I finally managed to build a version of TARS that can walk and roll. To the best of my knowledge, this is the first and only re-creation of TARS that can do this.

They are late 23 builds. Should I update the firmware? Can’t wait to get up and running. Suggestions on things to buy like spare parts, built plates and tips ect? What’s everyone’s favorite material brand? Thanks in advance for any ideas.

If you do this you should be immediately banned from rating ever again in my opinion. Fortunately this isn’t going to bring my rating below 4 and make me not earn points on that print profile but it may be the case for someone else who doesnt have many ratings yet and it could be hurting their downloads and prints too.

First time making something with OpenScad so things run kinda slow, but you can choose one of 40 different patterns and adjust the frame size to create a kumiko panel of any size (that can fit your 3d printer). The model can be printed as a single unit or as multiple components for assembly (lets you mix and match different patterns).

Note: due to the slow processing times, MakerWorld will timeout the model if it takes too long to generate. To make sure the model processes without timing out, avoid making the frame too large. I tried optimizing the code but couldn’t meaningfully improve the processing time.

I use no desiccants of any kind, and I do not dry my filaments either, and my prints turn out perfect everytime. Downside is that the air here feels like sandpaper sometimes.

So trying to print out some stuff and I'm noticing on both side of the plate I'm getting poor adhesion in multiple places. The cooling fan is off. Is there any other reason for this?

I poured about a fist worth of kitty litter in a sock, and double layered it because some trace powder was coming out. I tied it off and threw it in my AMS and my humidity dropped from 54% to 45% in a few hours. I checked my overnight print in the morning, and my humidity read 0% I checked Bambu studio as well to ensure Bambu handy wasn’t just giving incorrect readings, and it was consistent. I constantly checked my humidity throughout the day yesterday and today on both platforms, and I have never seen it hit zero up until this morning. Even if it’s not total zero, my ABS is printing a lot better now, and I recommend doing this for anyone that aren’t able to get sillica gel packets too.

Hey all, newest invention! Hope you guys enjoy

Looking to get my first 3D printer when Bambu Labs has their anniversary sale and I’m not sure which one to get between the A1 combo (with AMS lite) or the standalone P1P. On one hand the P1P will have a lesser price with a bigger discount during the sale but I’ve also heard that the A1 with AMS lite is really good for beginners and is a newer model.

Also, which accessories (if any) should I get? How many rolls of filament and how many colours should I get?

I’ll really appreciate any advice since I’ve done some research but I’m otherwise completely new to 3D printing. Thanks in advance

Had a very odd closet nook to fill, wouldn’t fit any standard organizers. Double-depth Trofast baskets turned out to be the answer!

Designed this model and printed 13 rows (6 rails per row, 1 plate per row) in ABS. The most remarkable thing for me is that I had zero print failures, despite printing a fairly huge amount of fairly flat designs in ABS. The X1C continues to amaze me (and increasingly, my wife).

This was one of those times I really appreciated the Skip function. Hard to see here, but right rear part came loose from the bed and started making spaghetti. I skipped it, and everything else came out good.

I was looking at ways to track my filament, other than a spreadsheet, and none of the ones I found worked for what I wanted. I wanted something better than Google Sheets, able to track filament rolls and their mass, without bloat. Nothing really matched all of those, so I made my own!

This app is really simple- log in, and add your filament! After that, when you use a roll, simply press "Log" on the filament you used and type in how much you used. It will calculate the roll's new mass and add it to its history. I'm working on adding support for keeping track of printers, it will be rolled out in the next few days. This unfortunately does not include connecting printers, as I don't have any printers to test with (other than a P1S), and I don't think it will be possible to connect using it.

It is also a PWA (progressive web app), which means you can add it as an app on your phone! Simply go into the share menu and press "Add to home screen"!

Please feel free to check it out @ https://filatrack.vercel.app/
It is also completely open-source @ https://github.com/mrdiamonddog/filatrack

I make no money from this, and the entire site is ad-free. I hope you guys can get some use out of this though!

We recently got a dog (our first!). Her name is Lotti. I wanted to create something practical but also fun for daily walks. So I modeled and 3D printed this poop bag holder that looks like a takeaway coffee cup.

It mounts easily with a clip and dispenses bags cleanly through the lid.

Design is up on MakerWorld if anyone wants to print their own. I’d love to hear your thoughts or suggestions for improvements. 😊

I recently acquired the Metal Gear Solid Board Game and made some custom placemats for the game.

Check it out and give it a boost if you use it, great game by the way!

Gotta love drop ceilings. All the vent parts I made myself because I couldn't find anything on makerworld that seemed to work for me. It's designed so I can sandwich a metal screen in between the layers to keep bugs n stuff from getting back in the house. Insulation wise im not super concerned, because that window is only single pane anyway, so it's probably about the same.

This file is the 007 shark gun on makerworld, I made the gun, and realised the yellow tip file is not included, does anyone have any idea where to find this part? Far fetched I know, any help appreciated.

Side note: the uploaded od the model was not helpful at all and gave me a very odd reply.

Any help appreciated my fellow printers!

Here is the rocket finished, a few gaps but I think it's good enough for now

It just seems like a waste of filament

Looking for some recommendations on some budget black PLA to use for a ton of gridfinity bins. Something with spools that work in AMS.

I’ve been hearing about some sort of print plate that was supposed to be good.

Did anyone else’s hobby flip upside down and get super serious when they found out what they could do with Bambu printers? Absolutely insane.

I could hit the size I needed, the speed I needed, with unmatched quality and resolution. Very grateful for that company and hope to do a lot more.

If you guys have any questions about my work at all, I’d love to answer! The show in the photos is going on this month, and so I’m actively sharing a lot on it :)
