If you want it to get worse just change it from a hobby to a business!

OpenSCAD is great for programmers because you write code to generate 3D objects. If you love Python there are ways to write Python that then generates OpenSCAD code, so that may be worth looking into.

That’s really strange. I run 6 Ender-3 S1 printers at work and tend to only level them if there is an issue or we change build plates… maybe once a month at most, and we print a lot. I did go through the process of leveling with the knobs and sliding a piece of paper under the nozzle to get it just right, but when they print well, all is good.

The 1983 film War Games is what taught me it was okay to give up…

I’ve been playing this on my Anbernic RG35XX recently and I’m terrible at it but it’s still a lot of fun.

Very cool! Adafruit posted a foot pedal project that had a potentiometer but I definitely like to see other options.

Looked them up and “Physna is a geometric search engine designed to increase efficiency with CAD design and manufacturing” so yeah, I don’t think they come from the 3D printing community and personally I think I’ll choose to not support them.

Printables is also free of ads… Does Thingiverse still have ads?

I make money, but I produce entire products that use a 3D printed enclosure along with electronic components and code that I write. Just trying to sell something you printed seems like a terrible business plan.

Who owns Thangs?

I think it’s the pain of receiving high medical bills which keeps me (and most other US citizens) from doing fun/silly/stupid/risky things…

I got an Anbernic RG35XX just so I could play Tetris with a Game Boy like experience.
