To test that out, I have a 10 kg spool of Push Plastic PLA a coworker dropped off during the pandemic for some prints. I didn't have any sort of spool holder for something that big, so it sat unused f...

Re: Is it time to fold up the tent?

Yes, you guys make a good point....its hard for forums to compete with the socials.

I'm active on those, Reddit and such.

Clever design on this filament dryer!

Check it out...
