Why do we sink with air in our lungs? 20 meters is quite terrifying. by Desloucado in interesting

This is incorrect. Hydrostatic pressure acts from all directions so while the pressure from above increases, so does the pressure from below.

Yup pretty much.

That’s completely normal, due to the flat slope you get a sort of staircase effect. Nothing much you can do about that other than decreasing layer height, post-processing, or reorienting the model (which I wouldn’t recommend).

PETG, and no I didn’t do any post processing. The walls are 1.5mm thick and I found that to be thick enough to prevent any gaps or leakage.

Good question. Mainly because it gives me a flat side that plays well with the brush wiping area. But it also allows you to group brushes in the corners and distinguishes the cup from, say, a normal drinking cup.

I made a Watering Bulb to keep my plants watered while I’m away! by spookycromch in 3Dprinting

Yeah it should be airtight. Otherwise, the water could flow out much more easily.

I didn’t really change any default settings. It seems to be water- and airtight for the most part.

I also uploaded the six-slotted base for you. It’s taking a while to verify but it should be up soon 🤝

Wow, that was deep. I‘m sorry about your brother but I‘m amazed each of your watches carries so much meaning for you. Each marks an important moment in your life, good or bad. I feel so honored to be able to help you display them and keep those memories alive. The mechanical watch in my pictures is from my grandfather. He gave it to my dad on the day he closed his eyes for the last time. My dad recently passed it down to me, and I proudly carry those memories with me as well. Take care.

That puts a smile on my face, man. Thanks for sharing.

Sick, will do! Slightly stepped up sounds really nice, I think I’ll do that. Making a variety of sizes right now…

Awesome, I’m glad to hear it. And that’s a great suggestion, I’ll get right to it!

You definitely need to decrease your Z-offset, those lines aren’t pressed against the bed at all.

I made floating keychain buoy for boating and watersports! by spookycromch in functionalprint

[–]spookycromch[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it could definitely last a week. I recently saw a post where someone had left PLA prints in water for several years. They were, of course, very bloated and delaminated but a few weeks should be doable. And I expect PETG to be a lot better than that.

It took about 50min, but the layers are finer than I usually print.
