So I just scouted the fairgrounds. A massive tree limb is blocking the main access point from Gate 1. Power seems to be on, vending machines are lit. #mrrf @MidwestRRfest

Well, I didn’t have tornado warning on my bingo card but the power outage we’re having is just like being home in GA. 🤪 #mrrf #mrrf2026 @MidwestRRfest

The fun toy is on the way, check your PM for STL printed parts code. @TheEdgeofTeck
MOG Kit designed by Casadio, interesting? Guess you want to build it?

I woke up to find that 3D Printing Nerd just surpassed 700,000 subscribers. I know subscribers don’t matter as much as they used to, and could be considered a vanity number - BUT, seeing this was still quite emotional. Thank you all! ❤️

First print with the new filament is a continuing prototype of a new LED diffuser! I may not need LED’s after all, it’s so bright! This is some epic filament! Works perfectly with the blue and purple spotlights in my studio. More project details soon! @Polymaker_3D
Been wanting to try this @Polymaker_3D Halloween Neon for a minute and I finally have an project idea to put it to use! Maybe we crack it open tonight on our twitch livestream ? 🤔

Reposting this from yesterday. Do you have a FlashForge AD5 series printer? How are you liking this crap that they just pushed on us?
Hey there @ff3dprinters I'm really disappointed by the so called updates that are kind of being forced on us. Not only are you now using Bambulab's fork of Prusa/Orca Slicer (and kept in some of the nasty network bits... I bet you didn't even notice), but that slicer change is not ready for release. It's got more bugs than a fly strip over a garbage can. I'll highlight two of the worst offenders: 1. MacOS dark mode causes all sorts of problems, not the least of which is not seeing values in ANY of the fields when viewing slicing parameters. If you click into a field and highlight the text you can see it, but otherwise no. Also text is invisible in several of the modals and message boxes. Dark mode's been with us for a while now, there's no reason for this to be occuring. 2. When slicing models for multicolor there is a massive glitch that is carrying over painted-in color into unrelated layers. I've tried multiple orientations, different coloring methods, etc., but the problem persists. See the two images for examples of what I should see (From FlashForge Orca Slicer) and what's happening with Flash Studio. Up until now, I've been pretty happy with the machine. This latest BS is making me question whether I'd ever consider another @ff3dprinters machine again.

And hey @ff3dprinters why are you trying have me connect to Bambu Cloud? I don't currently own, nor do I ever intend to own, a Bambulab printer.

Confused by the latest 3D printing legislation? This is the premier video breaking down the FACTS clearly and objectively, without the fearmongering. Hear directly from someone (@David_Tobin) actively involved on the front lines advocating for the 3D printing community, along with practical information on how you can help support the effort. @3D_Musketeers youtube.com/live/uSDlp27610M…
