Developer, tinkerer, loving everything creative. Trying to deal with only being able to pursue a few passions at a time.
A fav from me == like/congrats/+1
My current obsessions : solo roleplaying (dnd, Shadowrun and Traveller), digital drawing/sculpting, 3d printing, and I'm starting to dip my toes in electronics.

Eureka moment yesterday night, after starting reading D-Bus documentation for the bazillionth time and rolling my eyes again at how overengineered it is: actually, all I need is POSIX signals and a SQLite database. SQLite with its WAL mode and high concurrency support nowadays can handle IPC easy-peasy. #C #SQLite #POSIX
I've been trying PVA for supports for my minis on my #H2D. On the paper, it was perfect: water soluble filament, so that I can remove the support without damaging the print. Perfect. In reality:
- printing PLA on top of PVA often failed
- could not successfully print PVA < 0.2mm layer height… what's the point for minis? 
- that thing is literally glue, and it keeps clogging the nozzle.
Gladly, I found (on reddit) a great solution: PETG supports! Prints great, detaches easily.
