No, I think you will find that in fact I don't.

Just 3d print one and grab it while it's fresh and warm.

I realize this is a joke…

But don’t do this. Really. The fdm layers are unhygienic, and there’s a not-insignificant risk of things snapping off and leading to awkward emergency room visits.

A better solution is printing a 2 part mold and casting silicone.

I was really impressed by the lulzbot manual mentioning this! Its also important to consider that most 3d prints can be sensitive to water unless sealed too.

I’m just gonna assume some one printed a butplug, had it snap off leading to said emergency room visit and they tried to sue lulzbot.

Who is this someone you're talking about, FuglyDuck ?

[-] fruitycoder@sh.itjust.works 3 points 5 months ago

Idk lulzbit are also just super consumer freindly out fit (I think are still one the only 3d printer that are FSF Respect Your Freedoms certified).

glad to hear from the 3d printed sex toy experts in the house

wont the layers transfer to the silicone?

You can process the inside to be smooth (sanding, priming. If you have a solvent - acetone for abs, as an example. And mold release.)

Even just using a filler/primer should be enough
