I saw someone else post it’s also on Xiaomi crowdfunding site as well. Has been delayed for a while now.

Nice, thanks!

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.

What kind of theme? What should be the stand out feature on it for a belt printer, 90 degree overhang? I uploaded a more bed adhesion/flexy style test print. But have never tried it on a belt printer. www.printables.com/model/114802...

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.

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.”

The filament by West3D I believe.

I really want to do this with some of the transformer models I have. Would have to figure out the pins though.

Looks great!

I try to stay within my cooling limit. Only upgrade left for me is to find a better 5015 fan, might be able to shave off another minute.

Oof video quality was crushed, oh well.

My only Black Friday purchase so far has been 3D Gloop and it was full price, might buy some filament but that’s about it.

Is this purge amount after using “long retract” as well? I’ve dramatically cut down my purge with long retracts on.
comment in response to post
I thought they were working on a new open standard, which is honestly what every “open source” printer from major brands has been the last couple years, it’s like 90% open. For price isn’t it just taking mk4 price bracket and repairable, private, and 0.9 steppers?

I love the people that give a low star rating because they had bed adhesion issues. Comments goes, couldn’t get model to stick to bed 3 stars.
comment in response to post
Is this similar to falling behind at your job because they keep having you do other people’s jobs?
comment in response to post
Crazy they actually made one.
