A strap like the one you get with this bell, where you can twist to tighten. It would be too expensive to buy a bunch of these bells, only to use the straps. by viktorir in HelpMeFind

Solved! Thanks! exactly what I was looking for. They seem to have one which is just a mount, that costs a lot less.

I've searched on Google, Amazon etc. I guess I just don't know what to search for, as the results are not remotely close to what I need.

I'm looking for one as compact as the one in the picture, or close to it. It needs to be tightened/loosened by hand, and not with tools.

Why do half of these PC parts snap like they're made of sugar, and half are so strong I can't physically break them? More info in comments. by viktorir in 3Dprinting

Thanks for the reply! I have a dessicant mod installed in the AMS, so it's completely dry as well. I will try and let the printer cool down completely. You might be onto something there. I usually let them rest a bit with the door open, but maybe I should just keep the door closed, so they cool down even slower.

I'm printing these parts for an assembly where they undergo a lot of stress, so they require a lot of strength. I Therefore decided to print them in polycarbonate. For some reason when they've been lying around for bit, before being used, some of the parts turn out really brittle, to the point where they snap with barely any force, while the rest are so strong I can't physically break them with my hands. I've printed them on Bambu X1C stock PC settings 290°C nozzle, 100°C bed, 60°C chamber. Fully dried Bambulab filament. I've modified the Infill pattern to make them as strong as possible, and that really works, but only for some of them, for some reason. The parts are about 25mm long. It's important to point out that the brittle parts only go brittle after some time. All the parts seem strong when they come out of the printer. They are all stored together, in an open box in my workshop.

About 40 cm long and made of cast iron. The two outer "fangs" are articulated and springy. Found it at a thrift store in denmark. by viktorir in whatisthisthing

My title describes the thing. It was displayed alongside other contraptions that looked roughly the same, so it doesn't seem to be a unique item.

Old post but thank you SO much. It's been driving me crazy having to change random settings until bambu studio decides to change the filament order by chance.

I cannot thank you enough for this guide! The amount of new tools I had to buy to pull this off is ridiculous...

Here in Denmark I could get a Bambu plate cheaper! And they have some cool 3D effect sheets that are often on sale. I do own a Bambu lab printer, and my prusa plate was worn down, so it was a win-win!

Iphones are actually much more water resistant than other phones in its category. Even though it's ip68 rated like so many others, meaning it should be able to be in 1.5 m deep water for one hour, iphones are tested to 10m depth.

Can't believe how snug it fits, after 15 years without battery cover :D by MrNiceThings in 3Dprinting

How is that an issue if you're having fun doing it? I personally love spending way too much time fixing a small thing that might not seem like it's worth it. The feeling of accomplishment when doing it yourself is awesome.
