This is a mix of all sorts of PLA. Oven at 200°C. It doesn't entirely self level at ths temperature, so after it cools I trim it and flip over to the other side like this to melt again.

@dalias that both looks so cool and is a great reuse!

@dalias that's so pretty ​​

@dalias can you run over it with a rolling pin while it's soft?
Show threadCassandrich10h ago
@webhat Yes, I think I should try something like that. Need a rolling pin that can handle the temperature and that won't stick, tho.

@dalias maybe with grease paper? 🤷
Show threadwebhat10h ago
@dalias thinking about i, when the kids make perlerbead art, I put an encyclopedia on top to stop it from curling as it cools

@webhat I've got parchment paper rated for over 200°C.

@dalias Dedicated oven?
Show threadCassandrich11h ago
@lispi314 No, there's nothing left behind and nothing really harmful to begin with, but I max the ventilation fan and open windows anyway.

@dalias That looks like unicorn vomit. It hasn't had the time to be properly digested into a beautiful pastel rainbow.

@dalias (a) would love to see the outcome; (b) how bad does it smell?
Show threadCassandrich9h ago
@richardgunther It smells deliciously sweet like PLA usually does. 😂
