IT field tech transitioning to Industrial Design. I end up fixing everyone’s tech, especially 3D printers. I post my current 3D print or project and upload to TikTok just for fun. Username pronounced “Joe-scuh-loan” TT - https://www.tiktok.com/@joescalon

Spent the morning practicing some sculpting instead of my normal CAD work. Currently printing the results after some changes my daughter wanted. Every capybara needs boba I guess. #3dprinting
I saw someone else post it’s also on Xiaomi crowdfunding site as well. Has been delayed for a while now.
“3D Boaty” but right side down. Just tuning a @positron3d.com printer using @polymaker.bsky.social Army Blue. “3D Boaty” model by Depep1 on printables.
Here is something more belt printer style. Example 45x45 cube. Haven't put anything on it, just made it up in CAD. Would be very annoying to print on a regular printer and have everything fit right.

I would say it’s not as strong as polylite, but is stronger than polyterra. The print finish is very nice like polyterra. Have yet to combine it with other filaments, but I should run a flow test to see the limits.
Having used TT for years, I haven’t seen any “control” of the algo just pure automation based on engagement. When people make claims without showing evidence, we use to call this a conspiracy. I guess their meta stocks were taking too much of a hit.
I would say TikTok is better than meta, X, YT shorts, and the algo actual works and shows content/creators you actually engage with. As for “data” it’s a public website and app uses US servers unlike so many other Chinese apps that aren’t in this ban.
From the collection I saw, maybe half are exclusives and just add on props, others marked as remix. Did report one obvious remix “for tpu”, that was marked exclusive.
Dragon claw dice tower by @sassiecat3d.bsky.social printed in @polymaker.bsky.social Panchroma CoPe.
No idea what that is but looks pretty cool.
Yes this brings to mind politics, but not one side vs another, but elites in government vs common people. With basically a conspiracy theory and no public evidence, it was a bipartisan ban, because the government can’t control what people share or see, unlike meta and alphabet.
Looks like production is going well.
On discord someone saw the update notes and said that would push them to buy a Core One. My response, “Sometimes the best advertisement is your competition.”
New benchmark model. Uploaded a model to test bed adhesion, print-in-place, print tolerances, and flexy model overhangs. Great way to double check your filament settings will work with a new brand of filament. www.printables.com/model/114802... #3dprinting

My 3D printers working hard. I don’t play favorites with brands, I just use what works.
Evolution of my “DYO Wall light box” model on @thangs3d.bsky.social. Instead of embedding an SVG, I used a backlit Hueforge. Printed on my Prusa MK4S.
Want to make your own custom backlit wall art? I just uploaded a new model with a guide to @thangs3d.bsky.social. Requires a 208mm or larger print bed, up to 2 meter LED strip, only 2 color changes, and bring your own image/SVG(comes with starter SVGs). than.gs/m/1237808?im... #3dprinting #wallart

Forgot to share another project I did for my nephew for Christmas. Wildstyle not-Nerf blaster using a variety of @printedsolid.bsky.social Elixir and PETG. #3dprinting.
