Good -- There's a whole community that's crazy about them. They just had their third annual gathering, "Mold Fest" in September.

Bad -- I've become a little obsessed about the damn things and started collecting molds (which are what the plastic sculpts are called) this last summer. So yeah... just what I need. More shit to wrap my ADHD brain around. 🤪

@mattyxb My dude. They are an absolute addiction. It seems silly but there's something truly magical about the whole process.

I remember watching the wall come down in Berlin on this day in 1989.
It was exciting, I knew I was living through history, we felt so much hope, then and for t least a few years that followed.
I learned then how powerful hope is for making life feel better, we need more of it.

Yeah yeah, I'm crying again, I blame old age.

On this day in 1989 we witnessed something amazing, the toppling of the Berlin Wall. I was 18 and never thought I'd ever see it happen.

Yeah, sure Dingus — we totally got a set of vintage Saarinen Tulip chairs just for the cats 🤪

@repkord Happy Birthday young padawan! 18’s not far away 🤣

Not gonna lie, I found the posts by this "actual licensed engineer" a tad tedious. I mean sure, the problems he points out aren't wrong, but we're not exactly building a full size car chassis or even a wheelchair for a full-size adult human either.

I suspect that he hasn't seen the Tiny Bikes, nor has seen Ivan Miranda's various 3d printed conveyances. He's letting book knowledge be his guide rather than empirical testing. While I appreciate his pointing out potential pitfalls, he should have done a bit more digging before popping off and looking both foolish and insufferable.

Hello 3D Printing Friends. It's looking like Jim (@TheEdgeofTeck) has lost control of his channel. Dear @YouTube -- What can he do to get it back? Whomever took his channel over is now broadcasting a college football game.

@59stonethrower @Barnacules Elon is the exact opposite of treasure. He’s an embarrassment who really shouldn’t be anywhere near the levers of power. YMMV

[Andrew Rogers AKA The Silversunbeam @drewrog]

@TheSeanConnelly @HaleyforMI Hoping her memory is at least as good as a goldfish’s 🤪🤣

@elianarose66 It’s a fekkin Tsunami!

[Andrew Rogers AKA The Silversunbeam @drewrog]

@PatrickLebel9 @johnbluecraft @DIYMaker_Johan @Prusa3D @BondtechAB Pretty much. We're all spoiled for choice at this point.
