Life sized #Flareon is underway. I did the back legs, ears and part of the head on my @bambulabglobal.bsky.social fleet, the rest will be done on the @sovol.bsky.social. #sunlu recycled pla ($99 for 10 1kg rolls) is gonna be used for the whole thing, about 7.2kg. Surprisingly good stuff. #3Dprinting

I had endless problems with under extrusion AGAIN on my @sovol.bsky.social SV08. Tried flow calibrations with five different filaments and a new nozzle and nothing worked. Finally had the thought to go back to basics and tried a new Capricorn tube, fixed it immediately. Gotta keep that on hand now.

7.2kg total for this beast of a print. There goes most of my recent bundle order lol

Been some time since I started a life sized Pokemon, time to get started on my next favorite one in the Eevee line. :)

Heading back to the best comic con in Delware this August, Blue Hen Comic Con! bluehencomiccon.com

Making a new investment move. I have an appointment scheduled to have a 2" hitch installed on my 2023 Kona and I'm picking up this carrier basket today. It'll basically hold my totes that normally take up my entire interior so I can have space to carry life sized pokemon or other larger projects.

#sunlu sent me a pair of printed shoe insoles when I ordered a 10-pack of their recycled pla which I'm eager to try. They make great resin as it is, maybe this'll be good too. #3Dprinting

Well it took nearly four grand in print hours but one of my @bambulabglobal.bsky.social P1P's finally needed a new nozzle, treated it to a full hardened steel hot end upgrade to celebrate. 😁

The #1 thing people have been asking me lately is if I sell online. I really need to get that set up now, it's the one thing keeping me from doing this full time.

I've been recruited. 😜

Spending my birthday today here at Happy Valley Comic Con having a blast seeing old friends and making new ones. 😁

Love having food vendors nearby. 😜

Sorry I've been quiet, heavily reloading for Happy Valley Comic Con this weekend hopefully I'll see ya there! #3Dprinting #3dprinted #3dprint #bambu @bambulabglobal.bsky.social @sovol.bsky.social #cosplay #destiny #warhammer40k #Helldivers2

Today's project is finally going smoothly. Taking the donor controlls and reapplying to the printed one now, then to solder them all together and eventually put the neck on. Hope to finish it today.

Huge success at Stellar Con as I usually do, stopped off at my favorite deli afterwords, bought myself a, Pikachu plush that has floppy ears. I'm calling it a business expense because I can. 😜

Stellar Con is underway!

Last minute boomstick from @destinythegame.bungie.net for Stellar Con today. Model is by Nikko Industries, one of my favorites personally. 😉 #3Dprinting #3dprinted #3dprint #destiny #guns #bambu @bambulabglobal.bsky.social

Super excited I got into this one. See ya in July, Richmond! www.cosplayworldrichmond.com

Gonna call it a night, got three more props done, a handful more to go before next weekend at Stellar Con. Tons of Pokemon stuff finished, so many goodies I plan to bring. I honestly can't wait. 😁 #3Dprinting #3dprinted #3dprint #starwars #fallout #guns #scifi #gaming #cosplay

One of my best prints yet. 🐱 @sovol.bsky.social #3Dprinting #cat #catsofinstagram #catlover #tortiecats

Let me know if you're tired of seeing pokeball Switch game container prints. 😜 I just love experimenting with multicolor filament and it's perfect for it, plus this leftover Eryone green/black works really nicely with it. #3Dprinting #3dprinted #3dprint #Pokemon #Nintendo #nintendoswitch

Heavily requested and finally back in stock for Stellar Con next weekend, the Premier Ball Switch game container. I forgot how cool these particular ones are. ;) Printed in @elegoo.bsky.social PLA on my Bambu fleet. #3dprint #3Dprinting #3Dprinted #bambu #pokémon #nintendoswitch #pokeball

Incoming Les Paul build, using CHITU Systems Conjure silk gold/black PLA for the body and standard PETG for the bridge/strings section. Printing it all at once on the @sovol.bsky.social SV08, files can be found on @printables.bsky.social. #3Dprinting

Been silent lately but my fleet hasn't. Building up for next weeks show which is always one of my favorites (and most profitable). 😁 @bambulabglobal.bsky.social #3Dprinting

Coming back for my second year! www.fairfaxcomiccon.com
