  • I have made a total of $100 CAD over the course of… 5 months by selling a $10 plastic tool for strollers on Facebook marketplace. These were printed at my local library before I ever owned my own printer.

    Now that I do own my own printer, I’ve just been enjoying printing very long prints that I couldn’t at the library.

    All that said, there are niche markets where you can fill a need and you can earn some slush fund money without taking on much stress.



  • I recently picked up a Neptune 3 Pro as my first printer. Went through the leveling and saw similar to you. Even after the Z height calibration… there are issues.

    A print with a small footprint works fine, but when something covers most of the x axis I would find that the left side of the bed would print well and the right side of the bed would have gaps in the first layer.

    Installed klipper, tried out it’s bed mesh calibration and increased the testing points to 12x12… Still similar issue. I’ll be sending it back.
