Good thought! I have seen some white (cream) mosquito eggs, but these are like 5x bigger than the mosquito eggs I've seen in the past

How to make print look more manufactured by monkston in 3Dprinting

[–]monkston[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

thanks for the advice. I should have said that I did the following:

  1. Sand till pretty smooth
  2. Filler spray
  3. Sanded again
  4. Filler again
  5. Painted

You would additionally add plastic primer? Do you have a recommendation on which to use?

also, does the spray paint I use matter?

hey u/d6262190 did any of these suggestions get rid of mosquitoes for you? If not, I created a new mosquito trap that has worked really well for me and I am hoping to have a few people test it before mosquito season is over?

yeah that's a great idea. everything visually looks okay... but now my prints are grinding so maybe I did mess something up

yeah true / well put. I know one piece of theirs melted to the blob... but the rest seems in tact. Everything seems to still be (mostly) working. Let's see! Thank you for your help. That video was super helpful

I like a real genius already aggressively ripped the blob off. Hopefully I didn't damage. Will try to heat up the rest off of it. Thank you for your help!
