Re: 3D printing advice appreciated :)

Agree with all of the above. Are you using Cura or Slic3r? If Cura I can share my print profile. Your bed looks pretty level, but may be a little too close (resulting in underextrusion like Holydouhnut said though usually you'll get little blobs where it jets out randomly) or a little too far (so th...

Re: Game Boy Zero case CAD files

How much would cost to get these made in good plastic in China like the original cases? I mean, it would be hella cool to get this made with mold casting (or whatever it is called) and get printed (like embedded in the case, not just regular ink) a nice "Sudomod's Game Boy Zero" instead of the Nint...

Re: Custom Orange-Pi Portable

Alright, I got my 3D printer up and running and managed to shoot out a couple trial runs in PLA. I ran into an issue and then promptly broke my hotend nozzle, so I won't be able to update until this weekend.
