I made a magsafe mount in black for my Kia and I didn’t like the layer lines on the curved parts, but it gave me the idea to try using wood

I have a 3D Chameleon MMU so I added color changes randomly throughout between two shades of brown. One is wood, one is PLA.

It honestly came out way better than I even expected!

If anyone wants the STL I can provide it!

Shut the front door! My wifey just popped in and I showed her your work and she got green with envy and for sure is starting to have a think about how to create some kind of modular setup. Any recommendations for something small form then if you’re working out of a closet? (I am also laughing because I once was a closet -> computer person and you do what you gotta do in life =P!)

Gunna pass those guys on and thanks a slew for everything even if we leave it at this =)!

You mean for storing the printers and stuff? Most use IKEA side tables or those metal racks if they have many. I use assorted short tables, very makeshift.

It’s an absolute disaster zone right now because I have so many concurrent projects 😂

Ah, well a) love the model setup and those ikea tables are god’s gift to this world (at least when pertaining to renters). And b) I meant more so models cause we’re starting from the bottom =)!
