This is my first non test print that I will actually have use for! It is a holder/stand for the Halo Infinite Rockstar collectibles!

Hi Zenghilios! Great to see your enthusiasm with your first proper print, but considering how long prints can take, you'd be better off containing the updates to perhaps one post - where you can share all the different stages of the print, once it has finished. This keeps all the relevant information in one post, without members having to scroll through a number of posts to see a print update.

looks pretty cool! good luck with the print! <3

I’m sorry, I thought I was replying to the one post under the thread I made.

Edit: I misinterpreted what you meant. I’ll make sure to keep everything contained into one single post. Sorry about that!

Thank you! It already failed unfortunately

Final update (going to keep all future print updates contained to one post after this):

Day 4. To say this was hard is a massive understatement. My baby fell victim to a homicidal layer shift. I had to put her to rest at 69%. You did your best, you beautiful failure.

Did a different print to try different surfaces and types of settings. Needed a headphone stand for my desk so I printed this real quick. Turned out amazing!

u printed the wrong way.. the hook will break off.. u need to print it laying on the side

There might be a bit of weakness in the clamp, as there are vertically stacked layers, but I think the hook would be fine as the layers are running horizontally still. Only one way to find out!

How can you tell I printed the wrong way? Also, by the laying side, do you just mean the side that we are looking at?

 

[Zenghilios]

I made this door-stopper the other day as well!…then my dog chewed it up

It was too small anyways, so I scaled it up 50% and works perfectly. Out of site from my puppy of course.

i can tell from the layer lines. the side we are looking at on the picture has to lay on the printbed

Well, can 100% confirm because I woke up to a loud sound this morning and what do you know. I’ll reprint with it on its side! Thank you for the advice!

I never stopped to think about how the weight of the headphones would pull apart the layers considering they are horizontally printed lines. I’ll try rotating, then printing again

Physics + gravity 101 haha
