Trialing cereal boxes instead of vacuum bags for filament storage. I can’t get any vacuum bags to hold a seal for more than a couple uses, which makes their cost significantly higher than it would initially seem.
These are a bit higher up front investment ($4 per box, 60g filament, 4 608 bearings, +hygrometers if you’d like) but, if I added the ptfe fitting, I can print from them and they will hopefully last a lot longer.
I’m not in love with this design—it’s a little filament wasteful and not ideal to print—but it works until I design my own.
What’s the best filament dryer on the market?
I have an Eibos Easdry which does a good enough job on drying but doesn’t fit spools with spool or AMS weights and is side loading, which is a pain point in my setup.
I’m looking at the Polyphemus at the moment.
It's just super cool to be a #programmer! Being able to build basically any software you want and need is a gift.
I've put together a health dashboard, synced from Apple Health. And that will be just the beginning.
@flexion well, you can smoothen #Filament prints by exposing parts to #acetone #vapour or even post-processing them otherwise with existing tools...
#ZackFreedman made a good video re: what filaments to consider.
Worst case, thick coating of #PlastiDip and classic "sanding and polishing" may be the way to go...
@flexion Yeah....
As for #prototyping the general dimensions and look, #filament is also way cheaper so one can iron-out the design then test-print segments in a smol resin before getting in touch with a fabricator to deal with it.
Even the #Creality #CR10S5 is a hard sell despite being just an oversized #filament printer that'll slowly sqeeze out "fancy hot glue" at it's end.
@flexion Also #filament (+ paint) is way easier to fabricate and modify as it doesn't require a huge-ass workshop to deal with nasty chemicals...
#Resin isn't nice when it comes to getting screwposts melted into the plastic which one may want as plastic clips are shit and I can't fathom why anyone would want them on a device they'll have to open sooner or later...
Shout-out to Atomic Filament, who has been my #3Dprinting #filament supplier for years. They'll be donating filament so that I can continue printing the BottleFlow portable showers.
If you need 3D printing filaments, their products are incredible and they're also awesome people!

I could imagine something like a "#PipePost" / "pneumatic tube" like system to become ubiquitous - and more #standardization re: #containers for stuff due to #ResourceScarcity and the need to #UseLonger, #Repair and #Recycle way "harder"...
