I used my 3D printer to 3D print a replacement part for my 3D printer.

It's giving me an inception vibes๐Ÿ˜†

Will this Functional 3D Printed Part Hold 3kg? 3D Printer's Spool Holder Upgrade?

Functional Print Friday is one of my favourite YT channels. Perhaps the only improvement would be if he switched to #freecad ๐Ÿ˜‰.

This particular video is a fantastic example of the utility of a 3D printer. A custom tool, perfectly adequate for the purpose, printed from 'humble' PLA. Side note: PLA used to be the cheapest filament but these days I'm finding e.g. Sunlu PETG cheaper / same price ๐Ÿคท๐Ÿผโ€โ™‚๏ธ.

printed a new carriage earlier today for a printer that started out life as a #TwoTrees #SP5 using ultrafuse paht-cf15.

i'm finding i need to take frequent breaks -- for my own well-being -- from the process of packing up the house for an upcoming in-town move. that gives me plenty of opportunities to use a #3dPrinter for something at which it excels: rapidly physically iterating a bracket design to test the form/fit/function.

A flexible material of my car key buttons failed after some years of usage.

10 minutes worth of #3dprinting fixed this. I love that.

Didnโ€™t even have to use CAD, since this seems a common issue and someone already published a model.๐Ÿ‘๐Ÿป
