All better now!!! :)

Yup, we'll add it to our todo list!

Is it just the process of highlighting the text, or having the menu missing. Often it's the latter... setting here: If that isn't the issue, is there any system where it is working, or is it across the board? Testing myself here. I did notice above that the highlighted text isn't...

Congrats! Keep us posted!

Cool print... but definitely a frustrating situation!

I had an idea for a practical little crate for organizing project supplies in my garage: make the base and all four walls print flat, then assemble them with filament instead of hinges. I could not find quite what I had in mind, so I tried using AI as a hands-on design collaborator. The...

Just wanted to update that I'm loving my A1-Mini! It does about 95% of what I need, and she's it very well!

I gave into temptation and bought 10 rolls of Elegoo Rapid PLA Plus Filament Black: https://us.elegoo.com/products/rapid-pla-plus-filament-1-75mm-black-10kg-1?variant=44907612340405 Reviews online were pretty good and the price was phenomenal. I've been relatively happy with their filament...

WOW, I'm surprised I haven't posted to this thread in forever! Today's print = Sprinkler timer cover: This timer has a screen and rubber buttons sitting in the super hot / UV sun all day. I figured I should protect it. So, I modeled this up and it fits perfectly! I printed it out of PLA and...

Basically this. LOL!

Agreed, most likely a bad batch. I'll admit that I have some rolls of PLA that are pretty old (still in the vac sealed and in temp-controlled cabinet)... but I'm sure that some of them were brittle relatively soon after I got them.

Sorry @Tony4597 I didn't see your reply. yes, it's completely acting like that where it snaps when bent. ... But I am almost positive it's not moisture related, at least not in a way that I can fix. I have done tremendously long dehydration cycles and processes with this filament and it...

Wow, those are beautiful! I completely understand your hesitation to not take the mower to them. My other half is also considerably green-fingered! Here's some of her flower work:
