Melting 3D Printed eReader cases on my deck.
(programming.dev)
I made a 3d printable eReader case for my wife. Wanted to test what would happen if we water logged them and left them in the sun to dry.
Two of the cases are made from PLA while the other is made from PETG. They are all held together by thread and leather.
The test here is to see if moving from PLA to PETG was the right move since the last time I did this, the case turned into a banana.
My eventual plan once I've finished with my testing is to sell these cases and make their designs available for others to print.
Yeah, I haven’t bitten the bullet and tried abs yet, mostly because I’m not ready to setup ventilation and better temp control.
Asa seems to be another option, but I’ve been having too much fun printing TPU parts to bother.
ahhh, TPU is addictive isn't it. So squishy and flexy. I've even made gaskets out of it for an ATV- not good ones, because it fails to seal when too cold, but gaskets that still work nonetheless.
