Don’t forget to look at reviews. They’re your firsthand experience if you haven’t tested that brand before

Should I do it for the sake of science? I have noticed it’s severely weaker than PLA but for small parts like this or a penis dinosaur, it’s perfect

Why would your rainbow pla be weaker than regular pla?

I honestly no idea. It looks great! It’s very silky but I’d say layer adhesion (compared to my usual settings on PLA) is weaker. It’s not like it’ll just come apart, but it does take a lot less strength for me to separate
Do you have a link for your gold pla? I’ve come to realize I really do want it

I don’t, I bought in a local shop. But it’s made by Anet so I imagine you’ll have to find where there’s a authorized vendor close to you

I have 3 main brands i switch between depending on the price…and i have 3 different profiles in Cura for them. I don’t want to waste time dialing in a different filament so i stick to those 3 now.
Now resin…i got no fucking clue and I’ve been stumbling in the dark, but my on again off again telephone boyfriend @SeanHacker has been teaching me!

How does resin compare in terms of difficulty and tweaking
4 Likes
So far the 2 main things i’ve had to tweak is the exposure for the first layer and how i position things on the build plate.
The first resin i got was something like 60s exposure for the first layer, and the one i’m using now works perfectly at 50

like all of us i have limited bandwidth so i’ve chosen to focus my efforts here. super stoked that @glyphiks @Zwak @Abusfullofnuns @BillGordon and @Andrew have the charity in them to allow me to tag along and make wildly unreasonable requests about the forum. thanks for taking the time to ask.

It’s never been about that. FreeSK8 forum was a necessary step for FreeSK8 to take as it prepares to eventually become an official non-profit organisation. So it would have happened regardless of anything that occurred at any other forum.

All my fucks are being bundled with Freesk8 for the time being. I believe strongly in the project and the benefits it will have for the community as a whole.
Very much agree with what Wan and Bill have said above.

Alrighty dudes. Say no more. It was quite the lamenting post and I had heard as much but kinda wanted it from the horses mouth.
That’s the last I’ll ask about it.
@Wandagoner what’s this educational program?
