People who own cats and 3D printers -- how?

Does the moving tool-head not drive them crazy?

A clear enclosure so they can watch but not touch.

Mine just watches. She does love eating plastic, just not PLA 🤣

Lmao. There was an asklemmy some time ago about what would you ask your cat given the chance it could understand you.

I wanna know what PLA tastes like vs. PETg vs. ABS...

I’ve a friend who had to get them a heated cat cave otherwise preheating led to naps.

Now the cat watches with the same fascination we all share.

I keep the printer in the room the cat isn't allowed in

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

You mean the room the cat is only in when you’re gone?

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

My cats don't even pay attention. Maybe it's the enclosure.

What? No, I wouldn’t try to catch it… again. 3 of my 9 lives was enough to learn that less… what’s that?
