Next time you should try using the Ph'nglui mglw'nafh Cthulhu R'lyeh wgah'nagl fhtagn setting.

I tried that, it didn't work out. It took me weeks to remove all the tentacles from the printer. 🤨

It's also annoying having to wipe all the blood from your eyes and make sure it doesn't drip on the bed because that messes with adhesion.

Let's not talk about that. It was almost better the Nyarlatothep slicer, you would end up forgetting most of what have happened duting the print time but the print was perfect.... ok tainted in blood and sometimes made of human flesh, but hey! No lay line at all.

Very cute. Do you plan on priming it and painting it later?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

I already did that. I used car primer and wet sandpaper to clean the print line.
