I like printing those flexi Dino’s.

It’s for my niece. Honest. Grown men don’t play with Dino’s….

    They're a great test for new filaments... the ones I keep stockpiling.

    My favorite is Gunther’s steggo.

    To print. My favorite to print! (“Curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal! Ahahahah!”)

    Although for testing new filaments, I usually go with a small egg-shaped spiral printed glue pot (or paint pot or small parts holders,) small things, I feel like spiral prints show flaws, as well as layer adhesion issues.

    the color changing with temperature plastics are a good choice, my niece likes the purple to pink one

    my niece likes the sparkly stuff. That you know... destroys nozzles.

    Ah the things we uncles go through, huh?

    Your niece will love it if you 'scale to print volume' (in prusa & super slicer)

    Did an articulated dragon on an ender 5 plus. It is over 4 foot long. My daughter loves it

    that... would make a dragon that's larger than the niece is.

    I shouldn't do that. It'll give her... ideas.

    (who am I kidding, this is what uncles are made for! the only way this could possibly get any better is if there's LEDs and a pi pico.)
