I made a magsafe mount in black for my Kia and I didn’t like the layer lines on the curved parts, but it gave me the idea to try using wood

I have a 3D Chameleon MMU so I added color changes randomly throughout between two shades of brown. One is wood, one is PLA.

It honestly came out way better than I even expected!

If anyone wants the STL I can provide it!

      Shut the front door! My wifey just popped in and I showed her your work and she got green with envy and for sure is starting to have a think about how to create some kind of modular setup. Any recommendations for something small form then if you’re working out of a closet? (I am also laughing because I once was a closet -> computer person and you do what you gotta do in life =P!)

      Gunna pass those guys on and thanks a slew for everything even if we leave it at this =)!

        You mean for storing the printers and stuff? Most use IKEA side tables or those metal racks if they have many. I use assorted short tables, very makeshift.

        It’s an absolute disaster zone right now because I have so many concurrent projects 😂

          Ah, well a) love the model setup and those ikea tables are god’s gift to this world (at least when pertaining to renters). And b) I meant more so models cause we’re starting from the bottom =)!

              Hahaha apologies by that I mean I know absolutely nothing about printing myself and we currently have zero setup because we’ve been on the move so much in our own lives. But I would love to figure out a way to setup something where I could get her even a small setup so she could tinker around. I just don’t even know where to start as in - what machine would I even get her that would be small yet functional enough to be enjoyable =)! But apologies, I talk like a 12 year old so I probably didn’t specify that. Hahaha!

              Also how the hey do you post images here? Cause I tried a couple of times but it never worked @_@!!

                I get a little picture icon in a bar above my keyboard when replying, but this is on sync for Lemmy on Android so I’m not sure.

                  Ah, yeah I don’t have that and I’m on PieFed. I tried what I thought would work, but it never seems to. Let me try again:

                  Shut the front door. I tried several times, no dice - this one? Come on!! Hahahaha!
