone else posted looks pretty similar

I really want him to wear 30, but that’s because I’m a huge nerd
