Dali was so good.

Garden. They are pretty easy and straightforward, I’d recommend.
I got a thornless variety, which I guess helps.

Geez, Lemmy is popping off today

Thanks for this post

I tend to agree with you on most points.
However, some other people have taken a more cautious approach. I think currently the censuses is leaning toward, best not to.

Good point on the mold.

I see your point about parts breaking apart being a concern.
How familiar are you with TPU? It’s quite durable and robust. It’s a plastic currently used in many dog toys. Between that and Part of me feels like TPU being a soft plastic that would minimize risk.

AI response for the heck of it.


TPU.
ABS is a beautiful filament, but it’s somewhat similar to PLA in its properties.
TPU I fun to play with and its flexibility offers different properties than PLA

(Discussion) what are thoughts about using a 3D printer to make TPU dog toys?
I have been looking at least prototyping in TPU 3D printed dog toys.

Why?

Interesting, so best practice is to increase layer height for PETG. Seems good to know

How it’s looking from a distance:

Complete with fuzzy skin to give it the staticky effect

Thank you

I might have to try some of this buildtak.

If I said I want to 3D my posterior and have a custom fitting chair would you believe me? For some things I think a bigger printer makes sense.
Also that, and it can mount 4 heads to print on a m^2 build area. There a couple of different reasons I’d like the giga to be in a solid state. Least of all the ability to crank out a lot of smaller parts on repeat is strategically important to me.
That’s not to say your argument doesn’t have merit. I’ve been finding that a lot of time can be saved splitting the parts and printing on smaller printers. The giga is a nice to have but not needed per se.

I think you’re right on the suggestion. It’s not enclosed and in a garage. That seems a good place to start.
Thank you.
I think I am running pla at 215 or 220. The clogging is coming from filament extrusion build up after the print fails to get adhesion. There’s no sensors to detect failed prints, like on a Bambu.
Also what’s ringing?

(Troubleshooting) Does anyone have an elegoo giga?


I have an giga and it’s a bit finicky, I am hoping to troubleshoot. A Bambu it is not. I am a bit disappointed, because for bigger prints the printer is much less reliable so far than hoped. I had desired to be doing much more furniture design prototyping and projects than troubleshooting.
My primary issues are bed adhesion (even after good bed leveling), and layer adhesion. The first, leads to a quick failed print and sometimes a more catastrophic clog of the nozzle. The second, yields a bad quality print that has warping.
Right now I can sort of print PLA with a lot of brims (no brims, no joy) but my desired state is to print PETG, but the issues are proving too severe to get any success there.
I’ve done temperature towers, and am running hotter with a 0.6mm nozzle. I have textured pei print beds.
Anyone have any suggestions?
