First day of Thanksgiving Break and we're getting our Dinosaur Blocks Kit Cards ready to ship for the Xmas Print Drive. Not as many prints to send this year, but thrilled I was able to contribute a design! Happy Holidays! 🦕🎄🦖 See comments too. STLs at @cults3d.bsky.social. @loyalmoses.bsky.social

Hey, Printed Solid! Did you slip a few extra grams onto my spool? I set up "spool join" on my XL last night, but I didn't need it! My 5th print of these trays that PrusaSlicer said would be 213.40 g of Jessie PLA, all on a new spool and there is still some left over. Sweet! @printedsolid.bsky.social

Coming soon . . . @cults3d.bsky.social

Another teacher and I received a small grant from our school's parent foundation for 3D printing to support our math classes. Thinking class sets for hands on for students and larger models for display. When choosing filament, it was Printed Solid Jessie PLA all the way! @printedsolid.bsky.social

🎉 New Post: Saddle Surfaces! These were inspired by some of my Calculus III lessons. I'm excited to share them with my students! I particularly like the contour map surfaces and will probably use the technique again more. STLs at Cults3D: cults3d.com/:3698133 @cults3d.bsky.social

Getting another post ready for Cults3D . . . @cults3d.bsky.social

My "Double Integral" models are now at Cults3D. These are terrific for my Calculus III class, and the added bonus is that my younger students started asking questions about higher-order mathematics as well! Over 60 models included. Link in my bio and below in comments. @cults3d.bsky.social

My "Football Trophies" have been popular lately! 'Tis the season! 🏈🏆 Available at Cults3D: cults3d.com/:1603143 @cults3d.bsky.social

New post! 🎉 Exponential Curves! They can be used for logarithmic functions too. These have worked really well in class with my students. Now available at Cults3D in 4 versions and with STL files for fast class set printing. PDF blank axes also included. @cults3d.bsky.social cults3d.com/:3678190

New post! 🦕 Dinosaur Wall Art! 🦖 My Dinosaur Blocks are so cute that I wanted a way to display them bigger! Easy to rescale, these have a lot of possibilities. Now available at Cults3D: cults3d.com/:3674542 Printed on @prusa3d.com XL. @cults3d.bsky.social

Oh, Yeah! This will be fantastic for front-of-the-class demos. And I printed it in PETG! Not my usual material at all. Printed Solid Cyan PETG. Model soon to Cults3D. See details in original post below. @printedsolid.bsky.social @cults3d.bsky.social

My printed exponential curves worked well in my lesson! Many students (though not all) thought it helped to better visualize what was going on as we transformed the functions. Students commented they liked "hands-on" approach. Curves w/ bases 2, 3, e, 10 coming soon to Cults3D. @cults3d.bsky.social

A new variation... Dino Wall Art! 🦕🦖 Less than 1 hour per print. Coming soon to Cults3D. @cults3d.bsky.social

Last minute idea for today's lesson: Exponential Functions. Each one is the curve y = 2^x. I made a class set for myself and each of the other Math 1 Honors teachers. Maybe e^x is next, or a longer tail toward the asymptote... 🤔 @printedsolid.bsky.social Cyan. @sliceworx.com plate essential!

Woah! Atomic Filament "Bug Eyes" and Printed Solid "Yellow Bird." This kit card was printed with three filament swaps at key heights. I think I like the bottom side better than the top! 🦕🦖 @printedsolid.bsky.social @cults3d.bsky.social STLs at Cults3D. Link in my bio.

I'm so happy with how my Dinosaur Kit Card came together when printed on my @prusa3d.com XL! Check out the flip side in the comments below. 🦕🦖 Kit Card for the LM Christmas Print Drive. @loyalmoses.bsky.social

Read about the charity project and how @abbymath.bsky.social has been printing and designing models for the Christmas Community Print Drive project for 5 years in a row. Check the project's impressive statistics. #Christmas #3dprinting

I updated my 3DWithUs article for the 2025 Christmas Print Drive. There will be so many happy kids with these new designs! 😊 @loyalmoses.bsky.social @maxfunkner.bsky.social @3dwithus.bsky.social 3dwithus.com/christmas-co...

