@MakeAnything3D Here’s an astrolabicon spotted last week in a tourist hotspot - Split, Croatia. From what I could gather, these sell for 5€ and the packaging doesn’t say much more than “made in china” :(
Is that the Torshn “design”? Are they getting cloned themselves now?! :D

The good part of the story is that the young buyer loved it! So kudos for the design :)
And I got to tell them a bit about the original astrolabicon, showed how crazily the sphericon rolls and pointed them to
devinmontes.com/ for even cooler games :)

The PrintABlok building brick system is an awesome added value for your 3D printer!
For the sake of all the kids around you, go back the BattleMecha robot kits today on
kickstarter.com/projects/3dp… :)
Check it out on printablok.com/ if you missed the kickstarter. ^^

Today is also your chance to get the entire collection of premium sets at a bargain price!
That’s dozens of models from the Mechs, Beasts, Skyforce and
BattleMecha series, all the printabloks that the @3DPProfessor ever created!

Arguably, one of the better things to happen in the world of 3D printing & design this past year has been good people like @hellgy & @clawfire getting into the hobby, yay! :)

Current family photo of our house plants
Bespoke #3Dprinted planters made to measure for each plant to better hide the original pots
Thanks to @TinkerCAD #CodeBlocks it is trivial to change a few numbers (variables) and generate a differently sized planter for the next plant :)

This is something I've always said... the drivers are designed to suppress the back feeding without damage... engineers aren't stupid, you know. #oldwivestale

Here's the result of a few weeks of work. The Ultimate Upgrade Guide for any 3D printer owner.
It should answer a lot of questions and I'm sure you will learn something new by reading it completely.

Enjoy!

On this day 12 years ago was the first self replication of any RepRap 3D printer.
Happy Birthday RepRap!
Here's a picture from that day with @adrianbowyer and @VikOlliver and the parent and child RepRap printers.

Do you ever wonder how many planets / ecosystems died because one of their species misbehaved?
We’re pretty “sure” that there are other forms of life out there... well, what about other forms of stupidity ? ;)
