Wait wait wait. You’ve got a goal to 3D optical lenses? Nice!

I’d probably start with a resin 3D printer though. It’s seems the precision would be beneficial for an optical lenses?

I don’t know about any clear resins though. I don’t have a resin printer. It’s a very PPE oriented printing process, that didn’t suit when I tried it.

Oh! Thanks for this. It seems like something worth looking into

White ABS is a classic

Microcenter ABS is pretty nice. In general they do some good stuff.

Of course you run exhaust fans! I run Bambi’s with enclosures, I don’t have an exhaust fan setup yet.

I often wonder about fumes and cancer risks.

Yes in my experience, ABS is an easier print.

For ASA, I think maybe Sainsmart. They also do bad tpu, so maybe source was the problem.

How do you handle fumes with ASA? they are much worse than ABS, imo.

Hey! I was thinking about doing this.

Any useful info, should o give it a go?

Essentially. I was growing oregano, basil, flowers, and thyme in others.

Printed right side up. Everything was achieved via support setting optimization, and heated support removal where necessary (nose and lip in particular).

PLA holds up alright, but it’s gets brittle. There are just better choices.

Interesting point about the ABS, it appears to be holding up very good, but I’ll monitor it overtime.

ABS is nice, PETG good, ASA hard to print, PLA holds up(but don’t recommend).

Viewed from a historical perspective, it’s hard to see how the non-incombent didn’t have a really good advantage.

Hindsight can always be 20/20, and think a Buttigieg/Kelly ticket would have done a bit better. Buttigieg has been in charge of infrastructure, which I believe has been well run. He’s from the rust belt, and is more familiar with the working class vs the candidate with California Progressive with a DA background.

Ultimately though, I think the fault lies with the Democratic Party hijacking the primary process.

… you were saying?

Damn. Cuts deep

This is a good take, I liken it to iodine in salt.

However, I worry about the effects of fluoride in groundwater. I don’t know if I should be too concerned about that per se, but I hear some plants hate it and that and it says in the ground for like forever.

I sure hope not. Harris is a sure fire way to a Trump presidency.

How about Mark Kelly?

It should end with Riker and Deanna on the holodeck