🦕 New post! 🦖 These are so fun! My kids love playing with them. Easy to print and designed for filament swaps. "Dinosaur Blocks" now available at Cults3D. STLs: cults3d.com/en/3d-model/... @cults3d.bsky.social

Coming soon to Cults3D . . . 🦕🦖 @cults3d.bsky.social

Monkeying around with some math! 🐒😉

Get ready for Halloween! Thanks for the shoutout, 3DWithUs! 🎃👻🪦☠️🐈‍⬛🎃 @3dwithus.bsky.social

Giving up for now, but open to food for thought... Trying PETG for support interface layers on XL. Issue seems the PETG won't stick to the PLA in the wipe tower. It make globs that then stick up and get caught in the nozzles, etc. The support itself seems to be printing fine. 🤷‍♀️

Getting my MATH on!

Intended as a 360 x 360 print to clean a stain on the plate, but I couldn't let such a nice top surface go unused. 🤔 My son chose to make it a sign for the Haunted House at his school Halloween Carnival! 🎃 Interesting to watch XL startup process on it for printing the words.

Fancy new build plate or a two-layer blank canvas? 🤔

I love my 100% and 200% Flexi-Rex prints, but... 400% is AWESOME!🦖 Sliceworx Old Glory Red on Prusa3D XL. @sliceworx.com @prusa3d.com

If you know, you know . . . Coming soon to Cults3D. Designed with Wolfram Mathematica. @cults3d.bsky.social @wolframresearch.bsky.social

After watching an 8-minute Bonkers Benchy (whoa!), I decided to start with one of my favorites on the new MK4S. My "Cup of Cubes" looks great in LDO Purple PLA! 💜 STL at Cults3D. Link in my bio. @cults3d.bsky.social @ldojason.bsky.social

Woohoo! A Prusa MK4S to add to my lineup! Here we go . . . @prusa3d.com

This Air Hockey Table from Print Kits works so well! My son and I had fun printing it and then he put it all together. He is SO excited to get the October kit and to find out what it is! @print-kits.bsky.social printkits.com/pages/air-ho...

For the success of BOTH of my overnight prints, I thank my Sliceworx build plates! These turned out great and I had no worries letting them run into the night with so many small parts. @sliceworx.com

My son plans to be Ghostface for Halloween and he wanted to print a graphic knife. It came out so well! It has the design on the flip side too. 👻

A terrific pairing! Sliceworx Old Glory Blue Matte PLA on a Sliceworx build plate. The photos make it look lighter blue than what I see IRL. The photo of the spool is a closer match. My son wanted this 200% dragon as a gift for his teacher. She will love it! 💙🐉 @sliceworx.com

I love this LDO Motors Purple PLA! It looks fantastic as a 200% dragon. It is more shiny than I expected based on what I saw on the spool. Thanks, Jason! Nice seeing you at the @makerfaireoc.com too! 💜🐉 @ldojason.bsky.social

Hello! I fired up my 3D printers after summer travels and recent weeks of back-to-school hustle. Finding my Printed Solid prize PLA from the @positron3d.com #TheTrevorProject Charity Stream was an added bonus to the day! Jessie Neon Pink is a new color for me. Fun! 💛🩷💙 @printedsolid.bsky.social

Are you ready for the #4thofJuly?! STL at Cults3D. cults3d.com/:3061514 @cults3d.bsky.social

Perfect accent for 4th of July festivities! 🎇🌭🎆 My son and I designed these "Light Stackers" for his school project in 2022. The one with the stars looks great in red, white, and blue! #3DPrinting Exclusively at Cults3D: cults3d.com/:720227 @cults3d.bsky.social

The numbers are in, in total, we raised $7,115 for @trevorproject.bsky.social Thank you to EVERYONE for making this possible! 🧡 🏳️‍🌈

Coming soon to Cults3D. A little teaser . . . @cults3d.bsky.social

Oh, my! I have to admit I was a little stressed at the end of this print. Not a large one, but I was using Polymaker Cappuccino gradient filament and never would have been able to match with a mid-print filament refill. @polymaker.bsky.social

My new "Ellipse Elephant" art is now available exclusively at Cults3D! I had a vision for it using these Polymaker pastel colors and am so pleased with the results. These will make great gifts! STL files: cults3d.com/:3052469 @cults3d.bsky.social @polymaker.bsky.social

I'm so happy with how my "Ellipse Elephant" hanging art came together. 😊 Inspired by the two new baby girls in our extended family, I designed it for printing small and large with a frame and hanging hole built right into the model. Now at Cults3D. 🐘 cults3d.com/:3052469 @cults3d.bsky.social
