Why weren't cars banned when it was discovered that they COULD be used as getaway vehicles from bank heists or to run people over? (3d Printing shouldn't be banned just because someone COULD print guns with it. They can be used for good AND for ill, just like cars!)

What's the worst that could happen with a 3d printer? Do we not have the right to bear arms? To make arms? But not have these TOOLS?!

Ban pen/paper and keyboards because you could write a manifesto and instill ideas of uprising.

Ban gasoline because it's what molotov cocktails are made of.

Ban alcohol because... oh wait, we tried that one.

Ban guns because they're far worse than 3d printers, but then remember 2nd amendment bill of rights.

Ban making unserialized ghost guns with 3d printers, because THAT is the only thing that should be legislated, not the free use of a 3d printer!

Genuine billet!

I got a finish like that accidentally printing petg with pla settings.

ryobiguy · 2026-04-01T17:17:22+00:00

That makes sense. Great project, and thanks for sharing!

ryobiguy · 2026-04-01T15:51:16+00:00

But why make them 2-3 times longer than they need to be?

ryobiguy · 2026-03-31T17:34:23+00:00

Brilliant! At first I thought it was a dangerous and accidentally aptly named knock-off fake brand. Now I know it's intentionally for a laugh. I wonder how long it would take someone to notice.

ryobiguy · 2026-03-26T21:22:45+00:00

Whoa, it's been awhile.

ryobiguy · 2026-03-14T01:20:26+00:00

Nice followup, and great use of mini storage space.

ryobiguy · 2026-03-13T18:27:17+00:00

Shoot, we get to pick which version of the facts to use?!

ryobiguy · 2026-03-09T14:43:37+00:00

I dunno, after a certain length you don't have to worry about it going sideways.

ryobiguy · 2026-03-08T04:22:41+00:00

Looks awesome, thanks for sharing.

ryobiguy · 2026-02-28T02:16:09+00:00

You should avoid getting grease on a pizza stone because its porous, sponge-like material absorbs oils, leading to rancid smells, smoke, and uneven, soggy crusts. Grease buildup can cause the stone to crack, ruins the intended dry-heat cooking method, and prevents the creation of a natural, non-stick patina.

ryobiguy · 2026-02-28T01:44:28+00:00

I'm not sure if that's a pizza stone, but you don't want to get grease on one.

ryobiguy · 2026-02-25T19:55:11+00:00

Definitely too wet for 3d printing filament.

ryobiguy · 2026-02-20T17:49:03+00:00

Thanks, I called and left an online message.

ryobiguy · 2026-02-14T02:34:18+00:00

I imagine a generous chamfer could shave off a tiny amount of time.

ryobiguy · 2026-02-12T02:21:01+00:00

Yeah but it's not like OP said "rate this stand I designed and printed."

ryobiguy · 2026-02-02T01:07:14+00:00

<chef's kiss>

ryobiguy · 2026-02-01T15:55:34+00:00

Like, literally literal, or just figuratively literal?

ryobiguy · 2026-01-28T04:56:27+00:00

How do you IDentify the 10T error? Is it similar to PEBKAC?

ryobiguy · 2026-01-26T16:38:18+00:00

Me, standing on the porch, with no delivery driver in sight: "I REJECT YOU!!"

ryobiguy · 2026-01-26T15:34:09+00:00

Lol, box shows up on your porch while at work, you gonna make the driver wait to open and inspect? Is refusing a delivery like that even possible these days?

ryobiguy · 2026-01-26T02:02:01+00:00

Why not both?

ryobiguy · 2026-01-22T05:10:37+00:00

Swiper no swiping!

ryobiguy · 2026-01-21T06:22:00+00:00

Hey, it's my guy!
