This. I started with FDM at my computer desk in my bedroom. The noise is one thing, but I moved to resin and took the whole lab downstairs. Even in that space, without proper ventilation? I tried it once, and immediately put up the vent system I had on hand.
Simply put? It’s a non-zero risk that isn’t worth it. Hell, there might even be someone here that’s close enough to print stuff for you until you can set something up yourself. 🙌🏽
Bunchacunts.
The simple fact that entire legit shops are destroyed by this “provision” without any consequences for the platform, much less the fraudsters, is my main gripe with the state of ecommerce currently. Etsy is a festering pucker of a “marketplace” to begin with (originally invented to showcase handmade crafts, but somehow has never offered a made-to-order inventory system, is notorious for auto-refunds in full to the point of supporting scammers’ various antics, and skews search results visibility to leverage paid placement despite claiming the exact opposite, etc.), but every single one of those pus-munchers that exploit the criminally lazy SoP of that “marketplace” deserves a n2 pencil to the carotid. 🤷🏼♂️
Airtight storage bins + silica beads = win.
To be fair, Etsy’s automated systems will take down listings without vetting the takedown claim, as long as the fields in said claim are filled out with non-blatantly false info. There’s little to no fact-checking on the backend and fraudulent takedowns are a known method by scammers to get competing (legit?) shops discredited.
On one hand, yes, use the DMCA takedown request form. On the other, fuck Etsy sideways with a busted rake.
Ha! That’s rich! I quit before I had to deal with that guy on screen? Win, apparently. 🙌🏽
That’s why it’s next to the window: the spools are on the roof.
To say nothing of the fine-tuned resin as well as the curing process. 🤯
Choose your resin carefully and add 10-20% Tenacious, FTW.
While I’m also impressed at LEGO for that reason among others, printing in resin is the only way to make proxies even remotely viable — even if such will be fractions of a millimeter off from originals. 🤘🏽
Perfection is an illusion.
Resin, 100%, is your solution. Not FDM.
Does he do Rocket Man, though?
Is weed legal where you are? Seems plentiful.
Where’s 32nd St?
Wait. Gen V got good? I noped when it was consistently Orange County in depth and MTV’s Real World in manufactured edge. 🤷🏼♂️
Yes?
