It can be a little funky. At 0.3 layer height, with two layers you can get a good solid color and then that 3rd layer can come in pretty cleanly as an overhang.
It does have me wanting to get an MMU for full flat letters though. And a 0.2mm nozzle for stem and legend details.

For the stems, I honestly got lucky. It's just a 0.4mm nozzle with Arachne perimeters, and it just sorta...worked?
Multicolor is just a layer swap at the start of later 3. No MMU or AMS

Agreed! I love how opaque Hatchbox's yellow is!

The real win is the price reduction and the idea of not needing to buy large inventory stock as much as possible.
Trade-off, certainly, but I'm pretty pleased with these.

For the numpad case? Afraid not since it's something I sell and I've been burned a few too many times for trying to be open for others making things :/

Been eyeing an upgrade from my pair of i3 Mk3S+s. Need to measure the space I have, but these might be my next 3d printers...

Keep meaning to make it to one of these but my schedule NEVER lines up properly, it seems!
Thanks for letting me live it vicariously! :D

We need better/smaller options for circular displays, but yeah, that could be super fun!

Yeah, a baby coin cell or replacement air pod battery could be pretty killer!

Doesn't feel like that much until I actually start tabulating it all and having to go back through pictures.
A year is a long time, so here's to another year of doing cool new things!

- My first in-person vending event at the Lynnwood light rail Grand Opening!
- Updated my Pixel Watch stand to have a weighted option as well as the ability to use a fully connected band (if you're okay to turn it sideways)

- Injection molding some little pendants to be used as recycled 3D print earrings. Similar to the sheet metal design, the mold is a resin 3d print.
- An Apple Watch charging stand that actually looks decent

- Replicating a sheet metal design as an injection molded design using shredded 3D Prints (it kinda mostly worked)
