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!
Super cool, I’m gunna show the missus. She loves stuff like this. We’re renting, but I hope someday I can set her up with a whole workshop and she can tinker away all day and night. Because it’s what she loves most (as seen above). Any cool resources you’d like to point us towards? I’ll pass them on and maybe we can figure out some kinda “micro” studio we could implement in our current situation. I miss being in a major city, because I miss creation-spaces. While I am absolutely awful at this stuff (as previously stated) I am really good with pen and paper stuff. Stuff I can get my hands on. And loved hanging with with folks like you while just doodling away in spaces like that =)
I also rent, running a 3 printer business from my closet and it works!
I learned everything from forums like this and YouTube.
These are some favorites:
Fav CAD educator - Desktop Makes
Hilarious crafting couple - Evan & Katelyn
Funny + knowledgeable 3D print channel - Nathan Builds Robots
Quirky Aussie 3D print guy - Makers Muse

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 =)!
Sorry I’m a little slow rn honestly. You want ideas for modular magsafe stuff?
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!
If you guys ever have a project you want to do but don’t know how to go about it send me a message! You don’t need a local community when you have all of us on here!
Absolutely love this! Do you know if there’s some kind of friend-esq thing on here? Else you know what I will do, I will just message you and put you in the logs and so if I need to reach out I can. Thank you!
Honestly don’t know, I looked at your profile and it has an option for adding you as a favorite so I did that. I don’t know what it means though lol
I completely ditched Reddit so I’ll be on here a bunch I have so many projects I want to share
