Beginning the Voron 2, serial 0 build that was donated by RCF to the Sanjay Mortimer Foundation and will be raffled off at SMRRF. Starting in about 1 hour! youtube.com/live/6ppoBoK...

Not long until the Lunar New Year festivities begin. 2026 is The Year of the Horse and this year I thought I'd combine a quilling style with my signature strings. The design prints without supports and can be printed on a single colour printer.😊 stls and 3mf: makerworld.com/en/models/22...

wikipedia turns 25 today! the last unenshittified major website! backbone of online info! triumph of humanity! powered by urge of unpaid randos to correct each other! somehow mostly reliable! "good thing wikipedia works in practice, because it sure doesn't work in theory" - old wiki adage

Congratulations to @adrianbowyer.bsky.social for being the keynote speaker of #SMRRF2026 in the UK! Hope to catch the talk IRL! #3DPrinting #3DP #RepRap #RRF #maker

Vik Olliver's #RepRap Micron has done a #3Dprint with layers! The cylinder with the big blob* at the top is 500μm in diameter and 10 layers high. Details: blog.reprap.org/2025/11/fina... reprap.org/wiki/RepRapM... --- * First print... Cut Vik some slack...

If you’re a 3D printing designer you should be upset about this. Companies can slip through a bogus design patent on your model and block you from distributing or monetizing it. This would take away one of the only options for fighting that that’s even remotely affordable

SOS!! Share far and wide! The US Patent Office is working to make bad patents untouchable and that’s a problem for open source hardware! Read through EFF statement and get your comments in ASAP to help prevent this www.eff.org/deeplinks/20...

I might not be smiling but trust me im very happy

there are no llms online today, everything is faceplanted through cloudflare, which makes it a perfect day to slip out the worst possible updates, rug-pulls, and files am i right? qualcomm arduino just pushed a privacy policy and terms qualcomm-rewrite TODAY...

DasFilament announced a recycled PETG filament made from waste of Film production. This rPETG has the same properties of their standard PETG and is specifically designed to have unique colour changes. Available in spools and refill. ➡️ www.dasfilament.de/filament-ref... #3dprinting #dasfilament

On the way to Formnext, it's going to be an interesting show: some big announcements and launches are expected! See you there?

Kiri:Moto Release 4.4.0 is here, it's huge, it's just does one (thousand) thing(s). Mission Accomplished. End of line. Enjoy.

I'm pleased to share the schematic AND Kicad project for Pebble 2 Duo - useful if you are have fun hacking! github.com/coredevices/...

A bit more work on a new string technique. This time using it to create a glowing effect on my heart strings model. #Ilove3dprinting

Okay, for the folks who asked: here's the majority AI view, writing up the reasonable, thoughtful view on AI that the vast majority of people in tech hold, that gets overshadowed by the bluster and hype of the tycoons trying to shill their nonsense. anildash.com/2025/10/17/t... Please share!

I've always thought that the need for a fancy paper transport in printers was unnecessarily complicated and fault prone. Why not just have a roll and a guillotine? Now, here comes: www.crowdsupply.com/open-tools/o...

My friend @ivanmiranda.com took our kayak adventure a step further and printed a kayak in less than 24 hours, on a treadmill! You should definitely watch the video! youtu.be/9DpMkYDCq9Y?...

I've been looking at how infill percentage can create contrast. This vase is created in two parts the clear part is printed with 0% infill and the green with 100% infill. The clear filament completely encases the green. I really like the slightly blurry effect it creates. files link in comments

This is my Dolphin Infill Bowl, I used 30% tri-hexagon infill on the body (no walls or top and bottom layers) to create the circles for the dolphins to jump in front of, and I set the dolphin infill to 100% to make them stand out. 🐬🐬🐬 stls and 3mfs: than.gs/m/1364239

My friend @properprinting.pro made a video about printing a Kayak in one go and is even more epic than you can imagine so go watch! youtu.be/QuZW259aIn0?...

We’re looking at a 3D printer... that’s 3D printed... out of METAL! 😲 This closed loop printer is completely generative designed, has 5 axes, and it’s SO COOL! Come check out one of the coolest displays at @rmrrf.bsky.social! Link here: youtu.be/fw1R92IkRLQ #RMRRF25 #5AxisPrinter #Metal3DPrinter

Just casually testing a 3D printed kayak in front of an audience for the first time that @ivanmiranda.com‬ and I printed on a treadmill. Thanks @prusa3d.com for making this possible! This has become one of my fondest memories and I'm very happy that I can share this with you! youtu.be/QuZW259aIn0

17 years ago today. The first self-replication by a #RepRap #3Dprinter - the start of the #3Dprinting revolution.

3.6.0 Stable release is out! This is a very significant step forward for RepRapFirmware, DuetSoftwareFramwork and DuetWebControl. More details here: forum.duet3d.com/topic/38126/... 🎉🎉🎉.🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉.

Here's the original question! Any other women in #electronics wanna jump in? Got any other relevant starter packs? (I'd love to see!)

I had the best time at Rocky Mountain RepRap Festival 2025. Thank you to @creality3d.bsky.social for sponsoring me and providing a lovely Hi Combo printer for my table! Thank you so much if you came to visit me. I had so many great chats! #RMRRF #Creality3DP #3dprintbunny

Thank you to all of our sponsors, exhibitors, makers, attendees, staff and volunteers for making this years Rocky Mountain RepRap Festival another incredible event. It was amazing, enjoyable and went by way too fast! We had over 5,300 general attendees! (including returns)

My new (3d printed) toroid winding tool works great! Now I no longer have to count, my fingers don’t get muscle cramps and they look tidy.

Doing the #rmrrf thing. If you are at the con, hanging out with friends and talking electromagnets. Love to talk to folks.

A demo today @rmrrf.bsky.social of the #Open5X voron V0 mod by @brendonbuilds.bsky.social printing the gcode they provided of the Dino model using 5 axis.

All setup @rmrrf.bsky.social and looking forward to meeting so many amazing people!

I'm putting a tariff on the word "tariff"! Hooked up an arcade dispenser to give me a ticket every time that god-forsaken word shows up on my computer screen. 20 tickets == 1 beer

<movie trailer voice> From the creators of Cocoa Press, we bring you Print Kits. We ship you the hardware, you 3D print the rest. Subscribe to our monthly project box at @rmrrf.bsky.social this weekend in Loveland Colorado and get a free air hockey kit 😀😀😀 printkits.com

Hello Colorado! @rmrrf.bsky.social
