I'd recommend putting them in the tank?Well got 2, not sure what to do now ...
You should send them to me so I can inspect....Well got 2, not sure what to do now ...
I could have got a Cali sunset too but I don't want to end up like @BroccoliFarmer , well then again I wouldn't mind at all. He has a killer nem tank!!!You should send them to me so I can inspect....
In the tank you say? Free roaming you say?I'd recommend putting them in the tank?
First lesson of 3D printing.... Print multiple copies at once... Kids don't like waiting... Now printing 3 Pikachus....lol. the 3D printer is great for making kid toys! I print white pla figurines and my kids paint em as an activity.
I've had issues with layer adhesion with multiple prints at a time. I think they were cooling too much. 3 pikachus, probably not an isssue. 30 urchin hats, the crowns got brittle.First lesson of 3D printing.... Print multiple copies at once... Kids don't like waiting... Now printing 3 Pikachus....
Not sure how much it will help but I'd like to enclose the printer. Just not going to pay for the nice expensive creality one. Probably be a diy job.I've had issues with layer adhesion with multiple prints at a time.

In the winter and with petg for sure would help. I might try to order something that ships in that foil bubble wrap. I could probably buy just the wrap, but that's n fun. I could have been having issues that day because of the rain too.Not sure how much it will help but I'd like to enclose the printer. Just not going to pay for the nice expensive creality one.

Also, solid idea making the first prints go to the kids. This was another one of my early prints.
Rose and stem by patwik
Resized and added the function to screw the rose onto the stem. Support required when printing the stem. Raft recommended when printing the rose.www.thingiverse.com
I ditched a bunch last purge. sent more as padding for a light i sold. maybe I'll cut styro boxes...Yeah I got a bunch of that in the basement! something something reef tank animal orders online....
@Projects with Sam enclosed his. Have you checked out his build thread?Not sure how much it will help but I'd like to enclose the printer. Just not going to pay for the nice expensive creality one. Probably be a diy job.
No I haven't yet, I'll will though.@Projects with Sam enclosed his. Have you checked out his build thread?
I'll see if I can find it later today and link it up for you.
It's probably buried, but Sam may still have pictures.@Projects with Sam enclosed his. Have you checked out his build thread?

It makes a huge difference. absolutely necessary for PETG.Not sure how much it will help but I'd like to enclose the printer. Just not going to pay for the nice expensive creality one. Probably be a diy job.
Not a bad idea, I have led strips coming from China for lights. Should brighten it up inside.It makes a huge difference. absolutely necessary for PETG.
If doing a single printer, I'd get the PVC extruded ceiling tiles for the back and sides and acrylic for the door.
3D print the standoffs. There are many kits for it on Thingiverse.
My daughter kept asking for stuff... finally I was like what do you need all this stuff for.... apparently she was selling it in school...Not a bad idea, I have led strips coming from China for lights. Should brighten it up inside.
I also got the Sonic pad but haven't hooked it up yet. I like tinkering but don't have time to use a raspberry pi or anything.
I've printed a whole army of rabbits, they keep multiplying. kids requests keep rolling in.
Need to get a nem nest test print done one night.
